Allow Us To Live Our Life

Allow us to live our lives 

You got all the money 
In the world 

You got all the power 
You wanted 

You got all the material 
Possession you dreamt
About 

You got the control 
You wanted 

Yet 

You are not satisfied 

You still want more 
Despite all you got 

You wish to see the 
World right under your feet 

You want our soul 
Despite all we gave you 

You still want more 

Sorry oh man of greed 
We can't give more 
Than we got 

And our souls belong
To us not for your 
Agenda 

We need nothing new 
Or more 

All we ask from you all 
Behind the closed door
Of power is simple

Allow us to live our life
