Root of Evil Lyrics

In the beginning Man acted on instinct
For survival, pleasures and peace
The weak bodied but strong in the mind
Had to control the beasts
With laws
With laws
With laws
To keep from being trampled the weak found a tool
The mystery of death
Results in consequences
If you kill, if you rape, if you steal
You will suffer, when you die
If you urge to commit suicide
You will burn in afterlife
Invention of religion
Invention of oppression
Root of Evil
Root of Evil

The burden of heaven
Long enough
The blindfold binds us
The hidden truth, will set us free
Our faith, is used to keep us grounded
The greatest ruse in history
Long enough
The blindfold binds us
The hidden truth, will set us free
Our faith, is used to keep us grounded
The greatest ruse in history
Invention of religion
Invention of oppression
Root of Evil
Invention of oppression
Root of Evil
