Lyrics:
the coffin he made you
You're a stone that's been thrown in the lake
Now you sink in, it sinks in
In the top of the tower
The devil he waits, the devil
the coffin he made you
You're a stone that's been thrown in the lake
Now you sink in, it sinks in
In the top of the tower
The devil he waits, the devil
Save us from the ball and chain,
Save us from the ball and chain,
Save us from the ball and chain,
Oh yeah,
The diggers and the tower cranes,
I stood upon the Ivory Tower
As far as I could see
The winds that grew from out of the trees were calling out to me
Curtains blew in the Ivory
niggas don't want war (pew, water!)
Y'all niggas don't want war (war, war)
What you came here for? (war, yeah)
I'm in, I'm in Tilted Towers (ooh, Tilted
the tower, holds the key to her door
She's the face in the darkness every man's waiting for
Silhouette in the moonlight, virgin wanting more
No escaping, no
reach for the light
Tear down the towers of Babylon
Then we fall to the ground
Tear down the towers
Now time is a factor and lives are at stake
I know
change?
So come down now, come down from your tower now
Come down now, from your tower, oh
Come down, come down from your tower
Come down, come down,
on
(No one can take his place)
He is unbeatable, say
(He is unbeatable)
He is a strong tower, come on
(He is a strong tower)
He is unbeatable, say
(He is
moved, and I'll say of the Lord
You are my shield, my strength, my portion
Deliverer, my shelter, strong tower
My very present help in time of need
Whom
be moved, and I'll say of the Lord
You are my shield, my strength, my portion
Deliverer, my shelter, strong tower
My very present help in time
With the stars as my guide
There's no one here but my empty thoughts
And the sword by my side
Chorus:
Just a light, from a tower
Burning on from
On and on against the tide
Carry on and pay the price
Tower of Babylon
Tower of Babylon
All we saw just turned to dust
Right before our eyes
Hearing echoes
From
the price
Tower of Babylon
Tower of Babylon
All we saw just turned to dust
Right before our eyes
Hearing echoes
From afar
On and on against
towers,
Overlook a space of flowers,
And the silent isle embowers
The Lady of Shalott.
Only reapers, reaping early
In among the bearded barley
Hear a song
In a water tower town, everybody waves
Church doors are the only thing
That's open on Sundays
Word travels fast, wheels turn slow
Yeah workin' hard
(Hmm, hmm)
Grindacologist nuh find a lump inna yuh
(Hmm, hmm)
Nuh man neva bruk off nuh stump inna yuh
(Hmm, hmm)
Or Trump Tower Donald him
towers,
Overlook a space of flowers,
And the silent isle embowers
THE LADY OF SHALOTT.
Only reapers, reaping early
In among the bearded barley
Hear a song
towers,
Overlook a space of flowers,
And the silent isle embowers
THE LADY OF SHALOTT.
Only reapers, reaping early
In among the bearded barley
Hear a song
to you in the night
Liars in ivory towers
Educated fools preaching false knowledge
Liars in ivory towers
Educated fools preaching false knowledge
Ignorance
With the stars as my guide
There's no one here but my empty thoughts
And the sword by my side
Just a light, from a tower
Burning on from dusk
the coffin he made you
You're a stone that's been thrown in the lake
Now you sink in, it sinks in
In the top of the tower
The devil he waits, the devil
all your lies
Leaving here I'd say I tried
Ivory Towers they will fall
Up so high
Up so high
The truth will find a way
At least that's what they say
Lost my focus for a second
The road here was hellish
A lot of foes turned out to be selfish
Now I’m standing over them
In my watch tower thinking
