Number One Zero

So you’re the number one
And now your time has come
To be the best that you can be
You focus on delivering
How many other ones
That have come and gone before
And left behind a legacy
Of tortured souls and suffering
I guess there’s nothing left to say here

You say you’re the number one
With a smile and a loaded gun
That you wave at humanity
You’re a hero, a number one Zero

How many other ones
That have come and gone before
That left behind a legacy
That doesn’t mean a thing to me
So you’re the number one
And now your time has come to lead the way
The best way you know how
Driven by the power of greed

But can you focus on the need?
Or any other mouth to feed?
I guess there’s nothing left to say here

You’ll soon discover it was all in your mind
Universes places and times
All of these things won’t mean a thing
Only life
