Love of money


Money isn’t everything

But everything is money

Gold takes the strongest Hold

Silver makes my spine shiver

 

But love?

What is this love?

Not the puppy crap

The one where If I lost you I snap

Not the one where I wear the fools cap

But the encaged trap

I can’t buy it

Never had it

But I want it

 

I dream of having a Rock

Not the diamond ones

But the one where I fall

Never truly fall

Cause they have my back

I spend my stacks on

Dependent like you’re my crack

 

Society swears money is the only answer

But why can’t I have you and money?

I think I’d be fulfilled

But I chose one…  Money
