歌词
( Notre Dame cathedral in Paris…)
VERSE 1
I seen it before it painted the perfect picture
Just out my window ..
appeared the strangest figure
But something ain’t right
It seemed like a dream to me
As far as my eyes could see
CHORUS 1
It was falling..
Burning of the crown ... the crown
It was falling..
Burning to the ground ... the crown
It was falling down
Burning of the crown ... the crown
POST
Told from the ashes to glory
(somebody burned up the crown)
We got to tell a different story now
(somebody burned up the crown)
Turn this scene upside down city folks
Kneeling down on the ground
VERSE 2
Fire on the crown
What’ll we do know ?
(Raise love till we figure it out)
We Raise Love
(Sleeping on the ground)
We Raise love till we figure it all out
(HORNS)
These days are forced upon us
See .. something ain’t right
It seemed like a dream to me
As far as my eyes could see
CHORUS 2
It was falling…
Burning of the crown ... the crown
It was falling..
Burning to the ground ... the crown
The crown was falling down to the ground
Burning of the crown ... the crown
Somebody save the crown
BREAK (afro-beat)
SPEAK ...
Now the story must be told a little different now
Can’t believe what’s happening before their eyes
no one talks about how it started
first thing they say is we got to replace it
Talking bout gathering up all the money, all the funds we can get..
as fast as we can
Meanwhile......
People are dying …people are hungry
People are sleeping outside
Glory
The joys and the sadness across the land
People shout with Joy
Making joys that’s distorted by man
gotta understand… People sleeping on the ground
People gotta sleep on the ground
Watching the world..
from a different point of view
How bout you…
