Babylon
M.I Abaga Lyrics

The devil is a liar, but I never believed him
The devil tries to distract me and lead me astray, but I refuse to listen to his lies.

He tried to set my eyes upon Babylon
The devil tries to lure me into a life of sin and destruction.

In the beginning there was fire on the mountain
At the start of this journey, there was passion and excitement.

A burning desire the birthing of your dreaming
This passion gives birth to your dreams and aspirations.

Scary thoughts about me start you wanna tempting
Negative thoughts and temptations may give rise to fear and insecurity.

Decisions getting tough which way to go cos they ma tempting
It can be difficult to make decisions when faced with alluring but harmful choices.

The road is rough and dark on this journey you're embarking
The path ahead is uncertain and full of challenges.

So keep the fire blazing shine your eyes for better lighting
Keep your passion alive and stay focused on your goals in order to navigate these challenges.

Peaceful moving but sometimes you have to fighting
Although you may prefer a peaceful journey, sometimes you have to fight for what you want.

I'm serving and learning wrong from righting
I am trying to learn and grow, distinguishing between right and wrong.

Plus the devil is a liar
The devil is a deceiver and cannot be trusted.

The only thing that is between you and your true desire
The devil is the only obstacle standing between me and my true aspirations.

And and you cannot afford the answer
You cannot afford to listen to the devil's lies and fall into temptation.

So don't you let your worries take over your thinking like a cancer
Don't allow your fears to consume you and spread like a disease, preventing you from achieving your goals.

O Jah my country's in problem
My country is dealing with serious issues.

We voted for change but now it seems that even change cannot solve dem
Even though we voted for change, it seems that it is not enough to solve our problems.

And all the politicians is Babylon
The politicians in power are corrupt and contributing to our problems.

Eating while the masses going hungry to the point that we carry gun
The politicians are enjoying lavish lifestyles while the people suffer, to the point of violence.

Oh Lord the people are hurting people are searching
The people are in pain and searching for solutions.

Nothing is working and all of the people are crying
Everything seems to be falling apart and people are feeling hopeless.

The rulers are lying the bullets are flying we're tired of trying
The leaders are not being honest and the people are facing violence, causing them to feel hopeless.

Don't know anymore who to rely on
People are unsure who to trust or turn to for help.

But I am casting my eye onto Zion
I am looking to a better future, to a place of hope and restoration.

With the heart of a lion as we praying for triumph
With courage and determination, we pray for victory.

And I see so many wicked enemies
There are many negative forces working against us.

Try to be the end of me
These forces are trying to defeat me and bring me down.

But I know you defended me and I know
I know that God is protecting me and giving me strength.

And at the end of the day there's nothing to be afraid
There is nothing to fear, no matter how difficult the journey.

And keep your demons at bay and work your way to get paid
Work hard to overcome your inner demons and achieve your goals.

And at the end of the night everything will be alright
No matter what happens, everything will be okay in the end.

Don't ever give up the fight don't ever turn from the light
Keep fighting for what you believe in and stay true to your values.

Whatever pattern you choose know you got nothing to lose
No matter what path you take, there is nothing to lose by trying.

Try not to be confused don't let the devil to use you
Avoid confusion and don't let the devil deceive and manipulate you.

Whatever pattern you take and when you make a mistake
No matter what decision you make or what mistakes you make, keep moving forward.

Long as you rise up in faith my brother you gon be great
As long as you have faith and persevere, you will achieve greatness.
