Give

If there was no such thing as possession
Do you think the world would still be the same?
Would people still admire Kanye,
who has only money to his name?
Would you look up to the same people
wanting their riches and fame?

If admiration was based on actions
would you change who you admire?
Would money, fame and looks
still be your only desire?
Or would you think for once about
what the rest of the people require?

When it's time, your bill is due,
will you be charged based on what you did?
Or just on the things you owned
when you were an adult and as a kid?
Listen close, and you shall hear,
an interesting change I bid.

If we change what we value
for a month, a week or even a day
Would we still view ourself the same
and think the same way?

Where not owning things is misery
In a material world we live,
And everyone seeks fame and glory
But please, instead of "money" desire "to give"
