|| Is it really about that, though?
Passion, Or Money?

That's a question we all seem to be asking,

but was it ever really about that?

People long for something,

anything;

but not all of humanity is fortunate enough for that.

Look to your left,

then to your right.

Is this world what you want?

What you seek?

Do we look happy?

I fear not.

We all have passion,

we all have the desire of riches

but we can't have both.

The only people who can both,

are those who grew up privilieged.

Those who grew up on the North side of life,

but for the South side;

Passion is a myth

and Money is survival.

So the question you ask me tonight,

' ' Passion, Or Money? ' '

my friend will answer,

Survival.

Whatever it takes to provide,

and to get by.

Survival.
