History Repeats

In the aftermath of the first world war Society began to shift The divide of the classes thus far Began to feel a rift. When the service class began to rise Aristocracy began to fail The workers spoke up, please share the prize Society began to wail. Villagers began to demand their place Discontent was the norm And into the future they both did race As a middle class was born. In these modern times are we to repeat The great divide again Will we gather in mobs, take to the street Is that what it takes to win? Or will we demand with our voices once more For progress to begin Not with burning or looting, as once before Destruction would be a sin! If you disagree, let your voice be heard With votes and a pen Apathy is silent, with never a word Speak up, help democracy win.
