 Greed got the best of him(True story)
Greed got the best of him
Written by D.A.M
March 5, 2007 (7:51am)

Greed got the best of him

And he didn't care
what he was going to do
even though he knew
that it was wrong

Before his Mom died
she had told him to make sure
that everything was split
half and half

He just didn't care
and he kept trying
to get his Mom
to sign some papers
on her death bed

Because he wanted
full control


He  sold his soul
to the devil that day
after his Mom died

Because he wouldn't
listen to his Moms last dying words
more or less her last wishes

Because all he cared about
was becoming  a millionaire

And he wouldn't share

So he decided
after his Mom had died
that he would take
what ever he wants

Because he didn't care
anymore

And now for
the rest of his life
he will be cursed

Because he sold his soul
to the devil that day

Because
greed got the best of him
