Poverty Dumb
I'll tell you what the poor would want
-Ferrari's and black kittens.
Then ask you of the things they've got
curt poverty and ridden's.
Then sell you on the things they need
for prosper and street rhythms.
To let you know their world can change
for honor and fruits given.
That all their ways are left for more
than other's qest of visions.
When needing more than cars and cats
are just their dreams decisions.
And poverty is known for more
than heartache and division.
To make your heart adapt to wealth
for more than future's given.
That all should see the steps to wealth
are simple in attrition.
For what is wealth than hope for man
despite their own ambition.
