THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL


Everybody wants it, we need it.

people cant live without it.

without it we cannot survive.

one can become famous with it.

 

Even God our father warns us to becareful with it.

It tears family apart,

cause nation to fight nation.

on it mankind depend and he defend.

 

yet it is what it is, the root and truth of all evil.

It is money.
