Benjamins broke Franklin's heart



Growing up he knew a lot of things contributed to define survival. 
He always felt good about himself without feeling the need for anyone's approval. 
He had no idea society was waiting to break him down. 
They told him, "To be a king in life you only needed money to wear a crown.

" He started chasing it. His life became all about the "Benjamins" 

He never cared about the other things in life. He ignored a balanced meal and fed on only vitamins. He fell in love and made the "Benjamins" his wife. Now, he has houses but has no home. 

Fast cars but the journey never ends. Bags of money yet he is very poor. 

Wears a Paul Newman Rolex Daytona but still can't tell the time. 
With all the designer clothes, he still feels naked. 
He drinks the best of wine but he is always thirsty. 
Quality footwears but he feels he walks in shoes made of thorns. 
He cries everyday because the "Benjamins" broke his heart.
