“If you're like us, calling all riders,
Roll up beside us, no place to hide us,
All freedom fighters, let's unite us,
Switch on your nitrous, and..let's..go”
This verse is calling out Christians (the riders) and that we shouldn’t be afraid of our Faith in Jesus (no place to hide us). The Freedom Fighters are Christians, fighting to save the world from eternal damnation
”Destination, for navigation,
Man up ya stations, feel the sensation,
Surround invasion, with communication,
Move quick, we might, avoid contamination”
Here Trevor is saying telling us to lead people to Christ (destination for navigation). If we communicate the Gospels we are attacking the invasion, however, we need to act fast other wise we will be infected with the secular world.
”Down, here comes the sound,
Everyone pound, your feet, to this phenomenon,
Now, let's make it loud,
Let's show 'em all how, you move to this phenomenon
Roll! Open you soul, maybe lose control,
inside of this phenomenon,
Just, let yourself go,
and let everyone know,
you move to this phenomenon“
Don’t be afraid of your faith, stand up, let people know what you believe, make some sound while you are at it.
”Don't let these spiders, crawl up beside us,
They want to bite us, and inject the virus
Raise up your lighters, praise to the righteous,
We need you to guide us,
get..prepared..to..go
If you're like us, calling all riders,
All freedom fighters, let's unite us,
Switch on your nitrous, and..let's..go”
The spiders are Satan and his demons and temptations, and want to draw us away from our cause. Stand up for your faith and unite.
“Can't take it anymore,
Shake until we move the floor,
What are we waiting for?
Let's go!
I'm tired of bein' ordinary,
Don't care if there's people staring,
I'll rely on Your strength to carry me on
I'm not invisible like you,
next time things get a little messed up,
I'll shine, but I'll never be see through,
I'm fine, just tryin' to wake the rest up”
Here, Trevor is asking, WHAT are we waiting for, he’s tired of being ordinary (blending in with the world) and doesn’t mind if people look at him strange because of his faith in Jesus and will rely on Him (God) to carry him (Trevor) through troubled times; he also says he won’t be invisible like some Christians (I like to call them pseudo-Christians/poser Christians) and is fine trying to get people to believe the Gospel Message.
That or I am reading too far into a really good song.
@The HP Freedom fighters tend to be against oppression and large institutions, such as the church. I can't agree at all that freedom fighters are trying to save the world from damnation (at least not through the methods generally deployed, which is through fear ... again the opposite of what a freedom fighter stands for).

"Infected with the secular world" ... so your faith is that insecure? Or is it saying that being good for sake of humanity will appeal to you more than the fearing the wrath of God?

Considering that Christianity is still the majority and mainstream in the USA, makes your interpretation of the last paragraph nonsensical. Furthermore it has been the Church and religions that preach exclusion (as your previous comments illustrated) and also about following, that is not standing out. Those that have stood out in history have been traditionally silenced or exiled.

@The HP I think you reading too much into it ... sounds more like a catchy stadium rock hit they've written about themselves more so than their faith.
