Lyrics/Song
Structure:
======================
Well I say
Leaving this
Babylon
I said leaving that this Babylon
Leaving this Babylon
Will
not be too long
Will not be too long
I said my people are
starving
But your money's runnin'
I said my people are starvin'
But
your money's runnin'
I said my dollar dollar duck down real
low
You ain't got nothing to show
Gonna step right through the
door
Not gonna come back no more
The politician lie
The
mommatistic cry
And nothing ever gonna change
My father just
designed
My sister just aligned
And I ain't got nothin' to claim,
no
Well I say
Well I say
Nothing will go away
Nothing
should leave today, yea, yea
