This is one of Megadeth famous songs with political meanings..it talks about how political leaders exploit the general people in their country and leads them to havoc and distruction for their own selfish purposes..which can be seen in the first 2 paras.. You take a mortal man, And put him in control Watch him become a god, Watch peoples heads a'roll A'roll... Just like the Pied Piper Led rats through the streets We dance like marionettes, Swaying to the Symphony... Of Destruction In the second verse talks about what happens when the general people tries to protest against this so called leaders... Acting like a robot, Its metal brain corrodes. they starts to act like emoitonless robots and take heartless measures to stop their protest/movement.. You try to take its pulse, Before the head explodes. Explodes... they starts to put military laws and riot polices and tear gas and rubber bullets on those protesting people.. But in the last para megadesht seems to be optimistic by saying that those leaders dont last in the end..they fall..and they had to resign in the face of movement of the general people.. The earth starts to rumble World powers fall A'warring for the heavens, A peaceful man stands tall Tall...

I agree it's about the Antichrist. I don't really care if Mustaine said it means something else, because sometimes they say that to hide the true meaning. That way, those who deserve to know the true meaning, discover it themselves. Believe what you want, though.

People that think that power corrupts man are stupid optimistic monkeys, power does NOT corrupt anything, but it let it show just what anything really, because when one has power, he can show who he TRULLY is, because then he does not have to respect any boundaries or limits that anyone tries to impose on him, and he can show his true nature. and the human nature is dark
