Millions of people go without food,
For some privileged nimrods to afford their luxuries.
Millions of people have no access to essentials,
So that celebrities can buy their lamborghinis.
The difference between phony activists and a reformer,
Is not in what they say but in their lifestyle and action.
In a world that still suffers from the lack of essentials,
Indulgence in luxury is human rights violation.
What people do with their money is not a private affair,
Each penny above necessity belongs to social welfare.
One who talks of equality while riding in a Rolls Royce,
Is the last person to be concerned of people's despair.
None has a right to luxury till all can access necessities.
Every dollar spent on luxury is a dollar of disparity.

All our life we work hard to buy golden chains.
With which we then bind ourselves.
What's the point of living as fancy slaves?
What will we do with our billion-dollar graves?
We sit on our couch covering our eyes,
Then we yell, why everything is so very dark!
But no one hears for they are also shouting,
Praying for a messiah to bring back life's spark.
We've forged fascist fences out of all our gold,
And have placed them as walls around us.
Then we shout out - help, help,
And beg to be saved by the universe!
Greed of dollar is the toxic mold on the green of life.
Life flourishes on moderation, not consumerist strife.

If someone wants to do harm they’ll do harm,
Whether they have nukes or sticks and stone.
If someone wants to do good they’ll do good,
Whether they have a billion dollars or just one.
Intention is the mother of all good deeds ‘n bad,
It has got nothing to do with having resources.
With intention one bread can feed ten people,
It cannot feed even one when there is no intent.
A world that is run by greed stops for nobody,
Who cares what such a world thinks as righteous!
In such a world you gotta throw caution to the wind,
And stand as pillar of service among the retards.
Long enough snobbish retards have ruled the world!
Now it is time for selfless nuts to take charge.

You buy a car for transport, not to live at the gas station. Likewise, you earn money to access essentials, not to live at the shopping mall.

Fortune without love is sheer curse,
For life’s true blessing is love alone.
Live to love and love to live,
With this as motto all good is honed.
They say you can’t live on love alone,
And indeed it’s true to its factual core.
But green of dollar without green of heart,
Grows on us like toxic mold.
Too much of dollar can kill a person,
Just like too little causes starvation.
Use money like you use your car,
To go places, not to live at the gas station.
Put love and life above all else.
You’ll know what’s sense, what’s nonsense.

Smoking is good for the planet,
For it screws with the lungs.
Alcohol is good for the planet,
For it screws with the brain.
Bullets are good for the planet,
They riddle the body with holes.
Bombs are good for the planet,
They blow up all, body and soul.
Autocracies are good for the planet,
They cause civilizations to fall.
Mindless tech is good for the planet,
Our biggest wonder will be our downfall.
Whatever kills the humans, heals the planet.
Forget AI, human greed is the biggest threat.

Be a gentle giant like the elephant,
not an opportunistic carnivore like the wolf.
The elephant doesn’t harm anyone
to prove its greatness, while the wolf
doesn’t think twice to devour another wolf.

Greatness unfolds through gentleness,
Illumination unfolds through expansion.
Coldness is the mark of cowardly animal,
Cruelty is cover for beastly degeneration.

Worst of all carnivores are the humans,
There is no end to their appetite.
Animals no longer partake once they are full,
While human greed knows no sane height.

More clothes, more cars, more cash,
Just how much will you consider enough!
Till you put a cork on cocky abundance,
Not felicity but disparity wreaks havoc.

Savagest carnivore of all is the human.
Uncorked materialism is new cannibalism.
