The Evil Bloodline of Money

There are many life species, on our planet
whose lives, are desperate and stressful
trying to cope with life, as we know it
dealing with strive, that is not normal

Humans have invented, this thing called money
which has created, the political economic system
that has never worked, for all life to be sunny
as they thought it was wise, but it has no wisdom

Humans are supposed to be, Mother Nature’s caretakers
but it seems like, they just want to be undertakers
as all of our breeding, increases human population
that only leads to, Mother Nature’s destruction

Humans have become like, bacteria in a petri dish
being crammed into, so much human density
like being caught in a fishing net, just wanting one wish
to get out of this place, the human rat race

We have been brainwashed, to think
that life, is all about money
but all life, is on the brink
of going, straight down the dunny

Mother Nature’s life, has been dominated
by those who have become, rich and powerful
as it just seems, we have been mandated
to be manipulated, by those who are ungrateful 

There are many who led, with bulling and manipulation
as it is their ambition, is to get a bonus pay packet
so they are very willing, to create their corruption
to get what they want, to wear their bogus jacket

They say that competition, is a good thing
but there is always, a winner and a loser
with those that have, more power to spring
and those who can’t compete, don’t have much of a future

Humans go out and kill, endangered wildlife
to greed their need, to feed their family
and there are those, who greed for their own life
as they don’t seem to have, a life of empathy

Humans have planned and implemented, deforestation
and we keep on destroying, with all this mining
which has only led, to our planet’s destruction
for our selfish attitude, of being a superior being

The greed of money, has created so much pollution
and overconsumption, of the earth’s material resources
as money has blurred their vision, for the right solution
to solve all our problems, with the right logical sources

There are many humans, around all our grime
who really struggle, with the stress of life
so out of desperation, they turn to crime
to relieve their stress, to have a decent life

All this has given us, a lot of health problems
because it has caused, inequality of life
to which is why, we have many society problems
as money, has never solved our problems
