Nothing Personal

Nothing Personal


Nothing makes the world go around
People think that money 
Is the most important thing
People think that money
Makes the world go around

Money is nothing
Money is not liquid solid or gas
Money is a construct of the imagination

A man walks 21 miles to work
People think he needs money
But what about his free will to live
Nothing personal

A man is fired from his job
Because the managers said he did not make them money
Nothing personal

A boy steals his second father credit cards
Because he needs money to fuel his drug addictions
But nothing personal

What makes the world go around
What makes the world go around
Like money nothing
Not a liquid
Not a solid
Not a gas
Nothing personal
