You've always been so greedy,
wanting everything you see-
money, power, shiny toys
but none of this is free.

You hurt the ones around you
by taking every share-
you leave them naught but wishes,
and you don't even care.

And you're losing more than gaining,
for "things" can't fill that hole-
in trying to have everything,
you've only lost your soul.

Greed's a deadly sin, you see,
in truth, the root of all-
pride is greed for virtue,
and goes before a fall.

Lust is greed for touches,
and sloth the greed for sleep-
wrath the greed for righteousness
and gluttony to eat.

Envy is the worst of all,
though easy to explain,
it's greed for what's not yours to take
and only causes pain.

I wish you'd stop and listen
to what I have to say-
take it all, but someday soon,
you will be made to pay.

There's a reason they're called "deadly" sins,
and soon you'll know it well-
when you join the others just like you,
for eternity, in hell.
