No Money , No Love
I think to much i can't stop thinking -
I feel like a big man at his stage of shrinking -
He was once big now he's small -
Sat down peacefully until one day he wanted to stand tall -
Then , he thought how can i stand -
Im a man and when i wake up everyday there's not a penny
in my hand -
Stand tall , who shall i face -
How can i when there's no money to fill up that beautiful
heart's space -
It's ashame that love amount's to money -
With empty pocket's how can i call anyone my honey -
Is it fair that i must have money to love -
I thought having a good heart was the most precious thing
from up above -
I want to be loved and love someone back -
Now because i have no money im like a pipe to someone
with no crack -
There pipe is useless and my pocket's want do me no good -
I see a beautiful heart but , im scared that with no money i
might be misunderstood -
