Just paid down several thousand in credit card debt,
An expensive lesson, hope I never ever forget!
The next time I "Charge it to the game",
Will recall how that debt weight hang heavy like a chain,
Around a young elephant's neck, swear I'll never feel the same,
Nor be tempted to up them limits,
And be lured by low interest rates, points, games, and gimmicks,
Decades later paying hundreds a month for credit bills dead broke,
Then I realized that my chain was replaced with a rope,
All this time, I've been blind!
Sell yo' stocks, sell them rocks, free yo' behind and cut that line!
Debt is slavery, chains replaced with a card, F#&k AMEX, Visa, Discover, and MasterCard!
