I have got to get out of this store
There must be a way to leave this bullshit behind
I'm beginning to believe I'll always be poor
But a fortune will never buy peace of mind

I cannot win my internal war
Inside is a battle between conservative and liberal
And there is a world of trouble outside the door
Which make all my problems seem so trivial

I'm always climbing but I never rise above
The selfish desire for things to possess
I'm not even sure what I'm in pursuit of
Money has never been my measure of success
