Blood Money Lyrics by Johnny L

2021

{VERSE}
I'm running out of time
Wondering if I'm
All alone in the world with this state of mind
That makes me try to find
What it is inside
This society I'm living in while drunk and high
That got me wanting to escape in any way that I
Can from this land of corrupted governments and lies
I'm a fan of America but recognize
It's being run by people in a family of satanic ties
And as I analyze anyway that I can try
To describe to you why we lead the world in suicides
There's a sickness being peddled and its worldwide
Through the food we eat and our way of life that's monotonized
And consuming both you and I
Grooming future generations
Through the lies they advertise
But now its time to recognize that where all slaves
To this blood stained dollar sign
You a slave to these bloodstained dollar signs
We enslaved by these bloodstained dollar signs
You a slave to these bloodstained dollar signs
We enslaved to these bloodstained dollar signs
{CHORUS}
Blood money makes the world go round
With blood money putting you underground
In blood money were beginning to drown
From blood money overflow in each town
Blood moneys bein paid to the crown
Of blood money nations wondering how
That same blood money bein unused as a tool for our doom
Is blood money that's creating this sound
{VERSE}
So what now?
What should we do next?
To reject this way of life we were taught to respect
Like how do you really expect
A generation of consumers to consume much less
And crowds of the youth that ingest
Prescription pills in middle school
When they refuse to do tests
Yes I am the living proof that's living thru all the stress
And depression from popping pills that these quacks' suggest
It's truly grotesque how they manifest
Justifiable reasons to keep people in debt
Finding logic in bleeding people dry till their death
And denying food to the hungry while they fuel up their jets
Cause blood money makes the world go round
Cause blood money makes the world go round
Cause blood money makes the world go round
Cause blood money makes the world go round
You're a slave to these bloodstained dollar signs
We enslaved by these bloodstained dollar signs
You a slave to these bloodstained dollar signs
We enslaved to these bloodstained dollar signs
{CHORUS}
Blood money makes the world go round
With blood money putting you underground
In blood money were beginning to drown
From blood money overflow in each town
Blood moneys bein paid to the crown
Of blood money nations wondering how
That same blood money bein unused as a tool for our doom
Is blood money thats creating this sound
{VERSE}
Yo it's the art of war
Don't start one if you don't want a war
Carnivore
Eat your heart out cut short the monologue
It's like I been rapping since before
The death of dinosaurs
Real spitters extinct
After me you won't find no more
Feel the chills as they climb right up your spinal cord
Designed with flaws
But I'll persevere till I find a cause
Design a wall and imma find my way over or through it
Align the stars and imma fly away over the moon and
Continue rising and shining in unison
We using music to get through to the youth
And influence them
But in a positive manner
Provide them knowledge and answers
Cuz all this fuck shit they listen to is toxic as cancer
And it's rotting they brains
Locked in they monotonous ways
Got em nodding they heads
Unable to acknowledge they slaves
That's why knowledge is gold
Stay true and you'll conquer your goals
Cuz the second they buy you out
They gone deposit your soul
{CHORUS}
Blood money makes the world go round
With blood money putting you underground
In blood money were beginning to drown
From blood money overflow in each town
Blood moneys bein paid to the crown
Of blood money nations wondering how
That same blood money bein unused as a tool for our doom
Is blood money that's creating this sound
You're ​a slave to these bloodstained dollar signs
We enslaved by these bloodstained dollar signs
You a slave to these bloodstained dollar signs
We enslaved to these bloodstained dollar signs
