What is it that we want in life? What is it that we need?
There are some who give their energies while others just feed,
Half of us are seeking truth while the rest of us deceive,
Through personal justification we live and we believe.

You do something bad for your own greater good,
Disregard your morals, not doing what you should,
And when the truth comes out, you claim misunderstood,
Creep back into your space, creep back into your hood.

As the days roll by, we're all growing old,
And to the night time life your youth has been sold,
You're taking what you can, oh but low and behold,
The people you had by your side have all grown cold.

Be sure to put yourself first, as you always do,
Make sure you give yourself what we wont give to you,
As long as you're on top in your one man crew,
The sun will always shine, the sky is always blue.
