We were wealth

Though I am grown
I am living like a child now
I wish, I want
Giving myself everything
Fearing the release
Keeping the peace

Say, for instance
I pay money for an object
Sight unseen
How is it that it speaks for me
Borrowed never earned
In debt from birth

Fill the days at any cost and spent your earnings
Ease the losses

We were wealth and we were money
Of the world and needing nothing
