The Disease
Greed is the name of this disease
through too much success it comes with ease
It's not the sickness that is wrong,
the person determines their fate
Life isn't as easy, as humming to a simple song
so it's no wonder we learn to hate
I believe it is the dream that is bad,
when you shoot for the sky some get lost
You get confused, and abused, that's why you're so sad
the loss of dear friends is the cost
We are meant for success,
that's how we are blessed
But remember You in this quest,
money is the ultimate test
Fitzgerald once wrote, the color green as a theme
that's why I believe, the disease... is the American dream
