Текст песни ROOT OF IT ALL - Skeptik

If there′s enough funds available to put to the cause
Then there's a human being willing to commit to the clause
There′s not a task in the world that there isn't a price to
A simple 9-5 or taking innocent life
Do the math from addition, division, subtract or multiply
A dollar amount could force a morality nullified
The sickest commitments carried out on a daily basis - for what
A piece of paper branded with dead president's faces
We put a value on literally everything we see
From a bottle of water to fostering human beings
It′s obscene, borderline offensive that we′re trained to dream
That we'll live in this system submissive to that money green
I mean how silly is it, seriously, hoarding colored paper
That′s legitimately worth about as much as water vapor
Doesn't matter if you have a lot or little at all
The simple fact remains that
Money is the root of it all

Money is the root of it all
Money is the root of it all
The root of it all
Money is the root of it all

And there′s a whole world on the other side of your door
But while we're starving the homeless
We′re fronting cash for a war
We make investments into image
And Investments into self
And invest in stock, hoping that it leads to greater wealth
But we'll never be free from that inanimate object
We hold and fold together to fit it into a pocket
The ones who have the most of it in essence have control
But don't realize that evil lies in presence of that gold
What′s the goal, get enough stacked up so that in time
All those bank accounts can be the furthest thing away from mind
Why should paper be the driving force behind what we do
We work, pay taxes and try to be okay with nothing new
All the same, it′s always a game
Some people have mastered
The code to get a bigger sum to hoard and collect faster
Whether you be up at the peak or whether you fall
The simple fact remains that
Money is the root of it all

Money is the root of it all
Money is the root of it all
The root of it all
Money is the root of it all
