Tribe One - Oppenheimer lyrics

[Hook: WarRock, Tribe One, & Schaffer the Darklord] X 2 And we came and we saw And the city watched it fall And we built underground In the shadow of a cloud And the ash and the snow And the sun never showed Not its face not its warmth All the walls fall down [Verse 1: Adam WarRock] Look upon my work see mighty and despair Heh so listen here Call me the king of kings And I built these things on a dead angel's wings Watch the clouds shattered dreams As the embers and the steam Spread debris from the leaves of the withering trees And the pretty people kneel Ash and statues deceased The minute that light breeze Blows its way through the streets I am legend I am dinosaur [?] read Born like this Wrote a song like this And it formed like this In a palm like this And it dropped on the innocent Uninformed like this Conduct experiments We gather evidence Meet the city in a lab coat Every word I have spoke Captured on a clipboard And archived to the records we go We dropped the bomb thirty five minutes ago [Hook X 2] And we came and we saw And the city watched it fall And we built underground In the shadow of a cloud And the ash and the snow And the sun never showed Not its face not its warmth All the walls fall down [Verse 2: Schaffer the Darklord] As we look for the sun on those first dire days "Oh my god! What have we done?!" Are not the words I will say Nay in my heart I always knew we were right When we chose to display unprecedented nuclear might The sights of all tumbled towers Gla** and steel splintered Night falls a never-ending December infinite winter In the fallout I will callout to see who's still alive Before we diagnose society too sick to survive There have always been men to step-in in the event When a civilization reaches the peak of its decadence Nobel invented dynamite in the fear of its reach To clear new sand castles first you gotta clear the beach We will rewrite history Free of a biased hand not by a pious man But by a man of science and Not by the bible's plan though in that holy screed They were right about the horsemen Though there were only three [Hook] X 2 And we came and we saw And the city watched it fall And we built underground In the shadow of a cloud And the ash and the snow And the sun never showed Not its face not its warmth All the walls fall down [Verse 3: Tribe One] Every man wants to leave a legacy 'cause we believe our destiny Is greatness to proclaim far and wide But this isn't how I want them to remember me 'cause I just signed my name in fire and flame across the sky And the loss of life that will result is not known But in the mushroom cloud I see the skull and crossbones The ones that push the bu*tons Are the ones that watch thrones And they're viewing at a safe distance from the hot zone And now the blood is on my hands I trusted modern man They spoke of love but it was just another song and dance They told me I was put upon the Earth to leave a mark But never did I dream I would visibly see the scars And I say, "Now I am become d**h Destroyer of Worlds" the Angel of the sun set Snuffed out every candle on the cake with one breath My greatest mistake will take until there's none left
