Overview

"Innervision" was the first promotional single released from Steal This Album!. ^[1]

The song was leaked prior to the album's release, although it was not included in the Toxicity II bootleg, rather than being leaked in a separate way. The origin of the leak is unknown. The leaked version features a slightly different arrangement and lyrics, most predominantly in the bridge and second verse where layered vocals are used on the album version.

It is the only System of a Down single to not come with a music video.
