How they keep you down

I can't get anywhere because I'm not anywhere. The general trend is always downward. So if you're already down you'll never be able to get yourself up. At a certain level one only gets better, but you're not at that level. It's a very small margin, way at the top, and you're not allowed in. Unless something happens, that is. Once in a while they allow one of us poor shmucks win the lottery, or get that promotion they've been working for. They do this to maintain the illusion that a man can change his fate if he works hard eough, kisses enough ass, or is lucky enough. This keeps the majority concerned with themselves and blind to eachother's suffering. The truth is the only way we'll all be able to do better than we're allowed to is to change the system itself. We have to make equality available to the lowest class, raise the standards from the bottom up and do thngs for everyone without concern for profit. People don't see the cages they're stuck in, they don't feel the chains on their necks. In the darkness that surrounds us a little light will make all the difference in the world. I think we need to make a world where winning the lottery is not the only hope for many people to live their dreams. The only way to do this is to allow people the freedom to live their dreams on the daily. The money will not have hold over us if we don't need more of it to truly live. It will no longer be a goal, but simply a tool, like it's supposed to be.
