Description
A story written for a friend of mine that was extremely wealthy and lost it all because of the cost of medical treatment for cancer without insurance. He looks back on his life and wishes he was kinder to people and gave more away. He realizes that money is a character-changer, and he no longer likes the result.
Lyrics
Your stuck in the shoes of another Whose focus is money and power Its you, its you Your life is surrounded by people Afraid of your eyes they glare so deep Its you The futures your lifes big focus Today is a ay its just a day It’s the same A day another dollar To save is your saving grace today Is this you Life used to be so simple, but now things have changed The money has taken my spirit away, I lost my soul Now the capitals gained and now I am a different man I now stand with cancer its killing Unable to do things by myself This is me I wish to take twenty years back Be poor and be kinder to the world It’s a dream Life used to be so simple, but now things have changed The money has taken my spirit away, I lost my soul Now the capitals gained and now I am a different man What a waste is money and power Everything is not worth this dark void Its my heart With the present time existing Its all been taken away it’s the best thing My new life Life used to be so simple, but now things have changed The money has taken my spirit away, I lost my soul Now the capitals gained and now I am a different man
