The value of life has become less than a piece of paper
We beat, torture, steal,
All for some artificial savor
Hoping this green will let us achieve some sanity
Only to learn it just gives us vanity
And greed
And fear
And anxiety
The pursuit of money has superseded our wills to live
And anyone that becomes an obstacle suddenly becomes and enemy
Where is the soul in us?
Everything is ran through this currency
To the point that our humanity is questioned
An ocean is riddled with trash
People grow hungry in the streets
Countries are invaded and borders destroyed
All because we choose to pursue a small piece of green
And it goes away faster than we get it
How far have we come
