Chasm of Rich and Poor

[Verse 1] Stacks rise high while the rest stay low, Wealth divides, opportunities don’t flow. Dreams turn hollow, hope fades away, In a system built to keep us in dismay. Bills piling up, but the paychecks thin, Each step forward feels like a battle to win. Rich hands tighten the grip on control, While the streets scream for a chance at a soul. Chorus The gap is growing, the divide so wide, Hard to stand when you’re left on the side. Inequality ignites the fight, One world of excess, one world of flight. [Verse 2] Jobs are scarce, but debts run deep, Families scraping by, dreams that never sleep. From city blocks to rural grounds, Poverty’s a weight that drags us down. Power plays, but we’re trapped in the schemes, Chasing scraps while the wealthy reap dreams. No justice for the silent masses, Only the privileged see the passes. Chorus The gap is growing, the divide so wide, Hard to stand when you’re left on the side. Inequality ignites the fight, One world of excess, one world of flight. [Bridge] The system’s built to keep us separate, While we hustle, they accumulate. A cycle of struggle, a constant strain, But we’ll rise despite the pain. Outro So we fight, we speak, we won’t be erased, For a world where no one feels misplaced. The gap may stretch, but we’ll stand tall, Demanding equity for us all.
