Deadmau5 - Survivalism (Deadmau5 Remix) Lyrics






I should have listened to her
So hard to keep control
We kept on eating but our
Bloated bellies still not full
She gave us all she had but
We went and took some more
Can't seem to shut her legs our
Mother nature is a whore

I got my propaganda I got revisionism
I got my violence in high def ultra-realism
All a part of this great nation
I got my fist I got my plan I got survivalism

Hypnotic sound of sirens
Echoing through the street
The cocking of the rifles
The marching of the feet
You see your world on fire
Don't try to act surprised
We did just what you told us
Lost our faith along the way and found ourselves believing your lies

I got my propaganda I got revisionism
I got my violence in high def ultra-realism
All a part of this great nation
I got my fist I got my plan I got survivalism

All bruised and broken bleeding
She asks to take my hand
I turn and keep on walking
What you'd do the same thing in the circumstance I'm sure you understand

I got my propaganda I got revisionism
I got my violence in high def ultra-realism
All a part of this great nation
I got my fist I got my plan I got survivalism

  1. J.... f....

    WTF HE REMIXED THIS!? FRICK YEAH!
    I dont quite like EDM but an EDM artist that has an auditorium full of synths and does this, now THAT i can work with.

  2. d.... ....

    This should’ve been in Wolfenstein: The New Colossus.

  3. H.... L....

    #bannedonspotify

  4. J.... O....

    wow...i was just thinking the other day that trent reznor and deadmau5 should make a track together....both are just musical genuises and this shows it

  5. P.... c....

    OP please nerf

  6. V.... J....

    this is garbage compared to the original

  7. G.... W....

    Horrible ....

  8. M.... ....

    Fuck. It’s a masterpiece.

  9. A.... R....

    I agree with the few other comments I just read. Remix done right. Doesn’t even sound like a remix. And I’m very critical. Especially when it comes to mixing my main man Trent lol. But such an awesome track. Really love it 🖤🖤🖤

  10. S.... J....

    5urvivali5m

  11. R.... V....

    Listening to this makes me so confident

  12. T.... K....

    giO and warp begin strategies to protect Starrynight from the world's armies invading.

    If the army is using guns, it won't be hard to build a fortress.

  13. R.... S....

    Shit that snare is soo deep in the mix

  14. M.... ....

    it loses the momentum and attack that modern NIN has. disappointing.

  15. T.... A....

    *PLEASE OH PLEASE BE THE THEME FOR DOOM ETERNAL*

  16. J.... T....

    Concert Windows Error Pranksters Unite!

  17. s.... ....

    Ehhhh not really for me

  18. W.... W....

    Nine Inch Nails and Deadmau5, My 2 favourite gods together !

  19. G.... D....

    No esta mal :), pero la distorsión del drop del remix como que lo jodio un poco :/

    G.... D....

    En serio? Ahora que lo escucho mas todavia, es un remix increible. La original y el remix es fantastica uwu

  20. E.... J....

    This is a OK remix but to me its a bit slow

  21. B.... M....

    The CUCKing of the rifles.

  22. J.... S....

    Good instrumentation but the rhythmic phrasing on the drums and vocals clash on several parts.  Some drum fills in the chorus would have smoothed those out a bit.

  23. B.... I....

    KIller beats.

  24. A.... W....

    This is a terrible remix of an average NIN song. I honestly don't know why everyone is saying its amazing. (like most of his remixes) All Deadmau5 did was take the lyrics and add them to a stripped back version of the music, and in doing so just removed any substance from the song. Nice one.

    A.... W....

    Alexander Wilson you're kidding me? This remix is great, musically and its sound also

  25. g.... ....

    THOSE FUCKING DRUMS HOLY SHIT

  26. C.... S....

    I'm definitely more of a NIN fan than Deadmau5, yet I like this version better...

  27. N.... T....

    Nice song :v

  28. A.... ....

    this is good but original is better. I'm a big fan of Deadmau5 and NIN.. they are in my top 3 of bands/artists. 3rd is Tool.

  29. T.... G....

    Should've been a song on BF1

  30. T.... B....

    Who do you think you are Deadmau5. You caught the melody but in way the impact of the track. I coulda put this together in 30 mins on Ableton

    T.... B....

    You are cancer.

    T.... B....

    Thomas Bland this one definitely isn't as impressive as the rest of the album.

    T.... B....

    Okay then do it.

  31. Y.... S....

    Hate to say it, but this is way better than the original.

  32. G.... M....

    deadmau5 makes a remix of nine inch nails... um... what?
    thats crazy enough that it works!!!
    im surprised how many people don't like his new album

  33. D.... K....

    It's a sin, but better then original, sorry NIN...

  34. p.... ....

    The bass line is just like piggy lol

  35. D.... P....

    I love NIN. I really don't care for DeadMau5, but I respect his ability and creativity as a musician. This was absolutely wonderful.

    D.... P....

    He's seen as a full on EDM house type guy but on various occasions he has switched up the genres and for the most part he does top notch remixes.

  36. K.... n....

    If you are interested in survival the best results that I have had was by using the Survivor Crusher System
    (i found it on google) definately the most incredible survival i've followed.

  37. a.... ....

    Can't get enough of this SONG!

  38. G.... L....

    The worst song on the album ... Fact

    G.... L....

    +Glenn Lockett Even so, it's pretty good.

    G.... L....

    +Glenn Lockett it's different, yes... Bad? No. It is way better than the original song (IMO) and even though it doesn't fit in the album it' still sweet.

  39. t.... ....

    Perfect song to play when having sex lol

  40. J.... ....

    Goddamn, this doesn't even sound like a remix, just sounds like a really badass NIN song.

    J.... ....

    I like how his version harks back to downward spiral in it's instrumentation.

  41. w.... ....

    I don't like it, I don't feel like it's getting the atmosphere of the song right

    w.... ....

    wiencheck Yeah I dunno, it's a little slow and plodding. It sounds wrong to my ears, the way Trent starts singing faster and faster yet the backing instrumental remains slow. This lacks the urgency and punch of the original.

  42. K.... B....

    Great remix!

  43. K.... B....

    I'm a die-hard NIN fan, but even I have to admit that this remix is fantastic, even better than the original!

    K.... B....

    @K Boyd i feel the same way

  44. B.... S....

    Yeah good job very nice remix :3

  45. O.... ....

    I know he says violence, but i keep hearing "I got my violins in high def ultra realism"

    O.... ....

    @Moon yes. have you made it your goal to find the user named "Earth" ?

    O.... ....

    @Owiko7 no

    O.... ....

    @Cloud awwww :|

    O.... ....

    @Lord Raisins it's a 3 syllable word anyway

  46. P.... D....

    Deadmau5 really hit it out of the park on this remix.

  47. I.... ....

    I consider Nine Inch Nails to be my favorite band, and I thought this remix was fantastic. TweakerRay also does some great NIN remixes.

    I.... ....

    Thanks a lot ! I appreciate that. Please check out my own music too at http://tweakerray.bandcamp.com - (This is no spam ! Please don't mark it. It's so hard to get the word out - Thanks for the support)

    I.... ....

    TweakerRay thanks for that link but I already listen to most of what you put out lol

    I.... ....

    you never know ;-) Thanks for the support then ! Cheers !!!

    I.... ....

    I mean, I wouldn't scoff at new NIN remixes though. Ijs

    I.... ....

    you are awesome!

  48. D.... ....

    Almost every last dub and remix I've ever heard of this song (and I've heard a lot) has problems compensating for the dropped and added beats; a pure 4/4 dub just never sounds right IMO. This does an uncommonly good job of it.

  49. C.... G....

    two great artis at work all I got to say!!!!

  50. C.... ....

    To all of those who are saying that this remix of a five-year-old NIN song sucks: Guess what? No one cares about your opinion. Opinions are like assholes; everyone has one. 

    NIN is a rock band. Deadmau5 takes the lyrics and remixes "Survivalism" into a new song that is enjoyable to people who are fans of Electronic music. You people should be proud that your favorite music is appealing to other people who aren't even into your genre of music, and yet, you go to this song's video and start talking shit about how this remix sucks. 

    If you don't like the remix, fine. Don't waste your time by commenting on the remix's video.

    C.... ....

    @***** I try. XD

  51. W.... S....

    EARGASM ^o^

  52. V.... U....

    this actually turned out spectacular! wow!!!! original is always great, but i am surprised, this is really nice man! 

  53. L.... R....

    It is so surprising how much different the style of the song is here than the 5 year old original.

    L.... R....

    Actually I just realized that the video was uploaded 5 years ago and the song is actually much older lol....

  54. N.... F....

    to all of you that think this is boring......FUCK OFF nobody wants to hear you wyning<---my bad if i spelled that wrong wich im sure i did

    N.... F....

    Your a woody! You fuck off.

    N.... F....

    @Minecraft/Mario Fan You're*

  55. E.... ....

    The definition of a remix done right.

    E.... ....

    Empty_Space Nerf this

  56. L.... G....

    Deadmau5 and NIN, what an epic combination

    L.... G....

    Thats just narrow minded .. . i understand you deception tho , ever since trent put that software allowing people to remix his tunes there has been alota diabolicaly wank remixs floating about .. but i hope when you were writing that you actually realise that alot off the remixs on the nin alblums were not actually done by reznor? .. but i think deadmau5 is worthy tho, i think he definatly understands those slow cool amibience type tunes aswel, something like the "ghosts" album, but some NIN fans wont respect em yet because he made his name in dance ..

    L.... G....

    @adam keane narrowminded it may be, but i've listened to countless remixes of nin songs, and yes, even the remix albums of nin itself are rather picky for me. i've heard nin cover songs that sound better than people who try and remix them.

    L.... G....

    strangely enough the songs on "fixed" that i like the most are actually the ones that arent done by reznor! .. which bands covers do you prefer?

    L.... G....

    @adam keane

    Inverse Phase - Pretty Eight Machine (8-bit remake) Atariable Lie (Terrible Lie) is my favorite on the album. 

    that recent parody "This Is a Trent Reznor Song" is a funny one.

    Kawehi's cover of Closer - entirely done from scratch in her own way, she plays every instrument herself. 

    Weird Al's "Germs" that parodies several NIN songs. 

    L.... G....

    ha "This Is a Trent Reznor Song" is now constantly stuck in my head
    iv never heard of kawehi before , but shes brilliant!! .. i think i love her  ..

  57. A.... L....

    wonderful change of pace. 

  58. D.... S....

    lol kinda sounds like tommy lee singing but its not

  59. D.... B....

    great version......good to hear ppl taking a varied aproach to all things Tech!!!

  60. T.... ....

    Nice too hear he is trying something new.

  61. A.... J....

    I love how he took an upbeat, steady-paced song and turned it into a one-two-punch wall of sound.  It brings out the lyrics so well, and it sounds damn awesome.

  62. D.... V....

    I love this <3

  63. A.... ....

    really disliked this, super boring

    A.... ....

    @Minecraft/Mario Fan Do people still use noob as an insult?

    A.... ....

    @Jacob Westlake
    I quit that.
    I'm gonna change it now.

    A.... ....

    @Minecraft/Mario Fan Well, that's a relief. 

    A.... ....

    fuck off BLACKELITE095 and fuck off Amog001
