Would You Really
Would You Really
As periods of life we go through each phase
There were many weeks created from days
And months ending up turning into years
Until we do die and each of us disappears.
Could it possible be a popularity contest
To determine who turns out being the best
What in the final becomes our self worth
Among erratic behavior of people on earth.
Gregariousness is often hard to explain
And here on earth everything is a drain
On our very being and also existence
Even if a pauper or once was a prince.
Do dig deep into brilliant mind of yours
With great intelligence but still ignores
What we are compelled to do and achieve
While in and out of traffic have to weave.
Cell phones and computers make us complacent
Will we end up in same place that they went
Which is to again end up being safe and sound
With both of my feet firmly on the ground.
So my money only seems to be substantial
State of fiasco are things that are financial
What we had earned ended up being spent
With my consent you should run for President.
