Flyleaf is one of those rare bands that gives you the same feeling that you had when you heard it for the first time, every time you listen to it for years to come
This is a good song and after being 35 I still think so However there's something else that I want to address because usually people who listen to this are in the mode of thinking that any argument can be settled merely with emotion people have unknowingly adopted a worldview that says that "truth is relative rather than objective" or "if it feels good it must be right" this idea goes right under people's nose in plain sight however if this idea has taken to its full extent than this means that no one has any logical right or justification to complain about anyting.... for the person that thinks that truth is only relative I would only ask what keeps them from falling into nihilism (.. idea that nothing matters everything that everyone ever hope for a struggle for is ultimately meaningless life is meaningless)... because relativism lead you in two ways either nihilism or hedonism (Hedonism being the idea of living only for pleasure)... and we all know that can turn bad really quick then one will potentially find themselves justifying what find detestable... so for the person reading this, if this indeed applies to you or someone you know, then some food for thought...why would one be engaging in an idea such as the truth being relative or relativism when it potentially leads to so much harm, and based on an historical account of human nature, often does?... Ultimately the idea of Live and Let Live sounds good to our ears but does harm because it really devolve down to I'll let you get away with what you want to get away with if you let me get away with what I want to get away with.... and again with human nature being what it is, why even promote an idea like that.
@@philliesfan3414 Wait what? I thought this was a Christian band anyways, no? I dont know much about it but i freaking love this song and all around me.
@@philliesfan3414 You might want to watch those interviews again, because you're completely wrong. Flyleaf (at the time Passerby) was created to be a Christian band. Lacey left a smaller band she was in because she didn't want to be part of a secular band after her conversion.
2006 just released from the clink, homeless, wondering aimlessly listening to this album and 30 seconds to Mars. It was all I had. 2022- homeowner, married, mother... fully alive.
You performed for us in 2009 in Afghanistan. You brought a sense of reality and, maybe oddly, comfort, to all of us who were tired, displaced, and needed some recognition that we were still human and that we were not forgotten. It was an amazing performance. Your voice was powerful, despite the "general's restrictions" against electric guitars. I will always remember - I cannot thank you enough.
I watched them in Kandahar 2009. It was tough to find some time flying DUSTOFF, as we were quite busy flying into hot LZ's in 2009 to fetch the wounded Soldiers and Marines. I remember the concert was pretty good.
Toby Keith came to our forgotten little airfield in Shindand out west in 2009. It was like a private concert. There was only a battalion of Army aviation, an ODA team, and an Italian company of infantry on Shindand, an old forgotten Russian field. Toby Keith rocked it with his acoustic guitarist.
I was so depressed and suicidal and this would come on at around 2am on public access TV and I feel like it saved me. That’s when I found God. Grateful for this band.
This band hits me differently now. First time I heard this band I was about 24. Experimented with drugs and hated myself because of anxiety and manic depression. Listening to this band in 2022? I am ready to Smile and Love life. I am fully ready to accept Him in my life
That's awesome and did you accept our Savior Jesus Christ. And that he died for every one so that we all could have a way in too our heavily Father's kingdom through him and only him 🙏 !!!!
Went to a Flyleaf show in 06. (Portland, OR) Opening bands didn't show. Flyleaf played their set, and ran away. All I hear "Fully reamed, believe, fully reamed"
In case anyone is wondering, this song is about a woman Lacey knew (Layla) that had a medical condition that kept her bedridden for months at a time, but even through the pain and confinement, she remained positive, loving to her husband, and happy to be alive.
@@modernzoociety the timing was wacky yeah it took me the longest just to be able to play the riff on time, but also the strange shifts in octave during the chorus, but I got it eventually I think helped by the fact that I sing as well, so the singing part helped me gauge the weird timing with the bass notes better :))
@@modernzoociety If you just focus in on the guitars and then break it down into sections, you'll get it! It's actually a much simpler pattern than it seems. It's just sliding around in drop D. :)
This is still a banger.... had the pleasure of working with Flyleaf a handful of times back in their prime and Lacy is a LOT shorter than she looks... the band was amazing and really acted "fully alive" during the set
Takes me back to when i was 4 or 5. I remember i was supposed to go to their concert in waco, but it rained and they had to reschedule and i never got to see them 😭
My brother used to hate that I listened to christian music. So for Christmas he gave me a Flyleaf CD and said, "here's some real music." He didn't know they were christian...haha. Jokes on him.
I loved Flyleaf despite them being christian. It's just great music that doesn't shove christianity in your face so you can ignore that aspect or even think of it in terms of your own beliefs. Also, Lacey has an incredible voice.
@@simonetrance Right. I was so surprised to find after years of listening that they're considered a christian band. I still don't see it, but hey. What can I do?
Finding out this singer was a Christian downright shocked me at 16 when I was a depressed atheist dealing with drugs and everything that comes along with that. Now a Christian at 25 looking back on some of these songs is just awesome. Rock on.
I'm still agnostic at 26 but still love this music nonetheless. P.O.D is another Christian band whose lyrics and musical style just speaks to me even after all these years
This is the kind of music most churches need it keeps young teens, young adults and children intrested and in turn makes them want to learn more about God. Despite the devil running rampant on earth God will always win and his word will always be spread into this world wether you like it or not. If anyone hasent told you today, then Jesus loves you for the Bible tells us so.
BlueDeviantGamer well I was getting her to sign my hoodie and when I stretched out my hoodie (I was wearing it) my hand slipped and hit her in the stomach. I was soo embarrassed. I hugged her and apologized 288473828193 times lol.

Flyleaf, you helped me feel things that I couldn’t admit out loud in an extremely oppressive home. I am now physically free, but the mental freedom is coming slowly. Listening to this some reminds me of how far I’ve gotten, and how much hope there is for the future ❤️❤️🔥🕊
I pray you overcome and break free. There is hope. There is joy there is peace. I truly believe there is a power to overcome the darkness in this world.
I'm a youth Pastor we saw you preform at fusion Alaska this year, you are with out a doubt a breath of fresh air. doing the Jeremy camp concert you sat and talk with my youth girls for about 30min. you added value to their lives beyond words can explain. you are all about ministry, real authentic refreshing. by the way talked with you Husband He is amazing man as well. Jesus bless you both......

For anyone wondering, Layla is a friend of Lacey. Lacey apparently toured with Layla and her husband early in her career before Flyleaf made it big. Layla has Palindromic Rheumatism which causes her joints to fill with fluid and is extremely painful. I assume this can cause weak bones as well which could explain the second line of this song. It's amazing that Lacey made a song for her friend like this and even more amazing that it was one of her most popular songs.
@Preston Hanson not your wheelhouse clearly. You must be some fucking expert being able to judge strangers mental states. Im sure glad there are idiots as bright as you are, sunshine!
If you like you could listen to □PENUMBRA - Sacrificio (Video Lyrics)□ it's a similar style, maybe you like it too. I'd love to know your opinion about them.
Beautiful testament to the life and attitude of our Blessed Mother 🙏🏼 "Fully alive More than most, ready to smile, and love life Fully alive and she knows How to believe in futures"

@@GRAVEHEART453 you're mistaken.. referring to someone as "biased" simply means that they go one way or the other on a given issue. It isn't unnecessary to put a good or a bad connotation on it the word, "biased" is simply meant to be taken at face value. In addition I know you didn't bring this up but telling somebody that they are biased doesn't really defeat their argument one would have to still provide contrary evidence. ... however I am a little confused on something.... I have no idea whether "bias" is the word being used here or "based"... but on the occasion that it is "based"... I guess it might be a generational thing to which I'm ignorant. I'm still going hit like on your comment though
@@Dr.Gainzzz okay Christian, go on pretending like a victim because someone is sick and tired of Christians and your Christian privilege. you people just don't get it.
With how prevalent autotune is in music now it's actually really nice to hear a voice that can sing, a strong one at that. Lacey's voice going from strong and gritty to soft and sweet is wicked good for the ears
I’d bet all my money that some sort of vocal correction was used in the studio for this album. Stuff like autotune and melodyne have been standard for producers for a long time now. It’s not always noticeable, but it’s generally always there. Howard Benson, the producer for the album, admits to overusing autotune in the studio, particularly when he received his first copy.

@@enoch3874 moral relativism is a funny thing that people argue over because I think a lot of the disagreement boils down to semantics but at the end of the day, if we make both people write a short list of what is wrong and right, they'll probably have very similar answers. Ultimately I think this is because relavitism vs absolutism is not as big a deal as people are make it out to be. You describe a number of "slippery slopes" for relativist thought, but someone could easily do the same is absolutism. Muslim extremists have a fully absolutist view of morality, they would literally rather murder people than consider the views of others. Why I think the argument is more semantic than people give it credit for: among religious communities, not all members are equally moral. Some are satisfied by being passingly told what is right by their pastor, and just going along with it. But the moral beacons of most communities, religious or otherwise, are those who take the time to truly think and consider the nature of morality and most of all on the impacts it has on those around them. We may believe that there is some objective moral good but the path there can never be simple. There can be a moral nihilist who has taken the time to consider the absurd chaos of the world and come to the conclusion that it is their duty to provide the scaffolding of morality for more goodness in the world to built on top of. That idea is in fact the core point of many of nietzshe's writings. Of course you can have a horrible person who never made it two seconds past the idea of "there is no inherent meaning in anything" and just uses it as an excuse to do whatever they want. The problem here is LAZY morality rather nihilism. It's the same issue with people who snooze through church every sunday and can barely make a moral choice with a step by step breakdwon. The idea I would challenge you to accept is that moral relativism and absolutism are actually not mutually exclusive. You can believe that there is an absolute good that we should aspire to while also recognizing the reality that the world we live in is insanely complex and we MUST consider and measure the the moral ideas of others in order for us to have a chance at navigating the tide.
This band chose to be in concert with non secular heavy metal bands so that the metal heads could hear the band and see that drugs and alcohol and suicide didn’t ’t have to be in your life and they showed a lot of people that Jesus was there for them.miss the old group

I was a 15 years old girl with depression and an old boyfriend introduced me to this group. This music helped me a lot when I felt bad or tired of being here. Sometimes words are better than anything else. 11 years after and I still listen Flyleaf when I feel bad and depressed.
I’m so happy to hear people tell how they were depressed and music has. Brought them comfort.. I’m sure Lacey would be proud to know her voice has helped so many!!
I seen her at Jake's bar and grill on Lubbock TX got in the mash pit went down and when I was getting up someone kick me in forehead split my skin above my left eye. One of the best time at i had met the band and partyed with them untill my wife came and told me she was ready to leave and so we did leave, I was having a great time. She now my Ex.
Before I knew Flyleaf was "Christian inspired" I was a fan of their music. Was at church one day and they were playing a video about this young woman who was on her way to commit suicide. She happened to walk past a church and figured "Why not?" As she was leaving a woman stopped her and said something to effect "God spoke to me and said I was to save you from what you are about to do" Anyway, the whole time this story is being told, this track is playing in the background. Kind of cool for my church I thought. In the end when they start to disclose it was actually her and this was her story, I was damn near in tears! Whether you believe in a God or not, you have to feel in your soul there is a high power at work here. I get chills now hearing her music.

That was 12 years ago when you discovered the song, so that would've been in 2008. You discovered 3 years later. The song came out in 2005. I remember when it dropped on MTV. I still can't believe I had such good taste in music when I was 10 years old.
Whoa. Someone else spoke about the song's meaning and the fact that it was about someone named Layla, they didn't specify anything about her being Trustcompany's singer's wife. That's a throwback name, one of the few lesser known bands of the time whose CD I actually owned.
This music is timeless. There has been no decade since that has been creative and poweful enough to make timeless music. It is a fucking travesity and I hope to see another mucic revolution in my time here on Earth. Until then, I will just listen to this music.
This song makes me want to not kill myself all the time it makes all of my stress and depression off and makes me want to feel a rush of energy to do exciting things to get my mind off things
I cant keep myself from being sorry after watching music videos of this damned talented band cuz there's no such taste in music in today's bands like Flyleaf. Missing them so bad.
I kinda feel you, but in reality you just aren't looking in the right places if you truly believe that. Don't rely on tv and radio for your music 'cause ya, that's shit now, but good music is out there and not that hard to find.
Lucas Howard With all my heart, I agree but.. No exact words to describe, you just become sorry and want to question why there are less lefts to make me feel excited such as Flyleaf even if there exists such bands.
Ariel but as I remember, Flyleaf always denied that they were Cristian band. They didn't see themselves as Criatian band. Don't know how much it is true but I think this may be not the reason.
my dad showed me Flyleaf when i was like 11. im still in love to this day. it's crazy to think im in my 20s now, still relying on the same music as back then haha 😭
That's a sign of getting old 🥳 When we're young, hearing new music causes a release of dopamine in our brains. As we get older, many of us lose that ability and instead get that dopamine reaction from hearing music we're familiar with

This is a good song and after being 35 I still think so However there's something else that I want to address because usually people who listen to this are in the mode of thinking that any argument can be settled merely with emotion people have unknowingly adopted a worldview that says that "truth is relative rather than objective" or "if it feels good it must be right" this idea goes right under people's nose in plain sight however if this idea has taken to its full extent than this means that no one has any logical right or justification to complain about anyting.... for the person that thinks that truth is only relative I would only ask what keeps them from falling into nihilism (.. idea that nothing matters everything that everyone ever hope for a struggle for is ultimately meaningless life is meaningless)... because relativism lead you in two ways either nihilism or hedonism (Hedonism being the idea of living only for pleasure)... and we all know that can turn bad really quick then one will potentially find themselves justifying what find detestable... so for the person reading this, if this indeed applies to you or someone you know, then some food for thought...why would one be engaging in an idea such as the truth being relative or relativism when it potentially leads to so much harm, and based on an historical account of human nature, often does?...
Ultimately the idea of Live and Let Live sounds good to our ears but does harm because it really devolve down to I'll let you get away with what you want to get away with if you let me get away with what I want to get away with.... and again with human nature being what it is, why even promote an idea like that.
@@philliesfan3414 Wait what? I thought this was a Christian band anyways, no? I dont know much about it but i freaking love this song and all around me.
I remember I was fully in love with her the first time I saw this video back when it came out!
OMG!!!!
@@philliesfan3414 You might want to watch those interviews again, because you're completely wrong. Flyleaf (at the time Passerby) was created to be a Christian band. Lacey left a smaller band she was in because she didn't want to be part of a secular band after her conversion.
@@philliesfan3414 she didnt leave bc she got religious, she left because someone close to her died.
2006 just released from the clink, homeless, wondering aimlessly listening to this album and 30 seconds to Mars. It was all I had.
2022- homeowner, married, mother... fully alive.
Amen God is Good, what an amazing story. Bless you strong mama ❤️
😇🙏
The shit you listen to when your homeless sticks with you ❤
Fuck yes
This made me cry, how beautiful.
Hey, it’s September 2023 and I’m bumping this with my high school sweetheart! Coming on 15 years with 3 rad kids… couldn’t be happier!
You performed for us in 2009 in Afghanistan. You brought a sense of reality and, maybe oddly, comfort, to all of us who were tired, displaced, and needed some recognition that we were still human and that we were not forgotten. It was an amazing performance. Your voice was powerful, despite the "general's restrictions" against electric guitars. I will always remember - I cannot thank you enough.
Where were you at? I was in country same year and we got lucky that Toby Keith and his folks were willing to come out to Salerno.
I watched them in Kandahar 2009. It was tough to find some time flying DUSTOFF, as we were quite busy flying into hot LZ's in 2009 to fetch the wounded Soldiers and Marines. I remember the concert was pretty good.
Toby Keith came to our forgotten little airfield in Shindand out west in 2009. It was like a private concert. There was only a battalion of Army aviation, an ODA team, and an Italian company of infantry on Shindand, an old forgotten Russian field. Toby Keith rocked it with his acoustic guitarist.
@@H60ace nice, I was at FOB Salerno. Was a great time
i was at fob shank in 09.
If you ever hear this via headphones or whatever, the first few notes would separate on each ear. It's cool
Yep
@@t_4_tay-430 stereo panning
Does it in car speakers also. Here 4 years later. 😁🤣
It scared me at first lmao
I just got 2 new sets of headphones on Friday . Listening to this whole album is totally freaking cool !!!
I was so depressed and suicidal and this would come on at around 2am on public access TV and I feel like it saved me. That’s when I found God. Grateful for this band.
This band hits me differently now. First time I heard this band I was about 24. Experimented with drugs and hated myself because of anxiety and manic depression. Listening to this band in 2022? I am ready to Smile and Love life. I am fully ready to accept Him in my life
@@missyjones7557 I think you experimented with the wrong drugs, friend.
That's awesome and did you accept our Savior Jesus Christ. And that he died for every one so that we all could have a way in too our heavily Father's kingdom through him and only him 🙏 !!!!
Glad to hear that!
im not christian but im happy that you are feeling better
WHOS HERE IN 2024!? 💖💖💖💖
Im here every year, every month, every week!!!!
Fly, was part of my soundtrack for world at war, Black Ops original zombies. And more
meeeeeee
Went to a Flyleaf show in 06. (Portland, OR)
Opening bands didn't show.
Flyleaf played their set, and ran away.
All I hear "Fully reamed, believe, fully reamed"
ME BABY
In case anyone is wondering, this song is about a woman Lacey knew (Layla) that had a medical condition that kept her bedridden for months at a time, but even through the pain and confinement, she remained positive, loving to her husband, and happy to be alive.
Awe 🥺
Her husband was Kevin Palmer, the lead singer of Trust Company
I've been bedridden for months
It sucks.
Sounds like MS, multiple sclerosis
And yet here I am with a comment about this being a chronic pain anthem and getting called an idiot.
God whoever would’ve thought I’d be nostalgic of being 14 when I was so depressed and wanted to die. The music was the only good thing in my life.
Right...me 2
people who havent been there dont understand
Vanna Del Rey stay positive tomorrow will be better
Fully Alive
No one cares crybaby
The guitar riff in the chorus is _still_ one of the hardest I've ever heard.
I just learned the bass riff :p playing this song as a cover with my band at our next open mic!
Yes! Im still trying to figure out the timing and it dosent sound right
@@modernzoociety the timing was wacky yeah it took me the longest just to be able to play the riff on time, but also the strange shifts in octave during the chorus, but I got it eventually I think helped by the fact that I sing as well, so the singing part helped me gauge the weird timing with the bass notes better :))
@@modernzoociety If you just focus in on the guitars and then break it down into sections, you'll get it! It's actually a much simpler pattern than it seems. It's just sliding around in drop D. :)
@@Allystargirl Reminds me of 46&2 by Tool in the verse.
This is still a banger.... had the pleasure of working with Flyleaf a handful of times back in their prime and Lacy is a LOT shorter than she looks... the band was amazing and really acted "fully alive" during the set
That’s cool if you don’t mind me asking what did you do?
Yeah she's like 4'11" at the most. I was absolutely ASTOUNDED to see that voice come out of such a tiny lady in person.
Flyleaf fuckin rocks.
He was the fluffer
@@MisterJackson2U i just woke up and i read this as "flyleaf fuckin sucks" i was so confused
This takes me back to middle school days..MySpace days lol
Myspace was better than Facebook.
Ok but I'm gonna pass the torch to my middle schooler. Lay low, this is for you 😁😍🤗
Takes me back to when i was 4 or 5. I remember i was supposed to go to their concert in waco, but it rained and they had to reschedule and i never got to see them 😭
@@angelicabailey124 ... they still played with a tornado warning... so ya...
@@ahhwe-any7434 yes!!
My brother used to hate that I listened to christian music. So for Christmas he gave me a Flyleaf CD and said, "here's some real music." He didn't know they were christian...haha. Jokes on him.
I loved Flyleaf despite them being christian. It's just great music that doesn't shove christianity in your face so you can ignore that aspect or even think of it in terms of your own beliefs.
Also, Lacey has an incredible voice.
Love gospel and Christian rock etc...
@@simonetrance Right. I was so surprised to find after years of listening that they're considered a christian band. I still don't see it, but hey. What can I do?
Flyleaf is a Christian band??
LOL
I love how the lyrics have such a positive message and this song still slaps.
We use to make AMVs back in the day with this song. I miss that era so much 😭
Finding out this singer was a Christian downright shocked me at 16 when I was a depressed atheist dealing with drugs and everything that comes along with that. Now a Christian at 25 looking back on some of these songs is just awesome. Rock on.
Sheldon Sawyer 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Glory to God!!
I'm still agnostic at 26 but still love this music nonetheless. P.O.D is another Christian band whose lyrics and musical style just speaks to me even after all these years
I listened to them as an atheist preteen/teen now and it really does seem even better now that I’m a Christian adult
I'm sorry you got suckered into the religion trap, but glad you appreciate good music.
That guitar and her voice together is flawless 😍😍 still listening 2k19
Oh me too...we have RAD taste!!!!
Lacey Sturm is the best it's for that reason 😉😊
@@Jay_Z. Yes we do!! 😄😄
agreed
Samesies
2 weeks and 2 days and i see this live. i cannot handle it
lucky aah
3 weeks and 3 days and i see this live. i can handle it
This is the kind of music most churches need it keeps young teens, young adults and children intrested and in turn makes them want to learn more about God. Despite the devil running rampant on earth God will always win and his word will always be spread into this world wether you like it or not. If anyone hasent told you today, then Jesus loves you for the Bible tells us so.
Flyleaf was amazing in concert. I met lacey twice. The band is awesome
BlueDeviantGamer she is tiny haha. She is 4' 11" and I accidentally hit her in the stomach

2024. We're so back!!
Flyleaf, you helped me feel things that I couldn’t admit out loud in an extremely oppressive home. I am now physically free, but the mental freedom is coming slowly. Listening to this some reminds me of how far I’ve gotten, and how much hope there is for the future ❤️❤️🔥🕊
Stay strong and keep pushing🙌🙏
I pray you overcome and break free. There is hope. There is joy there is peace. I truly believe there is a power to overcome the darkness in this world.

@@enoch3874 it’s just the lyrics stfu
@@enoch3874 Longest 2 sentences ever.
For anyone wondering, Layla is a friend of Lacey. Lacey apparently toured with Layla and her husband early in her career before Flyleaf made it big. Layla has Palindromic Rheumatism which causes her joints to fill with fluid and is extremely painful. I assume this can cause weak bones as well which could explain the second line of this song. It's amazing that Lacey made a song for her friend like this and even more amazing that it was one of her most popular songs.
We love you ❤❤❤
This is the anthem for those of us living with chronic pain or illnesses.
@Preston Hanson hUh?!
@Preston Hanson true! This song is about the feeling she gets devoting her life to Christ!
@Preston Hanson not your wheelhouse clearly. You must be some fucking expert being able to judge strangers mental states. Im sure glad there are idiots as bright as you are, sunshine!
or just people who like good music...
@@insomniacbritgaming1632 no it's actually not. I'm not going to explain what it's about, bc you can easily look it up and see her talking about it.
This is one song I come back to year after year. Such a good band and her vocal range is killer!
If you like you could listen to □PENUMBRA - Sacrificio (Video Lyrics)□ it's a similar style, maybe you like it too. I'd love to know your opinion about them.

Based 👍
@@teiyusteki are you trying to say biased?
@@enoch3874 no. "based" means that uour opinion is good/valid
@@GRAVEHEART453 you're mistaken.. referring to someone as "biased" simply means that they go one way or the other on a given issue.
It isn't unnecessary to put a good or a bad connotation on it the word, "biased" is simply meant to be taken at face value.
In addition I know you didn't bring this up but telling somebody that they are biased doesn't really defeat their argument one would have to still provide contrary evidence.
... however I am a little confused on something.... I have no idea whether "bias" is the word being used here or "based"... but on the occasion that it is "based"... I guess it might be a generational thing to which I'm ignorant.
I'm still going hit like on your comment though

This song kicks ass very underrated Christian band😢
With how prevalent autotune is in music now it's actually really nice to hear a voice that can sing, a strong one at that. Lacey's voice going from strong and gritty to soft and sweet is wicked good for the ears
I’d bet all my money that some sort of vocal correction was used in the studio for this album. Stuff like autotune and melodyne have been standard for producers for a long time now. It’s not always noticeable, but it’s generally always there.
Howard Benson, the producer for the album, admits to overusing autotune in the studio, particularly when he received his first copy.
This song has hella autotune lol I saw them when I was like 13 but her voice in person is actually still really nice

@@enoch3874 moral relativism is a funny thing that people argue over because I think a lot of the disagreement boils down to semantics but at the end of the day, if we make both people write a short list of what is wrong and right, they'll probably have very similar answers. Ultimately I think this is because relavitism vs absolutism is not as big a deal as people are make it out to be. You describe a number of "slippery slopes" for relativist thought, but someone could easily do the same is absolutism. Muslim extremists have a fully absolutist view of morality, they would literally rather murder people than consider the views of others.
Why I think the argument is more semantic than people give it credit for: among religious communities, not all members are equally moral. Some are satisfied by being passingly told what is right by their pastor, and just going along with it. But the moral beacons of most communities, religious or otherwise, are those who take the time to truly think and consider the nature of morality and most of all on the impacts it has on those around them. We may believe that there is some objective moral good but the path there can never be simple.
There can be a moral nihilist who has taken the time to consider the absurd chaos of the world and come to the conclusion that it is their duty to provide the scaffolding of morality for more goodness in the world to built on top of. That idea is in fact the core point of many of nietzshe's writings. Of course you can have a horrible person who never made it two seconds past the idea of "there is no inherent meaning in anything" and just uses it as an excuse to do whatever they want. The problem here is LAZY morality rather nihilism. It's the same issue with people who snooze through church every sunday and can barely make a moral choice with a step by step breakdwon.
The idea I would challenge you to accept is that moral relativism and absolutism are actually not mutually exclusive. You can believe that there is an absolute good that we should aspire to while also recognizing the reality that the world we live in is insanely complex and we MUST consider and measure the the moral ideas of others in order for us to have a chance at navigating the tide.
@@hafcat Of course. Thats how it is in the industry.
This band chose to be in concert with non secular heavy metal bands so that the metal heads could hear the band and see that drugs and alcohol and suicide didn’t ’t have to be in your life and they showed a lot of people that Jesus was there for them.miss the old group

2023 still here listening to these master pieces actually almost 2024
LISTENING IN 2022
I was a 15 years old girl with depression and an old boyfriend introduced me to this group. This music helped me a lot when I felt bad or tired of being here. Sometimes words are better than anything else. 11 years after and I still listen Flyleaf when I feel bad and depressed.
I’m so happy to hear people tell how they were depressed and music has. Brought them comfort.. I’m sure Lacey would be proud to know her voice has helped so many!!
I seen her at Jake's bar and grill on Lubbock TX got in the mash pit went down and when I was getting up someone kick me in forehead split my skin above my left eye. One of the best time at i had met the band and partyed with them untill my wife came and told me she was ready to leave and so we did leave, I was having a great time. She now my Ex.
Before I knew Flyleaf was "Christian inspired" I was a fan of their music.
Was at church one day and they were playing a video about this young woman who was on her way to commit suicide. She happened to walk past a church and figured "Why not?"
As she was leaving a woman stopped her and said something to effect "God spoke to me and said I was to save you from what you are about to do"
Anyway, the whole time this story is being told, this track is playing in the background. Kind of cool for my church I thought.
In the end when they start to disclose it was actually her and this was her story, I was damn near in tears!
Whether you believe in a God or not, you have to feel in your soul there is a high power at work here. I get chills now hearing her music.
There are no coincidences; all of us have a purpose and all that happens does so for a reason
A daughter of God on a mission. How you made worship music reach millions of people. Hail Lacey.
True fans are here in 2022!

Only because she has suffered
Fully alive
More than most
Ready to smile and love life
Fully alive
Now she knows
How to believe in futures
Fully alive
More than most
Ready to smile and love life
Fully alive
Now she knows
How to believe in futures
Fully alive
More than most
Ready to smile and love life
Fully alive
Now she knows
How to believe in futures
TAnk you!
*Thank *
Thank you🧡
Thank u, I love that all flyfleaf have at least one comment for lyrics
What an awesome song! First time I've read the lyrics!
Saw them in 2006 on the family values tour. They seriously kicked ass. That singer took over the stage. Incredible stage presence
I saw them at May Day 2006.
Guys, LACEY IS BACK ON FLYLEAF!!!! 2023!!
Here in 2023 and will be for the rest of my life Lacey Sturm is a legend 🔥
Still one of the Best Gospel bands ever. 2022
This is a good song and after being 35 I still think so However there's something else that I want to address because usually people who listen to this are in the mode of thinking that any argument can be settled merely with emotion people have unknowingly adopted a worldview that says that "truth is relative rather than objective" or "if it feels good it must be right" this idea goes right under people's nose in plain sight however if this idea has taken to its full extent than this means that no one has any logical right or justification to complain about anyting.... for the person that thinks that truth is only relative I would only ask what keeps them from falling into nihilism (.. idea that nothing matters everything that everyone ever hope for a struggle for is ultimately meaningless life is meaningless)... because relativism lead you in two ways either nihilism or hedonism (Hedonism being the idea of living only for pleasure)... and we all know that can turn bad really quick then one will potentially find themselves justifying what find detestable... so for the person reading this, if this indeed applies to you or someone you know, then some food for thought...why would one be engaging in an idea such as the truth being relative or relativism when it potentially leads to so much harm, and based on an historical account of human nature, often does?...
Ultimately the idea of Live and Let Live sounds good to our ears but does harm because it really devolve down to I'll let you get away with what you want to get away with if you let me get away with what I want to get away with.... and again with human nature being what it is, why even promote an idea like that.
Fully alive more than most ready to smile and love life fully alive now she knows how to believe in futures.
Sierra Jones Yes she doe's! Insha'Allah sister! There is hope!
still an epic song in 2023
Flyleaf FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This song has found itself back in my life after so many years
Same
Her voice gives me goosebumps 😌
ASMR
Had the pleasure to see Lacy live on more then one occasion. Absolutely amazing!
i am not christian or religious whatsoever but i def appreciate musical talent and this band is amazing one of my favs
The first time I heard this was 11 years ago. My then-teenage daughter sang this as part of her choir audition. Such a proud Papa!
Still rocking out to this in 2023!!! Timeless!
Lacey Sturm- vocals
Sameer Bhattacharya- lead guitar
Jared Hartmann- rhythm guitar
Pat Seals- bass
James Culpepper- drums
I miss her so much.. :/
you knows she still makes music right? :/
Sammumoo~ I know, her songs are amazing
CupcakeVe yeah so why do you miss her? cx
Sammumoo~ I miss her on flyleaf too, it's not the same
CupcakeVe Flyleaf is always Flyleaf and they're still an amazing band that I love and will always love ^^
She's so underrated that voice sounds angelic and demonic at the same time amazing job
True true fans are here all the time 🔥
I remember when I found this song about 6 or 7 years ago when I was about 15 and I just couldn't stop listening to it. It's so awesome!
Me too !
Me Three!!!!!! 😊
Donkey!
Charlo im 23 found it last week its been on replay since 😂😂😂
That was 12 years ago when you discovered the song, so that would've been in 2008. You discovered 3 years later. The song came out in 2005. I remember when it dropped on MTV. I still can't believe I had such good taste in music when I was 10 years old.
Ahh this taste like nostalgia. Mhp. Mhp. A splash of Middle school and a touch of anxiety🤔An after taste of “fully alive”😊hearing this song.
Her voice is soooo damn perfect for a rock band. Literally could not be more awesome.
TRUE FANS ARE HERE IN 2022! SHOW OF HANDS!
Lacey makes Billie Eilish look like a Lounge Singer.
Jimmy Gingo You’re comparing apples and oranges
That's an insult to lounge singers...
can someone explain to me why every prepubescent girl loves billie eilish? lol
@@thenickfoxx media has pushed Billie to the masses so they've attached themselves to mediocre artists like her...
lol
Worth mentioning, this song was inspired by the struggles of Layla Palmer, the wife of the frontman of Trust Company Kevin Palmer.
Whoa. Someone else spoke about the song's meaning and the fact that it was about someone named Layla, they didn't specify anything about her being Trustcompany's singer's wife. That's a throwback name, one of the few lesser known bands of the time whose CD I actually owned.
Flyleaf is one of top 5 bands seen them this year at upevil in Grand Rapids 2023❤🎤🎸
Soon 2024 will be here and this song is still the best who else agrees
Her voice has always baffled me, it's so unique.
"...she's glad for one day of comfort only because she has suffered.."
My fav part of the song c:
This music is timeless. There has been no decade since that has been creative and poweful enough to make timeless music. It is a fucking travesity and I hope to see another mucic revolution in my time here on Earth. Until then, I will just listen to this music.
Thank the Lord she found Jesus she's such a sweetheart
She's an angel!! So pretty in God's name! ✝️🙏👌
shes so beautiful.
I know she's so b
She the definition of perfection!!
I love flyleaf
Gorgeous
2023 and still the same emotions ❤️
@1:15 that shot of the guitar player is bad ass
This song makes me want to not kill myself all the time it makes all of my stress and depression off and makes me want to feel a rush of energy to do exciting things to get my mind off things
How are you now
if he hasnt replied in 3 weeks either the same or...
It's her voice.
The more I see the commercial for the new Flyleaf album, the more I listen to old Flyleaf.
For real. The new flyleaf lead singer just ..upsetting. her lyrics sucks and it's to uppity. I miss Lacey Strum. :(
Shes not that bad. Too many smiles
Alex Medina *Sturm
Yeah...well... She sucks ;|
Alex Medina lacy is way better i saw kristen sing im so sick she ruined it she doesn't scream at all i wish lacey would come back to flyleaf
Milady Miss Lacey. Immortal. 🤘
still here at 2023, til the end. i will listen on this masterpiece.
her voice hits me in my squishy parts
That is... nice to know...
+Mr. Jesus Fish Perfect anwer, Mister Jezus. xD
Fully alive? More like fully erect.
this comment made my day
same and its 2019 now
I find it funny how people always talk about All Around Me when THIS was truly the flyleaf song.
So Sick is one of my all time favorites 🤘🎶
2023 still jamming
A true natural beauty and owns it.
I cant keep myself from being sorry after watching music videos of this damned talented band cuz there's no such taste in music in today's bands like Flyleaf. Missing them so bad.
I kinda feel you, but in reality you just aren't looking in the right places if you truly believe that. Don't rely on tv and radio for your music 'cause ya, that's shit now, but good music is out there and not that hard to find.
Lucas Howard With all my heart, I agree but.. No exact words to describe, you just become sorry and want to question why there are less lefts to make me feel excited such as Flyleaf even if there exists such bands.
Probably because people have taken God away from their music...
Ariel but as I remember, Flyleaf always denied that they were Cristian band. They didn't see themselves as Criatian band. Don't know how much it is true but I think this may be not the reason.
The singers completely a christian singer I met her at Rock The Lakes...
I love Flyleaf! Lacey taught me how to not be afraid to scream on stage. Her yell is truly unmatched.
Still coming here to watch in late 2023
TRUE FANS ARE HERE IN 2023❤
my dad showed me Flyleaf when i was like 11. im still in love to this day. it's crazy to think im in my 20s now, still relying on the same music as back then haha 😭
That's a sign of getting old 🥳
When we're young, hearing new music causes a release of dopamine in our brains. As we get older, many of us lose that ability and instead get that dopamine reaction from hearing music we're familiar with
@@yeahreally9185 noooo, i dont wanna get olderrrr!! 😭😭😂😂😂🥴
@@yeahreally9185
Not really, I’ve always gone back to stuff from my childhood even as a teen, while still appreciating some new stuff

Listened to this when I skateboarded. I’m a dad now taking my son to the skatepark listening to this on the way to the skatepark. Fucken crazy
I have so much love for this Christian band
Listen. Im not religious. But these guys were just sooooo good. Their sound, her voice, the heavier lyrics. Ll, the darker tones. Loved it. Still do. 2023
You don't have to be religious to believe And be a Christian. He loves you believe in Him. He believes in you. FULLY ALIVE. He makes us when He comes to live in us in our heart.
How did I just discover Flyleaf in 2021? I would have loved this if I would have known about it 11 years ago.
Fully ALIVE,
YES🦅🦅🦅🦅
