Tiye Phoenix - “Dem A Fall”

[Verse 1: Tiye Phoenix]

Straight out the gate, bloodshed, I'm taking heads

You made a pledge with the Devil, y’all breaking bread

In the wrong place, caught a case with the Feds

Like folks said, “Let the dead lay with the dead”

No pity, I ain't got no sympathy

Throw ‘em to the wolves, bang on ‘em like a tympani

That's played in a symphony, invading on the enemy

Slaving for a dollar ain’t never made sense to me

I'm deaf to your music, I nevеr played it

No depth, no soul, made ovеrrated

Didn't see the outcome, they underestimated

It's the ending of their world, and they can't save it

Smack fool if they act too clueless

Time to get it popping, real grassroots movements

Clash of the Titans—pour the roses—calling

More soldiers—don't cry when your door closes


[Hook: Tiye Phoenix]

The wicked? Dem a fall, don't see it

Coming (Coming)

Babylon walls? Dem a come

Crumbling, crumbling down

(Crumbling down) Crumbling down

(Crumbling down) Crumbling down

(Crumbling down) Crumbling down

Dem a fall


[Verse 2: Tiye Phoenix]

Pandemic? Dem a panic, everybody manic

Hell is like an everyday condition on the planet

Microchips planted in your skin, they wanna scan it

Racism since Columbus crossed the Atlantic

The empire's now falling like London Bridge is

Smart niggas out here making dumb decisions

They want us all under one rule, one religion

See ‘em close schools, turn around and fund prisons

We never fathomed this. Hard to imagine this

Need to raise up like Lazarus—where all my strategists?

They think I’m chanting in voodoo

I don’t care—fuck their stamp of approval

Shift in power, the hour's getting close

The parasite’s about to be devoured by the host

The rejected stones coming home, run the throne

It's such a thunderous tone when the trumpets are blown
