Sleeping Giant - Overthrow Lyrics

Crushing the legalist agenda? Cool it with the antisemitic remarks there haha

Finally found a good one. Likey

Shitty as fuck

All I can say about the breakdown/ending that plays from 2:06-2:44 is: FUCKING LEGENDARY!! Literally, every time I hear it, I HAVE to get up and dance/jam out HARD to it!! The band itself is legendary!! \(^o^)/

Uau... Top

KINGDOM COME!

I agree

Can I guest with you guys !????????

Amen Tommy preach it brother.

 Standing on Christ our True Messiah. We welcome you into the new reality.

Even if the musical performance was slightly underwhelming, the lyrical content is still incredible as ever. Defy the world!

Album is great :) . I listen to it all the time :) . I wonder those who hate it mhhm is the lyrics convicting ? It melodic metal and power ballad :) . Sounds like their rapping a bit .

isnt this just the eyes wide open riff with even notes?

this is complete fucking garbage.  i bet this cd will be horrible

KINGDOM COME!!!!

Yall have to understand that sleeping giant is about CHRIST first and music second as it should be.  CHRIST over all. they  are looking to do THE HOLY FATHER justice. and they do a great job at it by the way

Graet chirstian rock band

I really feel that Sleeping Giant have developed as a band, just because its a little more "melodic" doesnt mean its weak. I feel it shows maturity and moving forward. If every record sounded the same people would still winge. So whatever, haters gonna hate and all. Great job guys I love it

Love the new album. love the character of the lead singer and his band. Christian or not. Kingdom Come

These guys have put out too many albums to have not progressed musically AT ALL.  If it wasn't for the drummer, they would absolutely suck.  There is nothing new on this album, except the bizarre reference to a goblin in a horrendous speech/prayer/poem/street rap "compilation"(see the song "Violence"), that I can't listen to without rolling my eyes.  And it's that kind of thing that makes me think they are taking themselves too seriously now - the militant Christianity, once refreshing, feels forced.  As a long time fan of Sleeping Giant, this might be where I get off the train. 

As soon as I can get some good car audio installed this new album is getting blasted! :D

Did Tommy Green forget how to scream?

Excelente canción!!

This song is great!

Always uplifting to hear these guys tear it up. So positive and bold. I love it. If you all wanted Brooke then go listen to Impending! This is Sleeping Giants album! And Christian metal reigns supreme!!

The new CD is my favorite Sleeping Giant CD yet. Great hooks and passionate messages.

The atheist and Christian trolls are rolling. Seriously let's get along and actually DO that thing Jesus said and love others...geez...

Do you know what that means?

I totally agree bros 😎

Jesus Is in Love with you!!

For those who believe in a Saviour, a God, don't bother arguing with people who just refuse to listen to even one word of what we as Christians, Jews, and Muslims about the one who made us and the universe. Do not think of me as an ignorant Christian, I know plenty of science, biology and theories man has made and taught. God did give free will, and gave us the mentality and intelligence to achieve so many things. Now we are even going to Mars. But just because we will one day live among the stars, does not mean I will stop believe in a Creator, Saviour, the Lion of the Tribe of Judah. So please respect our faith, and our God. Because I have atheist and agnostic friends who at least respect my belief in a God.

sleeping giant gets more boring with every release

I concur.

Wait till everybody hears the whole album. its so good!

Until Brooke comes in it does seem Sleeping Giant has gotten less heavy, but nevertheless, im excited for the new album.

Didn't dig it.

I like it. It's different. With Tommy's vocals and Brook's brutal screams at the end, it's a good mix. I like it.

Science cant approve logically that there isn't a god.We all believe in something(textbooks,man etc.).But like me and all other Christians.We believe in the Bible and non believers believe in textbooks.Do we have proof that what the textbooks and Bible say are true? No not at all but we have faith.So before you say there isn't a "God" do more research.If you still think the same thing so be it,I have had too many blessings and miracles come my way to not think God is real.

well put...im not religious but to say there isnt a higher power is completely ignorant and close minded... the only question you need to ask to prove this is who created us?, the universe?, everything?.... and the answer is something 

Then share the Gospel, there is no "so be it" calling. If God is real, then you preach and live like he is real. If his word is real, then don't pull this "we don't have proof" thing, of course we do. It's called the holy spirit aka our conscience. Get into the word and pray man. Been doing that every day now. God has put me in some battles, and since I have been in the word and prayer, it has helped me.
Obviously we're not here to convert, we are here to help people understand who God is, and to lead them to him. We can't pull this "if you don't believe, that's fine" which it IS their decision, but we should ask what they are not understanding or liking or so on and explain it. We HAVE to be sharpening our sword and putting on the FULL armor of God.
If God is real, and Hell is the destination for many, what the HECK are we doing by saying "so be it?"

Share your testimony, preach with a GODLY heart, don't be scared of "offending" people, because Jesus did that too.

To @7GoldenOne7 the universe can't create anything. It's like a still ocean creating a cyclone, it just wont happen, it needs something to act upon it, therefor it STILL isn't creating anything. I can simply blow your mind right here: Our God is the alpha and omega, the beginning and end, he IS ETERNAL. This means that he SIMPLY EXISTED, which means time has existed as well, but what is time anyways? If you think about it, we made "time" up because in reality, all there is... is eternity. Therefor we constantly measure and study something that we can't physically see other than the numbers we assign to it and the light outside... So wait, why do people bag on Christians for believing in something they "made up" or "can't see?" We all know life cannot come from non life, the universe was created by something, but eternity existed and so did God, so then you ask... where are we in eternity? When you dive deeper and deeper into thought and prayer, you will find God, and you will marvel at his mysteries. He IS real, and he IS amazing.

you just said what i said lol i said the universe didn't come from nothing, it came from a master designer (god) aka (infinite consciousness) and yes i know time doesn't exist lol you don't have to tell me, i will never force anything on anyone, its their choice, people learn the hard way sometimes, maybe they put them selves in these situations to eventually find their faith and spirituality. 

Amazing stuff

tommy green (and the band) has been a busy man. going to different countries, and outreaches. he doesnt just sit in his room and write lyrics for our own patience. 

Wow that was terrible. Great lyrics, but terrible song. Just my opinion.

This is awesome, I love the guitar tone so much. his cleans are great also.

I liked Brook's appearance on "Blame It On The Holy Rollers" way back in the day a bit more than this. That being said, this song is really decent and I look forward to this album.

Ummm.....i really like this band but kinda dissapointed in this song....i think brooke reaves deserves a better part than what he did in this song

After waiting 4 years, i was expecting this to be way better...

dude, i feel the same way, but i really feel like its just an intro to the album, "we represent eternal life"  it just feels like they are opening an amazing album. i mean, sons of thunder was really really good. i can only imagine that this will be just as good and even heavier. ya feel?

Their 1st album was their best in my opinion

I was expecting this to be way better

How is this a letdown?! This is great. And you can totally hear brook at the end. Cant wait. Pre ordering soon!

I love it the more I listen to it. It builds and builds with the punk vocals clean vocals then BAM! Craziest breakdown they've done so far. Great mix guys

Sleeping Giant no Brasil

This isnt even Metal,it sounds like Korn with a rapper.worthless.

Great lyrical content but the song needs to grow on me

I cannot wait for this album. UABB and Sleeping giant hype!!!

So good. But you lost me with the religion bullshit. I want to listen to fucking hardcore music not a sermon.

Sleeping giant has Been doing this since 07 man they've held the same since then and they won't change.

Spiritual Warfare... Matthew 11: 12.

THIS IS GREAT! AWESOME STUFF GUYS KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK, sometimes we need some good clean vocals

TUFFEST RIFF EVERRRRRRRRRRR.

THE CROSS THE GREAT EQUALIZER

I like the mastodon-esque clean vocals, but other than that this is pretty uninspired.  run of the mill groove-djent metalcore with muddy production. 

Thanks Guys. Keep up the good work

I do not know what everyone is saying, this is AWESOME! Love you Sleeping Giant! Can't wait to see you in Houston!! 

I like how to vocalist doesn't scream. Pretty cool mix and sound overall. Different.

I did not expect this song to be this bad!

Dat breakdown doe.

kinda sounds like a -core version of Mastodon

weaaaaaaaaaaak. blame it on the holy rollers was way heavier

hey guys! they song may be different but i liked it. Sleeping giant has been my one of my favorite bands. like since I was 12. I cant wait for the new album. and just in case some of u dont know. JR and Eric are no longer in the band. they have some new members.

Disappointed.

LOVE IT!!!....great lyrical content,spirit filled,heavy...its just amazing,and let me tell you something to the haters and "old stuff sleeping giant fans" ...try to get into the studio after (i dont know) two years without playing and without two of the original members out of the band,and get the same level that sleeping giant is getting! so please i respect if you dont like the song but if you aren't going to talk any good things about this,don't write anything...

Long live sleeping giant! 😇

I really like it, but I need more guitars!!

I love sleeping giant but this was, idk. Like its a good song and all, but 30 seconds of Brook Reeves that i cant even hear? Kind of a let down. Hopefully every other song is alot heavier and stuff. And if they have more guest vocals, make it longer than 30 seconds and let us actually hear the guest vocals.

BOYCOTT CHRISTIAN METAL!!!

Songs to bland, needs more guitar, and such a random breakdown. Brooke Reeves didnt even help me enjoy this song much. Love these dudes but cmon do something new.

This is beautiful & straight out of the book of Matthew when Jesus called out the pharisees and hypocrites. So glad sleeping Giant is back(:

Not much of a guest vocals from Brook Reeves...

I was hoping to hear more of him...

Wow, this is such BS... good musicianship, but wtf.

Fuck Yeah!   Woop Woop...!!!   =-)

I came here for brooke and I was kinda bummed. Oh well im not a christian anymore so I'm not missing much. Djent dj-dj-djent djent dj-djent dj-dj-djent.

@zach phillips Hebrews 6

@SimilarGamingHD I read the comments at replies here and I I've seen this for years: Christians and atheists (and sometimes agnostics) arguing over facts and evidence-- trying to prove the bible is true. Useless. Christians aren't called to prove the bible is true or that God exists. they are merely called to believe it and accept grace. That's why we're called "believers" not "knowers".

@David Wellman David, if that is the case, then why are we to witness to others? If we aren't to speak the truth of it, how will we lead others. How can you believe something you don't know to be true?

To everyone else, I'm an Ex Atheist, so I've been there and done that. The proof literally IS all around you, don't pull your stupid cop outs on us any more, I'm sick of that lazy and dishonest crap.
To the one who was talking about sheepherders not knowing science, if you actually studied the Bible and the extra Biblical accounts, you would know that it was all direct contact with God and the Son. PS, if a method of study(science) is your be all end all, that's extremely empty because that relies on the creation of God.
God loves you, and God has an ultimate plan for us, which is why man was to write in journals and such about the accounts of God and Jesus. Jesus died on the cross, and we became the hands and feet of the Lord. God gave us the gift of the Bible, to know what we NEED to know. Miracles still happen today, people are healed physically by prayer, thousands of lives are changed, and yet Atheists and other religions turn a blind eye to it. Lives like mine who are drunks, sex addicts, suicidal, obsessed with death, filled with hatred, etc, can be turned around by God.
I'm not saying this to convert any of you, I'm just saying this because IT IS THE TRUTH my friends.
As it says in the scriptures, God will not show himself to you if you push him away. Deut 4:25-31  25After you have had children and grandchildren and have lived in the land a long time—if you then become corrupt and make any kind of idol, doing evil in the eyes of the Lord your God and arousing his anger, 26I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you this day that you will quickly perish from the land that you are crossing the Jordan to possess. You will not live there long but will certainly be destroyed. 27The Lord will scatter you among the peoples, and only a few of you will survive among the nations to which the Lord will drive you. 28There you will worship man-made gods of wood and stone, which cannot see or hear or eat or smell. 29But if from there you seek the Lord your God, you will find him if you seek him with all your heart and with all your soul. 30When you are in distress and all these things have happened to you, then in later days you will return to the Lord your God and obey him. 31For the Lord your God is a merciful God; he will not abandon or destroy you or forget the covenant with your ancestors, which he confirmed to them by oath.

@Ian Rayner PS, that scripture was just to show you that you need to SEARCH for him, not just say "show yourself" or "Ok, I'm praying but nothing is happening."

Think about anything you know and whether you actually know it, personally via your own empirical study, or is it just Received Truth. Besides that, so much as what you might accept as gospel (heh) is surrounded with weasel words: "suggest", "might have", "probably", and "believe".

great song

These lyrics hit really hard. "Crushing the legalist Agenda" dangg.

HARD AGREE

Not going to lie, a little underwhelming. Oh well, hopefully the rest of the album is sweet!

@XxMetalMartyrxX777 Well the rest of the album was insane.

lo nuevo de  Sleep Giant!. buenísimo ! <3

I feel like when Jesus comes back, after the trumpets sound this song will play.

Agreed!

Or any song by sleeping giant lol all of them are great

Kingdom Come will definitely be somewhere in the mix.

You guys were amazing.

Love the new song, keep it up SG!! Praise Jesus!!

Yes! Sleeping Giants recording has progressively got better with each album! I can't wait to hear all the other underground spiritual warfare tracks on this album XD

Umm let down much?

awesome song!

hahaaa AMAZING!
Comes to Brazil guys, please!

I Really love you Guys!!   You guys are a Bless in my life!!  May God keep Blessing you!   #Glory_To_GOD   #ForeverMore  

Amazing song and powerful lyrics, keep giving the glory to the Eternal Master, Prince of Peace and owner of the keys of hell and death, Jesus Christ and spreading the so hated, despised and even forbidden message of the gospel, amen..

Gotta say, this is unexpected.  It sounds like an Impending Doom song with Tommy Green on vocals.  To me that combo is everything I thought it would be.  Someone please freeze me until this album comes out.

This sounds absolutely nothing like Impending Doom.

@smokejc I think so, not early like nail or serpent.  without tommy's voice though, just the music.  anyway, i'm excited for the album for sure.

Yeah impending doom is way heavier than this

Awesome guys

This song gave me goose bumps!!!!!!! It was that good.

Amazing! Glory to God \o/
Come along to Brazil! :D

A hug of brothers from Brazil! God bless.

Great song!!!...

yeah!!! germany like this !!

i just died inside. or came to life idk which one haha! this song is so amazing!

This is a pretty massive letdown. Can't even hear Brooke at the end.

Are you serious? This song is great! Its just a preview from how gr8 this album is gonna be!

Song is mediocre at best. Vocals are lazy, instruments are boring. 

Almost all the songs on this album sound the same. It's kinda a let down. I was expecting so much more):

They signed with a new record company.it's not Facedown records

They've signed with 2 diff record companies since facedown u gotta consider to they lost Eric

Wow... amazing and anointed.

YES! Simply amazing.

Just as hard as the rock. SO good.

Jesus!!! This song is AWESOME

GIVE US MORE!!!

OHHHHHH, brutal
