Holy War
False Flag Attack Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Videos showing decapitations getting more and more
You finally moved out to bring us your holy war
Is this really what your god wants to see?
Faithfull men that are going on a killing spree
Slaughter everyone that doesn't believe in your god
Cut off their while they're on their knees
I guess thats what they call it praying
In your religion of peace

Can you tell me what are you fighting for
When you move out to bring the world the holy war
Religion is bringing us death once more
We would be better off without religious whores

Look at what your god has done
Fanatics killing infidels all one by one
Men get slaughtered and their women get raped
Blow up yourself and kill infidels
Your god will reward you with virgins
But is it really worth it?
A religion of peace started the holy war
Proving to me that religion is shit once more

Fuck your holy war

Can you tell me what are you fighting for
Religion is bringing us death once more




We would be better off without religious whores
Fuck your holy war

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of False Flag Attack's song "Holy War" delve into the concept of religious extremism and violence in the name of God. The opening lines describe the disturbing trend of videos depicting gruesome acts like decapitations becoming more prevalent, symbolizing the escalation of violence carried out in the name of one's faith. The song challenges the belief that such violent actions are what a god truly desires to witness, questioning the morality of faithful individuals perpetrating acts of brutality in the name of their religion. The imagery of "slaughtering everyone that doesn't believe in your god" and cutting off their heads while they pray conveys a stark, unsettling picture of religiously motivated violence.


The lyrics continue to criticize the motivations behind embarking on a "holy war," with a call for introspection on the part of those who engage in such acts of violence. The repetition of the question "Can you tell me what are you fighting for" highlights the lack of clear objectives or justification for the bloodshed perpetrated in the name of religion. The song condemns the notion that religion, which is meant to bring spiritual enlightenment and peace, has instead become a catalyst for death and destruction, labeling those who engage in violent acts as "religious whores" who corrupt the true essence of faith.


The narrative shifts to a condemnation of the atrocities committed in the name of a deity, with a stark portrayal of fanatics killing and raping those they deem as infidels. The chilling imagery of individuals being encouraged to blow themselves up in the belief that they will be rewarded in the afterlife with virgins raises questions about the warped motivations behind such acts of violence. The lyrics suggest that the promise of divine rewards does not justify the horrors inflicted in the name of a "religion of peace," highlighting the hypocrisy and contradictions inherent in religious extremism.


In the final expletive-laden declaration of "Fuck your holy war," the song decisively rejects and condemns the destructive cycle of violence perpetuated under the guise of religious fervor. The repeated assertion that "Religion is bringing us death once more" underscores the damaging impact that religious extremism has had on societies throughout history. The song ultimately advocates for a world free from the shackles of religiously fueled hatred and violence, urging listeners to reject the poisonous narratives that seek to divide and justify bloodshed in the name of faith.
