Verso 1 (voce baritono lirico con raddoppio in falsetto stile reggae): 🎶 Arch of time bend low, dem city walls crumble Wind in the cello, thunder in the jungle Place of the kings now a temple of stone Lyrics in riddim, I chant all aloneVerso 2 (soprano lirico + risposta in spoken word profondo, stile Tom Waits): 🎶 Sang I from towers of rage and gold, But silence deeper than tales ever told “All that glitters is ash,” she cries, And trumpets mourn beneath the skies Bridge – Charleston rhythm + Reggae bubble keys 🎺 (voce scat jazz + linea swingata): Dance, while Babylon burns, Marionette with no turns, Waltz with your shadow, child of the night One more drop, then comes the light Verso 3 (duetto: soprano & reggae toaster): 🎶 🎙️ (Soprano): "Rise up from silence, oh souls in disguise" 🎤 (Toaster): "Sound bwoy light fire inna Babylon skies!" Climax: Full drop con scratching e brass jazz band 🎧 DJ Cut: “Drop it like prophecy... one time, two time... ROOTS!”
