Chasing Green

Chasing Green

Done chasing green hoping it frees me

Focusing on living in the second

As you learn that time is more precious than

A bank account given to a grave

Traveling on a time chart setting goals that will be to suffering like a drop in the bucket

Money sits in misery surrounded by sycophantic bitches

Far away but in this world we live in

On a paddy field the climate water is rising

Young girl goes back to show her family she did her part

Daddy knows it’s not enough but he wraps his daughter in poor love
