Looptroop - Fruits Of Babylon Lyrics
"I grew from Babylon soil, born to consume and destroy./I know that cash is king, I breath cocaine, bleed oil./Made to rise above all, success' my ultimate goal./I'm a do what it takes, and bring you down if a fall./Handle my business with war, attack the poor, while praising the lord./Raised to be raw, but act polite - for the show./Let the cameras roll, I got no doubts or regrets./Live off thousands of deaths, keep no promises - only threats/You politicians preaching your vision of the truth./Never cared about us and our point of view/cus your campaigns only promote the killing fields./Children cry but you don't hear, people die but you can't see/cus war is big biz the big guys get rich/livin' off the poor and gain money on sick kids./It's a show for those who can afford the price/but turn that shit off I won't let you gamble with my life!ChorusWe don't need a weather man to know which way the wind blows./ We don't need your politicians to know which way to go./ We don't need your teachers, leave the kids alone,/ and we don't need the poisonous fruits of BabylonBridgeBabylon - always recruiting plotting./ Babylon - but yo, my crew been watching./ Babylon - and if your roots forgotten./ Babylon - then your fruits will rotten.I drink away the pain, on top of the food chain./The fast life, fast lane, view people as loose change./Piss champagne, not really hungry - but I'm eating,/Grow fat for no reason, and though it's hot, my hearts freezing/Look into the mirror do you see what I see?/I'm a reflection of your actions and will always be/the result of your plans, the breed of your scams,/and I'll forever be a prisoner of your land/Hey, I'm the good guy, modern man, enlightened, I understand./Y'all don't seem to get it, why should I care about a foreign land?/You with me or against me, fight for the love of money./Join me in this good life, sell your soul for blood moneyChorusI don't vote, I cut a politician's throat./Hang him with the same rope as I do the pope,/cus I see the hope in the eyes of our children./I won't go for your bribes of your millions,/cus I see no future in the lies and the killings./We all saw what happened to financial buildings./It's all for a reason whether right or wrong,/somebody felt their people had been dying to long./Revenge, retaliation and stupid pride/on both sides. So we keep losing lives - /worldwide. I sing this one for our mothers,/take a sec to recollect just how much they love us...ChorusBridge "
