"Live Like An Angel Die Like A Devil" is the title (and central lyric) of a Venom song from the 1981 album Welcome To Hell.
We all know that Propagandhi are big on early 80s punk, thrash and metal. This is one of several instances on the TETA album where take a popular lyric from those styles, and twist it to give it a new meaning (another example would be the use of "You've got another thing coming" on COINTELPRO, originally from the Judas Priest song).
I think this song basically about how we all end up the same - dead. Heaven or Hell are ultimately irrelevant concepts, and so it's a fallacy to suggest that any one human being can be "superior" or more important than another.
