Description

The track sounds like a march written on worn-out boots and machine oil stains. It's not about glitz and glamor - it's dust, fatigue and some kind of stubborn desire to stay “on topic”, even if the world is collapsing under its own rhythm.

Religious images coexist with morning coffee of the “best quality,” and serious words are diluted with almost carnival irony: dancing to the sound of “annihilation” and arguing about anything, just not to drop out of the game.

The music presses and lifts at the same time, like a conversation that began with philosophy and ended with laughter in the kitchen under the first light of the morning. It seems that this is exactly what the desire to be “relevant” sounds like in a world where everything is reset too quickly.

Lyrics and translation

Original

Oil stains
On my boots again
Handful of fights
Up the hill, all night
Keep it going, steady by my side
Biblical hands
Wash my rugged face
Shake it to the sound of obliteration
Shake it to the sound of annihilation
Shake it to the sound of obliteration
Shake it to the sound of annihilation
Gods wake up before dawn rushes in
Pour me a cup of America’s finest
Gods wake up before dawn rushes in
Pour me a cup of America’s finest
I wanna stay relevant, I wanna keep up, keep up with you
I wanna stay relevant, I wanna keep up, keep up with you
I wanna stay relevant, I wanna debate, debate with you
I wanna stay relevant, I wanna debate, debate with you
Keep it going, steady by my side
Biblical hands
Wash my rugged face
Shake it to the sound of obliteration
Shake it to the sound of annihilation
Shake it to the sound of obliteration
Shake it to the sound of annihilation
Gods wake up before dawn rushes in
Yeah pour me a cup of America’s finest
Gods wake up before dawn rushes in
Yeah pour me a cup of America’s finest
Oh God bless you child, oh God bless ya
Oh God bless this land, oh God bless it
Hurry up Madam Sovereign don’t keep the hounds waiting
What is your best tactic to defuse a false statement
I wanna stay relevant, I wanna keep up, keep up with you
I wanna stay relevant, I wanna keep up, keep up with you
I wanna stay relevant, I wanna debate, debate with you
I wanna stay relevant, I wanna debate, debate with you
God’s wake up…
God’s wake up, the brightest hour
God’s wake up, there’s nothing to do…
