Rich people living in paradise
Poor people under the bridge at night, oh yeah
Most people know what it takes to survive
But my people know how to do it and thrive, oh yeah
My people, we've been left behind before
My people, devil's knocking on your door
My people, sad so many had to go
My people, said we still here, and one day
We gon' all be in the same boat

Rich people still living high and dry
Poor people, they watching the waters rise, oh yeah

My people, we've been left behind before

My people, sad so many had to go
My people, we still here, and one day
We gon' all be in the same boat
Sing, all be in the same boat, yeah
