Lyrics:

Wadda we want?
What can we get?
What gives us worth?
Let’s take the earth

We want money
We seek gold
We want credit
Oh we’re sold

Give us phones
Give us jewels
Give us brand bags
Give us shoes

Give us cars
Give us bikes
Give us guns
Give us likes

We want power
We chase fame
We want all
To know our name

Because we want it
We deserve it
If we can hold it
Then we need it

Give us girls
Give us guys
Give us love
That we define

Give us toys
On a screen
Give us worlds
For us to dream

Let us hear
All the music
Let us be
The greatest artist

Make us pretty
Make us buff
Let the world
Gawk at us

Give us food
Give us plenty
Let us all
Fill the belly

See our skills
See our story
Look at us
Give us glory

We are gods
The world is ours
Give it all
We’re the rulers

Except we’re not
We’re merely mortal
We came from dust
And shall return

We are a speck
On a tiny rock
And we will die
Bound by the clock

We will stand
Before the Judge
Who will ask
What we have done

How have we used
What we’ve been given?
How did we do
With our mission?

Fame and riches
Likes and pleasure
Zeroes in the bank
Worldly treasure

It’s all a vapor
Sand through a sieve
Water through a cloth
Smoke through a weave

What do you love?
Things or people?
Your own desires?
Or something greater?

Do you seek
What is eternal?
Can you reject
What is carnal?

Will you live
For the here and now?
Or will you look
For heaven’s features?

Will you live
For none but me?
Or will you give to God
In humility?

All earth’s riches
Will burn to ashes
Nothing left
But what you bring

The soul can’t carry
Cash and gold
Of food and drink
It can’t take hold

All the sculpting
Of the body
Will wither up
And turn dusty

All our trophies
And our diplomas
All our records
It decomposes

This whole world
And all its treasures
Will fade away
Before what’s better

This life is not about
What we want
We are here
By the Creator’s thought

All we have
Is borrowed tools
A sample given
To test our views

We will stand
Before the Lord
What have you
That God will value?
