And I Am Not Ambitious

See people think that money determines what we’re worth I just find it funny I’ve never had that thirst Your status and your stature places you above the worst but I don’t think it factors a job does not come first It doesn’t make you interesting, attractive or desired it doesn’t change your social scene just means you are inspired But if you are content climbing up the ladder Unsatisfied unless pockets are getting fatter Buying superficial items, temporarily desired friends, really users, dictating who gets fired The more you have to offer, the more you meet a liar these people will not bother the day after you’ve retired If you have what people need, you have a sense that you succeed You’ll never find that I agree, they act false, it’s done for need I think I’d be happier living without a thing Surrounded by caring people who are interesting Value in a sense of humour and a girl I think is hot the value of a social scene beats money or a job you may think you’re better buying things that I cannot I don’t have an emptiness or need to fill the slot you value employment stature, you haven’t got a lot overcompensating for a longing One you have not got life without an actual life is life without a plot who needs superficial aims for treatment that will rot
