Killing Joke - Walking With Gods Lyrics

One of the greatest songs ever.

I think it is physically impossible to sit still to this track!

I'm native American and this speak s to me.

Fight by day, fuck by night
Prepare to die at anytime
Enemy smash me down
Sill come back for more each round

Salvation's not just a pill to escape but your skill
Fight on, fight on, 'til death intervenes

Against all odds
Overcome all logic, reason
Walking with gods
Feeling high 'cause I've entered Eden

Tribal mentality, our reality
Not held back by hypocrites' morality
Don't underestimate our resolve
Each and every dog has their day

Salvation's not just a pill to escape but your skill
Fight on, fight on, 'til death intervenes

Against all odds
Overcome all logic, reason
Walking with gods
Feeling high 'cause I've entered EdenJog harder
Push yourself beyond the limits of human endurance

Outnumbered we are few
Tasted blood, now come for you
You, the hour; you, the place
You, our destiny; we embrace

Salvation's not just a pill to escape but your skill
Fight on, fight on, 'til death intervenes

Against all odds
Overcome all logic, reason
Walking with gods
Feeling high 'cause I've entered Eden

F**k yea who is listening in 2018 I know I am!!!

Not me, I'm listening in 2019, and will still be listening in 2050.
My son will take it from there.

This is breathtaking...

Fucking love this. Reminds me of The Omen theme in many ways and also Logan's Run tv series in places.

That's just the musical side.

Lyrically they are just awesome.

Only discovered their sound 3rd June 2018 even though I've been aware of their existence for decades.

beatsy!

why is this in MONO

WHEN MUSIC IS IN THE BLOOD, YOU CAN NEVER GIVE UP.

RED BEAT WERE THERE FROM THE START - https://www.roughtrade.com/gb/music/change-and-phoenix

ONE PROLIFIC BACK CATALOGUE. ALWAYS ONE STEP AHEAD.

I don't recall this track. A Special Release?

hypnotic...

Fight by day, fuck by night Prepare to die at anytime Enemy smash me down I still come back for more each round!!!!!!!!!!

Killing joke is a legend,God is real.

Bullshit. God is bullshit.Bronze aged fairy tails for scared children.

Jaz's midlife crisis song - inspirational!

God is a Legend.Killing Joke is Real !!

derpokerlude but Jaz is a legend. does that mean Jaz is God ?

Un Fucking Believable

lots of synth in here ... just like the good ole days ....

yeah, i did ... so what ?

@Lionel Richards I'm saying if you want real synth, then give The Stranglers a listen, though their earlier albums, (Rattus Norvegicus, No More Heroes, BLack and White, etc.)

@Pat Moon I meant that early Killing Joke had more pronounced synth ... as this latest track seems to have ... I like ALL synth bands and sounds ...

the raven is there best synth album but joke use synth in a much darker dance format stranglers is different music mate!

joke were the first dark punk band to use synth like a bass!

tremendo

Music made by Cro-Magnon man, just brilliant thumping rythms.

AWESOME!!!!

Indeed!

Something makes me to speed up when I listen that song in the car

This song is incredibly tribal in it's beat. It also is a great battle song.

"Push yourself beyond the limits of human endurance!"ta tara ta, ta tara ta, ta tara ta!!!!!!!!!!! really makes me feel like excelling at whatever I am doing
! 

Quoting bubble-bath Pseudophilosophical boulderdashism . . . bored - eh

1.54 in it comes and the volume goes bonkers!

this is one of those tracks that once i start listening to it, thats it , its on for the night..just EPIC!

what if that is the reality that calls to them

objectivity is subjectivity, the moment you have a opinion you are subjective . . .

Bollocks.

"Fight by day, f*ck by night...."

We are the animal, looking up to and finding comfort in the ones who don't exist.

This track has been a trip to unknown lands, every time I listen to it...

Hearing this in my car untangles my brain from work crap
It's an anthem

Heh. I take Coleman with a grain of salt. He likes the shaman role quite a bit. He reminds me of the German artist Joseph Beuys in many ways.

who needs trance when you have this belter tune

I like this band, Killing Joke!!! Cosita, Cosita, Cosita, Seria!!!! Atercipelados

Why this was is in the suggested videos I don't not know why, and I do not care. It's the best thing I've ever inadvertently subjected myself too.

who is they? the reverend jaz coleman?

Love this song. It's like an out-of-control locomotive.

the guitar riff is really obsessive.

This is the greatest truth I've ever read.
Was the first thing that hooked me on this song.

the Greatest tune I've heard till now

looks like tzeench to me

We are very lucky to still have Killing Joke around....one of, if not thee best industrial/metal acts around.

Not forgetting, Philosophers , an Ark of our Culture. The enshrinement of Individualism and Strife for Freedom.Chasing the Logos, holding high the Flame of Liberty. Our time has still not yet come.

"saying a song gives you "heart attack" is an odd word choice for elation"

Usually...but it's "Walking with Gods"!!! LOL

look...It's apparent that we are both huge KJ fans so I say RIP to Raven and peace to you.

Take this literally..let people speak in their own defence if they feel the need to..saying a song gives you "heart attack" is an odd word choice for elation...as a long time KJ gatherer I was in tears when news came through of Ravens death and it a bemusing comment to make on this track considering Raven played bass on it

Not really, because when you tell someone that they used the "wrong choice of words" I think most would interpret it literally, and thus I came to his defense, as they were only speaking respectfully of such an immense tune as "Walking with Gods'. No need for the 'take heed' bit, as I was never the jumping bean here.

I am sure my use of "my friend" and the exclamation mark at the end of my comment was more than enough for you and anyone else to realise I was not being "literal" and that it is just a reflection on a sad situation with Raven's heart problem.

But hey, thanks for the comment on chilling out....take heed.

Why was this a wrong choice of words?? He was obviously not being literal and I am sure meant no disrespect to Raven. Chill out!

@tomahawkbungle Wrong choice of words there my friend....do not forget Raven's death rest his soul!

How could I have not heard this song before? FUCK!!

Fight By Day Fuck By Night

still got the funk! Good to know!

fuck religion

Incredible song!

religion = war...cheers from canada

whaiting years for this supremacy of sound

o crepusculo chama os instintos basicos do ser humano para o renascimento

@CrabTastingMan Either that or maybe it is religious. Maybe the people who call themselves religious are just a bunch of retards.

@macaroon44 Not sure if that's true about Geordie, but KJ have one of the best catalogues of songs of any band in the rock era and it would be nice if they broke out of the rut of playing the same few songs live over and over and played other great numbers like this one. I do know that Jaz struggled singing songs from this album live.

@jackkoffin1don't mean to offend you mate but geordie refuses to play any track of this album again.it simply does'nt cut the mustard .their new album shows progress tho' have a nice day

Again, an ugly song, but so beautiful. This album was so much better than the 2003 self-titled album.

the 2003 album is also great. Implant, death and resurrection show, Invocation, asteroid,...

The song reminds me a bit 'Temption' by New Order.

Fight by day, fuck by night prepare to die at anytime
Enemy smash me down i still come back for more each round
Salvation's not just a pill to escape but your skill fight on fight on until death intervenes Against all odds overcome all logic, reason walking with gods,feeling high, 'cos i've entered eden.
Tribal mentality, our reality not held back by hypocrites morality don't underestimate our resolve each and every dog has his day- just others push yourSelf limits of human endurance

@xelasoma like you said, religion may not be the primary focus of faults, but contrary to what you said, science cannot be faulted either. Without understanding the mechanics, many believe in things untrue just cuz some bogus scientist in a white labcoat purports its true, or most often, the media distorts scientific discoveries, and people do no get a chance to know what science really meant. But why religion fails vs science is that its so often inconsistent in its "teachings."

@CrabTastingMan I think they try to separate fabricated faith, served from the churches and the goverments, from true faith, which is a way of reaching true spiritual health: "Salvation's not just a pill to escape but your skill fight on fight on until death intervenes". After all, true spiritual faith kills the fear of Death.

Great song!

Fucking bad-ass!

@jzelol Cheers Bud, yep Sept is better for me anyway. Gotta travel up from Cornwall . Shame the album is postponed as well. You just know its gonna be worth the wait!!

I always love it when they expose the folly of the religious. Just heed the lyrics , the truth! and the truth will set you free, from the shackles of superstitious fallacies! :D

April 16th will be joyfull as is this song!

There's a new album coming up in April. Title so far as I know: Feast of Fools. All hail the mighty Joke, can't wait 'til the Cologne gathering!!!

I can listen to this track over and over. It reminds me of those KJ gig days on the Millenium and Pandemonium tours when Jaz would put you in a trance for four hours.
