Greed
A grip on you like an addictionA selfish need for something moreWho it hurts is inconsequentialWhen you get what you’re looking forAvarice, the muse that guides youYou are the sum of what you gainBut it won’t buy your soul redemptionThe kind of wealth you can’t obtainThe pigs are at the troughTheir hunger won’t subsideAwash in their own filthAwash in their own liesNo sense of empathyCorrupt in word and deedI hate you for what you representI hate for your greedThink of yourself before all othersTo hell with grace and charityThey just impede your blind ambitionThey just impede your gluttonyThe pigs are at the troughLetras de cancionesTheir hunger won’t subsideAwash in their own filthAwash in their own liesNo sense of empathyCorrupt in word and deedI hate you for what you representI hate for your greedStep on the necks of those beneath youAnd claw your way up to the topBut don’t look to me to find compassionWhen you inevitably dropThe pigs are at the troughTheir hunger won’t subsideAwash in their own filthAwash in their own liesNo sense of empathyCorrupt in word and deedI hate you for what you representI hate for your greed
