This is the word for all the people made dumb
This is the word for those without tongue
A song for the rabble who chatter like birds
A song for the small ones not gifted with words
Cry for those who never get heard
Speak for those people who are small and afraid
Empty and lost alone in their days
Who pray for release from society's mad ways
They are the people the leaders ignore
However they try they face a locked door
Who can't rock the boat they just swim to survive
And voting's a joke when you're barely alive
And you know that everything's in vain
You can only cry out or try and complain
So hard to get by without negativity
It's hard to stand tall with no shred of dignity
Born to the poor and poorer in spirit
A life is called empty when there's nothing to fill it
We all need something of value that glistens
The poor all have media that talks never listens
This is a word for the masses' admittal
That gross inequality leaves some folk with little
As the rich hog the trough and preach "selfishness first"
Others will die from starvation and thirst
This is a word you leaders find strange
We don't need your politics just wholehearted change
We don't need your "head-buts" give us your hearts
The world needs more loving and everyone must start
