Maasai - Babylon X/No Mystery

Abdul Mateen (1999)

Song Lyrics

Biblical Reference

There's no mystery
Babylon pure insanity
There's no mystery
Babylon got no integrity
Revelation 17:5 - And upon her forehead
was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE
GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS
OF THE EARTH.
They chop off the breast that feed them
And they defile all Yah children
Everyday you look
There's another problem
And nothing that they do
Can truly solve them
They want us to call them master
But that would be such a great disaster
Babylon school make us fool -
But Ancient Law break the rule
 
And like a seed planted in darkness
Soon come forth a great light
Isaiah 9:2 - The people that walked in darkness
have seen a great light: they that dwell in the
land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the
light shined.
1 Peter 2:9 - But ye are a chosen generation,
a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar
people; that ye should shew forth the praises
of him who hath called you out of darkness into
his marvellous light;
Or like a whisper made by man
Soon come forth a roaring lion
Isaiah 5:29 - Their roaring shall be like a lion,
they shall roar like young lions: yea, they shall
roar, and lay hold of the prey, and shall carry it
away safe, and none shall deliver it.
Matthew 10:27 - What I tell you in darkness,
that speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the
ear, that preach ye upon the housetops.
Luke 12:3 - Therefore whatsoever ye have spoken
in darkness shall be heard in the light; and that
which ye have spoken in the ear in closets shall
be proclaimed upon the housetops.
There's no mystery
Babylon has cruel history
There's no mystery
Babylon pure vanity

Don't lose your voice in Babylon
World full of material illusion
 
Keep not silent Son of Man
Psalm 28:1 - Unto thee will I cry, O LORD my rock;
be not silent to me: lest, if thou be silent to me,
I become like them that go down into the pit.
Daniel 7:13 - I saw in the night visions, and,
behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds
of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they
brought him near before him.
Do away with all that confusion
Enemies of God gather across the land
Things have truly
Really gotten out of hand
And there's a roadblock up ahead
Expect delays on a six-lane low way
Situation is so dread
Everybody them try to get ahead
While the Beast is waiting
Around the corner
To collect from all this dis-order
Stench is rising in the air
The people them not thinking very clear
Like a canary in a miner's cave
I'm sending out another warning
Y2K unrealiable
Air quality not acceptable
Dangerous levels it's incredible
Environment so unstable
Fossil fuel is the blood of Mother Earth
Sucked from the veins of our eternal re-birth
Now in shock going in convulsion
Earthquake, volcano tempers erupting
Babylon devise its own destruction
Leadership I say it's full of corruption
 
But the singers and the
Players of instruments shall be there
All my springs are in thee
Psalm 87:7 - As well the singers as the players
on instruments shall be there: all my springs are in thee.
And in counsel there is deliverance -
I and I made to be free

Chorus
