The Fall

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Akala] In 1492 Columbus sailed the ocean blue Being the cunt he was, the genocide that ensued Was half a millennia of permanent bloodbath 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 solutions Decimation, erase a nation and proudly stating Nowadays the language has change But it's the same shit since the Nazis 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? [Chorus: Amy True] 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 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 [Verse 2: Amy True] 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, breathtaking 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 showing many flaws We are not collateral, we are something greater than Take a stand, let's all take our money out their 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 [Chorus] 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 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 [Verse 3: Akala] 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, yeah Supply arms to both sides in the fight And if you ain't frightened you ain't paying attention to your enlightened 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 [Chorus] 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 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 [Outro: Akala] It's over, the fall It's over
