Chorus :
Money's the root of all evil but we still need to eat from the branch of the tree / We seek the answer where God will grant us the key / No other race on this planet has it harder than blacks / We struggle as humans , yes but, swallow the facts / you might say that we have equal rights but let's just see / it's the low quality of life expectancy that effs with me / I'm grateful I get to write about it but it doesn't make my day / My name's Moeketsi Motlhakoana and I was named by Grace
Verse ! :
I'm into all that weird stuff and I'll chug from beer mugs / but take some time to think like once a year cuz / I won't complain bout others mishaps make diss tracks bout this that / I spit that piff that makes kats say that sh**'s phat / I won't be forking over everything I've ever earned / You been broke your whole life you'll never learn / sh** cascades n***a / you bragging bout how you smashing fat a**es but all you do is pa** aids n***a / I don't think I'm better than you but I know that you don't care to know / how you have kids with three different chicks and still live at home / your clothes are dirty close to thirty and never worked / or even started your own sh** tell me what exactly are the perks / what you gonna do once that free cash stops coming / turn to crime murder guys until the cops come in / I ain't been inside but prison life isn't nice / I'll give advice to all including myself until we get it right
Chorus :
Money's the root of all evil but we still need to eat from the branch of the tree / We seek the answer where God will grant us the key / No other race on this planet has it harder than blacks / We struggle as humans , yes but, swallow the facts /
You might say that we have equal rights but let's just see / it's the low quality of life expectancy that effs with me / I'm grateful I get to write about it but it doesn't make my day / My name's Moeketsi Motlhakoana and I was named by Grace
Verse 2 :
Yo where you been all night / and look at you there's no reason for us to see your thighs with your weave all tight / I know you wanna look good but you attracting the evil type / you don't need more hype / you're an A plus kinda chick / at least you were now you eight months yo time has flipped / it's worse for the shawtys coz after that they're damaged goods / her man is shook but it doesn't compare to the girl and how much panic's put / into her mind, you don't know who the father is / do you have any idea about being a single mother and how hard it is / you don't have a job a decent qualification / my young teenager you don't even want applications / drug addiction kicks in how crazy / so what if I drink and smoke while I'm pregnant it's my baby / I'm in j-section stressin till my hair falls out / Hi my name is Blessing, welcome to Royal
Chorus :
Money's the root of all evil but we still need to eat from the branch of the tree / We seek the answer where God will grant us the key / No other race on this planet has it harder than blacks / We struggle as humans , yes but, swallow the facts /

Verse 3 :
Escape the cycle but faith in our hearts is an advantage / the peeps I'm tryna reach don't have a desired grasp of the language / and I ain't their saviour I just know how to get on a beat / I ain't doing nothing to help don't give a bum sh** on the streets / Honestly I'm tryna change my situation / pay my way to independence made up by little patience / westernisation has nothing I wanna do for cash except rap / or maybe become an astronomer but I can forget that / even by overseas n******gs we Africans ain't seen as sh** / I dunno any n***a anywhere who raps as clean as this / Tyler Durden was right our war's a spiritual one / Insh'Allah I'll be here for a long time, never finishing son / blessed are the peace makers not those who're giving us guns / you think you'll change anything I have a feeling, a hunch / I gotta get up off my a** and change my ways / I am the ImproPoe, and I was named by Grace
