I Own Nothing

Worked like a mule
Went to the best school
Sharpened my knife
All my life..got me a pretty wife.

Got a beautiful child
A manicured paradise
Shiny cars, oh so styled.

Climbed up the ladder
In my career
To make more, to keep up with the Jones'.

Now I can afford a Jaguar
Sip on Margarita with a Cuban cigar.

This is who I have become
Defined in our society
How we pride
Live in anxiety.

But..
Do you really think
I own anything.

I came as you came
And I'll leave as you will.

I own no one
I own nothing to take with me.

But that's okay
I wasn't here
Forever to stay, anyway.

That's alright
I'll travel light
To the heavens and I hope
You will too.

Because I know
Any day now
Your face, your beliefs, your vows
Will disappear in the wind they blow.

As you go below.

I own nothing
You own nothing
But don't despair
It's alright!

We weren't meant to own
Sent down here only to share.
It's alright
It's okay!
