The Influence

lately i've been thinking
maybe i need a brand new plan
maybe i need to start focusing
at the situation that's at hand
but i cannot concentrate
no i keep getting distracted
and its hard to walk away from you
cause i find you so attractive
wishing for you to notice me
i know i'm nothing special
and all i can get is less
but i'm not looking just to settle
maybe were not meant to be
but i know we can make it work
we'll get through these bitter times
whether we have bags full of riches or dirt
look at me and promise
you won't succumb to earthly desires
i know your growing weary
and i too am also tired
one day i'll make it worth it
you'll love me just the same
we'll have wealth and gold and money
and no reason to complain
as for now i just wish
you would love me though i'm poor
my love for you is priceless
but you still beg for more
i've made my self evaluation
and i'm starting to improve
i've got everything on the line
and nothing more to lose
soon i will be prosperous
and i wonder if you'll love me
or if i will just be an atm
convenient for your funding
