it's about not being ruled by money- allowing the accumulation of "wealth" keep you from the true treasures of life. "i hurry through my life never stopping to see how beautiful it was meant to be"- busy acquiring more money but missing out on life w/ family, friends.. "i'm just a prisoner in a kings disguise"- trapped by the need to acquire more, but at a cost.. you're rich but not happy- fame and fortune but not being w/ those you love. as you try to get more.; giving up what "you" want to do and doing what others direct you to do to achieve those money goals. (the search for the money tree) |
