Paris (Rapper) - Root Of All Evil lyrics

[Verse 1] Who is it? The mothaf**in' D-O-G Still spittin' game over tight-a** beats Get the money 'cause the fame ain't nothin' to me I be the tightest one servin' but it's never for free I seen many die on these streets fo' sho' Over money, wrong looks, c**aine, and ho Where friendship blows in the wind like dust See, they used to be yo homies but they ready to bust You can't trust no man, but some might try See them come, see them go, see them drop like fly How many of them fail, just a few succeed Where fantasy is real and what's real is a dream? And I been in this game and I done dirt, too Still down for the struggle but I can't be fooled Every brother ain't a brother, ain't a damn thing new Need to take your Million Man March a** to school And tell [Hook] See it's the root of all evil, the story is told And you never really know if they your friends or foes So cold up on these streets, I seen the evil that men do Will money be the reason that the murder continue? See it's the root of all evil, the story is told And you never really know if they your friends or foes So cold up on these streets, I seen the evil that men do Will money be the reason that the murder continue? [Verse 2] They say change is the only thing that stays the same Take a look around and see how many remain I'm a vet up in this here, still ten years deep Gettin' cash, spittin' game over tight-a** beats Everybody nowadays wanna come up quick Young soldiers hit licks who can s** on dicks But dirt gun in the dark comes the light Young n***a got AIDS 'cause the kitty was right Now what you know, and what you see? And where you from, and who you be? 'Cause everybody got skeletons in the cut And peace to the homies in the pen locked up I said, it's like a jungle sometimes, it made me wonder How I keep from going under, who gone be the one the Change things 'cause it seem ain't no hope Scratch his name off the list if he come up short And tell [Hook] See it's the root of all evil, the story is told And you never really know if they your friends or foes So cold up on these streets, I seen the evil that men do Will money be the reason that the murder continue? See it's the root of all evil, the story is told And you never really know if they your friends or foes So cold up on these streets, I seen the evil that men do Will money be the reason that the murder continue? [Verse 3] They say the world keep turnin' and life goes on Some others start slippin' while some stay strong The old pain goes away with the pa**age of time P-Dog is on the mic, still spittin' the rhyme And if you ask me, you know I couldn't be much help Real n***as understand, gotta do for yourself 'Cause ain't nothin' comin' if you don't apply And don't nobody really care if n***as' livin' or dyin' I fold up them up like a crease, breeze through the weak fleas On my sack gets scratched, now who's who in this rap game Late pa** on my haters 'cause I still blitz them Shoulda kept ya mouth shut 'cause you got it twisted Real soldiers don't die, we just re-adjust While some might try, they can't touch this Street soldier with a capital S P-Dog sayin', "f** the rest!" Tell me is it really real [Hook] See it's the root of all evil, the story is told And you never really know if they your friends or foes So cold up on these streets, I seen the evil that men do Will money be the reason that the murder continue? See it's the root of all evil, the story is told And you never really know if they your friends or foes So cold up on these streets, I seen the evil that men do Will money be the reason that the murder continue? [Hook] See it's the root of all evil, the story is told And you never really know if they your friends or foes So cold up on these streets, I seen the evil that men do Will money be the reason that the murder continue? See it's the root of all evil, the story is told And you never really know if they your friends or foes So cold up on these streets, I seen the evil that men do Will money be the reason that the murder continue? [Outro] See it's the root of all evil
