Raised To Worship Money

When people are raised to worship money,
With a disrespecting of themselves to obtain it...
The absence of sincerity shows.

As their mental and physical deficiencies grow,
They seem to be frantically caught and seen seeking...
Anything quick to numb the pain to get that 'normal' feeling.
