lyrics

Since the dawn of time
we as a species needed to climb
to find a way to evolve
to create a pure resolve

to trade for shelter,
the only way for a dweller
in order to yield power
even in the darkest hour

we sure made sure that we would have a fair trade system
or at least something that could win our intuition
cleverly enough some trap-rules were inserted within
so that only the tough could rule with a fake wisdom

Moneyshit
This is it
Moneyshit
There's nothing to it
Moneyshit
We are all ruled by it
Moneyshit
A bunch of slaves is what we are

So it evolved
from stuff to coin
raw metal, silver and gold
untill we brought the paper unfold

we didn't know what we were doing
unleashing the monster we were brewin
from that point in time, nothing was ever the same
Man vs Man, Woman vs Woman, Family Vs Family, the World vs itself
the grab of power, the eternal fight for the land, oil, possessions
and materialistic endeavours
the rich to the poor,
some working like slaves to get money to survive
while others do nothing and live in luxury all the time
Women and Men selling their bodies for the paper
the only regulator
Corrupting justice and honesty
Corrupting priests and judges and loyars
Fuck!
as Mr. Ice-T so eloquently put it
"Money - Root of all evil"

Moneyshit
This is it
Moneyshit
There's nothing to it
Moneyshit
We are all ruled by it
Moneyshit
A bunch of slaves is what we are
