Freedom...Ahh what a memory.
Seems it's just faded to fantasy.
Seems all I've ever wanted
is something that's always just flaunted.
Something none of us really ever have.
Looking at it all, it's really pretty sad.
We're all slaves to money, or to greed.
A slave to the things we want and to what we need.
A life wasted is one with nothing to show
and out of death something new always will grow.
Somehow it will all come to be
and maybe we're just too blind to see.
Maybe it's all really just a test
to see who can make it out the best.
Who can lie cheat and steal their way to the top
till that one day when it comes to a stop.
