The Needy, The Greedy

This weight in the world
Balanced in paper
One side falls asleep
Dreaming of what they want
The other side
Dreaming of what they need

Existence demeaning
Nothing For filling
They see what they want
Considering no one
The need, the Greed

Living in the Material World
For the Material Boys & Girls
Isn't all that it seems
Knowledge of nothing
Respect lingering
Comfort exceeding

The Greed of one
Becomes so strong
They Live On

Lost of land
The Greedy Man
Abandoned Alone
All in His Command
Done Nothing Wrong
Beats them down
A Heart of One
One For None

With dirt in their eyes
Sitting in the Cold winter as the fire dies
Hope of their needs
They bleed

Running Along
No place to go
Lives played with
Hearts grow strong
As the days creep on

The Need of one
Becomes so Strong
Death becomes one

Lost of land
The Greedy Man
Abandoned Alone
All in His Command
Done Nothing Wrong
Beats them down
A Heart of One
One For None

On top of the world
Nothing to Prove
Comes Greed and Attitude
Down in the dump
Searching for food
Despair is the factor
In this unfair world

The Greedy Man
Wins again
The Days die on
As they fade away
