Silver Spoons

If you think that money brings happiness, then you're wrong....
that thought makes your heart weak, you got to make it strong...
kings too cry inside their castles...
and fight their own hidden battles...

Everybody is good at wearing plastic smiles...
hiding their problems which are in piles...
silver spoons aren't always a blessing...
so think twice before wishing...

Money can't revive a lifeless heart...
or break two souls apart...
do not let dollar signs blind you...
and do not judge others without a clue...

The rich hide their tears behind Ray-Ban shades..
and feels helpless even with hundreds of maids...
happiness is self driven...
so be thankful for what you've been given...
