More
The more you take,
the more you need.
The less you make,
the more you
breathe.
The more you look, the tighter the chain, the more you book, the deeper the strain.
The more you crave, the more you’re caught. The more you get, the more you want.
It ain’t enough. My, my, my.
The more you win, the less you hold, the more you chase, the more you’re sold.
The more you seek, the more you’re sought. The more you think, the less you’re taught.
The more you be, the more you’re not. The more you fish, the more you’re caught.
The more you take, the more you need. The more you eat, the more you greed.
The more you strive, the less you gain, the more you reach, the more the pain.
The more you grasp, the more you won’t. The more you have, the more you don’t.
Ain’t no satisfaction. My, my, my.
The more you yearn, the more you’re bound. The more you search, the less you’re found.
The more you cling, the more you fear. The more you speak, the less you hear.
The more you fight, the less you win. The more you struggle, the less you begin.
The more you hide, the less you become. The more you rub, the more you’re numb.
The more you push, the more you spin. The more you grit, the less you grin.
The more you grasp, the more you won’t. The more you have, the more you don’t.
Can’t get no satisfaction. My, my, my.
For most of life, we spin and weave. The more we grab, the more we grieve.
Ain’t no satisfaction. My, my, my.
The less we
cling,
the more we
free.
The less we
grasp,
the more
we
receive.
For most of life, we spin and weave. The more we grab, the more we grieve.
Baby, ain’t no satisfaction. My, my, my.
No pushing, no pulling, no hustling, no money can buy, all the things I want in my eyes. I can’t get no satisfaction.

a song written by Shabazz Larkin
I wrote this song in a time where I was getting a lot of what I wanted and loosing everything I needed. I love writing music. So I pulled together this jazz collective of sound robots called Broke Jazz to help bring it to life.
