Bow down
To the greatest corrupter
The second coming
Of the Antichrist on Earth
Live with a curse
Kill in the name of god
The devil’s won
Knife in the back
We ignored the truth
Rise above, rise above
Rise above, rise above
Can you see through the veil that covers you?
Rise above, rise above
Rise above, rise above
Evil in place of power
Awoke by a thief
In the night of retribution
Pandemic welcoming
Of your final solution
We are cursed
An idol to be your god
The devil’s won
Knife in the back
We ignored the truth
Rise above, rise above
Rise above, rise above
Can you see through the veil that covers you?
Rise above, rise above
Rise above, rise above
Evil in place of power
Knife in the back
We ignored the truth
Rise above, rise above
Rise above, rise above
Can you see through the veil that covers you?
Rise above, rise above
Rise above, rise above
Evil in place of
Power, power, power
Evil in place of power

Max Cavalera:
It’s a really cool groove song, inspired by propaganda. The lyrics are about how our leaders use their power for evil, all the way from Hitler to Trump. It’s a political disease. So it has a cool, Chaos A.D. kind of topic. And it’s a double-bass thrash song; I feel good about that.
