Verse 1]
Another day under concrete skies
Feedin’ us fear, feedin’ us lies
Gold on the throne, chains on the mind
Tryna blind the youth, keep us runnin’ in time
They buildin’ walls where the rivers should flow
Sellin’ our souls for a number and code
But I feel the truth in the drumbeat sound
Ancient heartbeat when the bass hit ground
[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t bow to kings with a poisoned crown
I hear the ancestors callin’ me now
When the truth rise up from the ashes inside
You can’t stop the fire, you can’t stop the tide
[Chorus]
So let Babylon die, let it fall to the dust
All that greed and control never built on trust
We rise with the sun, yeah we rise with the sound
When the roots run deep, can’t tear us down
Let Babylon die, let the veil get torn
New world breathin’ with a soul reborn
From the lies to the light, from the dark to the high
Yeah, we singin’ freedom — let Babylon die
[Verse 2]
Paper dreams got the people enslaved
Workin’ they life to the edge of the grave
Television tellin’ you who to be
While they poison the land and the air we breathe
But the earth still hums with a rebel tune
Moon still pulls on the ocean blue
Every seed know exactly how to grow
You don’t need permission to let truth show
[Pre-Chorus]
I stay grounded, barefoot in the sand
Faith in the music, strength in my hands
When the system shake and the masks all slide
Only love gon’ stand when the rest divide
[Chorus]
So let Babylon die, let it fall to the dust
All that greed and control never built on trust
We rise with the sun, yeah we rise with the sound
When the roots run deep, can’t tear us down
Let Babylon die, let the veil get torn
New world breathin’ with a soul reborn
From the lies to the light, from the dark to the high
Yeah, we singin’ freedom — let Babylon die
[Bridge]
No more fear in my blood, no chains on my sight
I choose love every day, I choose truth every night
When the drum beat steady and the lion don’t hide
That’s the sound of the people wakin’ up inside
[Outro]
So I plant my feet where the real ones stand
Heart full of fire, peace in my hand
If the old world burn so the new can rise
Then I won’t shed a tear
