The Billion Dollar Man's Paycheque

A feat of unequal measure
do you hear what i hear?
the world at my feet
do you see what i see?

the homeless mastermining a demonstartion of peace
for the billion dollar man to get real paid
everything after eventual to the realisation
he would never let them down

a repeating act of a hidden blessing
providing a safety net to protect
the victoms of war
who were claimed by the game of making one's life unfair

The art of replacing negatives with positives
robbing your two cents to show you there may be money in your healing process
the reality check that sets you off on your adventure
of discovering the plan life had for you
would be payment enough for this billion dollar man
