Babylon burning and I do not care
Take a whiff you can smell the Stench in the air
Knowledge is power don't be afraid to share
They shot us down in the street like a hog or a deer
Stand over our corpse like a Souvenir
Meanwhile I witness Shed a tear
Stole our riches them bloodsucking leeches
Bombing our school and burning our churches you savages
