Possessionas Are Just Things
~Possessions Are Just Things~
(Free Style)
So many times when we buy new things,
This exciting feeling over takes us in, but it doesn't really last long,
I don't know if that happens to you, but it happens to me,
Possessing things can't bring us happiness all the time, you see
Material things are only to be used, they're never to be loved,
All things have a purpose after all, and that's to supply us with a need,
We have them only for a reason, and that's to serve us, we should never worship them,
Because they're not "God" and our Almighty God takes over this lead
Things are not really "who we are", our heart, mind, body, soul and spirit, they all have different needs too,
So forget how many houses, cars or possessions you own,
What comes down in the end, are your right aptitude and your good heart,
These are the "things" that one day in your life and head will be crown,
So when you buy new things, don't make them your "God" you know,
Enjoy them all! But always put God and people first, just love them a lot here and now.
