There’s a man in a tower made of silver and glass
Counting his fortune while the poor scrape past
He’s sipping on vintage, eating off gold
While a mother on welfare feels bitter and cold
There’s the middle-class father who’s breaking his back
Paycheck to paycheck, always under attack
Taxes and prices keep climbing up high
While the rich get the write-offs and wave them goodbye
It’s the same old world, just a different game
Some get the money, some shoulder the blame
Luck or hard labor, the truth stays the same
We’re all trying to live while they’re rigging the game
There’s a hard-working woman who cleans every floor
Rises at dawn, leaves her dreams at the door
While a gambler wins big with one lucky hand
Buys himself cars and a house on demand
There’s a genius in debt who can’t get a start
Crafting solutions, a beautiful heart
While the fool with connections, born into wealth
Buys all the power to serve only himself
It’s the same old world, just a different game
Some get the money, some shoulder the blame
Luck or hard labor, the truth stays the same
We’re all trying to live while they’re rigging the game
But the value of people ain’t measured in gold
Not in the titles or things that they hold
It’s how they treat others when no one can see
That’s the wealth that defines you and me
It’s the same old world, just a different game
Some get the money, some shoulder the blame
Luck or hard labor, the truth stays the same
We’re all trying to live while they’re rigging the game
So raise up your voice for the ones left behind
The quiet, the humble, the true and the kind
We may not be wealthy, but we’ll always know
It’s the heart of the people that makes the world grow
