Robbed of Your Mind for That Green Dollar Sign

Cross your T's,

Dot your I's,

For that green dollar sign.

Because money might not buy happiness,

With materialism in mind,

But it controls everything,

Even if it's not advertised,

Without it,

You can be robbed of your mind,

I'm thinking in rhymes right now.

Thinking in rhymes.

Which is..

If I think about it,

not a good sign.

But they are messing with my meds again.

Messing with my mind.

Withholding what I need to be that perfect clog in the line,

A member of society?

Not when lost in these thoughts.

Lost in the maze,

Of not enough.

I thought I followed the rules,

But I must not have gotten it right.

Just remember,

It's all for that green dollar sign.

Cross your T's,

Dot your I's,

For that green dollar sign.

Because money might not buy happiness,

With materialism in mind,

But it controls everything,

Even if it's not advertised,

Without it,

You can be robbed of your mind,

Because once you're on the roller coaster,

Of not quite right.

It's not easy to find your way to the exit sign.

Because even when you are able to step off the ride.

Stand up straight,

Stretch your legs,

Soon it's another green dollar sign.

Reminded of responsibilities,

Be a mother.

Be a wife.

Be productive.

Be just the right right.

Because if YOU,

God forbid,

Fall behind.

You could lose everything,

Without that green dollar sign.

Soon it's back to reality,

Can't find time.

No time for focus.

Can't find peace of mind.

or something like-

So you just go back,

To the back of the line.

Just caught,

Caught up in the rhyme.

Cross your T's,

Dot your I's,

For that green dollar sign.

Because money might not buy happiness,

With materialism in mind,

But it controls everything,

Even if it's not advertised,

Without it,

You can be robbed of your mind

<Fading ending>

… Be robbed of your mind.

…for that green dollar sign.
