Superior
Necrot
Rebellion Against the Illusion of Superiority
Necrot's song 'Superior' is a powerful critique of societal hierarchies and the manipulation of the masses by those in power. The lyrics question the reality of life and the truth that is often concealed by those who seek to control. The song opens with a sense of disillusionment, highlighting how fear is used as a tool to divide and conquer, with the powerful growing richer while the common people suffer. This theme of manipulation is underscored by the imagery of 'washing brains' to hide the truth, emphasizing the deceitful tactics employed by the elite to maintain their superiority.
The chorus, 'No gods no masters,' serves as a rallying cry against authoritarianism and the false sense of superiority held by the ruling class. Necrot suggests that the more the powerful take, the more they desire, using fear to tighten their grip on control. The song questions the sincerity of those in power, pointing out the hypocrisy in their claims of care and concern. The lyrics predict a severe downfall for these 'greedy masters,' asserting that their extinction is inevitable. This reflects a broader theme of resistance and the eventual collapse of corrupt systems.
In the final verses, the song calls for a rejection of the ways of the powerful and a refusal to obey their manipulative tactics. The imagery of 'suited creeps faking smiles' paints a vivid picture of the insincerity and exploitation perpetuated by those in power. Necrot emphasizes that no one should feel superior, as ultimately, only death will persevere. This stark reminder of mortality serves to equalize all, stripping away the illusions of superiority and control. The song concludes with a powerful assertion that all empires, no matter how mighty, will eventually fall, reinforcing the message of resistance and the transient nature of power.
