lyrics

And All For What?

Some say they are enlightened and have the right
to overpower another's livelihood
to the shadows or to the light.
They act as judge to strike or stay their hand
to people that they do not know
or care to understand.
Fearing lost identity and to be swallowed up
they force their ideology as they strut,
and all for what?

Some always get what they want; take what they see
they don't care what they do to others,
as long as they get what they need.
They must have the best that their money can buy
never mind anyone getting in their way
to to cause them to be denied.
They fear being less than what they think they've become
so they revel in taking advantage of,
and all for what?

Some rise to a seat of power in too short a span,
get over drunk with pre-eminence
and lost touch with the their fellow man.
They take any opportunity that comes in play
disregarding and destroying
all that's in their way.
Amassing things and favors without love
and the more they have the more it's not enough,
and all for what?
