I went to school with these boys. I am nothing but happy that they are doing so well. I remember looking at the lead singer standing on a rock in the shitty quad we had, just looking up to the sky. We went to 4 rainbow shows that year.
The lead singer is undoubtedly one of my favorite person on earth. I can't believe someone so beautiful can exist. My heart cries happy sad tears whenever he sings
Lyrics~ My heart and soul were never mine to own What you care to die for? What you care to die for? We die alone, we'll all die young What you care to die for? What you care to die from? Snow, snow glistens on the ledge, whiskey on the ledge Shake it out and light a cigarette Miss me when you, you wish you weren't right Shake me all out if I'm wrong, for you, for you Shake it all out when I'm gone, I, for you Is the devil so bad if he cries in his sleep, while the earth turns And his kids learned to say, "fuck you", they don't love you Does the devil get scared if she dies in her dreams, while the earth burns? She cries 'cause she's nothing like you, is she like you? What you want from a devil like me, devil like me? You see the devil don't mean to be evil He just regrettably forgets to exceed expectation Holes riddled in your head, little bit of lead Shake it out and line silhouette Miss me when you, you wish weren't kind of glad Shake me all out when you're done, for you, for you Shake it all out when I'm gone, I, for you Is the devil so bad if he cries in his sleep, while the earth turns And his kids learned to say, "fuck you", they don't love you Does the devil get scared if she dies in her dreams, while the earth burns? She cries cause she's nothing like you, is she like you? What do you want from a devil like me, am I like you?
This album was on repeat for months during a really dark time a few years ago, I couldn't listen to it because it reminded me of that time too much but 3 years has gone by and I'm able to listen to it again
I totally forget, that I have been here before in the past, but the like button speaks clearly. I just experienced listening this song for the first time again! What a great day to be alive, even when the earth burns. I just want to tell you, stranger, that I like you ❤
This song touches my heart deeply, it makes me feel a certain way, not really happy, or sad, or anything I can describe, it makes me feel like I want to cry but it also makes me want to smile and laugh, this band is so amazing and I love them, thank all of you for making this masterpiece of a band
I'm Nigerian. We aren't big on alternative genre's but I've always being a lover of this kind of alte genre! I'm glad I found this music! I've been vibing on it since.
My English teacher got me hooked on this band, this band is how he met is wife, it’s his favorite band and she was wearing a RKS Tee. Next thing you know they have kids, successful jobs, and still crank the he’ll out of RKS! Now one of my favorite bands as well.
"The devil doesn't mean to be evil, he just regrettably forgets to exceed expectations" I don't know why but I love this lyric so much. I also love the song, the whole feel of it is wonderful along with the video.
I think he's referring to his devil, the devil in him. Being an addict you don't want or intend to hurt others and you think why is everyone so sad I'm only hitting myself but when u aren't the u that maybe u could be or deserve to be without substances in the picture it hurts those who love and care about u the most, so that's the devil in me, that's how I see it
I’m 38 from the ghetto grew up poor around gangs and drugs and death most people can never understand I grew up listening to 90 rap never thought I’d be bumping something like this but art is art and I feel this song in my soul🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Been going through a lot. Not being able to be in my little man’s everyday life. Having the person I considered closest to me flip a switch and just treat me like I’ve never meant anything to her. Replaced me with the first guy who didn’t ghost her within a week of kicking me out… I can’t thank this band enough for coming into my life at the right time. It was a dark 7 months, and somehow this music has brought a sense of peace I haven’t had in what feels like forever.
Bro I feel you. Went through almost the same thing although my take is a little darker (maybe yours is too and maybe u just keeping your darkness to yourself). It’s hard, still hard. But time propels us onward and we have no choice but to move forward.
Ngl if you let 300 strangers a week in your car straight out of bars and off the street it's gonna be hard to keep it pristine without harsh chemicals. Crack a window and be thankful.
I expected some type of shitty screamo from your name, but I think you chose this name solely to teach people not to judge a book by it's cover, cause you guys are now my favorite band.
Apparently the name came from a friend of band's who gave the name while he was on heavy amounts of post surgery morphine and they decided let's use it
@@thecrematedkitten8810 Yeah, they said in an interview that their friend said those three things were the three nicest things in the world: Rainbows, kittens and surprises :)
This song, this band, and this video have my love. This is the best music I've listened to in a while. The video is absolutely lovely, and complements both the band and the song. I hope that you guys make it big, because you really deserve it.
"What you want from a devil like me, devil like me?" Best part of the song. The way he sings it makes my heart flutter every time i hear it. Here's to 10th time ive left this song in repeat.
they are even better in concert like way better than any big name bands ive seen (ive seen about 30) and these guys just are amazing live and sound even better which i just dont get and dont want to know, only thing i want to know is when they come back around cause im going to every concert near me lol
I first listened to their music in 2019 and i am so happy that they got more (much deserved) attention over the last few years. RKS helped me through the pandemic, the worst times of my life, and where still on my headphones in the best parts of my life. Truly amazing music
this song has a special place in my heart, i used to listen to it a lot at my very lowest with a person i knew back then, this person is not in my life anymore. every time i listen to this song i feel like i cant breath i guess its a feeling that i can’t explain i just love this song.
I’ve been through the most horrific indescribable things. This song encapsulates how I feel. The depression and anxiety are putting me through hell. I can’t seem to get past the trauma that happened to me as a child, it completely shaped my brain and life for the worse. I’m a 22 year old dude now and to be honest suffering is all I’ve ever known. The loneliness is slowly turning into hate and bitterness which I know only makes me a worse person. I just can’t seem to stop it. Like I’ve never had nobody so I just rot away in my bedroom, I couldn’t tell you the last time I touched another human it’s been many years. I’m trying to do good but it never feels like enough. The constant dissociation has a way of numbing me to the good stuff. Man I feel ridiculous writing this however at the same time I don’t care because what have I got to lose… nothing.
I understand this. Though I’m considerably older than you, I’ve been through quite a bit as well and I realize how debilitating depression and anxiety can be. Medication has helped me some in coping. Therapy can also help greatly. It’s awesome and brave of you to share here what you’re experiencing. I think if more people were open and vulnerable about how they really feel and what they deal with, it can also help a lot of other people feel not so alone in their struggles. Hang in there man and hopefully you can get connected with a counselor or something for some additional sources to help! You’re still young with your whole life ahead of you and things CAN and WILL get better! It just takes time and effort. Don’t give up! Wishing you the best! ❤
I know people are commenting a bunch of different things and how amazing this band because of how unique this band's name is, this song speaks to an addict, as someone who is an alcoholic struggling to kick this addiction in the butt, it really speaks to you, the lyrics, melody, tone of the song...its heart wrenching really, and i dont expect anyone to understand other than the ones struggling the same situation, please comment and talk to me, i'd appreciate it, it'd help, and im sure this would help others...i sometimes hate myself
@Sea Spear I still visit this song and thought I lost my RUclips account, fun to find this after randomly listening to it, I still struggle. "The devil doesn't mean to be evil but he regrettably forget to exceed expections" I'm the devil , and I don't mean to be evil, I just don't mean to live up to others requests and expectations, my depression gets the best of me, as much of me that wants to change, it's hard, I regrettably forget to exceed the expectation of bettering myself for others
With this comment I can already tell you are too good to hate yourself but also know you are to aware to not know people could always be better. Know that we all think that (assuming all people are inherently good but may have lost their way) but you are obviously caring and observant of emotional beings and that is a burden. That burden means you are stricken with a lot on your plate and probably care more about people around you than yourself. In your small comment I can tell you care too much and in this world that will make you feel small. Your words are so beautifully authentic that I would get aggressively supportive about how hating yourself is the opposite of the gift you obviously give to the beauty you see and you deserve to know you are too.
Seriously hope you guys havnt given up. Straight up my favorite band since i found you guys on spotify a few weeks ago. Keep playing shows, and hopefully you can end up coming down to Florida!
I heard this song for the first time last week riding in a buddy's car in Austin Tx. I don't know if it was the pot cookie I ate earlier that day or just this dude's voice but I definitely was brought to tears by this song. I said the exact same thing to my buddy at the time, his voice touched my soul...
My heart and soul were never mine to own, what you care to die for? What you care to die for? We die alone, we'll all die young, what you care to die for? What you care to die from? Snow glistens on the ledge, whiskey on the bed, shake it out and light a cigarette Miss me when you, you wish you weren't right Shake me all out if I'm wrong, for you, for you Shake it all out when I'm gone, I, for you Is the devil so bad if he cries in his sleep, while the earth turns And his kids learned to say, fuck you they don't, love you Does the devil get scared if she dies in her dreams, where the earth burns She cries cause she's nothing like you, is she like you? What you want from a devil like me, devil like me? You see the devil don't mean to be evil, he just regrettably forgets to exceed expectation Holes riddled in your head, little bit of lead, shake it out and line silhouette Miss me when you, you wish weren't kind of glad Shake me all out when you're done, for you, for you Shake it all out when I'm gone, I, for you Is the devil so bad if he cries in his sleep, while the earth turns And his kids learned to say, fuck you they don't, love you Does the devil get scared if she dies in her dreams, where the earth burns She cries cause she's nothing like you, is she like you? What do you want from a devil like me, am I like you?
Damn, this song has everything. I love the rhythm, the lyrics, music, vocals, and even the look (video suits it perfectly). Glad to have stumbled on it.
I'm on my uncle's accout right now. Anyway i met these guys at a place called the blind tiger, my father was with me, he's gone now. Yet again anyways they were awesome, i got along great with them. Downright cool dudes. That name and that night will forever be one of the most remarkable for me...
When this song FINALLY came on during their set, I about lost my shit. They didn't play American Hero, but they gave so much energy, and his dance moves were just fantastic. Do not pass up an opportunity to see them live!
i know y’all are probably never going to read this but it’s worth it anyways. you guys have helped me through so much and being a musician myself, i appreciate you guys so much. keep making amazing music and i love you 💜
Absolutely fantastic song! The album in it's entirety is brilliant! kinda wish I hadn't heard of RKS until they had like 5 albums just so I can hear a lot more all at once :-)
When I listen to this my entire body shudder with chills and my mind calms. From the moment I heard it the first time it became one of my calm songs for when I get overwhelmed. I listen to it a lot and it's one of the greatest comfort songs I know.
I will always dedicate this song to the father of my youngest daughter whom I've loved so much. We've been through hell battling drug addiction together. And I always play this song everytime I feel miserable and high which was every single day. It was a scary place for me. I crawled out of addiction and built myself into recovery. Now, I'm sober but sadly, I needed to leave him because he's still the same. Our hearts are full of anger right now. I know he hates me for leaving him hanging but I need to save myself to be a better person and mom for our kid. He's been saying I'm like a devil and how evil I am for doing that to him. And I always go back to this song. RV, wherever you are right now, I still hope you can get out of that darkness. I'm sorry but I can't hurt myself like that anymore. I've been through a lot from you. I will never get tired of praying for you and wishing you'll be better. Andi misses you so much. She will always love her daddy.
Apart from the explicit theme in the video 'Alcoholism', the beauty of this song lies in the fact it can be interpreted to many meanings, depending on the listener and their standpoint. It can even be even brought down to its literal interpretation about the Devil. Come to think about it, the Devil didn't mean to be evil in the first place, and He did fail to exceed the expectation it was set for him, "the perfect true agent of God." ( I came to this interpretation as i was traveling by train while listening to this song lol.. It really made me think.)
Lucifer A.K.A. PhospHORUS redeemed us from perfection so that we could know the left from the right and the first one bearing the Light to descend in order to create this place "outside of G*d". The Grand Experiment a place we come to know ourselves not as One . Where reality is an agreement and your personality (personal reality) is entangled/entranced by the duality of Maya...
Dude, I'm in love with this song, can't get it out of my head yet. You know I'm betting on you since you got all your ideas in your head, Sam. You're gonna make it big. #RKS #GRANDE!
"Devil Like Me" My heart and soul were never mine to own What you care to die for? What you care to die for? We die alone, we'll all die young What you care to die for? What you care to die from?

She cries cause she's nothing like you, is she like you? What you want from a devil like me, devil like me? You see the devil don't mean to be evil, he just regrettably forgets to exceed expectation Holes riddled in your head, little bit of lead Shake it out and line silhouette Miss me when you, you wish weren't kind of glad Shake me all out when you're done, for you, for you Shake it all out when I'm gone, I, for you Is the devil so bad if he cries in his sleep, while the earth turns And his kids learned to say, fuck you they don't, love you Does the devil get scared if she dies in her dreams, where the earth burns?

Completely irrelevant but Your family/last name evokes memories of the second year of sixth grade (Trisha Horvath) and the 2nd time my mind magnetically charged, no hold, caught in gravitational pull, around Her in space suspending thoughts, mine orbit. An other's Love I'd absorb it. Any other's Love a scorn-pit. Another Love , thorns hit! ^Out of cage, *I'll break^ ribs* & Side Split! Man marriage may be mad for meh health. Might maybe marry Myself. Maybe making me Somebody else. Might be taking my wealth. like look , a lot a lead . Light lost, allot of dead. Left Hook, I ought a lead. Straight left, no need. Strafe right She said and leave all that lead with the dead.She's in My Head and thinks to get me out the bed.
someone recommended me this band in freshman year 5 years ago now, me being one of those kids, I heard the name and never gave the band a second thought. I wish I would've pushed past that because I can't imagine the person I'd be with music like this.
Accidentally stumbled upon this in Spotify a few days ago like most of them ones who commented. Got to say, instantly loved it. Glad I stumbled upon you. Despite what others say, I actually like 'Rainbow Kitten Surprise'... sounds like some sort of rainbow colored candy that magically rains glowing rainbow kittens from the sky every time you suck on it.
I found you guys mid peak of an intense lsd trip and had the whole mood of my trip change the most orgasmic colors and feeling of not being alone overcame me and i never not feel alone thank you guys so much for being a thing of pure bliss and raw emotion
Rainbow Kitten Surprise! Take that dope logo of yours and make some merchandise! I need a t-shirt STAT. It can help me start some conversations about you guys too!
Goin thru it, losing my kid , ex moving across the globe after 10yrs of using me . Stealing my only reason to live right out from under me. This song plays on repeat in my head..
Finally found a comment I can relate to... On going battle with a "cult" covert narcissist .. soon to be.. ex husband and his covert narcissist mom.... have a 3 year old in the middle and they lie and ... it is all just some really sick stuff... I sit with it and do my best... His mom is so much of it... Sad thing is I will never know if he knows her lies or if they set me up.. again.. but it wouldn't matter, he lies too... just alot of loaded betrayal and sick stuff... anyway, point is you're not alone... Stay with me and don't give up.... for your child, but for yourself too. We deserve peace. If not now, in our life sometime, we deserve real true peace... even if we are alone on our own... People are sick..... bless u... sorry for ur struggles....
Oh and point of relating to this song..... His mom said I was the devil and did the devils work.. they have justified their actions and if they couldn't, made me a liar... It is so much.. Thier true self was shown to me and no one else had ever seen it.. His mom wants her son and our daughter to her own.. It sounds insane bc it is.. It is too much. If someone reads this and wants to know more just ask... bc it is good for me to talk about it, but then it starts messing with my nerves and now I will just wait. Maybe someone will see this and need it in thier life.. Covert narcissism is real and sick. Sociopathic, brainwashing.... manipulation and leaves you empty. Ironically, I found myself in the sick maddness. I accept who I am, my past and all. Bc I don't have to hide who I am and I dont care if everyone likes me or not. I know I am kind and genuine. And they made me out to be a monster and unfit mother bc of what they were doing.. but they do no wrong. They are RIGHT. About everything... Man my brain... ok I'm done now I guess.... yeah gotta stop thinking about it now.
Song to me is a small anthem.. calling me a devil and horrible things... well I'm not like you. I am a human being with feelings and emotions. Am I devil bc I am human and I dont try to be something I'm not. I am not what you say.... so make a mockery of me in that sick little community and call me whatever you want to. just shake me all out when your done. Am I like you... No. And I never ever want to be. And my daughter will not be stunted and caged in that small community of masked sickness... or exiled by YOUR will.. YOUR WILL you claim is the God you worship.. No it is YOUR will. Just exile your loved ones for your own gain to keep your perfect image.... dont see how you sit in church... justify and forget what you want to .. SICK and INHUMAN ...... you're the devil for what you do and have done. Dress up and go sit in church...... Like you said, you know where youre going when you die.. bc you do the lord's work... wow.. just wowowowoww at life and humans.... I dont want to go to your perfect heaven....
Excellent song fellas! On a personal note I used to drink that Old Crow Bourbon whiskey... Now just smelling sour mash even in recipes turns my stomach. Needless to say I definitely do not miss those days 😅
your singing is so relaxing , i’ve been obsessed for a few months , not stopped listening since , keep doing what your doing cos i absolutely love it♥️♥️♥️

This is soul medicine. I hope we all heal from the things we don't speak of.
Speaking about those things is how I heal. Also songs like this I can't believe I'm just hearing in 2024
I can't believe he cheated on me 9 months pregnant 😢 crying to comments on RKS videos. . Thank you 🥺
All heals that does feel
I speak a lot. I like being heard.
When I’m not being quiet and sleeping 14 hours a night.
I went to school with these boys. I am nothing but happy that they are doing so well. I remember looking at the lead singer standing on a rock in the shitty quad we had, just looking up to the sky. We went to 4 rainbow shows that year.

I was at App State when they were too. Pretty damn cool.
no you didnt
He did im the kitten @@johnnyringo2695
The lead singer is undoubtedly one of my favorite person on earth. I can't believe someone so beautiful can exist. My heart cries happy sad tears whenever he sings
Lyrics~ My heart and soul were never mine to own
What you care to die for?
What you care to die for?
We die alone, we'll all die young
What you care to die for?
What you care to die from?
Snow, snow glistens on the ledge, whiskey on the ledge
Shake it out and light a cigarette
Miss me when you, you wish you weren't right
Shake me all out if I'm wrong, for you, for you
Shake it all out when I'm gone, I, for you
Is the devil so bad if he cries in his sleep, while the earth turns
And his kids learned to say, "fuck you", they don't love you
Does the devil get scared if she dies in her dreams, while the earth burns?
She cries 'cause she's nothing like you, is she like you?
What you want from a devil like me, devil like me?
You see the devil don't mean to be evil
He just regrettably forgets to exceed expectation
Holes riddled in your head, little bit of lead
Shake it out and line silhouette
Miss me when you, you wish weren't kind of glad
Shake me all out when you're done, for you, for you
Shake it all out when I'm gone, I, for you
Is the devil so bad if he cries in his sleep, while the earth turns
And his kids learned to say, "fuck you", they don't love you
Does the devil get scared if she dies in her dreams, while the earth burns?
She cries cause she's nothing like you, is she like you?
What do you want from a devil like me, am I like you?
Thank you! ♡

Thank you, had to restart the song when I reached your post
This album was on repeat for months during a really dark time a few years ago, I couldn't listen to it because it reminded me of that time too much but 3 years has gone by and I'm able to listen to it again
Same here! Glad you’re able to listen again and *hopefully* enjoy it!
That same thing happened with Soulfight by the Revivalists. It was my fave song when i was a heroin addict and 22 yrs old
@@spencerlane4781 keep doing good brother.
They have helped me so much🖤
I live in that dark phase. Permanently. Be grateful for the little things.
Just found this song and it felt like coming home. That's the best way I can explain it.
Thank the lord for Spotify's discover weekly for helping me find this band
+Peyton Haley It's in mine for this week too! Discover Weekly (and this music) is the greatest thing to ever happen to me lol
hahah thats how I found them too
Dude yes. I'm still blown away this only has 127k views

No kidding. This one and Freefall
Same here I love this bands music
This song touches my heart deeply, it makes me feel a certain way, not really happy, or sad, or anything I can describe, it makes me feel like I want to cry but it also makes me want to smile and laugh, this band is so amazing and I love them, thank all of you for making this masterpiece of a band
Absolutely
My friend introduced me to this group 3 years ago, we met then as well. She has cancer now and every RKS song reminds me of her. Prayers for Scarlett
I'm Nigerian. We aren't big on alternative genre's but I've always being a lover of this kind of alte genre! I'm glad I found this music! I've been vibing on it since.
I needed this band ten years ago
Hope your doing well now. Keep your head up and stay groovin!
Who is still listening to this gem? I would love to shake every person's hand in this band for all the great music
This band is emotion embodied in sound
Mo The Adventurer you should get high and listen to them its just perfect.
@@naomialv6386 excellent idea!
Already did that mate, it works@@naomialv6386
Weird how so much entertainment can come from a damn song
Mo the Adventurer with the music video aside what is your interpretation of what this song is about ? I'd like to get your opinion on this.
My English teacher got me hooked on this band, this band is how he met is wife, it’s his favorite band and she was wearing a RKS Tee. Next thing you know they have kids, successful jobs, and still crank the he’ll out of RKS! Now one of my favorite bands as well.
"The devil doesn't mean to be evil, he just regrettably forgets to exceed expectations"
I don't know why but I love this lyric so much.
I also love the song, the whole feel of it is wonderful along with the video.
I love this lyric too
Same. It’s my favorite lyric of probably all their songs.
But that is not true the devil is evil intentionally.
Devil comes to kill steal an destroy lol
I think he's referring to his devil, the devil in him. Being an addict you don't want or intend to hurt others and you think why is everyone so sad I'm only hitting myself but when u aren't the u that maybe u could be or deserve to be without substances in the picture it hurts those who love and care about u the most, so that's the devil in me, that's how I see it
I’m 38 from the ghetto grew up poor around gangs and drugs and death most people can never understand I grew up listening to 90 rap never thought I’d be bumping something like this but art is art and I feel this song in my soul🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
anthony macias feel you
Amen brotha
Been going through a lot. Not being able to be in my little man’s everyday life. Having the person I considered closest to me flip a switch and just treat me like I’ve never meant anything to her. Replaced me with the first guy who didn’t ghost her within a week of kicking me out…
I can’t thank this band enough for coming into my life at the right time. It was a dark 7 months, and somehow this music has brought a sense of peace I haven’t had in what feels like forever.
🖤
Bro I feel you. Went through almost the same thing although my take is a little darker (maybe yours is too and maybe u just keeping your darkness to yourself). It’s hard, still hard. But time propels us onward and we have no choice but to move forward.
Thank you, Uber driver, for playing this song in your smelly car. 4 stars:)
How did it smell?
Ngl if you let 300 strangers a week in your car straight out of bars and off the street it's gonna be hard to keep it pristine without harsh chemicals. Crack a window and be thankful.
5 stars cuz how good the band is
Least you got a ride buds
4 wtf 😒 why not 5
So hauntingly beautiful. Can't stop listening.
I'm sooooo happy. to of had such a beautiful soul show me this band. I'll be forever grateful....💙
I expected some type of shitty screamo from your name, but I think you chose this name solely to teach people not to judge a book by it's cover, cause you guys are now my favorite band.
Nice comment. This band is rad.
Apparently the name came from a friend of band's who gave the name while he was on heavy amounts of post surgery morphine and they decided let's use it
@@thecrematedkitten8810 Yeah, they said in an interview that their friend said those three things were the three nicest things in the world: Rainbows, kittens and surprises :)
yeah and you know damn well theyd be more recognized had they chose a different name. like caamp hahah. They wanted it this way, clearly
Omg I just thought this.
Sorry it took me so long to respond,,, thanks for writing me the song. ---bless---
This song, this band, and this video have my love. This is the best music I've listened to in a while. The video is absolutely lovely, and complements both the band and the song. I hope that you guys make it big, because you really deserve it.
Wow thanks! We sincerely appreciate that!
Rainbow Kitten Surprise me to
they didn't. but they deserve it.
Alexis Schwiebert it's Elayna C song.

I forgot about this gorgeous song! I used to play it on repeat non stop for weeks on end. It never ever gets old.
Samesies!!!
"What you want from a devil like me, devil like me?" Best part of the song. The way he sings it makes my heart flutter every time i hear it. Here's to 10th time ive left this song in repeat.
Alexus Stubblefield could you please suggest me similar songs or artists?
So so soooooo beautiful and alluring. Again and Again.. Thank you RKS!
This song came up in spotify and I've listened to it a few times daily since then, keep it up.
they are even better in concert like way better than any big name bands ive seen (ive seen about 30) and these guys just are amazing live and sound even better which i just dont get and dont want to know, only thing i want to know is when they come back around cause im going to every concert near me lol
are you still listening to them?
I first listened to their music in 2019 and i am so happy that they got more (much deserved) attention over the last few years.
RKS helped me through the pandemic, the worst times of my life, and where still on my headphones in the best parts of my life. Truly amazing music
you guys are my ABSOLUTE favorite band and i died inside when i saw you were on tour, see you in 2 months
this song has a special place in my heart, i used to listen to it a lot at my very lowest with a person i knew back then, this person is not in my life anymore. every time i listen to this song i feel like i cant breath i guess its a feeling that i can’t explain
i just love this song.
I’ve been through the most horrific indescribable things. This song encapsulates how I feel.
The depression and anxiety are putting me through hell. I can’t seem to get past the trauma that happened to me as a child, it completely shaped my brain and life for the worse.
I’m a 22 year old dude now and to be honest suffering is all I’ve ever known. The loneliness is slowly turning into hate and bitterness which I know only makes me a worse person. I just can’t seem to stop it.
Like I’ve never had nobody so I just rot away in my bedroom, I couldn’t tell you the last time I touched another human it’s been many years.
I’m trying to do good but it never feels like enough. The constant dissociation has a way of numbing me to the good stuff.
Man I feel ridiculous writing this however at the same time I don’t care because what have I got to lose… nothing.
You gotta put yourself out there bud. You're a good looking dude, so it shouldn't be hard.
@@S0B3RDAD thank you I appreciate the kindness 💙
@@zackfranklin6912 cheers mate, I appreciate it 💙
I understand this. Though I’m considerably older than you, I’ve been through quite a bit as well and I realize how debilitating depression and anxiety can be. Medication has helped me some in coping. Therapy can also help greatly. It’s awesome and brave of you to share here what you’re experiencing. I think if more people were open and vulnerable about how they really feel and what they deal with, it can also help a lot of other people feel not so alone in their struggles. Hang in there man and hopefully you can get connected with a counselor or something for some additional sources to help! You’re still young with your whole life ahead of you and things CAN and WILL get better! It just takes time and effort. Don’t give up! Wishing you the best! ❤
Thanks for writing this comment. ❤ I feel the same way.
I know people are commenting a bunch of different things and how amazing this band because of how unique this band's name is, this song speaks to an addict, as someone who is an alcoholic struggling to kick this addiction in the butt, it really speaks to you, the lyrics, melody, tone of the song...its heart wrenching really, and i dont expect anyone to understand other than the ones struggling the same situation, please comment and talk to me, i'd appreciate it, it'd help, and im sure this would help others...i sometimes hate myself
Hey how are you? If you're still into this song I'd be interested in hearing more about what it means to you
@Sea Spear I still visit this song and thought I lost my RUclips account, fun to find this after randomly listening to it, I still struggle. "The devil doesn't mean to be evil but he regrettably forget to exceed expections" I'm the devil , and I don't mean to be evil, I just don't mean to live up to others requests and expectations, my depression gets the best of me, as much of me that wants to change, it's hard, I regrettably forget to exceed the expectation of bettering myself for others
With this comment I can already tell you are too good to hate yourself but also know you are to aware to not know people could always be better. Know that we all think that (assuming all people are inherently good but may have lost their way) but you are obviously caring and observant of emotional beings and that is a burden. That burden means you are stricken with a lot on your plate and probably care more about people around you than yourself. In your small comment I can tell you care too much and in this world that will make you feel small. Your words are so beautifully authentic that I would get aggressively supportive about how hating yourself is the opposite of the gift you obviously give to the beauty you see and you deserve to know you are too.
so grateful to RUclips suggestions showing me Freefall three years ago. This has become the only band I really listen to.❤
Took almost 10 years for RUclips algorithms to push you in my suggestions list.
Was about time...
Sobering video & stellar music....Nice work
Brently with the music video aside what is your interpretation of what this song is about ? I'd like to get your opinion on this.
Seriously hope you guys havnt given up. Straight up my favorite band since i found you guys on spotify a few weeks ago. Keep playing shows, and hopefully you can end up coming down to Florida!
Jon Perez They will be in Pensacola like in a week. !
I just discovered them :) going to a show in may! It’s so cool to read comments from years ago and know they’re still being discovered
Was jamming to Matt Maeson on Spotify and decided to look at similar artist. Thank the lord for choosing these guys 🙏
man this song touches my soul! makes me wanna cry from the sound of their voice!❤ cant wait to see them in kcmo in april
I heard this song for the first time last week riding in a buddy's car in Austin Tx. I don't know if it was the pot cookie I ate earlier that day or just this dude's voice but I definitely was brought to tears by this song. I said the exact same thing to my buddy at the time, his voice touched my soul...
Wow, got lost in here but I'm here to stay. This band rocks! 😮👌♥️
My heart and soul were never mine to own, what you care to die for?
What you care to die for?
We die alone, we'll all die young, what you care to die for?
What you care to die from?
Snow glistens on the ledge, whiskey on the bed, shake it out and light a cigarette
Miss me when you, you wish you weren't right
Shake me all out if I'm wrong, for you, for you
Shake it all out when I'm gone, I, for you
Is the devil so bad if he cries in his sleep, while the earth turns
And his kids learned to say, fuck you they don't, love you
Does the devil get scared if she dies in her dreams, where the earth burns
She cries cause she's nothing like you, is she like you?
What you want from a devil like me, devil like me?
You see the devil don't mean to be evil, he just regrettably forgets to exceed expectation
Holes riddled in your head, little bit of lead, shake it out and line silhouette
Miss me when you, you wish weren't kind of glad
Shake me all out when you're done, for you, for you
Shake it all out when I'm gone, I, for you
Is the devil so bad if he cries in his sleep, while the earth turns
And his kids learned to say, fuck you they don't, love you
Does the devil get scared if she dies in her dreams, where the earth burns
She cries cause she's nothing like you, is she like you?
What do you want from a devil like me, am I like you?
gandy saltos mera thanks
So beautiful!
Thank you 🙏
Thought I heard pu$$y on my leg lol
Ty soooo much!!!!!
🖤Love the beauty that shines through when artists just come together and do it for the soul. 🖤 So damn beautiful!
Freakin 3 years later and I'm just finding this great song now damn...
I once loved a Devil, she never did give me back my soul.
My devil was a man. Good luck ❤
I feel that.
Kittens are cute and rainbows are colorful, but damn brodies vocals are a real surprise
❤❤
Damn, this song has everything. I love the rhythm, the lyrics, music, vocals, and even the look (video suits it perfectly). Glad to have stumbled on it.
This video speaks to my reality. And, I needed to see it and hear these lyrics. Thank you.
This is literally my favorite song at the moment, I mean the chills and the goosebumps, OMG!!!
I am so excited to see you all in April in Newport, KY!!! Love you guys!!!
The composition is fantastic and I love how it has a middle ground between chill and edge
Just BECAUSE EVERYONE CAN CATCH THE ENDING CREDITS ~ THEY THINK THEY KNOW THE WHOLE STORY… CURSE ME AND I’LL STILL SAVE YOU!!! True DIVINITY
I just moved to Boone, NC. When I heard this band was from here I started to feel right at home.
The first time I heard this song, I was hiking around Mt. Rainer. And feel in love with this song.
Not 10 seconds went by before I subscribed and liked the vid. Your voice is so gripping. Never stop. You are meant for this.
I'm on my uncle's accout right now. Anyway i met these guys at a place called the blind tiger, my father was with me, he's gone now. Yet again anyways they were awesome, i got along great with them. Downright cool dudes. That name and that night will forever be one of the most remarkable for me...
#neverforget
Love the lyrics and the vibe.. goosebumps is always the best sign..
True
Thank you so much @CBSNews for having them on this morning. Otherwise I would have never come across this great band.
Danny with the music video aside what is your interpretation of what this song is about ? I'd like to get your opinion on this.
When this song FINALLY came on during their set, I about lost my shit. They didn't play American Hero, but they gave so much energy, and his dance moves were just fantastic. Do not pass up an opportunity to see them live!
Starting RUclips on the Alex Jones Indy rock song led to my awareness of your existence. You guy are amazing. Better late then never right 💖
i know y’all are probably never going to read this but it’s worth it anyways. you guys have helped me through so much and being a musician myself, i appreciate you guys so much. keep making amazing music and i love you 💜
Why aren't you uploading your music on yt? Now I want to hear it. 😐
Listen once a week for couple yrs now. Most underated band. Love ya guys
Absolutely fantastic song! The album in it's entirety is brilliant! kinda wish I hadn't heard of RKS until they had like 5 albums just so I can hear a lot more all at once :-)
Your wish came true for me :) I just found them
Literally.... and I use that word correctly, my new favorite band
How did it take me 6 years to find this song !? Instantly fell in love with it 💜
Girl, same!
When I listen to this my entire body shudder with chills and my mind calms. From the moment I heard it the first time it became one of my calm songs for when I get overwhelmed. I listen to it a lot and it's one of the greatest comfort songs I know.
This is such an underrated song...just wanted to say hi from a small country from the other side of the planet!
UNSHAKEABLE FAITH, HOWLING HOLY SPIRIT AFLAME WITHIN
I will always dedicate this song to the father of my youngest daughter whom I've loved so much. We've been through hell battling drug addiction together. And I always play this song everytime I feel miserable and high which was every single day. It was a scary place for me. I crawled out of addiction and built myself into recovery. Now, I'm sober but sadly, I needed to leave him because he's still the same. Our hearts are full of anger right now. I know he hates me for leaving him hanging but I need to save myself to be a better person and mom for our kid. He's been saying I'm like a devil and how evil I am for doing that to him. And I always go back to this song.
RV, wherever you are right now, I still hope you can get out of that darkness. I'm sorry but I can't hurt myself like that anymore. I've been through a lot from you. I will never get tired of praying for you and wishing you'll be better. Andi misses you so much. She will always love her daddy.
Apart from the explicit theme in the video 'Alcoholism', the beauty of this song lies in the fact it can be interpreted to many meanings, depending on the listener and their standpoint. It can even be even brought down to its literal interpretation about the Devil. Come to think about it, the Devil didn't mean to be evil in the first place, and He did fail to exceed the expectation it was set for him, "the perfect true agent of God." ( I came to this interpretation as i was traveling by train while listening to this song lol.. It really made me think.)
Apart from the explicit theme?
Probably the explicit theme is the theme.
Makes me think too. ty
Welcome to art
Lucifer A.K.A. PhospHORUS redeemed us from perfection so that we could know the left from the right and the first one bearing the Light to descend in order to create this place "outside of G*d". The Grand Experiment a place we come to know ourselves not as One . Where reality is an agreement and your personality (personal reality) is entangled/entranced by the duality of Maya...
5years and I still come back when I want to feel something..
Dude, I'm in love with this song, can't get it out of my head yet. You know I'm betting on you since you got all your ideas in your head, Sam. You're gonna make it big. #RKS #GRANDE!
Yo the fact that I found this song in Lund's inspiration playlist. This is under-rated AF, even at 10m
"Devil Like Me"

Completely irrelevant but Your family/last name evokes memories of the second year of sixth grade (Trisha Horvath) and the 2nd time my mind magnetically charged, no hold, caught in gravitational pull, around Her in space suspending thoughts, mine orbit. An other's Love I'd absorb it. Any other's Love a scorn-pit. Another Love , thorns hit! ^Out of cage, *I'll break^ ribs* & Side Split!
Man marriage may be mad for meh health. Might maybe marry Myself. Maybe making me Somebody else. Might be taking my wealth. like look , a lot a lead . Light lost, allot of dead. Left Hook, I ought a lead. Straight left, no need. Strafe right She said and leave all that lead with the dead.She's in My Head and thinks to get me out the bed.
This dude I work with introduced this to me last night at work and I'll be forever grateful for that!
One of my favorite songs to listen to when it rains. Makes me feel like a cat staring out the window
someone recommended me this band in freshman year 5 years ago now, me being one of those kids, I heard the name and never gave the band a second thought. I wish I would've pushed past that because I can't imagine the person I'd be with music like this.
Essa banda merecia mais reconhecimento.
SS, acho que cheguei a ouvir todas as músicas deles, e todas são maravilhosas
Accidentally stumbled upon this in Spotify a few days ago like most of them ones who commented. Got to say, instantly loved it. Glad I stumbled upon you. Despite what others say, I actually like 'Rainbow Kitten Surprise'... sounds like some sort of rainbow colored candy that magically rains glowing rainbow kittens from the sky every time you suck on it.
Rates farum with the music video aside what is your interpretation of what this song is about ? I'd like to get your opinion on this.
I found you guys mid peak of an intense lsd trip and had the whole mood of my trip change the most orgasmic colors and feeling of not being alone overcame me and i never not feel alone thank you guys so much for being a thing of pure bliss and raw emotion
that was the first time i listened to them too. their music hits in a way that no other music ever has and probably ever will
I heard about them from atwwd podcast! As soon as Christine said she liked Weezer and this group, I had to listen. Happy I found a new fav!!
Rainbow Kitten Surprise! Take that dope logo of yours and make some merchandise! I need a t-shirt STAT. It can help me start some conversations about you guys too!
+Kaleb Naylor best idea I've heard all day
They have some ! Woot
This song has answers to my prayers since July 7, 2014. I'm just now finding it. Never lose hope
It's like Fleet foxes and Glass Animals had a love child 🔥🥰
This has me feeling throwback vibes to the almost sold out, Red Rocks show!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Goin thru it, losing my kid , ex moving across the globe after 10yrs of using me . Stealing my only reason to live right out from under me. This song plays on repeat in my head..
Finally found a comment I can relate to... On going battle with a "cult" covert narcissist .. soon to be.. ex husband and his covert narcissist mom.... have a 3 year old in the middle and they lie and ... it is all just some really sick stuff... I sit with it and do my best... His mom is so much of it... Sad thing is I will never know if he knows her lies or if they set me up.. again.. but it wouldn't matter, he lies too... just alot of loaded betrayal and sick stuff... anyway, point is you're not alone... Stay with me and don't give up.... for your child, but for yourself too. We deserve peace. If not now, in our life sometime, we deserve real true peace... even if we are alone on our own... People are sick..... bless u... sorry for ur struggles....
Oh and point of relating to this song..... His mom said I was the devil and did the devils work.. they have justified their actions and if they couldn't, made me a liar... It is so much.. Thier true self was shown to me and no one else had ever seen it.. His mom wants her son and our daughter to her own.. It sounds insane bc it is.. It is too much. If someone reads this and wants to know more just ask... bc it is good for me to talk about it, but then it starts messing with my nerves and now I will just wait. Maybe someone will see this and need it in thier life.. Covert narcissism is real and sick. Sociopathic, brainwashing.... manipulation and leaves you empty. Ironically, I found myself in the sick maddness. I accept who I am, my past and all. Bc I don't have to hide who I am and I dont care if everyone likes me or not. I know I am kind and genuine. And they made me out to be a monster and unfit mother bc of what they were doing.. but they do no wrong. They are RIGHT. About everything... Man my brain... ok I'm done now I guess.... yeah gotta stop thinking about it now.
Song to me is a small anthem.. calling me a devil and horrible things... well I'm not like you. I am a human being with feelings and emotions. Am I devil bc I am human and I dont try to be something I'm not. I am not what you say.... so make a mockery of me in that sick little community and call me whatever you want to. just shake me all out when your done. Am I like you... No. And I never ever want to be. And my daughter will not be stunted and caged in that small community of masked sickness... or exiled by YOUR will.. YOUR WILL you claim is the God you worship.. No it is YOUR will. Just exile your loved ones for your own gain to keep your perfect image.... dont see how you sit in church... justify and forget what you want to .. SICK and INHUMAN ...... you're the devil for what you do and have done. Dress up and go sit in church...... Like you said, you know where youre going when you die.. bc you do the lord's work... wow.. just wowowowoww at life and humans.... I dont want to go to your perfect heaven....
Found these guys doing a concert on PBS channel and fell in love with them beautiful they are
I'm going to spread your music like fire!
Thank the lord for your music. It honestly makes me feel so alive when i feel empty..
THIS BAND ROCKS. CHEERS FROM DUBAI. YOU GUYS SHOULD COME OVER SOMETIME.
Dubai was liiiiiit
Fuck you
Excellent song fellas!
On a personal note I used to drink that Old Crow Bourbon whiskey... Now just smelling sour mash even in recipes turns my stomach.
Needless to say I definitely do not miss those days 😅
your singing is so relaxing , i’ve been obsessed for a few months , not stopped listening since , keep doing what your doing cos i absolutely love it♥️♥️♥️
Sometimes a song just speaks to your soul. And what a wonderful feeling that is.
this video/song is so sad. and I think the video goes so well with the lyrics.
So simple but evokes such a powerful memory and feeling that we can all understand.
Lyrics
My heart and soul were never mine to own
What you care to die for?

Snow, snow glistens on the ledge, whiskey on the ledge

Wow!! I heard you for the first time today... I found a new band that I LOVE!! thank you!🙏💖
I think this song is going to make me a better person.
This song would’ve made more sence to me 8 years ago, but I’m glad I still found this gem
I am a student at PCHS where Mark Donnel (the older actor) teaches drama...he got me into this band when he showed me the video he starred in cx
i love him for it its beautiful
Panther Creek HS?
If you happen to see him again tell him that there are people who think he did an excellent acting job on this video.
Pierce County high?
