Babylon (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Crucify me

I can’t recall the last time
I took advice from anyone
Shaped like a figure eight
who trusts pretty girls anyway?
And I can’t recall the last time
I took advice from anyone
I’m sure I’ll be the death of me
And I can’t recall the last time
I took love from anyone
I called daddy, who’s got one anyway?
Not me

Are you hating youself?
Do you really hate me?
Are you hating yourself?

Was it worth it?
Would you do it again?
Aren’t you tired of always making amends?
I know you hate me now
I bet you hate me now
Bring on the thorn and crown
Crucify me

I’m really over the cryin’ thing
wipin’ my tears
Who cries anyway
spread like disease all over me
We did ungodly ghastly things
last night I mean
Who’s God anyway?
You’re mine any day
It’s burning
Take me
I wanna feel
Your power
This final hour
Tell me

Are you losing yourself?
Will you lose it for me?
Are you losing yourself?

Was it worth it?
Would you do it again?
Aren’t you tired of always making amends?
I know you hate me now
I bet you hate me now
Bring on the thorn and crown

Babylon (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

I came into this world high as a bird
From second hand cocain powder
i know it sounds absurd
I never tooted but its in my veins
While the rest of the country bungies off bridges
Without no snap back
and bitches they say they need that
To shake they fannies in the ass clubs
they go the other route
turn each other out
burn each other out
where a bonified nigga like me
can’t even get no back rub these days
ain’t that bleak on they part
but let me hold it down
cause they shut you down
when you speak from your heart
now that’s hard
while we rantin and ravin bout gats
nigga they made them gats
they got some shit that’ll blow out our backs
from where they stay at

Chorus:

Ooooh, I fear the battle’s just begun
Ooooh, though we’re here someday we will be gone
so i’m hopin, wishin, prayin
to keep my faith in you, in you

(yo, yo, yo in background)

I’m fascinated by the way yo
nipples peak at me through yo blouse
freaky me, freaky you
can’t help but be aroused
‘scuse me lord less for thinkin
but that’s the way we was brought up
sneakin to watch playboy at night
we all must be caught up in worldly ways
Chemistry between boys and girls
is alot like when we went to the woods
and laid with the squirrels
durin P.E., we’d be
exploring each others privates
hunchin with all our clothes on
until we felt excited then, aaaah
oh now its on from here on out
put yo hands in the atmosphere
if you know what i’m talkin bout
now if two hearts done walk on out
and i see you on the next song
they call it horny
Because its devilish
now see we dead wrong

Chorus

People don’t know the stress i’m dealing with day to day
Speakin about the feeling i’m possessing for Rene
Mopin around and wondering where she stay
saw her last that she lay
give it another day i say
but the lord he taketh away
now give it back lawd
cause that’s like backboards without the rims
me and my auntie was tight like southwest
before the pinks moved in
like the niggas that owned the ligour store
crack cocaine, pimps and whores
livin up on this earth
before a nigga like daddy was born
but they makin a scene
that my music and crime are a team
but i’m speakin the truth not dreams
so what in the fuck they mean
my lyrics ain’t clean

Chorus

friday night i’m going nowhere
All the lights are changing green to red
Turning over tv stations
Situations running through my head
Well looking back through time
You know it’s clear that i’ve been blind
I’ve been a fool
To ever open up my heart
To all that jealousy, that bitterness, that ridicule

Saturday i’m running wild
And all the lights are changing red to green
Moving through the crowd i’m pushing
Chemicals all rushing through my bloodstream
Only wish that you were here
You know i’m seeing it so clear
I’ve been afraid
To tell you how i really feel
Admit to some of those bad mistakes i’ve made

If you want it
Come and get it
Crying out loud
The love that i was
Giving you was
Never in doubt
Let go your heart
Let go your head
And feel it now

Babylon, babylon

Sunday all the lights of london
Shining , sky is fading red to blue
I’m kicking through the autumn leaves
And wondering where it is you might be going to
Turning back for home
You know i’m feeling so alone
I can’t believe
Climbing on the stair
I turn around to see you smiling there
In front of me

If you want it
Come and get it
Crying out loud
The love that i was
Giving you was
Never in doubt
And feel it now
Let go your heart
Let go your head
And feel it now
Let go your heart
Let go your head
And feel it now
Let go your heart
Let go your head
And feel it now
Let go your heart
Let go your head
And feel it now

Babylon, babylon, babylon

Forever, you’ll be remembered as the one who played it cool
Whenever they speak your name they’ll say it’s you who broke the golden rule
But here’s what i really want to know
Did you see the writing on the wall

Chorus:
Babylon
How long can this foolish magic carry on
Babylon
Who will love you when the fantasy of youth is gone

Babylon is it true that your streets were paved with gold
And did you play beneath the stars
Babylon did you know it would all come down to
How you played the dealer’s cards

Remember how you loved the laughter
A kingdom on the rise
Crys in the night would turn you to song
And when they call ooh you sang along

Here’s what i really want to know
Did you see the writing on the wall

Babylon
How long will this foolish magic carry on
Babylon
Who will love you when the fantasy of youth is gone

Babylon is it true that your streets were paved with gold
And did you play beneath the stars
Babylon did you know it would all come down to
How you played the dealer’s cards

It’s over you rate two pages in some book
Your legacy
Lost in the night and still you sing your song
For those who will take heed

Here’s what i really want to know
Did you see the writing on the wall

Babylon
How long will this foolish magic carry on
Babylon
Who will love you when the fantasy of youth is gone

Babylon is it true that your streets were paved with gold
And did you play beneath the stars
Babylon did you know it would all come down to
How you played the dealer’s cards…

Now that the thrill of the massacre is over
Isn’t it sweet when she sucks on your veins
I’ve waited so long

I roll back the stone just to see
What I’m missing
Glimpses of grandeurr now faced with defeat
I’ve waited so long

Now that your kingdom of Babylon’s fading
where will you turn when you can’t find
Your soul
I’ve waited so long

Salvation’s at hand,
Its a matter of taste dear
Lost in ideals you found in the trash
I’ve waited so long
