False Prophet

Full of hope, you're full of dreams, working hard, for your family
The more you make, the more you want, it's not enough, to fill your needs
Lost a grip on reality, just another fatality
Empty hopes empty dreams, life's not all it seems
Living on borrowed time, can't you see, you must be blind
All for profit not for free, a product of society

Another bonus, cash or cheque? Build your wealth, take a reality check
All cashed up, affluence, your perfect life, is a perfect mess
Just another statistic, your world is materialistic
Got to have the latest, it's got to be the best
In your ivory tower, you look down on the poor
They should get a job you say, you despise them to the core

Obsessed, fuelled by greed, you want it all
You're a slave, to the counterfeit God
Invest your life, you pay the price
When you worship, the counterfeit God

Prosperity, do you have it all? Choke on greed, you want more and more
Held to ransom, you sold your soul, into the money pit, you crash and fall
In this land where money talks, cashing in your reward
When it's time to pay your debt, you live a life you regret
You're just another prisoner, in the land of the free
Always working overtime, to feed that money tree

Obsessed, fuelled by greed, you want it all
You're a slave, to the counterfeit God
Invest your life, you pay the price
When you worship, the counterfeit God
