Another day, another dollar
But as time flies by
The world gets smaller

You can fold your bills
And count your cash
But the time you've spent
You can't buy back

I've got equity in memory
my debts are fully paid
I think it's time to undermine
All the rules they made

I "can't pay bills with adventure and thrills"
I may not sit rich
But I stand fulfilled

Your Legs grow weak
While your tires roll
Your mouth may eat
But you starve your soul

Five days of work
Two days free
Two hundred and fifty days per year
A slave to the economy.

Gotta eat to live
Gotta work to eat
Work, buy, consume, die
Rinse and then Repeat

The cycle needs broken
And system needs fixed
The corrupt world leaders
All need 86'd

I don't know how to do it,
I just know how to live
But I know I can't take it
So i guess I'll try to give.

Fix it when I break it
Make it when I need it
First I'll try to grow it
Then I get to eat it.

Plant the seeds
Not just for trees
But for intelligence
And philosophy.

The greatest human feats
Were once merely thoughts
So think about the world we have
Now make it what we want.
There are no stars in my life,
But you are my light.
Time is trouble, trouble is strife,
But you are my might.

I look into your eyes,
Your smiling face,
I see no lies,
Only grace.

I'd forgive you for anything,
But you do no wrong.
I try to sing,
But I find no song.

I have no words,
I can't find things to say.
Life without you hurts,
I can't put these feelings at bay.

Like the rain,
You cleanse me.
With you I feel no pain,
You have set my soul free.

You are nothing but fair,
You show nothing but care.
The fight is relentless
This goes on and on
It makes me breathless
For days and days and then it's gone.

This fight is traumatic
It's all over the place
No where near systematic
Absent of grace.

I cry for you
I try for you
I fly for you
I die for you.

— The End —
