Low Man on the Totem Pole

Low Man on the Totem Pole

Always told the lie that we have the right
To stand for our freedom, that freedom for which we fight
Yet here we are, all prisoners in this place
Working so hard to pay our bills and still losing the race
Forced to do things we don't want to do
Supposedly to keep all Americans self righteous and true
I would like to believe that people still care
I just don't see that heart we had is still there
Because if you stand for what you believe in you get fined or even locked in a cell
That fine you can't pay because this economy fell
It's sad to know what has come of this world
Wishing I could change it all but I'm only one girl
