Entombed by Wealth: A Grim Tale of Greed's Cost

Lyrics

Building up your empire by any means necessary

Establishing a powerful domain using any necessary methods

Your only goal was to aspire

Your sole aim was to aspire or achieve

To a selfish life devoid of charity

To lead a self-centered life without showing any charity


Never caring for those in need

Disregarding the needs of others

Accumulation of assets driven by greed

Amassing possessions driven by excessive desire for wealth

Your health has failed you in your later years

Your health deteriorated as you aged

A corpse to be stricken with fear

You face death with fear as a lifeless body


Your palace is now your tomb,

Your extravagant dwelling has become your grave

But no one will mourn at your grave

No one will grieve or feel sorrow at your burial place

Entombed by wealth, by greed consumed,

Trapped and overwhelmed by wealth and greed

Death is the debt you must pay

Death is the inevitable consequence of your actions


The shriveled shells of kings

Kings, once mighty, now withered and decaying

Rotting in their crypts

Decomposing in their burial chambers

All your wealth you leave behind,

All the riches you've accumulated will remain as you pass away

Your legacy doesn't mean shit

Your achievements and wealth hold no significance or value


Clutching your scepter, adorned with jewels

Holding onto a symbol of power adorned with riches

Here lies the end of a pitiful rule

Marking the end of a pitiful reign or leadership

A decaying corpse cloaked in excess

A deteriorating body covered in excessive opulence

From avaricious affluence to nothingness

From an insatiable desire for wealth to absolute nothingness
