Illuminated

Blanketed in darkness Hatred is your shield Hurting one another losing all free will Listening to the voices that lead you all astray Your eyes are shut in darkness no brightness in the day Money is the prize for selling out your soul Fame is your new wife that holds you when your cold Now you're just a puppet, spreading out lies Watching as all goodness slowly starts to die Those who see the truth will never lose there sight Enlightened with the true one we'll continue on the fight

Yes indeed... I don't think I could ever have that much money and not help out someone in need....
