Expressing gratitude for having experienced material wealth.
From the roses to the diamonds
Enumerating possessions, such as roses and diamonds.
The cars and house and (Oh)

I been many places
Highlighting a well-traveled life.
Most people only dreamed of
Reflecting on visiting places others can only dream of.
Surrounded by many faces yet I still lacked love
Despite being surrounded by many, expressing a lack of genuine love.
You're my riches
