I've never been one for the money
never have been, never will
enough to get by is fine by me
while others pursue their fill

It's not that I lack ambition
although some might disagree
It's purely that financial gain
is not whats important to me

Sure money can help you buy stuff
typically stuff you that don't need
Just to end up trapped by the things that you own
prisoner to the product of greed

I'm no more obsessed with fashion
than I am with the money it costs
I've seen too many people wrapped up in a badge
that they themselves become lost

Jeans and a t-shirt are just as much clothes
as a designer suit and tie
And when you look around
at the folks in the ground
who knows in what clothes they lie

I'm not saying I don't wanna be rich
just rich in a way which matters
If you asked me to choose between money and love
I'd always be taking the latter
