[Verse]
I dreBmamt last night that the F#mend had come
I was Bmsearching everywhere forF#m food, but there was none
BodiesBm laying burned in the F#mmidday sun
NowBmhere to hideF#m
NowBmhere to runF#m
I wBment to the city buF#mt the city was gone
RadiBmating with hatred aF#mnd destroyed by a bomb
BeholBmd the brilliant cF#molors of the nuclear dawn
But Bmthere is no sonF#mg
All hBmas gone wrong F#m
[Verse]
And whBmen I awoke I couldF#m clearly see
The seBmeds of this visionF#m Jah had given me
PlanteBmd deep within thesF#me aristocracies
HypocrBmisy and F#m
Power Bmand greed F#m
[Verse]
So wakBme up, to the fact F#mthat they're controlling you
WhetheBmr or not your doinF#mg what you want to do
The syBmstem that we are lF#miving in is doomed, Oh!
Jah knBmows it's true F#m
And I Bmman, I know it's tF#mrue
[Bridge]
And BmI'm just telling you this
BecauBmse I love you F#mbreddren!
ThrougBmh and through I man F#mtrue, until the very end
The Bmsweeter the kiss
The sBmtronger the poisF#mon!
And thBmis is the reason tF#mhat I idrens
Are dyBming for nothing F#m
[Chorus]
Oh, ItBm's Babylon controlF#m
It's HBmollywood mind contF#mrol
They tBmarget the youth F#m
I'll sBmhow you the proof F#m
Come oBmn see the truth F#m
It's wBmritten on I am manF#m soul
On I aBmm man soul, yeah F#m
It's NBmews media control F#m
PolitiBmcal mind control, F#myeah
Get unBmder your skin F#m
They're wearing you thin
But yoBmu no give in F#m
For noBmt all that glitterF#m is gold, yeahoh
[Verse]
And inBm my vision I saw iF#mncurable disease
GenetiBmcally engineered bF#my hateful enemies
All ofBm this in the name F#mof power and money
How coBmuld this be F#m
The fuBmture for we? F#m
[Verse]
The grBmeen and mighty forF#mests of the Amazon
The luBmsh valleys of HavaF#mii are dead and gone
The onBmce abundant and feF#mrtile land of Babylon
Now saBmnd and stone F#m
StrippBmed to the bone F#m
[Verse]
Oh comBme quickly F#m
They'rBme taking away our F#mparadise
SeparaBmting us from the sF#mource all lives
PoisonBming the seas and pF#molluting the skies
IgnoriBmng the cries and F#m
PromotBming the lies F#m
So nowBm that this vision F#mhas come into your life
I hopeBm you will take up F#myour part in the fight
AgainsBmt those who seek tF#mo turn our day into night
You knBmow it's right F#m
So staBmnd up and fight F#m
[Bridge]
And I'Bmm just telling youF#m this
BecausBme I love you mah sF#mistrens!
ThrougBmh and through I maF#mn true until the very end
The swBmeeter the kiss, doF#mn't you know
The stBmronger the poison F#m
And thBmis is the reason tF#mhat I idrens
Are dyBming for nothing F#m
[Chorus]
Oh, BaBmbylon control F#m

I'll sBmhow you the proof F#m
Come oBmn see the truth F#m

WritteBmn on a ya mon soulF#m
It's NBmews media control F#m
PolitiBmcal mind control F#m
Get unBmder your skin F#m
