The lyrics of "Babylon" by Jauz & Tisoki criticize the corrupt status quo of the society that promotes inequity and perpetuates suffering for the poor. The repetition of the phrase "Wicked Babylon, your days are numbered" conveys a message of the impending downfall of those in power who exploit their position and hoard riches for themselves. The song highlights how the rich continue to benefit from the system, while the poor are left behind to suffer. The reference to "the same old story every day" suggests that this is not a new phenomenon and that the situation has been going on for a long time.
The lyrics urge for a change in the societal structure by appealing to the readers' sense of morality. The line, "too much iniquity I see, hear, hear too much wickedness I pray" underscores the need for compassion, justice, and fairness. The final line of the lyrics, "Your days are numbered," hints that change is inevitable and that the corrupt structure would eventually break down.
