They claim seh they hold I
(What a day when I jump for victory)
Yes, in higher cultural glory
(That's when I will be free)
And I'm a telling you, from this carry beyond
(Don't mention Babylon)
No, 'cause it will break meditation
(From doing right to the wrong)

An' I'm a say, some will bounce like ball
(Others will rise and fall)
An' I'm a say that they rising for a fall
(The population knows it all)
An' I know they rising for a fall
(The population knows it all)
I say, they rising for a fall
(The population knows it all)
Yeah

(..)

They build their heavens here
(And still they live in fear)
And let me tell you now, they build their heavens here
(And still they live in fear)
And I know they go to their bed at nights
(They're wishing for day to light)
An' I say, they wake up in the morning
(They'll get breakfast in bed)
And I know they don't care a damn, no they don't
(If the hungry be fed)

That's why I'm saying that
They rising for a fall
(The population knows it all)
Yeah, they rising for a fall
(The population knows it all)

I know, they build their heavens here
(And still they live in fear)
An' I'mma telling you, now who don't want come stay
(All I know I'm gonna pray)
I say, who don't want come stay
(All I know I'm gonna pray)
Yes

I'm gonna leave this place
(It full of shameful faces)
I say, they go to their bed at nights
(They're wishing for day to light)
Come forth and they go to their bed at night
(They're wishing for day to light)
An' I know, they wake up in the morning
(They'll get breakfast in bed)
An' I say they don't care a damn, no they don't
(If the hungry be fed)

That's why I say
They rising for a fall
(The population knows it all)
I know, they rising for a fall
(The population knows it all)
