Big City LifeBY MATTAFIX
BIG CITY LIFE - MATTAFIXBig city life, Me try forget get by, Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try.
Big city life, Here my heart
have no base, And right now Babylon de pon me case.
People in a show, All lined in a row.
We just push on by, Its funny,
How hard we try.
BabylonActual place and a Biblical reference
Why is it significant?
• In the Bible, Babylon is mentioned from Genesis to Revelation, as it rises from its rebellious beginnings to become a symbol of the Antichrist’s evil world system.
• Genesis 11: Babylon has a reputation as a city of rebellion against God. From then on, Babylon was used as a symbol of evil and defiance
• Faced many internal upheavals
Take a moment to relax. Before you do anything rash.
Don't you want to know me? Be a friend of mine.
I'll share some wisdom with you. Don't you ever get
lonely, From time to time Don't let the system get you down
[Chorus]
Soon our work is done, All of us one by one.
Still we live our lives, As if all this stuff survives.I take a moment to relax, Before I do anything rash.
[Bridge]
The linguist across the seas and the oceans, A permanent Itinerant is what I’ve chosen.
I find myself in big city prison, arisen from the vision of mankind.Designed, to keep me discreetly neatly in the corner, You'll find me with the flora and the fauna and the hardship. Back a yard is where my heart is still I find it hard to depart this big city life.
