"Bout time we changed a few things, We a slave to the bank and we only wanna buy new shoes, The way that we think, We can do anything if we really wanna put our minds to it, American dream, Is a pyramid scheme, And feels out of reach when its hard and the times are tough but change starts with us, yup yup, We all want freedom, yeah to be who we be, I don't wanna be afraid when I speak, To say what I'm feeling, Yeah together we strong but divided never been so weak, It's time we get even, Yeah Yeah, But really what I mean is, Is change I can feel it"--Asher Roth

Class War by Danny K
Its a revolution about to start,
Masses rising up from just a spark,
Without work, without food to eat, doing what they can with no security...net
Some are College graduates that were ready to start a career,
Others are teachers or lawyers with years of experience who now live in fear,
Neither knowing if or when they will find employment,
Just trying to live life with some little enjoyment,
And some are people who've worked hard their entire lives, that retire to live off social security and never have enough to survive,
You ask me what is the 99%?
While the few elites possess more than they can consume,
Unwilling to fathom an inch of compassion to give to those who have none,
Controlling multi billion dollar corporations yet there is massive amounts of debt and poverty that plague a nation,
You ask me what is the 1%?
Class wars, across shores, reshapes nations, and empowers people to strive for more,
Arab Springs and U.S. Falls,
Yet will either ever see true equality?
See I don't know answer but I'm sure that it's there,
If anyone is ever curious and willing to care,
Class wars, 99% vs. 1% of the populous, fighting for an equal share,
What side are you going to be on?
