Material Myths

[Verse] Got those dollar bills, but what’s it worth? We trading souls for gold, lost in the dirt. Fancy cars, big estates, no love to nurture. Winner takes all, got us in a lurch. [Chorus] Chasing shiny things, forgot what it means— Human connection lost in the machines. Material myths got us splitting at seams. Wake up, wake up, get outta these schemes. [Verse 2] Distraction action, it’s a consumer’s faction, Got us droppin’ Benjamins, maxin’ satisfaction. Competition spillin’, killin’ all compassion, Every cent we spent, we losin’ interaction. [Bridge] Real wealth, it’s the health, fam close, true friends. Not the bags, not the tags, not the trends. Steel heart, we smart, break these bends. Unity in community, that’s where it ends. [Verse 3] Facebook, Insta-fame, chasing the acclaim— Hollow lives on display, mirrors of the same. Value in the hundred-fold, when we love untold, Not in cash stacks, wallets fat and old. [Chorus] Chasing shiny things, forgot what it means— Human connection lost in the machines. Material myths got us splitting at seams. Wake up, wake up, get outta these schemes.
