We're ending the month right with a solid new single from the guys of Arcadia! This time around, we're dropping the official audio and lyric video of their song "Lockdown" and goddamn did the band go hard on this one! Check it out below!
Arcadia first gave fans a preview of this song when they performed it live on Tower Sessions back in season 4, but now we're unleashing the studio version that the band's been cooking up with engineer Symoun Durias and mixing engineer Macoy Manuel.
The band's latest lineup includes founding members Ariel Lumanlan and Ian De Guzman, and is going strong with vocalist Enrie Estevez, guitarist Rommel Enriquez, and bassist Keith Francisco.

Arcadia - Lockdown Lyrics
One by one,
Fist by fist,
Bone by bone,
And brick by brick.
For so long we have been deceived,
By propaganda & free expression!
Armed with nothing but self destruction
A lone voice, often coming from the oppressed
And the weak as a threat!
For so long we just couldn't breath.
Empty words you say again and again,
Promises that are meant to be broken.
We are lost. At a loss!
Bite the bullet and return to the fold.
This silence isn't just a dream. (World lockdown)
Pushing our way out! (World lockdown)
And soon we'll be set free. (World lockdown)
This is an area lockdown!
World lockdown!
Self proclaimed and your struggle for power.
This is not how it should be!
Your malice,
Your hatred and prejudice,
In this land of sorrow
Country of blood and ashes.
Your sins like bullets riddling the streets
with blood of the innocents!
We are the greater few,
Our blood and tears
will not be in vain!
How long does it take?
How long should we wait?
How long... must we stay blind?
Empty words you say again and again,
Promises that are meant to be broken.
We are lost. At a loss!
Bite the bullet and return to the fold.
This silence isn't just a dream. (World lockdown)
Pushing our way out! (World lockdown)
And soon we'll be set free. (World lockdown)
This is an area lockdown!
World lockdown!
Deep down we're choking
And filled with disgust.
Inch by inch; drop by drop
of our blood.
We lost our voice!
We lost our voice!
We lost our voice
In this never ending tragedy,
Bathed in blood
In this horrible nation!
