Lyrics Follow Me Down - The Jokerr, King James Dillinger

Follow Me Down

Yo.
I just got back from the war, and I brought bad news back from the front
line/
The force that we face is enormous, and even if we double up on 'em,
it’ll be a hard time/
They got more guns than I ever would have thought.
More soldiers than I ever
would have brought/
Even if I thought that we could accomplish, and now they got to the very top
but the men in our line,/
One by one, I watched them fall, they gave into the weapons and they answered
the call/
The money and the guns, the women and the fame, too much for 'em,
and they couldn’t be contained/
It was sad and it would have driven many mad and they would gotten a hold of me
hadn’t they had a bad aim/
But they shot and they missed and I dropped and I dipped and I came back home
back I came/
And this is the message I fought my way back here to tell/
And if you rather me not, you can go to hell/
They only want you for your dollars and your pounds/
And if you want to know the rest, then follow me on down/
I know you’re somewhere waiting, somewhere out there now, follow me down
I know you’re somewhere waiting, somewhere out there now, follow me down
For days, I’ve trekked, till' I ran out of breath
Through the valley of the shadow of death
And fought through all the hunger and pain
But the hunger for fame, is more than anybody could withstand
A blunder it became, So I took into consideration everything I’ve learned
Sacred scrolls told us that our village shall be burned
Anyone who’s different shall be burned at the stake
With the scavengers circling the remains of the greats
We knew from the beginning that the battle would be lost
When evil’s synonymous with a man of the cloth
The damage they caused, only half of the loss
The other half being that their grasp on the thoughts
From the minds of our youth, with decline of the truth
Makes it nearly impossible when it’s time to recruit
So we’re waging a war.
You’ll be safe on the shore
Showing individuality, we’ll take you aboard
In a battle not only for preservation of an ancient art
Those who were taken and were forced to have a change of heart
Forced to praise the charts.
Temptation plays the biggest part
Get the women and the money just to make a farce
What say you?
This is a war of betrayal.
It’s a tab bit too late for apologies
now
So you can wallow in sorrow, or just swallow your pride.
Lace up your boots and
come follow me down
