Greed is the main priority in life
And it would be completely foolish to say:
“We should help bring peace to the world”
“We should help one another”
“We should give to charity”.
In order to better ourselves,
Greed should continue in all of us.
An unwise person would only say
There is humanity in all of us.
For everyone, however,
Selfishness is
What we are full of,
Hope is
Not an option,
Giving up is
What we do,
Helping one another is
Insignificant.
None of us are
To tell the truth,
And this will be our future unless we turn it around.
And this will be our future unless we turn it around.
To tell the truth,
None of us are
Insignificant,
Helping one another is
What we do,
Giving up is
Not an option,
Hope is

Selfishness is
For everyone, however,
There is humanity in all of us.
An unwise person would only say
Greed should continue in all of us.
In order to better ourselves
We should give to charity
We should help one another
We should help bring peace to the world.
And it would be completely foolish to say:
Greed is the main priority in life
This is GENIUS. I love it!
