    Story Behind the Song
    How far back does abusive behaivior go?

    Can it be stopped?

    Lyrics
    The Root of All Evil
    lyrics by Robert Brown

    All these roots run deep,
    And this tree is old,
    This trunk is rotten
    All these leaves have mold

    is it in our blood?
    or is it from abuse?
    past generation
    legacy of misuse?

    I know my blood runs hot,
    I've seen my blood is thick
    Im told my bloods not sweet,
    I cry, “my soul is sick”

    we're the childern of childern
    and wer'e handing down there pain
    the root of all evil
    is the sanity left to gain?

    corus -
    we were the victums, we were the culprets
    we were the childern who cry at night
    we are the hunted, and we do the hurting
    we are the childern who cry at night


    the fathers father father
    may have made this truth
    or was it in HIS blood
    this legacy of abuse

    we're the childern of childern
    and wer'e handing down there pain
    the root of all evil
    is the sanity left to gain?

    Chorus

    All these roots run deep,
    And this tree is old,
    This trunk is rotten
    All these leaves have mold

    is it in our blood?
    or is it from abuse?
    past generation
    legacy of misuse?

    Chorus
