People of Power
Let's talk about royals, religious leaders and rich celebs,
You know the people they have influence and power
Sat there judging us from their ivory tower.
It's time for the truth the world needs to be told
If they really cared they wouldn't stockpile their gold.
All over TV telling you to give because it's kind
You're doing their job, you're paying for their wars, open your mind.
It's only the poor that ever seem to give
To have nothing we know what its like to live.
With a new horror or starving child, they play on your heart
Only they don't tell you those things they did start.
To change the world, they have the power
They don't really care they're in their ivory tower.
They're happy with the status quo
Their way of life needs to go.
The world can provide for everything that we need
We cannot last with the elites filthy greed.
We need a new world we need a change
They've made it feel very strange.
