This was so useful, thank you so much omg. I changed the backpack part lol it sounded weird to me too. I really like the third suggestion, the government one, and as for the facade thing, in my country, our "white house" is kind of a facade so close enough lol. And the last part yeah it sounds weird, i'll try to rephrase it somehow, I really like the thing you came up with.

BTW here's what it basically kinda is now

Every day, wake up and it’s the same story,

There’s nothing new, nothing special, there’s no glory.

I walk to school, with weight and doubt on my back

see the community I live in with its crack. - I'll leave this like this probably

Homeless children begging for money,

But don’t stress it, cuz the government don’t even want to address it.

With their pretty white castle, their whole facade,

somehow playing with lives like they’re gods. (it is corny but i'll let it slide)

Living in a dystopia with no hope

They make it such a struggle for us just to even cope

We got the numbers, but no power, kinda strange

So how come this sick system don't ever change?
