Money does grow on trees...
  Poverty, such a meaningful word
  Currencies
  Like they are some kind of language
  That not everyone speaks
  And as the time goes
  It seems like our world
  Has some crazy theory
  That money buys happiness
  Every flower
  Seems to be replaced by a fake plant
  Just like every lasting emotion
  Seems to be replaced by fake  happiness
  And the desire to want more in life
  Without realizing
  All those things we want
  ….they don’t last(10 seconds)
  The newest phone model
  Gets old after a year
  That new pair of shoes
  Shabby is its new description after a year of usage
  The world is forgetting
  All the holidays and traditions
  All the things that used to make us happy
  Seem to be replaced by gadgets
  Which is ridiculous
  Because instead of treating money like a piece of paper
  We treat it like its a privilege
  A privilege not everyone has
  But life is a privilege
  Money….it’s just a piece of paper we use to fulfill our desire
  And we need to stop treating it like it can.
