Sell sell sell

Buy buy buy

Dry the well then

Bye bye bye

It don't come with you when you-

Things

Bits

Baubles

Novelties

To those who aren't us don't mean a thing

Odd fascination on the finer things

End of the day they're still just things

A measure of worth ain't what stays on earth to be sorted, sifted, gifted, and given new meaning,

Ownership fleeting when that timer rings

Up to the ceiling in it

Pure maximalist living

Took from the tree till the tree stopped giving

Hope a new one grows in its place, God willing

Will it

Kill you to give it some room to grow

Spread its leaves

Leave well enough alone

Isn't

It pointless since this ain't our forever home?

Like a dragon's hoard and no accord according to the board of directors and investors

Yesterday's plummet from the summit was just something we could ill afford or stand to endure

Gotta sell more cancer to offset the cure

Pure hearts get forced in the rat race or face that manufactured disgrace from the masses asking "where your bread at" while sharing bus passes

"where your head at?"

Gotta pull it out your posterior focal point locked exterior

Chalk it up to no one really gives a rat a slice of cheese

Especially when he's in need

He's seen purely as a fiend even though it's that same red blood that bleeds

Life could be better if he had more cheddar

All he's shown is that he just didn't have enough

Things

Bits

Baubles

Novelties

To those who aren't us don't mean a thing

Odd fascination on the finer things

End of the day they're still just things

A measure of worth ain't what stays on earth to be sorted, sifted, gifted, and given new meaning,

Ownership fleeting when that timer rings

Possession carries many meanings

Do you possess or are you possessed by possessions

Retail therapy sessions, order now don't ask any questions

Eventually you'll learn your lesson or sink deep into depression

Is it everything you hoped it'd be?

Do all these Prada products give you peace?

Do those Cartier lenses really give you clarity?

Cure for any ailment but a failed payment plan

Try to flip a trinket make garage bands on the weekends

To redeem your descent in the sinkhole

Make ends meet

Though come to think

The goals are at odds with the plans

The means are at odds with the ends

Holes and flaws all created by the hands of men

And not a one of 'em can tell the beginning from the end

Sell sell sell

Buy buy buy

Dry the well then

Bye bye bye

It don't come with you when you die

Count that cash like days gone by

Sell sell sell

Buy buy buy

Dry the well then

Bye bye bye

It don't come with you when you die

I remember selling my lunch, young entrepreneur

Hiking prices up on his fellow peers

Just to make a few bucks

All in the name of souvenirs from Toys R Us

Ads mixed into the kids cartoons

A dangling carrot for impressionable youth

Don't beg for only one when your friend got two

Then give credit to Santa he drives sales through roofs

That's why the Easter bunny comes to visit you

That's why next year you need a new costume

Holidays celebrate pushing profits too

And children are easy to sell candy to

Like candy from a baby

Keep pumping money to the trivial

Here we go

Need a brand new iPhone

Same old material

And it's all faux

I pray one day we can finally tell

This a third world country with a Gucci belt

That's a sentiment lately I've truly felt

Nothing is sacred but the newly built

Just wait till they find out that the cow can melt

It's recycled riches of past things failed

What a vicious cycle just borrowed wealth

And a closed loop to boot lest you sell yourself

And you will fall short

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall

Humpty Dumpty got the best seat to watch the stock market fall

Collapse in on itself

That inner circle just the fourth of hell
