Never Surrender
Combichrist (No Redemption) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Self medicating, craving punishment
Blaming myself for a world on fire
No more shame, no more pity
No more
We rise from the ashes

I will suffer
I will burn
Let the hate prevail
Enslave my soul
But I'll never surrender

Silent words from a bleeding mouth
Swallows pride with a swollen tongue
Everything is nothing, life in a shallow grave
Too ashamed to feel joy life collecting dust
No more shame, no more pity
No more
We rise from the ashes

I will suffer
I will burn
Let hate prevail
Enslave my soul
but I'll never surrender

I will suffer
I will burn
Let hate prevail
Enslave my soul
but I'll never surrender

Mental cancer hijacks your brain
Denying the reality you created for yourself
We rise from the ashes

I will suffer
I will burn
Let hate prevail
Enslave my soul
but I'll never surrender

I will suffer
I will burn
Let hate prevail
Enslave my soul
but I'll never surrender

Never surrender
Never surrender
Never surrender
Never surrender
Never surrender
Never surrender




Never surrender
Never surrender

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Combichrist's song "Never Surrender" speak to a sense of self-destructiveness and self-blame that is common in many people's lives. The singer is "self medicating, craving punishment," and blames themselves for the problems of the world. However, this self-destructive and negative cycle is broken with the repeated refrain "no more shame, no more pity, no more, we rise from the ashes." This sense of "rising from the ashes" is a powerful metaphor for overcoming struggles and challenging times, as the singer chooses to "never surrender" even when facing mental illness or other difficult emotions.


The second verse reinforces the sense of self-blame and punishment, with the singer describing having "silent words from a bleeding mouth," and feeling too ashamed to feel joy. However, even in this darkness, the refrain encourages the listener to resist the temptation to surrender or give up. The powerful verses and repeated chorus of the song create a strong sense of resilience, and the repeated line "never surrender" serves as a powerful mantra for anyone struggling with feelings of shame, self-blame, or mental illness.

​​@@Yeet2990 I understand.Sorry for my english too,i am Brazilian ,and i not using translator. But, even after many time,i played all the games of the franchaise,and still,didnt understand why people hate this game.Donte surely is a bad character and hateful in the beginning of the game,but,later on,he is a character worthy of charisma. In this game there is a great amount of parrys that even i,didnt know.Note that DmC is a game of 2013,and i didnt even know that yoy could parry Bob Barbas,Hunter's hand (after he send his grapple in the ground)Succubus,(If you parry his hands,theres a animation of demon pull).
Is a easy game in lower dificultys,but in higher ones,is a hell to complete.I am already in GMD (Gods Must Die)Dificulty on DE and i can confirm that this game,sometimes,can be a pain on ass.


Edit:Still,i understand why people hated this game. I just discovered now,but,Ninja Theory spoke bad things from the classic characters. I forgot what they say,but i think they said Classic Dante was a Gay Cowboy,Trish was a prostitute and the other one i dont remember.But look in the youtube,you certainly will find.


Edit 2:Heres the link to show the parrys,in case if you are curious.

Selfie mad aching, craving the punishment
Wiping myself for a world on fire
No more shaves, no more hay
No more (WE RUN FROM THE ASSES)

I'm a surfer, Alma Burn
Lex ate the bale
They sprayed my soap but I'd rather surrender

Soggiest words from a bleeding mouth
Swollow's pride with a swollen tum
Everythings nutting, lie with a shabby grape
With a shat filled joy, I like collecting dust
No more shaves, no more hay
No more (WE RUN FROM THE ASSES)

I'm a surfer, Alma Burn
Lex ate the bale
They sprayed my soap but I'd rather surrender
I'm a surfer, Alma Burn
Lex ate the bale
They sprayed my soap but I'd rather surrender

Metal can her, hijack your braid
DIY the reality you created for your shelf
Run from the asses (RUN FROM THE ASSES)

I'm a surfer, Alma Burn
Lex ate the bale
They sprayed my soap but I'd rather surrender (NECA, SURRENDER)
I'm surfer, Alma Burn
Lex ate the bale
They sprayed my soap but I'd rather surrender (NECA, SURRENDER)

NECA surrender x8

(Misheard lyrics)

All of Dante’s themes have one solid line
“My chosen torture makes me stronger”
“I WILL SUFFER, I WILL BURN”
“I must not forget, that I have bled”

@jotarojoestar3533

Agreed

@punishedwhispers1218

Thats youre main take away from this? Not 'Enslave my soul but I'LL NEVER SURRENDER'

@punishedwhispers1218

@dudeguy "Intolerance, self glorified ignorance
That sucked you down with your face pushed against the fence
Why don't you finish yourself, since you don't really care
Let the screams in your head be the last thing you hear"
