You rise much higher than Icarus
because the sun belongs to you.
Gold will beat your feverish temple
while bridges will thrive in your pocket.
They harp
that money can’t buy happiness.
You know that this wonder
only flatters the pioneers, the greats.
Not amazing
to note that the preachers who hammer
this adage
have their wallet
empty as much as their eyes.
You rise much higher than Icarus
because the sun belongs to you.
It must be obvious.
And it’s for you the whole substance :
They can stay
on the ground floor of their ladder,
they will not take the risk of a big fall.
No, ho no you don’t
discredit the facts
but the weaks.
Let the sheeps graze.
The more they’ll be fat, the more you’ll enjoy.
You rise much higher than Icarus
because the sun belongs to you.
Gold will beat your feverish temple
while bridges will thrive in your pocket.
