“I was watching the R. Kelly documentary [Surviving R. Kelly] and I could not believe the amount of people that helped allow this man do this for so long.

The Defiant Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Explicit deviance
Don't have to hide
Display their wealth of sin right 'fore our eyes
Complicit in ruin
Protect with lies
Defenestrate, destroy
Mock and victimize
[Pre-Chorus]
Nothing to gain
Playing their games
Always the same
Corruption betrays
[Chorus]
I stand in defiance of your ways
The defiant, the defiant
Nothing can absolve you from this hate
The defiant, the defiant in your way
[Verse 2]
Explicit deviance
Don't have to hide
Display their wealth of sin right 'fore our eyes
Complicit in ruin
Protect with lies
Defenestrate, destroy
Mock and victimize
[Pre-Chorus]
Nothing to gain
Playing their games
Always the same
Corruption betrays
[Chorus]
I stand in defiance of your ways
The defiant, the defiant
Nothing can absolve you from this hate
The defiant, the defiant in your way
[Post-Chorus]
Nothing can absolve you from this hate
(This hate, this hate)
[Bridge]
I stand in defiance of your ways
Nothing can absolve you from this hate
The defiant in your way
The defiant
The defiant in your way
The defiant
The defiant in your way
[Chorus]
I stand in defiance of your ways
The defiant, the defiant
Nothing can absolve you from this hate
The defiant, the defiant in your way

“Matt brought in the demo for this one, and right away I felt like it had an almost [Trivium’s 2005 album] Ascendancy-type vibe to it. When I wrote the lyrics, I had just watched that R. Kelly documentary, and I was thinking about how bad people don’t always just happen in a vacuum. There’s people b...
