Money is Evil

So many start out good in the faith

They get good with God before it's too late 

But then one day they look to the side 

They begin to love money and say bye bye

They no longer love God 

They love money and hate God 

Their only love is themself 

They put God way up on a shelf 

"I'll talk to you later," they say 

"Maybe when I am old and gray."

They accumulate as much as they can 

Most people they really can't stand 

But they con and labor and deceive

Hoping more money they will receive 

In the end they are hated by all

They thought it was all a super fun ball

But when you only love you 

It makes everyone else blue 

Eventually you might live alone, I'd say

Like Scrooge counting money all day 

No one comes by just to say hey 

And then you die all alone

"Godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. But if we have food and clothing, we should be content with that. Those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs." -1 Timothy 6:8-11
