It's All About Lust

Money, power

I gotta get some

if I ain't got the two

I just ain't the one

Week as a kitten

without any claws

what could I ever do

with two useless paws

Just give me the money

I'll buy me that power

I'll hit the ground running

and it won't take an hour

Don't get in my way

as I go on this run

I promise you now

you won't find it fun

I want what I want

I'll do whatever it takes

if it means burying you

it'll take less than two shakes

My lust is for power

you cannot deny me

how can you say that I'm evil

I'll have it, you'll see

The man used to care

his humanity meant all

but his lust for that power

had brought his great fall

There's more to life than power

success is not about money

those statements may seem strange

don't laugh, it ain't funny

Too much money and power

corrupt simple men

erasing their kindness

that they had back then

Often making them monsters

losing sight of who they were

and their pasts, they became

not much more than a blur

No love left in their heart

their humanity lost

not a show of any kindness

lust for power has a cost
