Money

Bramuel 2005 (Kanduyi)



Money moves men
Money drives nations
Money flattens mountains
Money fills valleys
Money money is power

Don’t think wireless
Look at hot babes
Look at exotic cars
Look at fancy houses
Look at soaring food
Look at soaring addictions
All at the tap of a screen

Here calls avarince
Here comes desire
Here comes selfishness
Here comes fear
Here comes banks
Sinking sinking into debt
Freedom of the slaves
Money is true freedom

Poverty controls us
Poverty drives masses
Blind to the pauper
Thee   be our only freedom
Choking development
Choking alacrity among men
Libidinous men insolent to brothers
Truly we are slaves to entrepreneurs
