The Wind Shall Turn

The Wind Shall Turn 

You're rich and you show it so that others might see

You think that your wealth can intimidate me

Well I want you to know that I'd hate to be you

As I could not do to others all the hurt that you do

You reap the rewards from another mans seeds

You'd take his hard labour to enhance your own needs

But your needs they are pointless, they are not aimed to please

You'd rather buy a new car than to help cure disease 

When you are a-sleepin' do you dream of you wealth?

Do you tally your fortune? That you keep for yourself

You just don't realise that you could help a soul

If you hadn't made greed your life's ultimate goal

But you will die the same, and your plastic will melt

It's a pity you'll not know just how burning felt

Your ashes will blow... And the wind it shall turn

Then you'll know what it's like when your spirit returns

You will wished that you'd helped more in your previous life

That you'd helped save another instead of going under a knife

You paid to get ugly and I hope you do see

That your coffin was not worth the life of a tree

And I hope that you feel it, that every tear counts

The money you squandered in obscene amounts

I hope never find you when you hold out your hand

And those pains deep inside make you then understand
