Chorus
all these men busy busy building monuments
and when it crash down they rebuild quickly with confidence
but me i sit back and laugh ha ha ha at all of them
cause i know if you try to be God you will fall again
hey! every monument will fall again
hey! every monument will fall again
Verse 1, Karim Rushdy
preposterous and fraudulent hypocrisy
the fall of men - is honestly a hollow like cacophony
it’s audibly present in its defending of idolatry
the decline of the civilized mind was a prophecy
but now it's our plain sight day and night for all to see
this is not normal all these murders are anomalies
tell me why we fight the phytochemical in broccoli?
the need to be unhealthy and selfish has the monopoly! it’s robbery!
they're trying to make my soul not a part of me
then separate my body from my mind and start harvesting
these idols are not vital to my fathering
so i will never sacrifice my life like an offering
the paradox is boggling dissolving our biology
it's bothering the balance and evolving like a comedy
hmm let's see, if i destroy my own psychology
then i will fit the mold OK that makes sense logically
i guess i'll just melt away and live my life unconsciously
and as long as i'm not fond of me then you can just take all of me
Verse 2, Bigg Zee
if a 9 is packed with 11 would you think we’d stop terror?
or maybe that’s the explanation for all of our errors,
now I’m not saying at all that we shouldn’t stay protected
but when passing a law try making them fairer,
a barrier between us , you think building a wall will create another genius
or the next slim jesus ,fake wack take back
these bigots can’t believe this,
murderers and rapists the same ones that serve subpoenas,
best believe that don’t wanna see that,
I’m sick of all these kids saying that they squeeze gats,
I mean do what you want to , but is that watchu gonna do think about whatchu lose,
i hope you like jail shoes sorry for the bad news,you think i don’t know?
trust I hang with bad dudes , I just learned there’s more to life then packing 22s ,
I’ve seen the rise and fall of many different crews ,
some stick together while others pick and choose,
but that’s just the life of the used and abused, the used and abused,
but that’s just the life of the used and abused,
the used and abused, gotta be careful it can happen to you too
all these men busy busy building monuments,
life is a burger and they built it with no condiments,
confusion no solution like i I just came back from oculus,
do I believe a word they say? nah man not a bit
Verse 3, José María Fierro
As I see the monuments we're constantly erecting
And worshipping the false gods that mankind is selecting
I realize that living in the conscious is the best thing
And so I'm all about the action never resting
It's tempting to wanna live your life and stay the course
And never really question anything, get by with no remorse
But eventually you'll have to, by chance or by force
So start the demolition, there is one true source
That's God, so realize the things you're being told
“Like love is only on the surface, all that glitters is gold”
Are only constructs of conduct that you're being sold
And to be honest man I'm sick of it cuz it's getting old
Because the moment we give in is the moment we fall asleep
And that's the moment when conformity will slowly start to creep
And make it difficult for anyone to really go and keep
A level head and better yet you will exist skin deep
So wake up!
Don't take up physical arms
We gotta join arms then, doing minimal harm
And march forth to the site of the monuments that matter and
We gotta take em down and shatter them
I draw the inspiration for my rap songs from my life experiences and from the Holy Writings of the Baha'i Faith. I have a blend of many cultures in my blood, and I've lived in many different countries. This has taught me patience and to always listen.
