Get a bit aside big fella
'this is where i work'
on this clean marble slab,
blessed by the dust of the rich
but doomed by their ignorance
help me, will you?
you look like a glitter
covered in gold, embedded with diamonds
not toxicated by ego
not influenced by materialism
there was nothing i could do
was awestruck, was brimmed in grief
a gem rolled down my eyes
couldn't give her anything except sympathy
to much of my wonder, she smiled
thanking me for the compassion
we couldn't stand each other
the air pressurised us
she turned her gleaming eyes
to a bubble seller
to her it was magic, to others it was exasperation
i could see her eyes
photographing endless aspirations
soon she was rebuked
by the ego of the rich
who flaunt and boast of the things they haven't earned
i couldn't give her anything, i'm sad
but i'm dedicating this to her, for this i'm glad
work as hard as you can, don't beg from this acquisitive world
they can't lend you hands
they can't give you ears
because they're deaf
blooded with bluster and cavalier
believe in what you do
believe what is right
choose to win, choose to fight
and i'm there, with my shoulder ready
will spring you to heights
have faith, have belief
people will adhere to your marks one day.
