Blessed are the Poor By S. A. David

Blessed to live below breadline
Blessed to be at the bottom
Blessed to be a beggar
Blessed to be below the breadline

The high and mighty ride on them
They scoop spittle on them
Poverty is a curse
Prosperity is privilege

More than half of the population
Is blessed with the blessedness
The blessedness of seeing heaven
The blessedness of the blessing

Why live in earthly mansions?
Why buy all the pent houses?
Why belong to the big shots' class?
When being rich is cursedness

Blessed are the poor
Cursed are the rich
They shall see heaven
They shall see hell

Why live in million dollar mansions
When you shall burn in furnaces?
Why eat in the cuisine of cuisines
When you shall starve for eternity?

They live below the breadline
And them live above the pizza line
They eat dust
But them live to eat

Blessed are the beggars
Blessed be the destitute
Blessed are the poor
God is their father.
