In this song megalomania and the new order gives Nikki a power rush. He and many others think their actions are bringing about positive change.
[Verse 1]
They've given me a mission, I don't really know the game yet
I'm bent on submission, religion is to blame
I'm the new messiah, death angel with a gun
Dangerous in my silence, deadly to my cause
[Pre-Chorus]
Speak to me
The pain you feel
[Chorus]
Speak the word (Revolution)
The word is all of us
[Verse 2]
I've given my life to become what I am
To preach the new beginning, to make you understand
To reach some point of order, utopia in mind
You've got to learn to sacrifice to leave what's now behind
[Pre-Chorus]
Speak to me (Speak to me)
The pain you feel (The pain you feel)
[Chorus]
Speak the word
The word is all of us
Speak the word
The word is all of us
[Bridge]
Seven years of power, the corporation claw
The rich control the government, the media, the law
To make some kind of difference then everyone must know
Eradicate the fascists, revolution will grow
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
The system we learn says we're equal under law
But the streets are reality, the weak and poor will fall
Let's tip the power balance and tear down their crown
Educate the masses, we'll burn the White House down
[Pre-Chorus]
Speak to me (Speak to me)
The pain you feel (The pain you feel)
Speak to me (Speak to me)
The pain you feel (The pain you feel)
[Chorus]
Speak the word (Revolution)
The word is all of us
Speak the word (Revolution)
The word is all of us
Speak the word (Speak to me)
The word is all of us
Speak the word
The word is all of us
