For The Children (Demo) Lyrics — Langhorne Slim

Reality's a fallacy an agreed upon construction
Fear and greed's a malady worthy of destruction

We've been raised to behave in ways to keep the system going
Pray to the gods of power to keep the money flowing

Money is a funny thing that makes most people sick
Fear and greed is a disease that gets all over it

We've been raised to behave in ways that goes against our nature
Go to school and get a job, hope that God don't hate ya

Religion is a funny thing that makes some people fight
Hatred lives in darkness and love lives in the light

We've been raised to behave in ways to fear a perceived danger
Jesus was a carpenter who said to love your neighbor

Reality's a fallacy an agreed upon construction
Fear and greed is the enemy worthy of destruction
