The Number Zero 0
the number zero 0
naked we all came
naked we all will go
so why turn greedy
to everything
you never own
from the beginning
you worth zero
you came empty
so you own nothing
in life
we are tenants
in our mighty planet
we are here to live
with all life gives
so good the gifts
of nature is sufficient
in abundant
despite we own nothing
the life is like
a stage
we are all an artist
in this stage of life
we came on to this
life with nothing
only our legacy must
be our ultimate remedy
not the material wealth
we acquire
for every thing material
will always remain here
when we are gone
tell the greedy man
to rethink
tell the ambitious
man that he must be
on a fast speed
to the grave yard
tell the ruling class
that we got a soul
not a debt
tell the world we don't
need to fight
for everything we
fight for remains here
when we are gone
for we own nothing like
the number zero 0
