WHILE MONEY LINGERS
Like lions man will roar,
As the batter to tear,
As the rod the skin rottens
While Money lingers.
Hustle and puzzle man shall toil.
Cribs and cones all must spoil.
As men wrestle; women battle.
While Money Lingers.
Treasures deplete as creatures
compete

As the poor feed on shit; even the
wealthy end in pit
wealthy end in pit
Fats and packs; All shall regress.
Even While Money lingers.
Sense to spend; may suspend
Arms of penny; grows and extends
Thieves go jail; as chieves go
grey
grey
Both will die While Money Lingers.
Now a pursuit; constituting a
pollute

All for bill; Vicinity seize for
peace.

Youth go hustling with charms and
scam

As Adults turn beggars; while
money lingers.

Money speaks
Get wisdom; trade understanding;
You keep saving me; while I keep
killing you;
killing you;
You will die in the race; while I
live across race.
live across race.
You, made of stuff; me made of
pulp
pulp
You, made to think; me made of ink
Yet, sets you ablaze and still get
the praise.

Regardless of your assets; I will
buy your casket,
buy your casket,
Even when I tear; you care and cry
When you wear, I care only for
your disposal.
your disposal.
Even your successors, yet I will
enslave
enslave
All for my sake; they go tattered
As my breath and strength lingers.
