Distant Emperor - "Return to Freedom" | Dystopian Rock Music Video 2023

'Return to Freedom’ by Distant Emperor is a dystopian rock wake-up with heavy rock riffs, progressive sweep, and 80s synth echoes.

Distant Emperor’s ‘Return to Freedom’ rolls out of Brisbane with poignant synth tones coupled and heavy rock riffs. Distant Emperor stirs a storm with trees weeping, birds falling out of the sky and an invisible force shifts the ground beneath us. The music video pulls no punches: it’s a cry to stand, to fight, to reclaim something vital. Where do you land?

Lyrics / Timestamps
00:00:38 We see the trees are crying
00:00:44 We hear the birds are dying
00:00:50 and everything comes crashing down
00:00:56 to become a ghost town
00:01:04 crying
00:01:11 dying
00:01:17 crashing
00:01:26 down ...
00:01:41 Prophets of fate have gathered, narrate the scripture decree
00:01:49 anointed by the Protector, lend an ear or bend the knee
00:01:55 Between us, beneath us and within
00:02:04 Mother Earth unleashes Her fury, hitherto, hereafter, today
00:02:12 an invisible invader, that carries our breath away
00:02:18 Between us, beneath us and within
00:02:43 What's the cost of this madness?
00:02:46 Can we ever really know?
00:02:50 Propelled by constant confusion, with a moral afterglow
00:02:56 Between us, beneath us and within
00:03:07 Fly away! No, we can't fly away we have to stay
00:03:20 Return to freedom, Where else is there to go?
