Modern Day Homeless

Currency is my only high I don’t need a drug,
I can’t go without it,
it’s the root of all evil,
Money rules everything money is lethal,
homeless man and I we’re basically equal,
he’s the first episode I’m the sequel,
they do the same things we do,
at these penny scraping jobs collecting pennies barely able to buy food,
rent and bills to pay barely gotta place to stay,
worried for the storm I could lose everything I worked for any day,  
thinking of ways to make it work talking to myself,
people think I’m crazy worried about my health,
everybody think society right but I’m going to take this left,
homeless man begging with his hand out,
we at work doing overtime wishing for handouts,
homeless ask for money we say you should have did better as if it’s funny,
but then we do the same,
the ones above us laugh and say you got your self to blame,
society is jus a game of evolution,
instead of evolve we dissolve,
instead of giving back to one another,
we selfish and tear down each other,
it’s a domino effect,
we tear each other down the future will follow sue,
we lend a helping hand greatness awaits but we’ll never have a clue,
