Money Can You Hear Me

I have an addiction I could't see, Until I tried to let it be. Couldn't believe where it took me, It shook the core of my belief. May I have some relief, PLEASE!! I'm Sorry I was a thief. It was causing so much grief, I just wanted a piece of what they had, I was treated bad and was always sad. I never had a real dad. Everyone followed your path, Stealing my sense of worthy, It hurt me. Took so much of me to see, Why My friends ditched me. Now I am sore, It was hard being poor. I don't want you anymore, Just settle the score, I don't want to be, Addicted to money. I'm going through withdrawal, Who do I call, I gave it my all, In the end I feel so small, Sorry about the fall, It was a really tall wall. I almost made it too, Now I'm calling out to you, Money can you hear me? I was told you are energy, What are you all about? I need to find out, I'm shouting horrible things. Meanwhile greedy Kings, Stealing our dollars, Creating chaos and wars, And little to scholars. Can you hear me hollering, I don't know if you care. But they are using you wrong, I SWEAR!!
