Babylon
Gold Priority Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I realize after all
I'll be stuck here in Babylon
I could do no wrong

She can't hold nothing but a memory (Can't fall in love)
Can't fall in love
When I realize after all
I'll be nothing but dragging on
How could I do wrong?





She can't hold nothing but a memory (Can't fall in love)
Can't fall in love

God destroyed it because he was angry with Nimrod for shooting an arrow at him, and thinking he could actually kill him. So he scattered the people.

Quick answer is the rise of war within the clans themselves, if crime goes up people tend to leave , they migrate to safer locations, one good example is Detroit, it's falling apart because people have left such locations .
