I grew up in want, my heart cold as winter,
Empty pockets, but dreams cried out louder than misery (misery… misery…)
I looked to the sky, asking why me, Lord,
Why do tears fall when I implore your heart (Lord… heart…)
Money became my only true language,
Each bill erases a little of the pain of passing (passing… passing…)
But the more I earn, the more my soul drowns,
As if I lose God with every step I take without faith (without faith… without faith…)
I saw brothers change for a few wads of cash,
Fake smiles, looks filled with threats (threats… threats…)
We sell our dreams to survive one more day,
But at what price if even heaven no longer hears us? (more… more…)
My mother prayed for me in the silence of the night,
I chased after gold, lost in infinity (infinity… infinity…)
She said, “God sees everything, even in the darkness,”
But I sank too deep to listen to her anymore (listen… listen…)
I pile up the bills, but my heart remains in ruins,
The devil smiles at me while God silently walks away (silence… silence…)
I wanted to be rich to escape the pain,
Now I'm a prisoner of my own worth (worth… worth…)
If money buys everything, why do I feel empty?
Why are my nights dark even when my life shines? (shines… shines…)
Lord, forgive me for forgetting your name,
I sold my soul to fill my pockets with illusions (illusions… illusions…)
