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.
