Greed

A serpent lurking underneath,

Amongst his brethren

He never sleeps

On his skin lies dwell

The more he has

The less he’s satisfied

Greed

A killer amongst men,

His daggers pierce deeper than most

His voice is disguised in honey

Beware of these tools

His name alone is a trap

Lions embrace his traits.

Greed

Serpents in sheep clothes,

They’re but my enemies

In his domain, good men vanished

Like wolves, he attacks

I wish my soul bare his entrance.

Greed

The youngest of 7,

These brethren are destructive

Their mission is but of havoc

Havoc beyond redemption

Greed leaves you empty.
