Where’s all that money

The money paid in huge taxes

The money gained by underworld bosses

The money dropped in big temple donation boxes

Yet people dying of hunger and poverty

Yet slums lack of basic amenities 

Yet a child underprivileged unable to study

Yet the homeless living on streets dirty

Yet there is so much distress in the country

Where’s gone all that money


One side of the road there’s a five star hotel

The other side of the story a colony of slum tells

The first one richies pay to come to stay

For experiencing luxury they say

The other feels luxury if they have two meals a day

And wonder if they have enough for the house rent to pay

That road really tells the harsh truths of this world

The opposite sides 

Stay forever in my eyes

All the emotions that this consumerism has burnt

The socialists are vanishing by this capitalist world

What the future sits ahead, seems humanity will never be served.
