everyone in this world is running for more
humans are hungry, craving from the core
some want popularity, some desire wealth
at the cost of honesty, at the price of health
some want properties, some aspire for might
killing their own people their own trivial fight
the hunger for money has made humans robots
flummoxed in the oceans rowing their own boats
there is noting that money cannot purchase
the character, the body, the religion, the race
the honesty, the integrity, the mind and the soul
the patriotism, the loyality, the objectives, the goal
thoughts grow corrupt and a person turns criminal
in the pursuit of comfort, tranquility and miracle
is there so dire a need to be deliberately cynical
can’t we keep our wishes and desires to bare minimal?
