This article is about the song. For the gun in Cyberpunk 2077, see Archangel.


Archangel is a song by the band Samurai.

Overview

Pieces of Archangel can be heard in Cyberpunk 2077 - during Holdin' On, if Johnny plays a riff to catch Kerry's attention, and in Never Fade Away, when Johnny plays a concert in front of Arasaka Tower in the flashback. An instrumental version of what seems the whole song is heard during Boat Drinks, when destroying the ship. If romancing Kerry, the instrumental is heard in a higher quality. V can play parts of it in their apartment in Japantown.

The complete song was released alongside patch 1.5 of Cyberpunk 2077.

It was released in 2007 as part of The Ballad of Buck Ravers album.[1]

Lyrics

Archangel by SAMURAI (Refused)

[Intro]

The desire to destroy
To disrupt, to lose control
To rebuild and then
To tear it down again

[Verse 1]

I've bent it backwards until it breaks
Capacitors roaring inside my brain
Agent of chaos and discontent
We're gonna take out the corporate man

[Pre-Chorus]

Start-the-fire!
Start-the-fire!

[Chorus]

Come join the dance of destruction
Violence, sweet as a kiss
Set it off and it will never stop
Come join the dance of destruction
Violence, sweet as a kiss
Set it off and it will never stop
And it will never stop

[Verse 2]

Tear at the fabric, rip in the norm
Destructive architect with somewhere to go
I'll rip right through your sheepish herd
Feed insurrection to this broken world
I'm a lawless outcast always on the run
I'll challenge everything, I've just began to

[Pre-Chorus]

Start-the-riot!
Start-the-riot!

[Bridge]

The desire to destroy
To disrupt, to lose control
To rebuild and then
To tear it down again

[Chorus]

Come join the dance of destruction
Violence, sweet as a kiss
Set it off and it will never stop
Come join the dance of destruction
Violence, sweet as a kiss
Set it off and it will never stop
Come join the dance of destruction
Violence, sweet as a kiss
Set it off and it will never stop
Come join the dance of destruction
Violence, sweet as a kiss
Set it off and it will never stop
And it will never stop
Yeah!
