    "I've got my family, sanity, everything I need"
    That single line is perfectly in-line with my constant mood. I've always loved how Cooper isn't afraid to speak his opinions, no matter how "controversial" the public thinks it is.

    Skillet, when this came out I was homeless, in and out of jail, and unhealthy. Now I have a house, a good job, and a husband. This song and "Clover Cage - Lies From The Devil” are the two songs that helped overcome my depression. I just want everyone to know things do get better, and they will! We are in this together. I love you 💕

      Popular 😂. Popular only means something if the people deeming you good are in fact good as a whole 😂. Seems today that so long as you can mumble talk with no rime..oh, I mean rap 😂 into a mic and little to no instrumental talent, really doing nothing else. Then your popular, much like it was in the early 2000s 😂. Look who our president is now. Look at the wake. Hell, my grocery store was just stop up last night and a kid died for no reason. The tilt of good and evil are completely flipped. So I say F them! Skillet stays, and F their opinion.🤘🏻long live metal and rock! The world needs a little unwavering GOOD.

    Lyrics:
    Am I the only one who ain't come undone?
    Everybody's lost their dang minds
    When you check your feed, it's like clown TV
    And you're waitin' for the punchline
    Oh, my my, hey, yeah
    Yes I'm a loner in the crowd
    Oh, my my, hey, yeah
    Yes I'm the one you've been talkin' about
    Yes I'm the one you've been talkin' about
    Unpopular, unpopular
    Call me outclassed, outcast, simple man, true facts
    Have you heard? I'm a commoner
    Got my family, sanity, everything I need
    If freedom is disease...
    Who would ever want to be...
    Popular? For what it's worth
    I think today's a good day to be unpopular
    I won't apologize when I speak my mind
    I'm just bein' me, so lay off
    If thinking for myself, is called raisin' hell
    I guess that I'm an outlaw, woo
    Oh, my my, hey, yeah
    I ain't a loner in the crowd
    Oh, my my, hey, yeah
    Yes we about to be gettin' loud
    Yes we about to be gettin' loud
    Unpopular, unpopular
    Call me outclassed, outcast, simple man true facts,
    Have you heard? I'm a commoner
    Got my family, sanity, everything I need
    If freedom is disease...
    Who would ever want to be...
    Popular? For what it's worth
    I think today's a good day to be unpopular
    Yes I'm the one you've been talkin' 'bout (Talkin' 'bout)
    Yes I'm the one you've been talkin' 'bout (Talkin' 'bout)
    Yes I'm the one you've been talkin' 'bout (Talkin' 'bout)
    Yes I am the one, whatever
    Unpopular, unpopular
    Call me outclassed, outcast, simple man true facts,
    Have you heard? I'm a commoner
    Got my family, sanity, everything I need
    If freedom is disease...
    Who would ever want to be...

    When I was a teen, Skillet was my favorite band, but then I don't know for almost a decade couldn't bare to listen anything connected to my teen years. A few years back, I gave it a go again. While many of bands I used to listen to back then had all changed style, Skillet still had the same sounds than when I left them. Point is, I still love Skillet as much as I did back then!!

      They will always have a place in my heart, too, but I don’t like any church or Christian artist turning all political. I became so disappointed in John during the pandemic & deeply saddened. I felt like someone scrambled his brain like most cause what little politics i participated in, I was Republican. Most of those either act like him now, worse, or are like me & ask “what the heck happened?!. I’m apolitical. But One perWhat world are we living in?!? Skillet was all about loving the outcast, the unloved, the forgotten. Then they became the opposite. I will listen to this song since everyone is saying the “old” skillet is back. I love good music. So I will give it a listen.

      Definitely agree. Obviously it's still Skillet's signature sound, but you can tell it's different, it's got a bit more fuel behind it. I already like this one song more than every song on Dominion (although I loved that record as well, because Skillet). I don't think Atlantic would have let that out-of-left-field "whatever" slide either, becaue as far as I'm aware, none of their other songs have anything very similar to that. Skillet is definitely doing what they want more freely now. I got a good feeling this new album is going to be insane!
