| I think it's about a chistiam actor who has alot of money and is always trying to get more and the bible is saying that the things that you accumulate on this earth don't mattter but he dosn't listen to it and the reason I think he's an actor is because of that verse "Masquerading as a man with a reason, My charade is the event of the season And if I claim to be a wise man, well It surely means that I don't know " | |
