I thought money brought happiness
But I've realized why
They tell us that money
Is the root to all evilIt destroys families
You have too much and
Everyone has their hand out
Everyone feels entitled
As if you owe themIt can destroy you
Don't even know
Who's really there for you
If money does good,
Then maybe I'm a foolIt does evil things too
More, more, more
We keep begging for more
Because what we have is never enoughPlenty of people
Won the lottery
And regretted it
Wanted to end their life
Cause this moneyDidnt make their life
Any easier
Thought their problems were solved
But those cuts just got deeperDon't you know
With more money,
Comes more problems
You're a financial target
Don't you get that?You have so much money
Can you lend a helping hand
Actually wait no,
Could you buy me a Benz?Come on...we're family, we're friends
Family doesn't let family stay broke
And now everyone is looking
At you, like you are the popeAnd now your broke,
Trying to help everyone that there is
With there things,
And when you need help,
Where are they?
Gone againEventually the money dissapears
It goes away, you've got to run out
Eventually somedayYou think living lavish
Is a must?
Think you'll have friends
But when your broke
Their gone like dustBelieve me when I say it
I shouldn't have to explain it
With more money,
Comes more problemsAnd eventually those problems
You cant solve em
Thought it would bring you happiness
That's such a shame
Should of listened the first time
But it's true till this dayMoney
Is the root to all evil
