Story behind the song
Title track to the album release of "Overture" by Erin Reilly. This concept album imitates a musical theater production, "Overture" is an entire music album that portrays the beginning to the end of time as accounted in the bible. It tells of the most epic true story of all time, where all humanity is called to have new life, freedom and confidence in the victory won by the main character, Jesus Christ. The serpent, also known as Satan, the main antagonist, relentlessly attempts to steal, kill, and destroy this plan of redemption God has set up since the very beginning. Highlighting the walk and perspective of biblical characters and present day believers "Overture" brings a prolific retelling of a story of war, tragedy, love, and redemption through music. Original album written and produced by Erin Reilly. Copyright 2025. Not all music is posted here on SoundCloud. You can get the full version of the album on all other music platforms. Additional Artists on the album: Barbie Alvear (Vocalist, Co-Lyricist, Marketing) Jim Cruz (Guitar) Edward Wiggins (Vocalist) Zoetic (Kierstyn St. John, piano and Emma Voron, Vocalist)
Lyrics
The serpent is preaching, so sweetly deceiving Severing God from man, a prop with revenge as the goal Beauty subsides in the violence of the song that never ends A war for the soul It was all in the overture, it was all in the overture CHORUS This is a fatal reprise A bite that kills from inside Alters the light within your eyes Demanding blood for redemption Rebellion that birthed death’s conception Repeats this overture, opened the aperture of demise For all mankind Waiting, the beast is surveilling Tempting to trap once more, enticing with power and vanity Craving beyond your dowry Trading boundaries for delight created enmity It was there hanging on a tree, the curse of humanity A sword was forged, we justly paid Can’t erase the taste of the serpent's fate The dangled knife in front of my face The fruit of Satan’s fall from grace Can’t bare the absence of God’s embrace Did you not hear the overture? Did you learn from the overture? It was all in the overture CHORUS Available from Ex-Captive Productions on: YOUTUBE: https://youtu.be/3g3B4bN2jIM?si=BLwWFvlbLq67YHXT SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/artist/23rjW...
