It breaks my heart everyday,
To see the world, go this way.
Where money triumphs over humanity
Each of us loosing sanity.
 
I do not claim to be a saint,
I do wish to enjoy the world’s bests.
I want to own all things money can buy,
But never at the cost of humanity.
 
When a doctor turns a patient away,
I wonder where is humanity.
Just because he can’t afford the treatment,
Does he deserve to be dead?
 
Poor students who can’t afford tuition,
Don’t they deserve education?
Why do schools turn them away?
Is it always all about money?
 
Food and medicines are adulterated,
This insanity has to be dreaded.
Oh god! Where is humanity?
Where’s our ethics and dignity?
 
It breaks my heart everyday,
To see the world, go this way.
Where money triumphs over humanity,
Each of us loosing sanity.
