Selfless Heart

In this world of the bottom line,

Where everybody chases the dollar sign ,

Look out for numero uno, what’s in it for me,

What have you done for me lately, tell me what’s the catch,

I want something for nothing with no strings attached,

Give me what’s mine and give me a guarantee.

It’s time to remember the values,

Now that we’re doing real well,

Forget about all the incentives,

We can’t only think of ourselves

Chorus: Don’t do it for the reward

Don’t do it for the glory

In your heart lies the feelings that are true.

Don’t do it for the advantage

Don’t do it for the control

Just do it cause it’s the right thing to do.

Now you got two sets of books and it’s just not right,

One you show the world the others out of sight,

You just gotta stop it’s gonna come around in the end,

You’ve got a profit margin, that’s way too high,

You’re leading a life that’s one big lie,

You can’t always take sometimes ya gotta give.

Don’t tell me it’s way out of proportion,

Don’t tell me it’s not what it seems,

You’re entitled to have a fair portion,

You can’t take it to the extreme.

We don’t need the reward,

We don’t need the glory,

It’s not the prize, but the deeds that we accrue.

We don’t want the advantage,

We don’t want the control,

The selfless heart is the key to all that’s true.

Always hear you talkin’ ’bout the good old days.

Never coming back unless we change our ways.

It’s time to remember the values,

It’s time to answer the bell,

Forget about all the incentives, We can’t only think of ourselves. ….Chorus…..
