Pieces of paper with little green faces on it/
Can be the difference between who's fake and honest/
Its way beyond this status and class structure/
It affects everyone from the the suits to the crack hustler/
From the lack luster to the most vibrant of types/
Thinking the quality is better if its higher in price/
Buying their lives, trying to impress us with gimics/
Obsessed with their image instead of the perfection within us/
So materialistic they become objects themselves/
Viewing life as a product to sell for profit and wealth/
Logic and health are victims of this new disease/
Consumed with greed, eyes change colors from blue to green/
Its true Ive seen the rich living check to check/
In the fast lane, greed and envy stay neck and neck/
Life is left on the back burner for purses and cars/
Its sad when they hate what you have, not the person you are/



Been a while so I thought I'd throw somethin up.

True...

Well, that's a fact, isn't it?

Buying their lives, trying to impress us with gimics/
Obsessed with their image instead of the perfection within us/

Great line, the highlight bar of this short piece.

So materialistic they become objects themselves/
Viewing life as a product to sell for profit and wealth/

Great one.

Logic and health are victims of this new disease/
Consumed with greed, eyes change colors from blue to green/

Killer.

Its true Ive seen the rich living check to check/
In the fast lane, greed and envy stay neck and neck/

Alright.

Life is left on the back burner for purses and cars/
Its sad when they hate what you have, not the person you are/

Probably, the second best bar of this drop.

Simple and to the point. All truths, all reality. I can't fault this at all.
