...solange ich in Babylon leb?...

In der von der Offenbarung des Johannes geprägten christlichen Symbolik gilt Babylon als gottesfeindliche Macht und Hort von Sünde und Dekadenz. Martin Luther deutete das ihm verhasste Papsttum als Hure Babylons.
In der von äthiopisch-orthodoxen Einflüssen geprägte Religion der Rastafaris wird der Begriff "Babylon" neben den biblischen Deutungen zusätzlich auch als Synonym für den Ort ihrer Gefangenschaft im kapitalistischen und imperialistischen System der Industriestaaten der westlichen Welt ("shitstem" genannt), wobei die Rastafaris nach der Rückkehr von Babylon ins gelobte Land Zion (Afrika) streben.

me too – I wanna know too
where I´m coming from
and where I´m going to
what is the sense of life – is what I´m asking
why can´t we all unite
and start learning
we don´t care about next generations
to greedy to find peaceful solutions
I feel ashamed and I blame mankind for
playing a game

I can´t feel it in the sunshine
I only feel it in the rain
when someone feels just fine
someone else is deep in pain

some of them think – the nicest
thing in the world are their crisis
they don´t look and they don´t understand
not able to see a greater plan
moving in circles – mentally
social aspects have been buried
no chance to stop narcism and greed
you better grow up and bounce to the beat

raise your head up high in the sky and live and give
as a loving creature
in a loving culture
no more starving people
under under pressure

what you feel depends on what you wanna feel,
what you see depends on what you wanna see,
you can look at a big bright star and your mind
creates a new war.
everyone has his own reality what i see depends
on what i wanna see
my own reality, your own reality
my mind..your mind..my time..your time
i leave it behind..behind to understand enternity
all in all we're connected
connected by our collective
unconciousness been reflected
reflected, been attracted
it seems we're searching all alone
and we can't find our way home
we should jump together and roam
into the world of our very own
jump up.. break the wheels of suffer
jump up.. become a real life lover
jump up..to the rythm inside no other
get down and move it all around.
lift it up, lift it up got keep it high that feeling
lift it up, lift it up, gotta keep it high that feeling
jump up.. break the wheels of suffer
jump up.. become a real life lover
jump up..to the rythm inside no other
get down and move it all around

what you feel depends on what you wanna feel,
what you see depends on what you wanna see,
you can look at a big bright star and your mind
creates a new war.
everyone has his own reality what i see depends
on what i wanna see
my own reality, your own reality
my mind..your mind..my time..your time
i leave it behind..behind to understand enternity
jump up.. break the wheels of suffer
jump up.. become a real life lover
jump up..to the rythm inside no other
get down and move it all around

yo, here we come again
cause we understand – that all of us can´t
refuse this style, this blend
lovely atmosphere – love can stop fear
satisfied souls only
and a feeling we call smooth and groovy

we´re coming with the message L.O.V.E.
cause L.O.V.E. is the message you see
yes it sets us free – L.O.V.E. – L.O.V.E.

now we focus on the good times
cause we´re having a lot of bad times, you know
and we´re singing our L.O.V.E. hook
to make each and everyone understood

lovely atmosphere – love can stop fear
satisfied souls only and a feeling
we call smooth and groovy

Ich bin sicher wir werden sehn wie sich die Dinge für immer drehn
Denn die Tage sind gezählt
Dann stirbt das Babylon System
