To all the 30 somethings that can’t believe we got this old, and remember this song from a simpler time in our youth, I feel you. Keep going.
25 here but we keep going
27 bro, everyone keep your heads up we’re all here for you
Old but still learning
Needed that bro. We've got this!
You know given I turn 30 in less than a week I feel a little called out seeing this comment, lol.
I'm glad my younger self listened to this song as a pre-teen that way I could come back here and listen as an adult during a time in my life when I need to hear it all. Thanks younger me, and thanks Relient
Sunshine Spaceclouds just discovered this awesome band few months ago and i'm 14 so none of my friends listen to this band as it's quite old
Funk is what you are, SunShine !
Sunshine and Spacecloud same.
well said
Wowww same i havent heard this song in YEARS
I miss the pop punk era so much.
Simpler times.
Omgsh yes 😔 better times
I was young at the time but yeah
Same here
There are still a ton of great pop-punk bands. Neck Deep, Seaway, Grayscale, State Champs, Man Overboard, Waterparks.... I just miss it being mainstream and almost everyone knowing it. It was easier to make friends.
@@CoverTimePete Same :/ I love Neck Deep and TSSF though
2024 still rocking this jam
Cool song bud.
Ya ikr
Totally!!!
I'm 34 and introduced my oldest who is 12 to them, and he loves it. It made me way too emotional lol.
It's 2018 and I am turning 27. When I first heard this song in 2004 I was 13, literally half a lifetime away. Hearing this song again really bring me back. So much has changed and I really missed the days of being a carefree teen...
Totally.. I'm 25 and it's like where did the time go. So much has changed but it seems like it did in the blink of an eye. It's great how one song can bring back all those carefree feelings.
Im 27...same i was 13...and here i am lol..
2019 gonna be 25 -_-
@@taylorgriffing6384 Turning 26 next month...it doesn't get better fam
sooo true...
Remember being in highschool and begging for a way out? Good riddance to childhood, but being adult sucks too damn it
Sadly this is a huge mood
no I do not
Gock
Yeah, then found out that it sucks, but now I'm doing better than then
Yeah.. I actually planned to suicide when I was in middle school, life is still shitty but less shitty than my school times
2019 and I still haven't gotten out of here.
lol rite
*HHHHHHHHH GOTTA GET OUT OF HERE*
Halp
Waht
Same! Nearly 2020!
God was low-key hitting me with the gospel before I even knew him. I just thought it was a cool song back then lol
Also, love the ending (those last notes), on the album version!
How did you interpret it? I'm Christian too. The person he want his escape to be is Christ? Nice! Hostage of sin
@@ashleechan22 I thought it was about a girl naively lol. Listening to it as an adult I can hear the gospel undertones. It's so subtle honestly I may not have known if I didn't know they were Christian
Same :) Praise Jesus
God doesn't exist.
@Fuck Yeah Destroy Me why don't you let people believe what they want to believe. I don't believe in religion myself but nothing gives me the right to force my (non)beliefs down people's throat.
I'm 14 and never listened to music like this till my dad started playing reliant k and now I know every song and love them, I really hope they do one more tour so I can see them live!!
Touring again. See if it's near you
Your dad is a legend
Same thing
Your dad is the real MVP for introducing them to you. These rock music does not die they live on and passed on.
Your dad listens to chick music lol
I’m 65. This song was genius when I first heard it, still is today, and it is so reassuring to know that it reached so many young people with the message of God’s real love…
Randmly clicked on this song. Did not regret it. These lyrics cut right to my soul, haven't had a song describe my life so well in a long time.
You should definitely check out their other songs theres so many good ones
I kind of feel bad I missed out on this bad. Better late than never!
Holy fucking Shit...A tune I probably haven't heard in close to a decade....Nostalgia overload... When you're 34, your younger days have long since past...God this is literally physically painful nostalgia... ;_;
Just wait till we hit 84 or even 94 then we will really feel old, enjoy your youth man, take care of yourself and your body. Your only as old as you feel
1,000% understand what you’re feeling
Saw these guys live with Simple Plan and Good Charlotte...2005 Noise To The World Tour...I was 17 and had the time of my life..Front row, center...Pierre from Simple Plan climbed up on top of me during a song and used my arm to hold himself up over the crowd...What a concert...Ill never forget them slinging water bottles on the crowd and how refreshing it was inside that hot venue.
once in a lifetime homeboy
I listened to this song in middle school all the time & loved it, never knowing it was a Christian band. I’m still not religious & I’m sure I never will be but it’s a beautiful song & can speak to anyone, religious or not. This isn’t the type of music I listen to anymore too, but I still enjoy giving it a listen every few years when it pops into my mind.
My god almost 20 years and I still feel this song in my chest.
I remember listening to Relient K when I was 13-14 years old. This never gets old and still fits life now.
Yeah for sure.
PRAISE U LORD - U GOOD 4 ME :D
Amen!
It’s 2020, I’m an adult now. I was struggling so hard to remember the song name and who did it. Finally I gave up and tried to remember the feelings when first hearing this song as a kid, now here i am. Feeling lost, hurt, but trying to understand my situation and do better for myself and those involved
Being in quarantine like "Gotta get outta here and I'm begging you, I'm begging you to be my escape!"
At 19 when this came out I was into my punk rock/emo pop rock phase. This and something corporate, jacks mannican, sum 41, simple plan, blink 182, new found glory, etc. was my music of choice. Now hear i am jamming out to it once again with my 8yr old kid while I'm 38.
this song has so many memories. i still love this song and always will
Saaaammmmeeee! I saw them at Creation Fest NW so many years ago!
IF the dates are going right you might have 35+ thats my age when those hits make a boom.
35 yo now, 18 when i heard it in 2005.. When i feel sad alone and depressed i listen to this and it helps me keep going. Miss simpler times.
I’m 29 and this song is still just as nostalgic as it was when I was 12
Same ❤️
2:34-2:47 is a masterpiece. The transition from piano and violin to guitar is chills.
6th grade riding on the bus listening to this on iPod mini hit different
Since i was 14yrs old i always play this on DVD
But now im 32yrs old thanks to this song so memorable.
2023 say present!
This song randomly came up on Apple Music and it struck a massive nostalgic nerve. Literally haven’t heard this song in over 10 years.
"And the beauty of grace is that it makes life not fair" has stuck with me for the last 16 years. I was 13 when this song came out and I'm 29 now.
And amidst a really difficult situation, the Holy Spirit brought this particular lyric back to mind and MAN is it powerful. ❤️
Couldn't agree more dude.
Still listening to this in 2023
This song was so fun to play on the drums. Y’all drummers looking at this comment, try the song cause you’ll have so much fun playing the piece,
I can see it... But have you ever played Tom Sawyer or Spirit of the Radio
Thanks I've been looking for a song to cover with my friends, I'm a drummer
when I got my first kit ever this one on of the jammsss always
"The beauty of grace is that it makes life unfair." That's actually very true! Man, they don't write music like they used to!
The "locked in side the house while you hold the key, I've been dying to get out that might be the death of me" part hits different during covid 19 #quarantine era.....
back when i was in kindergarten, my dad would always play relient k in the car so this song and “who i am hates who i’ve been” give me a strong sense of comfort when i listen to them. i’m not that religious by any means but these songs remind of a simpler time, i’m 22 now and can finally relate to the lyrics and understand them.
Literally me
This song is the epitome of youth group music in the early 2000s
Ah... I recall relistening to this on repeat ... On end..
Yep.. Was crushing hard...
PRAISE HESUS
Almost 28 And it still puts me right back in that high school mentality. Thank you for this song, thank you for existing 💙 this was my escape!
Brenda where are you from?
Is that a good thing?
Hiiiiii brenda you still with us
I've given up on giving up slowly,
I'm blending in so you won't even know me
Apart from this whole world that shares my fate
This one last bullet you mention is my one last shot at redemption
Because I know to live you must give your life away
And I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity and
I've been locked inside that house all the while You hold the key
And I've been dying to get out and that might be the death of me
And even though, there's no way in knowing
Where to go, promise I'm going because
I gotta get outta here
I'm stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake
I gotta get outta here
And I'm begging you, I'm begging you, I'm begging you to be my escape.
I'm giving up on doing this alone now
'Cause I've failed and I'm ready to be shown how
He's told me the way and I'm trying to get there
And this life sentence that I'm serving
I admit that I'm every bit deserving
But the beauty of grace is that it makes life not fair
'Cause I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity and
I've been locked inside that house all the while you hold the key
And I've been dying to get out and that might be the death of me
And even though, there's no way in knowing
Where to go, promise I'm going because
I gotta get outta here
'Cause I'm afraid that this complacency is something I can't shake
I gotta get outta here
And I'm begging you, I'm begging you, I'm begging You to be my escape.
I am a hostage to my own humanity
Self detained and forced to live in this mess I've made
And all I'm asking is for you to do what You can with me
But I can't ask You to give what You already gave
'Cause I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity and
I've been locked inside that house all the while you hold the key
And I've been dying to get out and that might be the death of me
And even though, there's no way in knowing
Where to go, promise I'm going because
I've gotta get outta here
I'm stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake
I've gotta get outta here
And I'm begging you, I'm begging you, I'm begging you to be my escape.
I fought you for so long
I should have let you in
Oh how we regret those things we do
And all I was trying to do was save my own skin
But so were you
So were you
Radio commercial free.. Christian radio station. It's Was a good one Darius Tucker mercy me relient k Tim mcgraw and many more..
Gock
And all Ron Paul was trying to do was save his own kind, but so were You, so were You.
@@e-TheWatchman this comment for the win!
Im just gonna leave a comment here for next time i need the lyrics
i miss my teenage years so darn much
I haven't heard this song in ten years. I stumbled onto this by accident, looking for different lyrics.
I had completely forgotten about it; chokes me up hearing it again. This song helped me hold on through some dark times, and now I feel like I've found a long lost friend again.
Thank you for posting! :3
This song was mildly interesting to me when I was younger, and now as an adult, it's my anthem. I don't think I'll ever not love it.
I had the NTWICM 19 album with this song when I was a child. This takes me back for real.
Wow, the nostalgia. I remember having such a hard time many years ago in college, and Relient K really helped me pull through. Fell even more in love when I found out they were a Christian band. Love their songs so much!
"This life sentence that I'm serving I admit that I'm every bit deserving, but the beauty of grace is that it makes life not fair."
I love this line! I keep replaying this part, because it makes me so happy! Each time I hear my smile gets bigger, and my eyes start to fill with tears.
It's the greatest thing knowing that no matter how many times I mess up, that God still loves and forgives me.
So thank you Relient K for this reminder, because sometimes I think we all need a reminder.
Faithe Hamm it was good until you had to bring religion into it :T
@@avam6080 Did you... listen to the song? The singer is singing to God.
Jake Hayes yeah. it could've been about anything.
@@avam6080 boy, its a gospel lol, that line confirms it, plus the end... Pretty much the whole song
Hi
I’m 33 for some reason feels wild to me I can go multiple years with out listening to rk. Put on a album and rock out/ sing all the somgs and have it give me shivers! praise God❤️
Amen!
Praise your ass 😂
@@andrew1745 god bless you
Dad played Reliant K when we would drive back from church at night in his manual stick little black Miata I’m now 19 and remembered Reliant K and goodness gracious my freshman year of high school when I was the most anxious Reliant K was my go to group to listen to. Thanks dad.
I'm 16 years old, I wasn't even alive when this masterpiece came out
My wife and I connected through this band! 😂 we can’t wait to see them live
17 years later and I randomly remembered this song. This used to be one of my all time favorites
I used to mis-hear the line "Housing all this doubt" as "How's it gonna stop" for some reason. But then when I found out what the line actually was, it made the "Locked inside that house" line so much less potent. Locking yourself inside a house physically just strikes me as more relatable than locked inside a figurative one.
I swear I'll be listening to this song when I'm 70.
Was listening to Machine gun kelly's love race and I immediately thought of this song.
heard this song when i got my driving license and i kept running this song and "who i am hates who ive been" all the time. i got to know my girlfriend then and my wife now. oh man, i was so in love with her am im still. thank you for all the good memories relient k!
This song is forever a safe space
The man who inspired it is also one. Just saying, don't mean any offense.
Having not heard this in a decade, then hearing that MGK song, brought me back here. Still better.
we used to listen to this song at the beginning of our relationship almost exactly 3 years ago. it's our song, we broke up yesterday. I hope I still can fix it.. i don't want 3 amazing years to be thrown away.
but i still want to thank you relient k
I dont remember hearing this but it gives me 2000's nostalgia
lmao same, like someone elses memories popping into my head.
Probably cuz it’s a Christian rock band
37yo and I was listening to this and slipknot and hatebreed in the same playlist back in the day🤘
Christian Music, it still raises praise in me…
Amen!
MGK's new song love race sounds just like this
He gave them credit on the song actually
@@onlyghostyks clean your ears and listen again
I came to find this song on CZcams because I just heard Love Race and it instantly brought me back to this song
Damn u beat me to it lmao
Here for the same reason
Machine Gun Kelly and Kellin Quinn's new song "love race" sounds pretty close to this
July, 2023. I get it now. And I need someone to help me escape my own life because I can't do it by myself anymore. I thought I had to do everything by myself and now I need someone else to help bring in my new life I want for myself. Truly a humbling reality
Amen!
The beauty of grace is that it makes life not fair.
Not religious, and I'm still screaming this through my hard times.
God loves you ❤️
@@jonah6893amen 🙏
@@jonah6893 Rude.
@@m.h.lockesteppe9834 God loves you too ❤️
I've been going crazy because I've tried so hard to remember the name of this song and the name of who singed it, but today I finally remembered some lyrics, I'm so happy right now lol ♡♡♡
Easiest way for me to get back to my Favourite Relient K songs is just by searching the Mmhmm album.
Just listening right now... Damn i know somewhere i hear this song a long time ago, i found it once again 😊
I remember when I was 8 years old listening to relient k while playing WoW
0:25 Best start in a song ever! 2019 anyone?
Aahh my teenage years! Its 2019 and listening to this still makes me so happy
Most people are here from nostalgia but this video just kept coming up in my recommendations 😅 i was probably like 2 years old when this song came out.... its amazing though
I haven't heard this song in 10 years.... Let me tell you it aged like wine
I finally did it!! Yes, I did escape and I am SO HAPPY!!
I used to listen to your music, I then forgot your band name after awhile....I saw a video on my recommended playlist, Relient K? I was pretty sure I knew them...When I went into your music, I started to remember that I used to listen to this music, especially the song who am I hates who I've been. I'm glad I have found them again....
I'm surprised I still remember all the lyrics after all these years
i love this community of comments. i first listened to this i think i was 11 now i’m 31 😱 i used to lovvvvve this song (still do) my black parents thought I was crazy lol. i make music now and this song randomly just inspired me to make a new song …. love how this memory was unlocked
i’m typing this as i’m listening and HOLY SHIZZ I FORGOT HOW MUCH I LOVE THE OUTRO
My 20 yr younger than me co worker turned me onto this song love it , im a BLS HEAD!!!
I knew i've heard Love race before xD
This one of my favorite songs back when I was 5th grade!!!!
I've all but abandoned all the things I did and listened to when I was a Catholic kid, but Relient K gets to stay 😌
Saw these guys live back in 05 I think, they opened for Simple Plan and Good Charlotte in Springfield Missouri. Probably one of the best concerts I went to in high school.
I love how relient k has actual words in their lyrics, its one of the main reasons I love their songs.
You must love a lot of songs then.
Huh
? I don’t understand this comment ... most songs have actual words lmao
Amanda Benincasaaa
They mean the words have purpose, they mean something other than to sound good, making it a truly good song
@@SourceCod33 They must not listen to a lot of music because there's a ton of music out there with meaningful lyrics and good messages. Especially in the rock/metal/metalcore genres.
Remember when this was a music video on Cartoon Network with Ed Edd and Eddy?? o did I dream it?
lol what XDD
What?
I'm guessing you dreamed it. Good show
LMAOOOO
Different song, but you reminded me of it, and I can't in good conscience let ya think you're crazy or dreaming. Part of the lyrics were like, "is this a clean shirt? I think I wore this one yesterday. I'm not comin' back, anymore~. Got everything I want and need, right outside this door. I'm not comin' back, anymore, etc." They were like... bustin' out a dollhouse, or something? I think that's what you remember.
im as atheist as they come. never realized these guys were a christian group! fantastic music!
This is christian Rock?? I thought it mightve been but i had no idea..
@@bryceskinner564 yes indeed!
Ah yes it’s 2004. I’m in 7th grade listening to this song while playing games on my computer. Life was good.
I’m here because graveweaver said this was her song for chase, and I guess we can’t argue with her word
omg- me too-
graveweaver gang rise up
Same
same
Well graveweaver is a nice type of special
Okay wow this does fit chase’s personality. The creator of I’m the grim reaper said this would be his theme song.
You know this is a Christian song right?
Jesus Christ loves you. All I want to say.
love this song. listened when I was a young teen-ager. now it's 2017 and I still love it.
2019, turning 24 and still enjoy listening to this!
Omg me too im 23 and turning 24 in october. I remember this song from when I was small.
This song vibes different in lockdown
Wanting relient k to be in the When We Were Young festival 2022
I'm 31... glad i grew up with this music!!
Mgk put these guys in the writing credits for one of his new songs didn’t he?
Yup Love Race bc it has the same chord progression
Your music saved me from suicide
I find Jesus and Mary&Joseph in your sounds
Reliant K, Switchfoot, Superchick 🙌🏻 some of my faves!🎸
It's been a long time since I've listened to this song. Lately I feel like I've been needing to hear it.
Wow, I haven’t heard this song in years! Since I was in high school, actually. It just popped up in my CZcams recommendations and I’m so glad it did. 😁
Also, I realized that I can still sing every word by heart.
0:17 left right left right left right left right left right left right left right
People who use earphones while listening to this would understand 😂
First heard this music back when I was 16 back in 2006. . . now I'm 32 and hearing it again is exactly what I needed! Love the messages! 🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏🌷🌷🌷🌌🌌🌌💜💜💜
Heard this in the liquor store today and brought me back to watching the music video after school in like 4th-5th grade. Still an amazing song, and so distinct 💯
