Still dreaming

They're tryna hold us down, want us think there's no way out of it
They tell us we ain't shit and benefiting from the doubt it brings
We down and out now, what you think we won't get up again
With nothing left to lose won't give a fuck about what we up against
I bet you're wishing that we'll give it in
Without a pot to piss in, we rise like the cost of living is
It's money innit, we slaving and they rake it in
It's labour that we make it with your profit's unpaid wages an
The systems working perfect if you choose to ignore the
Twenty million plus that die each year
Because they can't afford no food or water
Shelter or health-care
But why should you give a fuck, like ain't nobody else caring
And we ain't ready for that for the many mentality
That's just how it's always been and has to be
I'll learn in due time I'm being stupid of course
People earn their inheritence, workers choose to be poor
And now we outsource our labour it's improved from before
Out of sight out of mind nothing new to report
But look we ain't the cause of this, na we were born in it
The way we living's hypocritical of course it is
But listen mate, we live this way cause it's the only
Way we know so we participate or don't eat
I play the hand that I was given and I live with it
Whilst thinking if we're sick of this instead of wishing
If we give a little bit
And take a lot less it could be different
But divide and rule has turned us into non defiant fools
Like we're tryna prove we're in a class above so we acquire jewels
And use them to look down on those who
Are in the same situation and knowing what we going through
They live and breathe our struggle but we hating them
Cause we're convinced we got more in common with Boris than with our neighbours
I'm still dreaming
I still believe
That if we stand as one
Well then we'll rise together
And I'm still dreaming
I still believe
That if we stand at one
Well then we'll rise together
And those who stand with the people are slated in the papers
We're too complacent, that's just way it is
If the current system works then why you worried then
Why are revolutionary leaders always toppled by foreign governments
Propaganda got us loving oligarchs, opposing prole champions
They make us wanna ramp with those who stand with us
Scared of making changes an you hating them
Taught to conform soon as we're taken through school gates an then
We'll vote against our interests, innit
Cause we're all part of the elite we just earn a bit less at the minute
But you don't wanna listen you already picked a side
But living for the weekend that's giving up on life
We're one bad pay away from being kicked to the side
It's like we only work to make a bigger divide
If you rich why you need another thousand million more
Think about it what they need a billion for
I'm still dreaming
I still believe
That if we stand as one
Well then we'll rise together
And I'm still dreaming
I still believe
That if we stand at one
Well then we'll rise together
Pounds buy groceries, thousands buy homes to live in
Millions buy comfort, billions buy politicians
They can decide what side is winning
Anyone who doesn't side with them, they're silenced or missing
Do what they want with no fear of repercussion honestly
It's more than property, why you think there's a nonce in the monarchy
And we pretty much ignore it
But when it comes to Megan Markle we ain't short of stories
Like she's the worst thing to happen to the royale family
Like Diana was before the tragedy
We're told what to think solar powered thoughts are running the country
Trust me, it's the sun what won it
And Sun Tzu said All warfare is based on deception
Well there's no war but class war, they'll win it if you let them
I said there's no war but class war
And they'll win it if you let them
