His self believe
His self believe
When a child, they said there was no God
if there was one, why would he (always a he)
let us suffer poverty and need
The wealthiest man in the world believes
God is a loving person because he worships
him and not the power bestowed on him
he thinks his gift of plenty is given by God
Not for him to believe his riches is a curse
given by an identity that hates humanity
Money in our material world is power
doors open the wealthy
He thinks politicians sit by his feet for
sagacity gives him a position that makes
him feel important, they need his money
and his opinions that might be banal
and claim his voice is that of the people
Secretly, they despise him, give him
position that if he succeeds and there is
a protest, the blame is his
His, the rich person, private life is a mess
he forgets his friends are cunning
flocking to him for economic advance
and women let him know he has charm
and laugh at his childish sense of humor
It is hard to be a millionaire looking for
love, but the money is an unbreakable wall
His walk through life is not easy, but I wish
him well and hope he finds a sanity
if he listens to his heart where God dwells
