Lyrics:
Cultivation across the nation
For all to enjoy
Communities such rarities
Spread across the globe
Transformation across the nation
For all to enjoy…
Faster living has caused this menace of
Brutal wrath appropriations
Faster living has caused this menace of
Brutal wrath appropriations
Imagination and creation
Observation inspiration
Fighting frustration
Resignation provocation segregation
Imagination and creation
For all to enjoy….
Faster living has caused this menace of
Brutal wrath appropriations
Faster living has caused this menace of
Brutal wrath appropriations
Faster living has caused this menace of
Brutal wrath appropriations
Faster living has caused this menace of
Brutal wrath appropriations
Man I've been on a Serj and SOAD kick since that Last Meals a couple days ago, then this drops? Amazing.
What last meals thing a couple days ago?
@@nipun108 Look up Mythical Kitchen. They have a series where they interview celebrities while eating what the celebrity would choose as their "Last Meal". Serj is the latest episode.
@@nipun108serj was on the mythical kitchen's series "Last Meals" the other day
@@nipun108look up Serj Tankian Last Meal on mythical kitchen. Great conversation.
@WanderingWriter and it was a fantastic interview 💯🤙
Serj really has one of the most distinctive voices in the business. Love it.
was once
@@dron5580 still is. nobody really sounds like him
@@majicktek5051 During the system he sounded good. Now he sounds like a goat.
@@dron5580 false he sounds great here!
@@dron5580 in your opinion and you seem to be in the minority. Or perhaps you meant a G.O.A.T.?
No one is talking about the aesthetics? Beautiful video, the lighting is amazing and Serj looks in a trance (as he is often when he sings). Man, that baritone tone is insane.
People from across the nation
Are listening to this song on the radio station
It even reaches the space station
Where an astronaut is stuck with constipation
But with focus and concentration
He finally finds some elevation
Now he's floating, defying gravitation
Celebrating his space exploration
I think everyone at some point has written a "-ation" song
Even on vacation @@chrispysaid
Can we get an explanation?
@@femali Possibly sedation?
I had no preparation
For this creation
There's no deviation
From my relaxation
I enjoy my liberation
From mental taxation
Hello From Armenia❤
Saludos desde Chile 😊
pozdrowienia z Polski Wroclove ❤
Hiii!!! From Brazil!
Привет из России 😊
From morocco
Слушаю вас с 2001 года в восторге от вашего голоса и подачи, после SOAD интересно было наблюдать ваш сольный путь. Очень смело и эксперементально, но мне это нравится!) Спасибо за ваши труды и привет из России
When your English teacher asks you to write a list of words ending in "ation".
😂
And Stevie says
Dissipation
Of race relations
Consolation
Segregation
Dispensation
Isolation
Exploitation
Mutilation
Mutation
Miscreation
Confirmation to the evils of the world
Where dem RHCP fans and their Californication then
Procreation, radio station 😂🎉
You won the internet today Sir. Great comment! 😂
Can’t wait! I’ve loved Serj’s voice and lyrics since I was a teen and now I’m almost 40 ❤
Same here and I'll be 41 soon. He's a Metal icon
Youre profile name reminds me of RATM😂
😂 same situation
@ThatMetalGuy1983 yea he seems to FORGET THAT AND HIS TRUE FANS
37 year old millennial here. I'm there with you 🤘
Someone should sign this guy, he's got a lot of potential.
I feel like he'd only bring the system down.....
😮
aspartame kills
Genocidal humanoidz don’t want him to succeed
😅😂😂 serj started in the 90s
Love from BRAZILLLLLLL
🤟
🇧🇷
🤘🏽
LOVE THIS SONG!!! for me it sounds nostalgic like Elect the Dead eras
Kasane Teto spotted in the comments?
Yeah! His whole new EP gives those vibes.
One of the greatest vocal talents my ears will ever hear AND STILL making incredible music! Thanks Serj ❤
So happy to see serj still making music 🫂
Cant say the same for the other band mates
Serjs voice captivates me every time
Captivation
@@satanicgecko902 ✨
I could listen to Serj sing anything. Love this guy!
He could literally sing the Denny's menu and gain fans.
You are listening to just anything. This is shit.
Thank you for supplying my life with songs I love that have shaped me through the years. Please don't stop.
unbeliveable that this song is second to last in terms of number of plays on spotify in foundations. its such a good song
This guy should definitely start a band. It would be so cool.
A beautiful voice that no one can replace
please never stop making music
Serj’s voice takes me back to 98’ 🔥
Serj's cultivation arc begins
Appropriations, cartoon buyer and life’s revengful son all these great hits.
I love your music Serj! Your lyrics are always so inspirational and thought provoking. Keep pursuing your passion 🫶
Edit: The video was awesome! Loved the visuals!
I'm so glad I could catch the premiere of this before I start work
I’m the opposite. I caught this an hour after releasing as I got done work 😅
Шикарный Серж!!!!
never stop creating man
Simplesmente o Maior!! 🤘
Vem pro Brasil, Serj. Faz um show aqui pra nós!! 🤘
Brasil ❤
Браво, Серж! Как всегда, гениально! Спасибо за Ваше творчество!
Serj, you're still a lyrical genius & so vocally gifted ❤
Watching all the interviews he's done recently makes me appreciate this more. Serj seems like a really amazing person and I love his message. SOAD got me through high school, soI love that he kept going.
saw it on last meals. wasnt expecting a badass new song drop. my man. the beautiful voice.
I have loved SOAD, Serj's solo albums, as well, and I am still in awe with this new song, as if I was not aware what a people conscious poet he is. In the recent video of Last Meals, I was happy to hear him in a longer conversation, and their host with a political science background was able to bring out such nice depths in thinking. The phrase "brutal wealth appropriation" resonates in a way that is not kind to explain, but I can mention that it's both personally and externally (why I am afraid to say "globally") affecting. I am so grateful to be able to follow such perspective and empathy.
Your joy, gives me joy. Thank you for being here.
обожаю вокал Сержа
Он красавчик
waiting for you show solo on Brazil Serj, we love u
tem data ou voce ta pedindo?
@@bryannunesbarrios6022 ele ta mandando
Brasil tá em todo canto não tem jeito
@@bryannunesbarrios6022 estou pedindo, hehehe
@serjtankian COME TO BRAZIL, lets make it happen!
One of the best metal vocalists of all time. Just hope we get more Serj music soon!
I thought he couldn't sing anymore and this drops? Sign me in
Whoa! Hey Serj, you rock! We don't need a band with "Ego and bullshit", we just need Serj and your amazing voice and music!
Beautiful video and exciting blend of hard rock and Armenian folk. Feels like the good old days again.
With the exception of Shavo's new bands second single, the SOAD boys are just dropping really quality songs right now.......
Serj Tankian's solo recordings are extremely overlooked and underrated and they deserve the same crredit as his recordings with System Of A Down.
Serj Tankian rocks.🤘🤘
Its good and unique. I will still listen to SOAD. You are an amazing vocalist.
Such great EP, as usual, Serj never disappoints me.
Siempre es bueno tener más del señor Tankian. Gracias.
Bro thats the second song so early after the first one!! Love you serj
Hola desde Costa Rica! Es increíble que cada canción que lanza Serj es un éxito y a su vez deja un gran mensaje, master! 🇨🇷❤
Damn! This is SOOO GOOD! I love your songs Serj!
why You Lie is not a good song
This was amazing. I love you Serj tankian and SOAD!!! ❤🇦🇲
Am I the only one who notice Shavo on 2:40? :D
Please make a SOAD album. This sounds like what would be a 2024 SOAD album. Just do it - PLEASE.
[Вступление]
Культивирование по всей стране
Для всеобщего удовольствия
Такие редкие сообщества
Распространены по всему миру
Преобразование по всей стране
Для всеобщего удовольствия

Более быстрая жизнь вызвала эту угрозу
Жестокого присвоения богатства
Более быстрая жизнь вызвала эту угрозу
Жестокого присвоения богатства
[Куплет]
Воображение и творчество
Наблюдение, вдохновение
Борьба с разочарованием
Смирение, провокация, сегрегация
Воображение и творчество
Для всеобщего удовольствия
[Припев]
Более быстрая жизнь вызвала эту угрозу
Жестокого присвоения богатства
Более быстрая жизнь вызвала эту угрозу Жестокого
присвоения богатства Более быстрая жизнь вызвала эту угрозу Жестокого присвоения богатства Более быстрая жизнь вызвала эту угрозу Жестокого присвоения богатства Более быстрая жизнь вызвала эту угрозу Жестокого присвоения богатства
Thank you Serj for such a wonderful masterpiation! 🙏🏻
One more great lyrics, thanks Serj for your art!
I thought I was losing my eyesight but then I realized it was the video
aas vezes tenho impressão que o serj tk fica de zueira observando os fãs, pegando as ideias da galera e transformando em música.. tu é ocara serj.. inteligente pra caralho.. puder me dar uns royalties de leve.. hahahahah
This shows how importance vocalists are to a band. People have wanted SOAD albums, when Serj has a bunch of Solo albums that for me scratch that itch.
Another musical journey with Serj 😎👍
"Faster living has caused this menace of
Brutal wealth appropriations"
This song is really nice! I think is from elasticity time or peplex cities
Еееее, Сержик!✨✨✨
Why do I see will ferrel so much in him I can’t unsee it😂
A haunting track that still rocks ❤️🔥🤘
Always knew Serj would come through for us in the worlds time of need. Peace to the world 🌎 🕊
He's like reading a poem for us.. he's so unique in singing.
Dulu2 buat begini supaya mudah tengok semua. Ada idea lain. Tapi dengan kanak2 makan masa. Bila semua tengok mereka akan buat. Kalau suruh sahaja jadi lain. Kena demonstrasi. Bila semua menjadi mereka lagi seronok. Sampai yang mula2 kata demam pun tak boleh duduk diam sebab nak ikut juga.
apa kau merepek
I know the odds of Serj actually seeing this are 1000000/1, but you created a freedom fighter and truth seeker from the age of 10. Tankian is my fucking hero, dude.
Man, this EP is the best thing I've heard since 2010's Imperfect Harmonies. I've been listening to this EP on repeat nonstop 8 hrs a day for the last few weeks. Thank you.
What are you
Thank you thank you Serj - as a mixed race woman INFJ kind - your music has always brought connection and a deep sense of gratitude to my soul
I can't help but imagine how would it be if Serj goes Tool.
Just for one album. Make me happy, Serj, please.
The posted lyrics in the description way "Brutal wrath appropriations" but he's clearly saying "Brutal wealth appropriations" no? Also, "wealth" makes more sense in the context of what he's singing about
This EP is the best thing since Gate 21 Rock Remix.
🥹I'M BLESSED
I could listen to Serj all night 🌙
I love how the track starts softly and then that guitar hit ❤ I already know what will be on “repeat” all the time for the next few days.
The riffs are so good, everything feels so original.
I like how he won't work with SOAD because he wants to expand his horizons, then makes a SOAD song.
How is this the Banana Terracotta Pie guy? I love it all.
The man, the myth, the legend.... 🙏🙏🙏🙏💪💪💪💪
Serj being just as amazing!! ❤
This is excellent, why wouldn't you record this with SOAD and make the masses happy. We have been waiting for years.

Your voice is a gift from the universe.

Thank you so much Serj ❤️
Yes!
🇧🇷 🇵🇹 ♥️
This man becomes more beautiful and perfect with each passing day ❤🇧🇷
CARACAAAA O HOME NAO PARAAA
Beautiful. Just absolutely beautiful.
Fuck yes. Nailed it. Serj has such a majestic voice 🖤🖤🖤
Thank-you for your attempts on getting people to open their eyes. I have been your fan for years. And I appriciate you! I wish I could meet your one day. It's definately an upper wish of mine !
Serj trás uma sensibilidade estronda pra música! Com uma voz potente. Todos os discos são bons.
This is what an art suppose to feel like
He keeps on getting better as he gets older
You plus Hideo Kojima would be magical
Thank you Serj. Whem music meets great lyrics is just amazing ❤
When i hear his voice i instantly know it's the man with the goatee and curly hair, wich can perform like actual singing but also make it sounds like he's talking to you wich is real talent.
the opening riff reminded me of saving us!
awesome
I need hydration,
But my drink's got condensation,
Leavin' me with frustration,
'Cause it’s headin’ for evaporation.
I'm feelin' hesitation,
As I wait in anticipation,
For a sip that's pure salvation,
But all I get’s dehydration.
all in the circle and circles around it... spin spin spinning around round round spinning around 🌐🪐🌪
Awesome song and the video is simple and powerful and an unusual format. Cool.
Great EP, keep up the good work
