What You Want
Is a dream's reality realistic in life
Or do our desires feed our ambition
It excites the being of all to want riches
What you want, money can't buy happiness
Is it not what we search is peaceful soul
A life without struggle, I know many fallen
Beyond their control a life gone in blink
What you want that you breath poison of a world
That you lose yourself amongst society weaken
Is it taste success your accomplishments eager
That the dream is chance to live life
Not so much the material thing but our own
self the love of perfection
What you want that your racist heart hunger
But things of another not your own
What you want that is of your own acceptance
Life not easy but a dreamer's playground
To live and death be certain any age
What you want that you lack survival
Only to be apart greatest creation known
Only planet where life actually exist
What you want that you don't already have
Not clothes that make the man but
the man who makes his own destiny
