Watching the world go through the motions So many different notions Running through the mind So many of us feel left behind Trying to survive on what we find Which is not much The leaders seem out of touch Through the lips of a news host Unsure on who to toast Or maybe who should they roast We all matter, they cry We try Kissing our money good by Who are we to believe We are looking for some relief But all we can do is grieve We the people of the real everyday We are the ones that live in the political gray Over looked by the blind eye Struggling to get by Searching for our own dream So out of reach it does seem Give us a break So much of us the world does take We spend our life Held down by this strife Trying so hard to fly But barely getting by Forgotten while you live Asking for more than you can give All designed to keep you down It is in the paperwork we drown Following some clown Who does nothing for those in need We are just here to breed Giving them future voters to ignore The zombies voting on the floor Need tossed out the door Give us a voice Give us a choice The a chance to live A simple gift to give I believe that when one does die That if in life we really did try Maybe then, we will finally get our chance to fly
