With the eyes of a magpie, forced into greed
He would do anything to satisfy his needs
The steps are in front of him, shining so bright
But how far could he go until he's blinded by wealth's light?
His excessive existence will surely be his death!
Consumed by selfishness he's too blinded to see
He has devoured his own identity
With the mind-set of a jackal ready to kill
He sees the reward but can he pay the bill?
He climbs up the staircase reaching for the top
But he doesn't know when to stop!
His excessive existence will surely be his death!
Consumed by selfishness he could not see
That his climb towards the upper-class was the stairway to insanity!
