    LYRICS:
    Before your time’s up
    These bars will open your mind up
    The spirit inside ya will live on ’til time’s done
    But when the lights go out you might not rise up again like the sun
    So embrace the present
    You never know when you might lose somebody you love
    Grievance hasn’t got a button you can just turn off
    Gotta stay true to yourself at any cost
    Ascend to the sky, you won’t get lost
    When a loved one’s here for a second then gone
    Your heart beats to the sound of the drum
    When someone above’s still sending you signals
    Letting you know you’re not on your own
    Hold onto your people
    Coz we were born alone, we won’t die alone
    You will never lose face by offering a shoulder
    Bring them into your space
    When the world seems like it’s colder
    You will never lose face by offering a shoulder
    Bring them into your space
    I’ve got love for friends and family who have fallen
    Regardless of distance I know none of us here wanna be forgotten
    Yeah times get rough for the best of us and daily life is just way too much
    Coz we’re riding the waves in the ocean
    Lost hope and faith and you’re feeling crushed
    We all need to move forward
    Need to see that there’s something more than what we had coz we have it all
    Emotions rise then emotions fall
    Feel pushed back and against the wall
    A positive mind will keep you strong
    Strike the match, ignite the flames, so we can carry on
    You will never lose face by offering a shoulder
    Bring them into your space
    When the world seems like it’s colder
    You will never lose face by offering a shoulder
    Bring them into your space
    There comes a time in life when someone will want you by their side
    And need you to keep them strong
    Alone they fall but we are one
    There will be a time
    When everything’s fine or so it seems
    Left with memories, holding onto dreams
    You will never lose face by offering a shoulder
    Bring them into your space
    When the world seems like it’s colder...

      +Greenyana These guys were sick at reading 2013, most people simultaneously crowdsurfing I've seen. Was sick when they came out for Shikari Sound System's set too. Man that was a good festival. Had Skindred and BMTH too. All about the british bands mate.

    This literally has everything I love in music:
    - solid but melodic metal riffs
    - post-rock ish tremolo guitars
    - beast rapping
    - clean singing
    YAY!

    This chorus has been in my memory since it came out and I could not for the life of me remember what it was from.
    DEFINITELY would've never guessed it was an old Hacktivist song ._.

    @theweirdbritishguy5035 Před 8 lety +3

    After listening to this song and watching the video around 10 times over, i think I've finally worked out the meaning behind the song. i think the song is about losing family and friends and looking after those who have lost lost someone close to them.
    This may seem really obvious but it took me awhile to finally get it. good work guys, i love the track and Rou is awesome on the track too!

  • @TheAlbinoskunk
    @TheAlbinoskunk Před 8 lety +1

    The chorus with Rou reminds me of something. I think it's the song Worlds Away by Climates? I think it's probably just a slightly similar tune for the chorus, but also the strain of his voice is VERY like Wes's voice in that song.

      @theW01F Před 8 lety +14

      +jeleopard Oh! This means John Browne must really love Fredrik Thordendal cause Meshuggah has been playing these riffs for years. People just inspire each other and i think Meshuggah, Monuments and Hacktivist are creating great music

    • @jeleopard
      @jeleopard Před 8 lety

      +PaulKanone I mean, Browne does love Thordendal, but these are just blatant Browne ripoffs. At least Browne adds on to Meshuggah riffs.

    @rexmar0207 Před 8 lety

    It makes sense that Rou's in this song because Hacktivist sounds a lot like Enter Shikari. I'm not saying it as a bad thing; it's just pretty obvious that ES is a pretty big influence of theirs.
