Regime Change by Disciple

on my way home tonight from work i was listening to this song by Disciple. ive listen to it many times but this time, instead of singing along or going with the music, i decided to stop and listen to the words.  

they really spoke out to me. Disciple references to Romans 12:2, saying, "Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--his good, pleasing, perfect will."

I know many people are not a fan of the whole screaming thing but if you can get past it and actually listen and read the lyrics, it can be a great and powerful song!




Build it up, I’ll tear it down  
My finger in the strings connected to your hands  
I dance the mockery, a theme of decadence  

Now I am sinking in this violence  
This time, emancipation is my right   T
his is what I want, for you to die  
This is what I want, to be alive   

Scene of complacency, an apathetic mind  
But when it’s brought to light, I see a king on a borrowed throne  

Right now, the violence taking over  
This time, regimes are changing in my mind   

I’m so sorry, my old friend, I’m leaving you tonight 
 So caught in this moment, the last breath of your life
