Verse 1
People talk about wealth inequality like it starts and ends at the city line,
Like the story is only about who has a penthouse view and who works overtime.
But when I step back and look beyond the borders we draw in ink,
I see something wider, deeper, something harder to face than most of us think.
There are countries stacked with fortunes that never reach the hands below,
And others where whole communities live on wages that barely let them grow.
The gaps are not just local divides, they stretch across oceans and sand,
Creating a world where some are lifted high while others grip what little they can.

Chorus
Wealth inequality is not only real, it hits hardest across nations you never see,
A quiet distance that hides the scale of how uneven humanity can be.
The richest live as if the world bends just for their comfort and ease,
While others fight for basics that never make it into the global breeze.

Verse 2
It is easy to judge the problem by the skyline in your hometown,
But the real contrast gets sharper when you look at who stands on higher or lower ground.
Some countries thrive off capital flowing straight from places kept poor,
A cycle built so the wealthy rise while the weakest stay pressed to the floor.
We talk about opportunity like it is a universal promise meant for all,
But opportunity does not travel well across borders where empires still cast a long sprawl.
The story gets softened by distance, by maps and flags that break the truth apart,
Because it is harder to feel the inequality when you cannot see the beating heart.

Bridge
Statistics get turned into tidy charts that make suffering look clean,
Numbers stripped of faces so the pain stays outside the main scene.
If people saw the full picture without the blur of distance or pride,
They would notice how wealth is stacked in pockets so deep it rewrites the tide.
I think about the lives defined by accidents of latitude and luck,
And the ones who profit from systems designed so the poorest stay stuck.

Chorus
Wealth inequality is not only real, it hits hardest across nations you never see,
A quiet distance that hides the scale of how uneven humanity can be.
The richest live as if the world bends just for their comfort and ease,
While others fight for basics that never make it into the global breeze.

Outro
So when someone says wealth inequality is only about neighbors on your street,
I want them to widen their view past the borders where stories rarely meet.
The problem is global, enormous, and quieter when hidden from our sight,
And the truth grows clearer when we name the distance between shadow and light.
