Lyrics
V1 Blood money is just the price you're willing to pay to make the ultimate sacrifice the price you'll take for selling your soul, the price you name to take a life and most of the time you'll think it's the deal of your life, and yeah! you should've declined! instead you'll find, you already lost the second you signed the dotted line cuz the Devil and his minions own the riches in this society and they never give them away for free, there's always a catch and the second you think you've finally paid your dues, they'll come around demanding sacrifices bribing you to comply, reminding you of the price if you choose defiance now you're stuck in a bind, you think of your family's safety so you comply and when the time arrives, you go with their plan and somebody dies you try to drink away the guilt, you can't even look your wife in the eyes but she can read between the lines and see the crimes you're trying to hide like the salary you take in order to stay as one of their soldiers then you were ordered to assassinate the leader that fights these horrors all life is precious but you see death as just a business but when Judgement finally comes, how can you expect to be forgiven? Chorus Your obsession with power's made money your only master buying the life of the world at the price of the Hereafter choosing money over life, your fate has now been written the day you leave the living the angels will get vengeance V2 For what price are you willing to sell your soul? I know that most will say a couple of million but no I've seen it happen for less, cuz even the best can be blinded by their goals selling themselves for petty change, pretty things and diamond rings some will just for a shot at fame and others because they have bills to pay like the lawyer taking a case whenever they know their opponent's innocent or know their client's guilty yet they still continue defending him or the doctor stopping your treatments cuz you cant afford the expenses or the woman that sleeps with her landlord so her rent can get an extension did I mention during the night she's selling body while she's stripping to the customers that offer her a thousand to finally hit it should've went to their wives and kids, instead they bought sex with no commitment then the stripper spends 400 to abort their unborn children then you're giving cash donations, guaranteeing her "right" to kill them but refuse to spend a penny so that child can join the living though all life is precious, some see death as just a business but when Judgement finally comes, can you even be forgiven? Chorus V3 The reason I hate money the most is cuz of the way it changes people you can see it in their eyes whenever they're scheming, like they're demons and if money is truly evil, then some people seem possessed choosing money over their health, they literally work themselves to death husbands fighting with their wives because of a mortgage or the evening gown she bought while she was out cheating with a richer guy she was seeing if your toddler breaks your tv, then you're seething so you beat him choosing money over your families? you can replace it, what are you thinking?! pushed your daughter to be a model so you can make some easy cash pressuring her to show her body, hoping she gets a contract money's turned you into trash, man some people truly disgust me like the pimps and cartels selling sex slaves by the hundreds or the church giving out hush money to settle molesting charges or the suicide bomber taking cash to be a martyr look, all life is precious but sometimes I just don't get it when Judgement finally comes are you even trying to be forgiven? Chorus
