In Our Own Little Bubbles
We live in our own little bubble
Dealing with our own little troubles,
Unaware of the fact that many share our own problems,
Blind to the fact that they are smaller than we believe
That we all share similar stories,
That we can overcome through unity
Standing against authority who impose these issues on you and me,
Driving us into debt and financial insecurity
With the low paid jobs for those who work in the caring communities,
Meanwhile others are homeless and many are starving
But in our little bubble nothing is as dear to you and me
As our own little predicament
But the truth is those above look down on us,
From wealthy jobs founded around money and greed
And while forcing us down on our knees,
Are laughing at the likes of you and me
Sipping champagne doing as they please,
Knowing that we will not unite and get wise and put up a fight
And solve the problems that cause our troubles,
Like popping our little bubbles
And bringing about equality,
To better the lives of both you and me.
