Still chasing nickels I appear to be well off

Deceived by appearance, fellows beg for shares

I am only learning to live, while surviving

 

Leads in my lane still hop from coin source to another

If it ain’t for money than what? I wondered

Turns out there’s mental health and mutual respect

 

The capitalism path I solidly believed is fading in trail

Counting down to letting go should it not pour

I cannot hang on to silvery wins and shameful loses
