[AlexxKister]

WOW this is absolutely fantastic!!!! the lyrics are so meaningful and well written

[eclipse]

"don't make me wake the others"
no no, wake the others. they need to hear this absolute banger

[kpjhejt]

That “turn on the screen and obey me, I’m going to save you” is giving me chills, masterpiece!

Lyrical References [HEAVY SPOILERS for Mandela Catalog (MC)] [In order of line appearance]:
"sound coming from your phone" - It's been implied multiple times that these Alternates commune with their victims on "another spectrum" (MC: Exhibition iirc). This is also referenced in other lyrics, including "i'm the terror on your screen.", "to the man on your tv", "finding me here on your screen now", etc.

"you know they'll never find you" - In the encounters we have seen in volumes 1 and 2, especially Adams encounter, it's been said that they will never be found either in the same words or in some alteration.

"don't make me wake the others" - this is directly said in Mandela Catalog Volume 2 in the scene of a presumed intruder communicating to Adam.

"i'm repeating your screams" - in MC: Vol 2, the phrase "OH MY GOD BEHIND YOU" is repeated by one of the two victims as a glitch in the walkies created by the presence of an alternate.

"you followed the shepherd" and "it's time to wake up" - these two go hand in hand, as the "shepherd" is in reference to the ones in MC: Overthrone, in which the shepherds followed satan disguised as gabriel, and "wake up" refering to satan disguised telling joseph to wake up, one of the iconic lines in MC.

"i am inside your home" - a typical thing that comes from the perspective of a common intruder. most negative events happen within the victims own home (e.x. mark's encounter at age 4, mark's final encounter, the distraught mother's encounter, etc.)

"their faces aren't quite right" - a shown biological identification of alternates in MC: Think Principle. this is also shown as an intended glitch in Dean's video.

"intruders in the night" - another reference to the intruder side of MC, as shown in Dean's video, this is more referencing the intruder that mark encountered at the age of 4 in MC: Vol. 1

"they'll speak the words on sight" - as also shown in Dean's video, this is a reference to M.A.D. or Metaphysical Awareness Disorder.

"you'll join the others" - an implication that the modified brodcasts that the alternates put out turn the victims into alternates. or a possible implication that an alternate will take place of the victim in the song.

"to the face you've always seen" - this is conflicting. the image shows age 4 mark's drawing of the intruder, but this could also be referencing the victim's face, as alternates commonly copy the appearance of their victim.

"the door has been opened" - possibly referencing the locked door in MC: Vol. 2, in which an encounter lies behind.

"the static is calling" - the static on the device that the alternate, more specifically "Dean", is communicating through.

"you've made a bad decision" - directly said when Mark tried to hinder/eliminate the alternate in his final encounter. this is basically a confirmed reference due to the font change in the subtitles.

"nothing is worth the risk" - this is repeated many times throughout the series, making the first appearance after mark and ceaser's conversation iirc

"i'm coming to save you" - an obvious lie, as it is said by alternates in some of MC's many main encounters that no one saves the victims.

AUDIO REFERENCES:

- Mainly in the instrumental parts of the song, the Emergency Brodcast audio can be heard on beat with the song, echoing on beat.

- The scream heard in some parts of the song could possibly be of the "concerned friend" in MC: Vol. 1, which is in the final time that we see any footage of Mark and Caeser's conversation in Vol. 1.

VISUAL REFERENCES:

Various VHS overlay - A VHS recording timer, along with static, glitches, and the VHS font, can be seen throughout the entire video, exactly like Vol 1. of MC, minus the timer.

Intruder/Alternate face - At the very start of the dean's video, dean can be seen doing a replication of the face that is seen multiple times in MC, the first notable one being in the TV owned by the distraught mother.

Images in Dean's video - The images in the video are listed in order of appearance as ["Keep an eye on your children" from the distraight mother sequence, The crying coming from the missing infants room, ERROR screen from Vol. 1, One of the many humans seen in Dep. of Temporal Phenominon brodcasts, Satan in disguise, The warning that unauthorized individuals shouldn't view the brodcast, The intruder mark saw at age 4, One of the various ominous doorways, One of the brodcasted examples of M.A.D., Young Mark's drawing of his intruder encounter, The presumed figure of the real gabriel or jesus saying "please help me" to a presumed god in MC: Overthrone, The "do you understand?" screen from Vol. 2, Ditto but on top of Dean's face]

Alternate Dean's (Alt-dean-ates) - Many malformation's of LSE (or Dean as meantioned in various videos on his other channel) can be seen in many parts of the video, most of these are references to faces and figures representing alternates with the same malformations, such as upside down (he does a great handstand tho), the one creepy face from Vol. 2, the faceless, etc.

- (edit) 1:09 : The officially named alternate "N" can be seen, as you can tell from N's unique eyes.

Mysterious figure - Before the start of the bridge, a figure that doesn't look like an alteration of dean can be seen. As meantioned by another comment, it could be his wife.

"I'm coming to save you"
I would honestly fall for that in a blind panic

[NothingAiring]

ngl the intruder looks like a chill dude to hang with

[Serkoid]

Guys, I think he's inside his home.
Jokes aside, this is genuinely amazing, from the song to the vfx, everything. Fantastic job man, keep being awesome.

[JelloTheGreen]

The beat is kicking, the lyrics are great, the vocals slap, a very pleasant surprise from LSE. Hopefully we get some more original songs of the nerdcore variety. Long live the Longest Originals Ever!

[theninjasticcheetah]

“Don’t make me wake the others.” Literal Chills. First original song I’ve heard from you and I’m loving it! Can’t wait to hear more!

[intotheindievods]

Something I like is the fact that, with the Alternates you shown, there are 2 that reference the stick figures used to explain how some Alternates have impossible physiology, mainly being upside down (which appeared twice) and with a very big head (once) while having a few that have no face, just in the shadows, etc. I would have personally had the upside down ones handstand rather than stand like an upside down stick figure so it makes sense that they can move

[samthestupido]

I LOVE THE MANDELA CATALOGUE‼️‼️ this boutta be your best song

[JomJom]

Here before Alex Kister notices this >:)

Anyway, like wow, this is really outstanding, everything, music, visuals, the lyrics.. Keep up the awesome work LSE!!

[vixeloimusic]

2:45 This verse gives me chills. The way he describes running from a creature that looks just like you is so freaking unsettling!!!!

[thewalker]

I think this is the absolute perfect song for the Mandela Catalogue. Its full of references, its got amazing visuals that fit perfectly with the series, it uses the EAS siren as a beat, which is just awesome, and everything just comes together. I can't stress enough how much I love this.

Lyrics:
Im the fear of the unknown
The face in monochrome
Sound coming from your phone.
(Do you hear it?)
Im the terror on your screen
They don't know what you've seen
And once you've learned the truth you know they'll never find you

So admit your FEARS to the man on your tv.
Do they know you're here?
Don't make me wake the others.
Finding me here on your screen now, your caught inbetween, I'm repeating your screams, there's nowhere to hide.
Sleeping but don't you remember?
You followed the Shepard.
Its time to wake up.
(I am inside your home)

[Chill music break]

Here, their faces aren't quite right.
Intruders in the night.
They'll speak the words on sight
(DO YOU HEAR IT?)
Now don't even try to scream.
The ghost in the machine
You'll join the others.
Thousands more
Theyll never find you.

So confess your FEARS
To the face you've always seen
Do they know your here?
DONT MAKE ME WAKE THE OTHERS
Finding me here on your screen now, your caught inbetween, I'm repeating your screams, there's nowhere to hide.
Sleeping but don't you remember?
You followed the Shepard.
Its time to wake up.
(I am inside your home)

The door has been opened
The static is calling
Been waiting for you here, forever and always
So admit your fears
Do they know your here?
You've made a bad decision.
NOTHING IS WORTH THE RISK

Finding me here on your screen now, your caught inbetween im repeating your screams
There's nowhere to hide.
Sleeping but don't you remember?
You followed the Shepard.
Its time to wake up
(I am inside your home)
Seeing you face on another, you're running for cover
Its here at your door and time is running out
Turn on the screen and OBEY ME.
Im coming to save you.
Its time to wake up
(I am inside your home)

[Short music break, and ending]

[TheRoyalOrora]

This is not only a great Mandela Catalogue song, it's one of the best tracks in musical history! My brain is addicted to this track, especially to that banger of a chorus, and I can't get enough. You did a great job, and I wish you more attention. Thank you!

[Joanarr]

Who knew "I am inside your home" could be such a fire bar like 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
