Price You'll Pay

Money is the root of all evil
Brings out the worst in people
So you can take all mine away
But your soul is the price you’ll pay

Seen them come, watched them go
First to leave when your well runs low
I’m not the one to go casting stones
But I’ll be ready when the first ones thrown
I cherish my circle and keep it tight
I know my people live for truth and rights
You fool the rest but you’ll never fool I
I’ve been around the block once or twice

Don’t gain the world and lose your soul
Wisdom is more precious than any sort of silver and gold
I watch them sit upon their throne
Lies and deceit ah make it crumble to the ground
You can’t put a price on me
This no monopoly
Follow philosophy, listen to prophecy
Jah is my light so you can’t tell me fallacy
My bredren, yes it’s time to shake the dead weight
Rasta moving to the top, we never wait

Come like a shadow in the dark
So you can’t see them come
Thief up your money or them freeze you with a gun
Target the rich return it to the slums
Now the boys in blue got them on the run
This is where the desperation come from
Poverty from political corruption
Violence in the streets against your brother man
All serving the dollar illusion
