subsequentseer Revolted Masses have a knack for songwriting. Today plenty of bands have the technical chops but few can craft a full length album as well put together as Rise. Perfect blend of aggression, melody and most importantly restraint! Killer album!! Favorite track: The Favourites of God.

Rise 04:06
Realize You're living in a lie Satisfied? Is it what you're hoping for? Nod to lies Afraid you'll be cast out You know what's wrong Are you content with what you're allowed? Society always preaches Consume like everybody else The more you do, the better Thrive, society, thrive! In the expense of your weaker ones Being crushed under capital’s feet Kill, society, kill! Feed the monster that you hide underneath. Wake, you need to wake From this state of passive apathy See, you need to see See who wins by inactivity You deny what you have And get what’s been denied We will stand upon our feet The time has come to rise A hollow titan’s laughter The spark that lights our rage You have been mocked and ridiculed, lied to a sickening point Wake, you need to wake From this state of passive apathy See, you need to see See who wins by inactivity Learn, you need to learn Learn the power that you idly hide Rise, you need to rise Rise to oppose, rise for your life You deny what you have And get what’s been denied We will stand upon our feet The time has come to rise Awaken your mind from The culture that numbs you Care for one another Open your eyes and rise

Why? Why should I care for all of them? Why should I give a fuck about society? This question’s always in my head The devil on my shoulder, but I find Myself Screaming against the tide I can’t let myself To drown inside apathy The one that leaves me cold inside The serpent’s tongue that tells you “Leave them helpless”, “Survival of the fittest is the game” It slithers in my ears Everyday I lose my faith to people Humankind, Is it a lost cause? An endless fight, Stand on a razor’s edge Right or wrong? I’ll make a change, I will find Myself Screaming against the tide I can’t lose myself To ignorance, I find Myself Trying to dam the sea Trying to fight my urge My impulse to apathy The protectors, the destroyers Create and kill, love and detest Internal, forever The duality of man

White flavor tones The favorites of god Lesser demise, Looks insignificant No burden, no remorse Reapers chose sides Delete the frames The frames that force the rage Embrace the lies And weave them in The fabric of reality Paralyzed in silence Under a white blank veil Televised for consciousness Choose your fucking empathy Poor timid rat Will you roll another dice? Bury the dead, You will without a touch No burden, no remorse Pray for yourself For winds to come And cleanse the rot inside A seed to raise, A child to bury you When your life turns to dust Paralyzed in silence Under a white blank veil Televised for consciousness Concealing worthless deaths Paralyzed in silence Behind the screen of slumber Guided charity for sale Choose your fucking empathy Tragedy only close to us Third world – we call them casualties Ranking human lives Tell me, how important is yours?

Forgive me father, for I have sinned, I have a question for thee Can a sinner like me be accepted? Will I own the key to eternal bliss? You have a chance, a chance for heaven But you have to pay the price Maybe you’ll meet, meet your savior, Empty your pockets for your Christ An uphill struggle for the many, The Pearly Gates are open for the few Obey the cardinal, the mouth of the Lord Once in a lifetime grant, miss it and burn in Hell You have a chance, a chance for heaven But you have to pay the price Maybe you’ll meet, meet your savior, Empty your pockets for your Christ I tried so hard to please the Lord, my hands are drained from labor Am I not worthy of his grace Have I not suffered enough? NOT ENOUGH BE AFRAID HELL AWAITS FOR YOUR SOUL You’re only thieves in holy robes False merchants of a paradise Not worth my blood, not anymore, I exorcise you from my life

Moral Panic 03:58
Innovation became a trend Codified, broken to pieces A subculture's about to end Nailed with a dominant framework of meanings Progressing in reverse A clockwork universe Otherness served with old mindsets Trivialized, domesticated Modern aliens turned into pets Moral panic round our hands and necks Progressing in reverse A clockwork universe It feels so odd It feels so odd to the odd-looking one It feels so wrong (In this time of modern age) It feels so wrong that my life's on display It feels so odd (In this time of constant change) It feels so odd to the odd-looking one (So odd to the odd-looking one) Integrating reaction Spitting back enlightened minds Blessed are those who mourn For they will be comforted

Modern deathstyle Living our life through zeros and ones But we want more An endless sea of brand-new nothings Bigger Better Faster A modern deathstyle Where all slaves are free Hostile, a man that cannot be Hollow, progressive middle age Modern pet demands a modern cage Bow to the screen Checking in to find out we are still alive We aim high But the arrows cannot reach the sky Bigger Better Faster A modern deathstyle Where all slaves are free Hostile, a man that cannot be Hollow, progressive middle age Modern pet demands a modern cage Standing in line For hours and hours When your turn comes You will be dead

Can someone make it right? Someone take my pain away The man is dressed in white The man says it’s okay More, more, I want it all Give me all the luxury I long for Pharma pockets get filled at once Pills are swallowed as fast as you can You gave an oath to heal But now your greed is all you see White coat mafia It's their word against yours Trust is shattered Time for the vultures to feast More, more, I want it all I'd sell my life for just another dose You gave an oath to heal But now your greed is all you see Immerse your patients into lethargy That soon will turn to misery You stand on the ruins of a life That misguided choices destroyed Dependent to the drug Let the poison flow freely

Stigma 03:40
Descendants of right Your dreams become their prey Dictatorship of the few, They reap, they burn the hope Call of consent The guilty one has to pay Trapped in canvas And dressed in colors of shame Branded for life, The arrest only matters Abused, abased, Let’s talk about your moral codes Pushed, enforced, To get you in their trap And be marked... To be a criminal Beaten, kneeling on the ground To be repentant Facing the law, fair as it is People say "hate is blind" But it's got a perfect mark Stabbing over and over again Your skin, your soul, your mind To be a criminal Beaten, kneeling on the ground To be repentant Facing the law, fair as it is “Social misfits You need to be conformed As humbled, obedient Lambs of god Future's already carved With unbroken laws In your DNA In a perfect world”

Martyrs 05:54
A useless system without any effect Created just for show Appeasing citizens In danger times, when people cried for help You disappointed You came up short Helpless and forsaken Victims murdered by neglect Wide-eyed in their final hour Betrayed and left on their own Tragedy means TV time, shedding crocodile tears Nothing to offer now, Nothing to ease the pain Living off our own expense, Just like a parasite Idle to the suffering Do you think we need them still? Helpless and forsaken Victims murdered by neglect Wide-eyed in their final hour Betrayed and left on their own A barren desolate wasteland Seared bodies lie all around Petrified in a begging stance Children forever in their mother’s arms Helpless and forsaken Victims murdered by neglect Wide-eyed in their final hour Betrayed and left on their own
