Everything Means Nothing

everything? means nothing
greed is the highest height
of human stupidity
for the greedy don't 
understand nature
always they want more
always they love monopoly
like today politician
life is not for the greedy
yet it hard for humans
to understand

everything means nothing
when you have everything
then you have nothing
you can't have it all
is quite not natural
you can only have all
that feed your needs?
a rule of nature
for your greed is not?
of nature
life is not for the greedy
when it shows no humanity

everything means nothing
i see the rich 
despite their wealth 
yet not happy
i see the poor 
in the ghetto 
so free and happy
doe they got nothing
i see the V.i.p morn to grave
cos life means only nothing
but greed to them yet 
i see the poor? live happily 
to 6feet with all morning
them with great happiness
life is not all about the rich 
and the poor
yet today rich don't 
live through real values
of life

everything means nothing
you can't have it all
you can only live it all
that only when you realise that
nothing means something when
everything means nothing
