As long as those who rule the earth
Succeed to power by right of birth
All struggles aimed to break their grip
Are choked by laws of ownership.
The land we stand on is not ours,
But lies in the hands of ancient powers
And though we protest, march and vote
Their foot is always on our throat.
We cannot truly share the wealth,
For it was robbed by force and stealth
By those who claim by family tree
Dominion over land and sea.
As long as we accept this state,
The few dictate the people's fate.
