Hymn by Humbaba (band) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm formed from the essence of gods and demons alike
But I chose to be neither
So here I’m bound
I saw the dawn of man, I witnessed the birth of soil
But I neither chose to be wise, nor an ignorant fool
[Verse 2]
I viewed tyrants with crowns, fell and rose before me
But I chose not to be a master, nor a slave I be
So I chose the gifts of earth, secrets of the herbs
So I chose solitude, and lengthy tunes
[Pre-Chorus]
My bride, she is the most precious harvest I've reaped
She was the jolliest crop the earth has given
[Chrous]
No, I don't want your gold
I don’t need nothing, truth be told
In this mountain we live in peace
Get the hell out of my fields!
No, I won't let her go
Don't you dare touch my babe blue, no
Take the weed you can carry and
Get the fuck out of my fields!
[Verse 3]
He stepped to my virgin soils, and he boils with vanity
Oh, he killed my buzz on the fly, scourge of humanity
He was born in wealth and might, he witnessed his people starve
But he chose greed and vice, he chose the lies
[Pre-Chorus]
My foe, he is the most bragging bastard I've seen
He was the filthiest soul the gods have given
[Chorus]
No, I don't want your gold
I don't need nothing, truth be told
In this mountain we live in peace
Get the hell out of my fields!
No, I won't let her go
Don't you dare touch my babe blue, no
Take the weed you can carry and
Get the fuck out of my fields!
[Post-Chorus]
I strike, as he touched her, and Babylon prevailed
A swing, through my neck, and Babylon prevailed
She watched, with no tears, and Babylon prevailed
I lay, with no feels, so Babylon prevails
[Instrumental]
[Outro]
Man is cursed, with lust, as Babylon prevailed
Woman is cursed, with distrust, as Babylon prevailed
Deception, Oppression, as Babylon prevailed
Thus, for thousands of years, will Babylon prevail
[Instrumental]
