Christina says in the video: "Ex. Xtina. Exhale. Explore. Express. Experiment. Exploit. Exclusive. Exist. Expire. My existence has no expiration. This is my liberation. This is our liberation. Be liberated with me. It's time for liberation. As one, a liberated nation."
The video concludes with the words "Xtina, liberation" repeated several times.
'Liberation' will be Christina's first album in six years, with her last studio venture being 2012's 'Lotus'.
