You are so high up every mountain on earth Full of swiftness and burning faith You are a hawk flying in the sky beneath the clouds On a hunt of freshly fleshed and boned preys You are fond of tall buildings and lights Hectic days and dancing nights Loud music and enchanting words And how pencils feel underneath you fingers It was all seized when your father said you can get what you want When all your long dreams became vital And you devoted all your youth to it You discerned where you will stand and belong The flaw in you is that you don’t divide your heart When you lose one dime that’s when you remember to look straight When you love you lose focus But your best revenge is success You sound so invincible when you speak You are too busy scheming the colors of your mask Drying your eyes every morning and straightening your lashes Just because you stray from betraying yourself before the whole world You tumble so fast that’s why you’re too broken to be mended Those platinum are way too hard to reach You muse to get your fingertips on them to feel more expensive For they will light your skin and glow your eyes You loved it You chased it And tonight you’ve got it Money smells so fine, doesn’t it?
