I've been holding this one back but **** it might as well drop a diamond every now an then....

They say "money is the root of all evil"...
  Which I can see the confusion because it makes sense that when cents is involved it usually call's for a deceitful illusion...
      No that ain't right, let me try again..

They say "money is the root of all evil" which makes sense if your fake,
   Since anytime evils involved it usually revolves around people....

   But what's "evil"?
  It's funny we'd blame the money and not our need for change.. ..
  Given the currency of our situation you can almost see the green in our veins... .

  Excuse me,
See the greed in my veins just wants to live free but these politician's rather see me in chain's,
  See me in pain,
Starving to death in these streets
They wanna see me be tamed but what do they say????
.......
."Not a snowballs chance in hell" you'll ever come to see me that way,
  No not today,
    Not tomorrow or even next year..
  I'm not like you,
I'm not like any other dude or your closest of peer's,
  Not even if they switched up their mood, found a new groove and started facing their fear's..
  I am the only me... ..
An a hundred million years from today that'll be something the world will still see.
Follow me!!!!! Hope you liked the read! I'll be posting more often. Thanks for your time!!!!
