Song information On this page you can read the lyrics of the song The Fall , by - Akala. Song from the album Knowledge Is Power, Vol. 2, in the genre Рэп и хип-хопThe 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 |
