"possess" in Song Lyrics

See how artists use "possess" in their lyrics:

When will I finally get to rest? Through this suppression They punish the people that's askin' questions And those that possess, steal from the ones without possessions The message I stress, to make it stop study your lessons Don't settle for less, even the genius asks-es questions
Once it's too late, gotta learn to live with regrets You used to hold me, told me that I was the best Anything in this world I want I could possess All that made me want is all that I could get In order to survive, gotta learn to live with regrets when I was young
To make mountains fall But if I lack love then I am nothin' at all I can give away everything I possess But left without love, then I have no happiness I know I'm imperfect and not without sin
