Tumblin' Down
Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers Lyrics

Here comes the eagle
A powerful entity is approaching

Here comes the bear
Another strong entity is coming

And they're fighting to control
The eagle and bear are in conflict, trying to dominate

The lion dominion
Their struggle is over who will reign supreme

But the load gonna come tumblin' down
Their struggle will ultimately come to an end

Here comes synthetic food
Man-made, processed food is being introduced

And their big time money
Those pushing synthetic food have significant financial interests at stake

And they want to control
They aim to dominate and manipulate

Our body and soul
Their control extends to our physical and spiritual well-being

Here comes the maker
A divine figure is approaching

To crush the oppressor
Their purpose is to defeat those who are oppressing others

Well I bet you didn't know
Most people are likely unaware of this divine intervention

It was mind over matter
The divine figure's power is metaphysical

But the load gonna come tumblin' down (Jah, Jah know)
Divine justice will eventually be served

But the load gonna come tumblin' down (Jah, Jah know)
The repetition emphasizes the certainty of this outcome

But the load gonna come tumblin' down
This divine intervention will end the struggle between powerful entities

But the load gonna come tumblin' down
Their oppressive control over others will end

But the load gonna come tumblin' down
Justice and freedom will ultimately prevail

But the load gonna come tumblin' down
This outcome is inevitable
