[Schäffer the Darklord, Tribe One, Adam WarRock - Oppenheimer lyrics]
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 it's face not it's warmth
All the walls fall down
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 it's 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
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 it's face not it's warmth
All the walls fall down
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
Glass 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 it's decadence
Nobel invented dynamite in the
Fear of it's 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
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 it's face not it's warmth
All the walls fall down
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 buttons
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 death
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
