Lyrics
{Talk}
This song... is dedicated ...to all the black brethrens of the earth
as long as you are a blackman.... you are an african
we must come together... and build this nation ...for our future generations
so they can survive ...and live in harmony.........
{vocals}.....
We cry and shout with saddness
and appeal to Jah for his mightyness
to reign and show us
if its a sin to be black
if blacks and whites ain't alike
a peacefull continent held in siege
by the sinfull deeds of our rulers
once we where great but now
we've been stripped of our land
the reason why ...I can't understand...so I say
(chorus)
Babylon shall fall..2x to rise no more
Babylon must fall down ...
showers of sorrows falls down like arrows
mothers with no hopes of better tommorow's
they all weep and cry out...
if its a sin to be brothers
why are we killing one another
a peacefull continent held in siege
by the sinfull deeds of rulers
once we where great but now
we've been stripped of our rights
the reason why ...we wail our plight...so I say
{Chorus}
Babylon shall fall..2x help me sing yeah
Babylon must fall down ...
{Brigde}
well I don't know how we live our lives
we tend to go around everyday parabulating
why do I feel so insecure ...(why I feel insecure)
Cos we fail to realize....we have to plan for the childrens future......
showers of sorrows falls down like arrows
mothers with no hopes of better tommorow's
if its a sin to be black
if blacks and whites ain't alike
a peacefull continent held in siege
by the sinfull deeds of our rulers
once we where great but now
we've been stripped of our land
the reason why ...I can't understand...so I say
{Chorus}
Babylon shall fall..2x help me sing yeah
Babylon must fall down ...
(adlibs)
{till fade away }..
