Leaving Babylon
When the masters call the tune
The people dance, dance, dance
And their eyes won't overlook you
There's not a chance, chance, chance
Fear is what their selling
And all the world is buying
But I don't want to buy that product no more
Beauty's in the beholder's sight
So close your eyes, eyes, eyes
That's what they've been telling you
But it's all lies, lies, lies
Look you'll see the darkness everywhere
Can't you sense the hatred in the air?
But you won't see me anymore
Cause I'm leaving Babylon
There's too much evil to ignore
That's why I'm heading for Zion
Better a servant in the temple of God
Than king of an evil world
I'm afraid they know about us
We better run, run, run
And if you'll take my advice
Pack a gun, gun, gun
Well don't show your face
And don't dare trust a soul
And don't look back 'til you're far beyond their control
But you won't see me anymore
Cause I'm leaving Babylon
There's too much evil to ignore
That's why I'm heading for Zion
Better a servant in the temple of God
Than king of an evil world
You gotta run, run, run
You gotta run, run, run
The people dance, dance, dance
And their eyes won't overlook you
There's not a chance, chance, chance
Fear is what their selling
And all the world is buying
But I don't want to buy that product no more
Beauty's in the beholder's sight
So close your eyes, eyes, eyes
That's what they've been telling you
But it's all lies, lies, lies
Look you'll see the darkness everywhere
Can't you sense the hatred in the air?
But you won't see me anymore
Cause I'm leaving Babylon
There's too much evil to ignore
That's why I'm heading for Zion
Better a servant in the temple of God
Than king of an evil world
I'm afraid they know about us
We better run, run, run
And if you'll take my advice
Pack a gun, gun, gun
Well don't show your face
And don't dare trust a soul
And don't look back 'til you're far beyond their control
But you won't see me anymore
Cause I'm leaving Babylon
There's too much evil to ignore
That's why I'm heading for Zion
Better a servant in the temple of God
Than king of an evil world
You gotta run, run, run
You gotta run, run, run
