Description
Title track off of the new album. The song's name has been "officially" leaked on March 14th, 2022 via the JSON output from wontstanddown.muse.mu, which contains basic album info. In late May of 2022, Apple Music began showing the track length of the song in the album playlist, while Amazon set up a placeholder release date of June the 1st, hinting at the single being released in June. The song itself got leaked on May 26th, 2022, while the official release date remains to be announced.
Will Of The People has previously been teased by Muse through a couple of short clips, on YouTube and Instagram, revealing the album's name. Upon the album announcement, Warner described it as a track that "brings playful provocation to a dystopian glam-rocker"[3]
Instrumentation
The song starts out with a looping choir, built up of layers of Matt Bellamy chanting the line "The Will of the People". The same loop appears throughout the song. The track itself is based around guitar, bass and drums, with some guitar-synth layering, which is especially noticeable during the last part.
The song is similar to the work of Green Day’s Uno, Dos and Tré era, aswel as the Father Of All... era, bearing also some resemblance to Uprising and Psycho, as it is written in the same swing rhytm. The song runs in A-Major and at a tempo of 130BPM.

Lyrics
The will of the people
The will of the people The will of the, the will of the
The will of the people The will of the people The will of the, the will of the
The will of the people The will of the people The will of the, the will of the
The emperors into the ocean
Don’t need a gun to...
Our number increases
Institutions to pieces
We need a transformation One we can... We need a revolution ... So we stay free
Welcome to the.... Welcome to the celebration...
With a bottle of water With every second our anger increases ...Smash our nation to pieces
We need a... We need a revolution ... So we stay free
Welcome to the.... Welcome to the celebration... The future is ours
The will of the people The will of the people The will of the, the will of the
