	Story Behind the Song Performed 12/13/01 at the Hamilton St Cafe & Stage. An assessment of the greediness of people in modern society, and the skewed perspectives that drive us to hate and war in the name of money and social standing. Lyrics Looking out upon the streets I sigh and hang my head The people rush from place to place but in their eyes they're dead Dead set on making money...just what has become of need? All they want is excess and all that motivates is greed! And all they say is "I want more!" They think they deserve more But they don't understand What this life is for People losing faith in God and in their fellow man We cling to our possessions and we fight like warring clans The object of our worship has become the dollar bill And if we want it bad enough it can even make us kill And they keep saying "I want more!" They still think that they deserve more But they don't understand What this life is for Forget about your brother, he will only hold you back? Step over your own mother to keep your eyes on the right track? Chase your wealth and luxury, the survivors are the strong? Forget about one another? Why can't we see something's wrong?! When all we hear is "I want more!" They think they deserve more But they don't understand What this life is for Losing my morality's the only thing I fear There's got to be some changes made, the time is drawing near If we don't have our self-respect, this ignorance will thrive We've got to stand up now to keep the human race alive! And stop saying "I want more!" They think they deserve more They don't understand What this life is for
