Greed x Self Worth

It took some time for me to know my worth It wasn't noticed first Accumulated from the moment I was Wait (weight) Sort of birthed Shaped, and formed to work Remain there like I'm frozen in vein purpose Hopeless and stained Burdened by famed curses Broken to (into) change Generations of service To cope with the pain But our focus is strained A new direction every moment We don't even fucking pose the same So who determines the shift of personal value As it grows on either end of the spectrum 'Till it's incalculable The further you go Hue tones incompatible And more you try controlling Leads you worse into the rabbit hole Yet on the surface, still no scratches show Though signs of wear have become fashionable If not here, then international Only difference is the shipping & handling 'Cause it's fragile Just know I still gotta have it though When everything that you've seen glitter ain't gold Do you believe with a tiny piece of your soul That it's, even worth it Or start agreeing the tolls Taking hold Until it swallows you whole When everything that you've seen glitter ain't gold Do you believe with a tiny piece of your soul That it's, even worth it Or start agreeing the tolls Taking hold Until it swallows you whole Now put the blasphemy aside Or how haphazardly I've tried To grow another's worth inside It's all an act to feed the pride Only need it once, applied You'll keep repeating 'til it thrives And you're anemic Even your own blood'll leave you dry Couldn't believe it I guess we never do 'till we conceive it And common sense is empty Used to take it, 'cause we'd leave it But now it's cheapened Is it a change if it ain't secret 'Cause as of recent I'm feelin' closer to the deep end And match the sequence As it unfolds, and starts to seem as If I'm depleted Yet still upholding what I've been Reaching for And it's not an even score It's gotta be something more 'Cause honestly if that's your best Then obviously Less is more, won't settle for it Still stepping towards Questions left unanswered Rhetorically guessing weapons formed Stressing decompression I've stretched to ignore is Pressing from every direction Yet quite impressive I'm still collecting more When everything that you've seen glitter ain't gold Do you believe with a tiny piece of your soul That it's, even worth it Or start agreeing the tolls Taking hold Until it swallows you whole When everything that you've seen glitter ain't gold Do you believe with a tiny piece of your soul That it's, even worth it Or start agreeing the tolls Taking hold Until it swallows you whole
