This is the 13th song from the Riot Act album from Pearl Jam. It was released in 2000 by Sony Music Entertainment Inc. This song is yet another way of talking about, the “upper” class is taking too much and the “middle” class is disappearing into the “lower” class. And that still is not good enough...
[Verse 1]
Climbing on a mountain
Floating out on the sea
Far from lights of a city
[Pre-Chorus 1]
The elements, they speak to me
Whispering that life
[Chorus 1]
Existed long before greed
Balancing the world on its knee
[Verse 2]
Don't see some men as half empty
See them half full of shit
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Thinking that we're all but slaves
There's ain't going to be
[Chorus 2]
No middle anymore, it's been said before
The haves be having more yet still bored
[Outro]
Won't someone save?
Won't someone save the world?
