The History Of Life

Inherent problem with current 
Financial system is that
The more money you have
More interest it generates

So that a person with 1 million
In the savings account
Makes a lot more than
Someone with 1000 in the bank

Not just in the bank
But stocks and anything else
More money invested 
Generating more money 

The process by which
Rich becomes richer and richer
And the poor just strives to survive
Even if some managed to invest

Money being nothing more 
Than numbers digitally recorded
In some remote hard drive
Just data updated every now and then

Name of owner next to number
Passed down the generations 
One generation to the next
Perpetual billionaires

Having rights to that number
Shown on the screen
One million
One hundred million

Many with billions
Perhaps a trillion
So much money incomprehensible
Like the vastness of space

And then there are the poor
Homeless cold and hungry
Tired and weary
Sad and hopeless

Yet God loves them as much
If not more than the wealthy
For God loves those who are humble
Those who are low in spirit

The days of the rich and poor
All coming to an end
Having come into this world empty handed
Going out empty handed

Not being able to take one penny
All left behind
The only thing that is taken 
The history of life
