Zion & Babylon – Josh GarrelsBy Oh great mammon of form and functionCareless consumerist consumptionDangerous dysfunctionDescribed as expensive tasteI’m a people disgracedBy what I claim I needAnd what I want to wasteI take no account for nothingIf it’s not mineIt’s a misappropriation of fundsProtect my ninety percent with my gunsWhose side am I on?Well who’s winning?My kingdom’s built with the blood of slavesOrphans, widows, and homeless gravesI sold their souls just to build my private mansionSome people say that my time is comingKingdom come is the justice runningDown, down, down on meI’m a poor child, I’m a lost sonI refuse to give my love to anyone,Fight for the truth,Or help the weaker onesBecause I love my BabylonI am a slave, I was never freeI betrayed you for blood moneyOh I bought the world, all is vanityOh my Lord I’m your enemyCome to me, and find your lifeChildren sing, Zion’s in sightI said don’t trade your name for a serial numberPriceless lives were born from under gravesWhere I found youSay, my name ain’t yours and yours is not mineMine is the Lord, and yours is my childThat’s how it’s always beenTime to make a changeLeave your homeGive to the poor all that you ownLose your life, so that you could find itFirst will be last when the true world comesLivin’ like a humble fool to overcomeThe upside-down wisdomOf a dying worldZion’s not built with handsAnd in this place God will dwell with manSick be healed and cripples standSing AlleluMy kingdom’s built with the blood of my sonSelfless sacrifice for everyoneFaith, hope, love, and harmonyI said let this world know me by your loveBy your loveOh my child, daughters and sonsI made you in love to overcomeFree as a bird, my flowers in the sunOn your way to Mount ZionAll you slaves, be set freeCome on out child and come on home to meWe will dance, we will rejoiceIf you can hear me then follow my voice www.pillowlyrics.com419786497975 88k 20
