(Intro : Norman Michael)
See I ain’t got a problem with the money because we need it
But the problem lies within our flesh because we greedy
Love of the money, Love of the money
Root of all evil
Love of the money, Love of the money
(Lavoisier!)
(Verse 1: Lavoisier)
Love of the money pull out its roots
With No Compromise I’m in cahoots
I’m from where they pull out the choppers and shoot
They mind is polluted they gotta get loot
What you gon’ do when the dollar collapse
And the nation’s economy fold
Get ready to get you a chip in your hand like the book of Revelation foretold
I don’t think you understand just how perverse this is
Consumerism, Instagramming all your purchases
Materialism, egotism and narcissism
Bitter sweet that so many don’t find GOD till in prison
Believe in showing off, bragging about worldly possessions
Hashtag, #HighlyFavoured and #GODIsBlessing
Your spouse, your brother, your enemy and your neighbor
And if you got it with you don’t tell em to come back later
(Chorus: Norman Michael)
See I ain’t got a problem with the money because we need it, (I ain’t got no problem no)
But the problem lies within our flesh because we greedy
Love of the money, Love of the money
Root of all evil
Love of the money, love of the money
(JESUS)
(Verse 2: GS)
A nine to five just ain’t good enough they want that money to the ceiling
Now they mastermind on the block nightshift trying to stack couple millions
They’ll rob, steal and kill for it, they’ll trick, trap and deal for it, (Flex!)
But money comes with a thing called greed got ‘em dying trying to live for it
When you pray to GOD asking for some help are you really talking about the money?
Or the wisdom that you need before you get it so you spending to be alil honest
You just started an account for your kids, so when they get older they’ll get something from it
Now they in college, they only focus on the grades cause you took care of the money (Blessing!)
But you in love with the green, and won’t let nothing come in between
That’s probably why you and GOD are eyes asking what’s up with the KING
World tricking you, Now it’s hustling, you was liking it, now you loving it
Money brought greed, now you’re left with it, you will die with it that’s a definite
(Chorus: Norman Michael)
See I ain’t got a problem with the money because we need it, (I ain’t got no problem no)
But the problem lies within our flesh because we greedy
Love of the money, Love of the money
Root of all evil
Love of the money, love of the money
