The Wealthy Lie

To exploit our folks in a capitalist machine, To encourage the rich and the poor. To make the majority always bow down to the few, To fight the unwinnable war. We live in an antagonist inequitable state, A state that encourages lasting torment. Where the few at the top expect the rest of the crowd, To give them their money, like a rent. Selling trickle down policy, they believe their own lie, That the wealthy will pay for the broke. Not realising that’s see through and never has worked, That their cash isn’t meant for us folk. If the rich want to stay rich and not have a war, They’ll need to make healthy, safe and free. For all of the citizens, in every small and big town, They’ll need to make a state that’s fed and happy.
