Letter to the Rich (feat. Powfu)
作曲 : Johnny Dukane Gorton-Parker
Yeah
Lemonade to the brim, key, sippin' out my glass
Listening the people talk, watching people pass
I never understood why we act the way we do
Talkin bout our riches and watches and new shoes
Like no one really cares, maybe first world citizens
While other children in the world keep on shivering
We stand and watch, only give them what we littering
Sin inside our hearts slowly, burning us to smithereens
Yeah
I wanna move out of this country
Stuffin' out my mouth, while these other people are hungry
Sick of this me, uh, sick and in a sea
When the kingdom finally come, we the villains on the scene, man
I don't wanna be, and neither do you
Cause we aint doing our best and you know that is the truth
So let's stop, and give praise to the lord
Yesterday is in the past, and tomorrow we'll move forward
You say, I'm rich and wealthy
But surely you are unhealthy
You're pitiful, blind, poor, all of your treasures are melting
Come buy my gold, become rich
I'll dress you in white clothes to cover all of your sins
Cause godliness with Contentment is great gain
Never could accumulatin' wealth give you a great name
The envy and greed that you feel when you need
More you fall in love with the money, the root of all evil
Our material desires are those of the wanting mind
So even with more, we never feel satisfied
The things we buy to pacify, the empty feelin' inside
As if, man made things will help us feel alive
I realized my religion was materialism
Not realizing God gave, so i could be a giver
It's not for me to live in luxury, but to live more brotherly
To be able to give cheerfully, when my brother need
Aint it envy and greed that makes a man bust guns?
We worry bout trust funds, but we can't trust funds
Put your trust in God above, cause it's him who loves
Your true worth is not defined by dollar signs that you touch
Now i aint jokin', everybody's broken
It can get dark with the sin that we soaked in
So we gotta reach out, find the right path
If a brother's falling down, then you better lend a hand, uh
God is good, and we are not
Soon enough all our bodies gonna rot
Yeah this life on earth is not what we want
So give all you got to get to heaven when you gone
