Poor billions
Two Ships not passing in the night
Darkness rises sun stands tall
Off the coast of anywhere you are
Waves lap at the sand seashells glisten
We set off on our journey of life
Crowded and cramped
Not 1st Class
Here is where the story turns into 2 episodes
Clothes on my back baby in arms
Looking for a brighter future for us and them
A world away rich men play with their toys
Titan not Titanium headed for an iceberg
1:45 in there is a Warning
Bubbles rise up
Billions go down
Back to the other ship
Immigrants looking for a better life
Tossed into an angry sea
Momas and Babies struggle to not drown
Billionaires on a Peter Pan Mission
So where to deploy our life resources
Cash money near Titanic
Or some Moms and Pa’s trying to lift their life up
Saving billionaires with millions
Or some parents and children
You know where this goes
Money rules the roost
Loss of culture
Saving big dollars
How many bright lights get extinguished
To save 5 men
Coast guard on the case
But not where tragedy crashes
Slipping below the surface
Little one has no recourse
Sink into the dark water
As boats race to save a billionaire escapade
Covering the size of Connecticut
Darkness rises sun stands tall
Off the coast of anywhere you are
Waves lap at the sand seashells glisten
We set off on our journey of life
Crowded and cramped
