Indigo Children - The Root [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Hook: Vision]
It’s all about spreading that knowledge
Evolving the conscience
Money come and money go
We tied to this cycle, to be honest, shit is getting old
Trying to find heaven on earth
But I’m shook, blinded by whatever I earn

[Verse 1: Vision]
Better yet what I don’t, little check really won’t
Make no difference, shit it feel like it do
We don’t wanna be senseless, but we cents-less
Inner-peace what we need to pursue
So lost it seems we in need of some prophets
Leave it to me to stop the nonsense
Make some change, progress pray it rains
Can’t stand for this weather, I got no option
Gotta eat, shit can’t stay the same
Panhandling, never blinded by objects
Want a lot of cheese, it's a drought we stay enslaved
Gotta change our ways, fuck staying stagnant
Day-to-day chasing pay leaves you with sadness
We boxed and it's tragic, it's toxic, it's madness
We locked in our minds, we don't find shit
True gold mine, you will never find it
In your soul, hides the light man
In your soul, hides the light man

[Verse 2: Khalil The Goat]
We’re killing ourselves for individual wealth, guess
In a sense, we’re innocent to this subliminal death, stress
In to the sinning because deliverance ain’t giving us help
In the ghetto, all we know is to focus solely on the dough Chase additional checks, we want to claim
That we made it our self, when gaining our wealth
It’s such a shame how this pain and fame
Is draining our health, we're hanging ourselves
Over the things that we hang in our shelves
No communication in this generation
Nowadays, people anxious so they hang with themselves
Stay in a shell, depressed as hell, moving at the pace of a snail
Nowadays, we’re all self-conscious, judging ourselves
Based off of snapchats and double taps
Rather than interact, we put on an inner-act
On social media as if we’re living that
What am I getting at?

[Khalil The Goat]
Touch-screens making us lose touch, we need to get it back
It’s instrumental we look at our production and get on track
Such an abysmal birth with minimal worth
Nowadays we even sin in church
Living like we won’t soon be in a hearse, in the dirt, It’s a curse

[Vision]
Prisoner, of our own mind
Listen here, the real gold mine lie inside
But time and time again, I try to find amends
With no insight and shit because this cycle is
Endless, senseless

[Khalil The Goat]
Pretentious materialistic friendships, capitalistic oppression
Of the weak some speak the meek shall inherit the streets
I see the beast next to Jesus, extemporaneous exegesis Everyday examples of our extinction

[Spoken Word: Khalil The Goat]
Money is the root of all evil but also the pursuit of our people
So who’s really evil?
The mind is feeble and leads people to believe that this piece of green is all that they need to find peace and be equal
Idealistically, the peace we seek
Should be much deeper than what they feed you
Money is the foundation of the nation and every ancient civilization so we’re a slave to industrialization and anticipation of money-making
Because of this money, we do things we’re not supposed to
Not saying money isn’t important, it’s something we all go through
Just control the money and don’t let it control you

[Hook: Both]
It’s all about spreading that knowledge
Evolving the conscience
Money come and money go
We tied to this cycle, to be honest, shit is getting old
Trying to find heaven on earth
But I’m shook, blinded by whatever I earn

[Outro: Both]
Mo' money we come across, mo' problems we see
We climbing for the mountain top that we will never reach
No matter how much that we get, it ain’t enough
It seems, the more we depend on this money
The less that we’re free
