Elitism

In the past slaves fought in the Colosseum

All for the benefit of the social elite,

Not much has changed and we remain slaves

But now the right and left wing slaves fight on the streets,

While meanwhile champagne and privilege

Is still the domain of the same social elite,

And what we seem reluctant to do is stand up against them

And finally demand real change and an end to greed.
