[Verse]
People cry in the streets
Empty pockets nowhere to eat
High above they take it all
Greedy hands watch us fall

[Verse 2]
Promises they never keep
While the innocent lose sleep
Rich men laugh we scrape by
Underneath the same sky

[Chorus]
Corruption at the core
They steal we stay poor
From the top they mislead
Crushing every honest need

[Bridge]
We work hard everyday
But the shadows never sway
Hope is thin but hearts stay strong
Dreaming of where we belong

[Verse 3]
Change will come it'll be slow
But together we will grow
Voices rising like a song
In the fight we all belong

[Chorus]
Corruption at the core
They steal we stay poor
From the top they mislead
Crushing every honest need
