Babylon in some religions has been used as a symbol of “the world” or wickedness and evil. This song reflects a person’s decision to turn away from “worldly” ways and to live a better way.
Lyrics!
[Verse 1]
Woke up in a world of smoke and shame,
Where every smile just hides the game.
I wore the mask, I played along,
But every lie just felt so wrong.
They taught me silence, taught me sin,
But never showed the fight within.
Now the fire’s lighting up my chest—
I won’t go back, I won’t regret.
[Pre-Chorus]
No more gold that turns to rust,
No more faith in what I can’t trust.
Truth is rising in my bones,
And I’m walking out alone.
[Chorus]
I’m breaking Babylon! (Babylon!)
Now is the time for men to see—
The man I was, the man I’ll be,
My choices were never ecstasy.
I’m breaking Babylon! (Babylon!)
Tearing it down, brick by brick.
I found my voice, I found my grip—
I’m done with all their dirty tricks.
So light the match, let truth ignite,
I’ll stand alone if I must fight.
This is the day, the line, the sound—
I’m not the one who backs down now.
[Verse 2]
They told me “power makes you free,”
But freedom’s not what they believe.
A hollow crown, a poisoned name,
I’d rather burn than play that game.
The fire’s rising in my chest,
Burning lies I once confessed.
This is the break, the clean, the cut—
I won’t be chained by what I’m not.
[Pre-Chorus]
No more kings with plastic thrones,
No more blood for borrowed bones.
The fire’s real, the soul is loud—
I’m not backing down.
[Chorus]
I’m breaking Babylon! (Babylon!)
Now is the time for men to see—
The man I was, the man I’ll be,
My choices were never ecstasy.
I’m breaking Babylon! (Babylon!)
Tearing it down, brick by brick.
I found my voice, I found my grip—
I’m done with all their dirty tricks.
So light the match, let truth ignite,
I’ll stand alone if I must fight.
This is the day, the line, the sound—
I’m not the one who backs down now.
[Bridge]
You can keep your empty crown,
Your halls of gold are falling down.
You built it high, but not on truth—
I’m rising now. I’ve seen the proof.
[Final Chorus – Big and layered]
I’m breaking Babylon! (Babylon!)
Now is the time for men to see—
The man I was, the man I’ll be,
My choices were never ecstasy.
I’m breaking Babylon! (Babylon!)
Tearing it down, brick by brick.
I found my voice, I found my grip—
I’m done with all their dirty tricks.
So light the match, let truth ignite,
I’ll stand alone if I must fight.
This is the day, the line, the sound—
I’m not the one who backs down now.
[Outro]
Babylon…
It’s breaking now…
And I won’t bow.
