about

When the song didn't have final lyrics yet, it was named "Battle". The lyrics basically tell the story of the silent film "Battleship Potemkin", especially the famous Odessa Steps sequence.

lyrics

Smash the plate with rotten meat on it
and fucking scream out loud
We’ve had enough of this …shit
Time to throw the maggots in the sea
and raise our fist right now
We… we are more than them

Left, right, left, right, aim, shoot, kill, die!
Left, right, left, right, aim, shoot, kill, die!

Stick together whether rich or poor,
even if one of us dies
We still are one
Faceless soldiers coming closer step by step
their guns held high
We must resist

Left, right, left, right, aim, shoot, kill, die!
Left, right, left, right, aim, shoot, kill, die!

Iron salvation will dispossess what possessed us

Fight this battle, we are brothers
Fight this battle, united
Fight this battle, we are brothers
Fight this battle, we are not alone
We are not alone
