The Fall |
In 1492 Columbus sailed the ocean blue |
Being the cunt he was, the genocide that ensued |
Was half a millennia of permanent blood bath |
Today we celebrate the rapist and his fucked up past |
Decimate a native, leave him in our path |
Death and destruction, we kick back and we just laugh |
When the culture values dogs more than certain humans |
It is certain it will come up with the worst solution |
Decimation, erase a nation and proudly stating |
Nowadays the language has change |
But it’s the same shit since the Nazi’s did within Europe |
What Europeans was only supposed to do to natives |
The word «genocide» now carries a little weight with it |
But we don’t really mean it, a killer is our patriot |
Ain’t nothin' better than a resource theft |
Ain’t nothin' more sexy than black and brown death |
We’ll tell you what is comin' yeah we’ll tell you what is next |
Cause we’ve eaten here before, we’re familiar with the chef |
Hmm, what’s cooking? |
The same dish, different dressing |
The same priest, different confession |
But will still give you a blessing yeah |
A baptism in blood, in fact it was a flood |
In fact it was some grub who packed triggers and mug |
A whole nation, this is empire |
The question is can we aspire to any higher? |
We’re living through the fall of the empire |
We’re living through the fall of the empire |
And we don’t even know what is meant by it |
And we don’t even know what is meant by it |
See, any foundation that is built on greed |
Raping and pillaging will never succeed |
We’re living in the age of information |
Enslavement, call it colonisation |
I call is straight piss taking |
Call it money or lose your debt making |
Breath taking, soul destroying, back breaking |
Where they crack whips for fake staters |
Our society is broken down |
So I don’t get a loan or credit cards |
See that is out of bounds |
Freezing all your assets, stopping any bank withdrawals |
Read in to the future cause the past is shiowing many flaws |
We are not collateral, we are something greater than |
Take a stand, let’s all take our money out of filthy banks |
Mental evolution, no confusion built communities |
Until my last breath, I won’t stop until we all are free |
Shouting People’s Army, see I kow there’s something blessed in me |
Cause when it all falls down I know there’s so much meant for we |
Colonise a savage take what isn’t a land she inhabits |
Then we justify it by claiming that we already had it |
Cause who needs facts when we got force? |
Who needs their own minerals, we’ll just take yours |
We ain’t talking bout music when we say tours |
Rape mothers and mother nature 'cause they both our whores |
Tell our kids every day that crime don’t pay |
But there’s no way we believe the bullshit we say |
Cause it’s clear as the light of day |
The light is lighting up the way |
Of those who trade in graves cause death does pay, yea |
Supply arms to both sides in the fight |
And if you ain’t frightened you ain’t paying attention to your alliance |
I know something that we ain’t learned |
That, yea, maybe hell is real and one day they’ll burn |
But in the meantime, sure they’ll earn |
Till their empire’s done and another one gets its turn |
It’s over, the fall |
It’s over |
