Orion Shall Rise
Syrian Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Red light
Fire in the sky
Loud blast
Rockets in the night

Watch out
Aliens flying high
They are

Invaders from the sky

They say we need evolution
But they got just revolution
They say we have bad intentions
But war was their own invention

Orion shall rise
Join the resistance

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Syrian's song "Orion Shall Rise" depict a scenario where humanity is being threatened by alien invaders. The first stanza paints a picture of chaos and destruction with the red light, fire in the sky, and loud blast. The second stanza introduces the alien invaders as they fly high, posing a threat to humanity.

The lyrics then take a broader perspective, with Syrian questioning the intentions of these aliens. They claim that the aliens' call for evolution is nothing more than a revolution, and that they themselves are guilty of war. Syrian then urges listeners to join the resistance and support the cause of Orion's rise.

One interpretation of the song is that it is a critique of war and imperialism. The aliens in the song could be seen as representing the oppressive forces of war and violence. Syrian's call for the rise of Orion could be a call to arms for individuals to stand up against oppression and the destructive forces of war.

Red light
Warning sign, danger ahead

Fire in the sky
Awe at the sight of rocket fire

Loud blast
Deafening sound of rockets firing

Rockets in the night
Assault on the senses, unexpected attack

Watch out
Be alert, be cautious

Aliens flying high
Foreign enemies in control of the skies

They are
Identifying the enemy

Invaders from the sky
Foreign forces threatening sovereignty

They say we need evolution
Western powers insist on modernizing our systems

But they got just revolution
Their interference leads to unrest and war

They say we have bad intentions
Foreign agents spread false narratives about us
