Sacred Oath - "Root of All Evil" (lyric video)

As I contemplate
A world of love and hate
Of man against man
I wonder if this could be the end
Of a planet in decay
Is mankind to blame
For abusing our freedoms
And grafting the root of all evil?

Money
Power
Or animal desire
Ego
Hatred
Some say we’re all born wicked
Lazy
Crazy
In acts of desperation
Is greed
The creed
Of a bankrupt nation?

We’re all looking for paradise
In the arms of a god
But we’re living in the paradigm
Of a lightning rod

In our epitaph
Who will have the last laugh
As our bones turn to dust
And our apples ripen to a red rust?
We live what we believe
Our faith too blind to see
We gave away all our freedoms
And there lies the root of all evil.
Root of all evil
Root of all evil

Envy
Anger
Depravities of hunger
Pride
Vainglory
All tell the human story
Murder
For hire
Of these tales we never tire
We sold
Our souls
For eternal fire

In our epitaph
Who will have the last laugh
As our bones turn to dust
And our apples ripen to a red rust?
We lived what we believed
Our faith too blind to see
We gave away all our freedoms
And there lies the root of all evil
Root of all evil
Root of all evil
