Matt comments: "“Mosaic” is one of my personal favorite Theocracy tracks of all time. At its heart it’s a throwback to the peak of power metal, a galloping and soaring singalong hymn. But it has everything I love about what we do: the melody, the power, the drama, the light and shade, the riffs. Conceptually, the song is about how we can only see the individual scenes of our lives, but lack the perspective to see the overall tapestry those scenes eventually combine to create. The good times, the bad times, the things we wish didn’t happen…they are all pieces that God uses to form whatever we eventually end up becoming. And we can certainly relate to that in our own journey as a band over the last few years. So there’s a little psychology, a lot of spirituality, a little nostalgia, and a healthy dose of wistfulness and wonder. And fittingly, this song takes you on a quite journey in just over five minutes."

Lyrics:
The Artisan designs
In a secret place
Moves with grace
Shifting seasons mark the time
As it comes and goes
With the wind that blows
And after all, the pieces fall
Landing where they may
You never left or chose to throw them all away
An unknown future, broken past
Like imperfect panes of glass
A window into the darkness
Picture perfect on the wall
I’m a step behind
Lost in time
My perspective ever flawed
Phantom imagery
Sensory
And after all, the pieces fall
Landing where they may
You never left or chose to throw them all away
An unknown future, broken past
Like imperfect panes of glass
Taking shape into something more
What a wonder, fireborn and unforsaken
Piece by broken piece to form
Unveiling this grand mosaic
Compositing the story of a life
Tonight
We are mosaic
Partial pages, scattered scenes
Nothing on their own
The great unknown
Blurry pictures on the screen
Focus pull unto
The master view
‘Cause after all, the pieces fall
Landing where they may
You never left or chose to throw us all away
An unknown future, broken past
Like imperfect panes of glass
Revealing the larger grand design
What a wonder, fireborn and unforsaken
Piece by broken piece to form
Unveiling this grand mosaic
Compositing the story of a life
Tonight
We are mosaic
(solo: Taylor)
Gallery, artistry
Mystery, great adventure
Mastery, harmony
History to remember
Like perspective of a woven tapestry
Shifting from the side we see
What a wonder, fireborn and unforsaken
Piece by broken piece to form
Unveiling this grand mosaic
Compositing the story of a life
Tonight
We are mosaic

GOD IS GOOD! 🙏
All the time!
Praise Jesus, keep rockin' on the Rock! Amazing song!
Being a Christian and a metal head has been a tough road for me, but you guys have always been there to help me along the way. Your music puts the fire in my ears and raises the hair on my neck. Thank you for shredding and praising our Lord!!!
God has truly blessed us.
You guys should check out Wytch Hazel , brilliant Christian metal band
True bro, when I hear them I get goosebumps too. It's difficult to find bands like this, although they have a Christian theme, there is a question of testimony. If you know good bands, give us a tip here. Peace!
Just in case you'd find it interesting, I've linked below some metal/hard rock versions of Finnish Christian hymns. I don't know if there are English translations anywhere, but I think they sound good, though I have the advantage of knowing the lyrics too.

As a fierce atheist, I can still appreciate the efforts this band put in crafting solid,well written, catchy songs.
🔥🔥Theocracy is the most underrated Christian Metal band according to many of us fans . They deserve a lot more and big .. Talent and elements in their songs are immense.. the mainline bands dont even come close 🔥
"most underrated Christian Metal band"
Make that the most underrated band period!
When one has learned to master Bach's "counterpoint" and apply that to metal ..
Who else does that?
Name one please?
@@fooser77 world doesnt revolve around your feelings.. nor it revolves around mine, i feel something and you feel something we can keep it that way
Melodic / speed/ power = Complete band
I came here from Angra and found this great band... So amazing!!!
Glory be to God! So glad you guys have a new Anointed album from our Father to combat against the forces of darkness and to set the captives free! Thanks for posting again your new single
Awesome!!!
Is it really combatting though or is it just Christian undertones? I cant say I remember what the lyrics were about after listening.
With Mirror of Souls and I Am or Sinner I know exactly where they come from but with the last album I started to wonder. Will listen to it more and hope I'm wrong.
Might be their best ever. What a wonderful picture of how our Creator puts us together time and time again when we are broken.
An imaginary being did not create you, sir.
Tell HIM when you meet HIM
Taylor has been killing it on the solos for the new album so far. Definitely a good call on Matt's part.
Dude, you gotta check out Paladin (his OG band) if you wanna see him rip it up, vocally as well. Here's your first taste th-cam.com/video/RIWmfpRnrLE/w-d-xo.html
Taylor is AMAZING
Killer!!!
Such a breath of fresh air for the band! You can tell they let him influence the songwriting process. There are awesome riffs, licks, and solos all over this album. You can tell based off his work in Paladin they incorporated him in the songwriting process. Great decision. He’d also nail backup vocals! This is what Christian metal needed!
Just now discovering these guys not sure how long they've been around I absolutely love these guys
This song grabbed me right away. Matt Smith stated that this is one of his favorite songs he's ever written. I agree! This one should be a concert favorite for years to come.
Good stuff!!!
THIS IS AWESOME!! God is good.
Big and powerful sound !!
Brazil 🇧🇷
Theocracy *always* deliver! I've been listening to the track all morning on Spotify and it's everything I could've hoped 😀
Absoluterly loving this. An uncertain future and a broken past, yet God has plans of good and hope for all of our lives.
For I know the plans that I have for you, says the Lord, plans for peace and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11
God bless you guys and everyone reading this. Keep fighting until we all reach the goal: the arms of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
I've been saying for YEARS that I would stand Theocracy up against the mighty DragonForce ANY day of the week on ANY stage! This fabulous second single, title track from the forthcoming album, only serves to fortify and prove my point brilliantly!
I’ve been listening to them both since I was 12 and yes they are head and head for me my faves!!! Amazing I love them and Dragonforce In fact, I’m going to see DragonForce featuring Emerance next month, but if theocracy went on tour, I would get tickets immediately! I wish so bad I could see them.
I pre-ordered as soon as this album was announced, before I heard a single note. The singles confirm I made the right choice.
Loving the addition of Taylor Washington to the band! He's a monster player and I'm a big fan of Paladin as well. \m/ \m/
I've just checked Paladin out, never heard of them. They rock!
I agree!! I heard Paladin for the 1st time when they opened up for Unleash the Archers a couple years ago and was immediately blown away by Taylor's voice and his awesome riffs and guitar playing. Instant fan of theirs and I'm also a longtime fan of Theocracy👍
Absolutely brilliant!
Musicão!!!
God bless all you. Greeting from Brazil!
Love Matt and the guys so much. Music is so good.
Absolutely EPIC!
This band is so good 👍 Jesus bless you all
Good stuff!!!
Theocracy Surpasses the technical composing of Symphony X, Dream Theater, and Nightwish, And writes Lyrics into a message that gives Life, Hope and Peace. Best band out there by far. Praise God!
Bold statement, but I can’t say I disagree.
Dispite they're really good and I love their work, they're not even close to symphony x or DT's technicality
Yeah sorry man they are a good band but let's not jump the gun here, they don't come anywhere near symphony x or nightwish.
It's not a competition...Each band you mentioned are excellent! I thank God for the internet.. great music is a lot easier to find...What a great day to be alive! 😁
Sorry man Not even close
Happy 20 Theocracy 😊
Perfection. It references Art that has existed thorough the ages. It also makes indirect remarks to his own Music. The Progressive elements make it extremely exquisite. Mind enlightening.
Uma das bandas q mais gosto.. Theocracy é show demais 🤘
YES!!!! Finally, good to have you back guys, you were sincerely missed!!!!
Great work guys
Just release the album already! Seriously, these two singles you have released are absolute bangers. So excited for the album release!
Hallelujah! 🤯
Beatiful and powerfull
Theocracy never disappoints. Another great song!
Another great song. Love the abruptness of the tempo change and the heaviness of the sound. I preordered the CD and can't wait to get it.
This is a great song. Has all the hooks we could want, yet also has progressive depth.
Good stuff!!!
Well done gentlemen.
All Glory to GOD in the highest!
Amen!!!
Always❤
Meus amigos, que parte musical perfeita!!✝️🎸🇧🇷
falou tudo
@@heydad646 essa pegada galopante.. show🙌
Parece que um dos sentidos é que o Criador tem um propósito em todo o mosaico de nossas vidas.
YAS!! I come here every now and then checking to see if you have anything new, imagine my surprise finding 2 new songs!!!!
Que bom que voltaram! 🇧🇷👊
Ernie, you are killing it!!! Love the song and the video is amazing!!!
Awesome song and awesome video!
So, So Good. Just Found Ya'll. My Playlists Just Got Real Busy!
Rcok on!!
WOW, another insanely awesome track
This is gonna be the best album of the year, no doubt.
록 팬이자 크리스찬으로서, 이렇게 훌륭한 멜로디와 가사로 이루어진 찬양을 들을수 있게 해준 맷 스미스와 Theocracy에게 감사를 표합니다.
It is great to have them back!!
Agreed!
Absolutely love the new song! Mosaic is 🔥 🤘😎🔥😎🤘
The Lord has truly blessed you with a powerful voice!
Nice groove, this new album is going to kick it and kick it hard.
The best band! We were waiting for this moment
This band is perfect, As The World Bleeds and Ghost Ship were my favorite 2011 and 2016 albums, and with this 2 singles, there's a big posibility to make Mosaic the best album of 2023 too!!
Can't wait to hear the whole album.
Wonderful! Glory to the King of the kings, our Savior, Jesus, from Brazil!
Love the band return and epic song!! This song must be viral
Good stuff!!!
absolute fire. wonderful. stunning. leaves you in tears. Praise God.
I knew this one was going to turn into a banger.. such a cool riff. I'm digging this new stuff so far. can't wait to get my vinyl.

Melodias bem construídas, harmoniosas, tudo encaixado perfeitamente.

Worth every minute of every year of wait. You're se incredibly talented, and your music is so edifying, it's like hearing the angles sing about the magesty of God, it's like heavenly poetry. Next time you're in Mexico I'll definitely be there!
Good stuff!!!
