Your stuck in the shoes of another
Whose focus is money and power
Its you, its you
Your life is surrounded by people
Afraid of your eyes they glare so deep
Its you
The futures your life's big focus
Today is a day its just a day
Its the same
A day another dollar
To save is your saving grace today
Is this you
Life used to be so simple, but now things have changed
The money has taken my spirit away, I lost my soul
Now the capitals gained and now I am a different man
6
I now stand with cancer its killing
Unable to do things by myself
This is me
I wish to take twenty years back
Be poor and be kinder to the world
Its a dream
Life used to be so simple, but now things have changed
The money has taken my spirit away, I lost my soul
Now the capitals gained and now I am a different man
8
What a waste is money and power
Everything is not worth this dark void
Its my heart
With the present time existing
Its all been taken away its the best thing
My new life
Life used to be so simple, but now things have changed
The money has taken my spirit away, I lost my soul
Now the capitals gained and now I am a different man
