Lyrics:
I want to be a Good Man
I want to see God
I want to be faithful
But I know that I'm not
I want to be a Good Man
I want to do right
I don't want to be a criminal
For the rest of my life
Everything that I've done before
Has brought me back down on my knees
And I'm crying out to you lord
It's getting harder and harder to see
If there's any good left in me
Is there any good left in me
I want to be a Good Man
Is there any good left in me
I want to be a Good Man
I want to be saved
I want to be a free man
But I feel like a slave
And I'm crying out to you lord
It's getting harder and harder to see
If there's good left in me
Is there any good left in me
I want to be a Good Man
Is there any good left
I want to be a Good Man
Pull me from the darkness, lift me back into the light
Fill this empty vessel, Fill this hole I have inside
Am I worth forgiveness, I can't make myself believe
Show me that you're listening
And tear this devil out of me
Yea, I want to be a Good Man
Is there any good left in me
Dear Heavenly Father,
I come to You with a Petition of Prayer for this group. Father, I pray they will continue to serve you, and touch the lives of the youth today. Please give them the strength to persevere the attacks other may put on them. Please place a Hedge of Protection around them, as they bring others into Your Flock.
I place this Prayer into Your Hands Father, through The Name of Our Savior Jesus Christ,
AMEN AMEN (As it was said, Let it be done)
Ten years late I am but, amen
Amen 🙏🏻
Yes!
Thank you. This song cracked me. It shared a sliver of God's grace. It put me on the path I walk now.
What a prayer.....in Jesus name please allow them to lead many to our Father Jesus Christ
That in its essence is what it means to be Christian. We are not meant to be perfect, but rather to find forgiveness through Jesus Christ. The lives of many of the Saints, especially St. Augustine and St. Therese de Lisieux, show us this.
"I wanna be a good man, I wanna see God. I wanna be faithful but I know that I am not." Those lyrics hit deep with me
Yes in fact they do!
Little do you know, you have more faith than you think. Much love brother.
If you're an atheist - shut up.
If you're a Christian (like me) - shut up.
If you're any other form of religion - shut up.
Shut up, sit down, put you're volume to 100 and enjoy the music.
Have a nice day.
CottonCandyMiner you're = contraction of "you are" as in "if you're an atheist"
your = possessive form of "you" as in "your dog"
CottonCandyMiner - Thumbs up for Darwinism at its best
thank you for saying that Andrew Cole.
no.....i cant sit down
Andrew Cole but.... i want to lay down instead
I had to find out about this song after hearing part of it on the local hard rock station. I've been saved over 30 years and can still relate to the heart cry of wanting to do better, to be better. I'm always thinking that God continuing to love me, is a much more impressive miracle than the parting the Red Sea. This is a shared experience that's perfect for the hard rock genre.
This is practically a worship song. I absolutely love it! Christians a rock hard too
@@thomaswright9612 Thanks for the reply! I am in need of this video NOW to share with two people, maybe three. Great timing. This has been an unusual day in other aspects too. 👍
The good Lord controls all circumstances. He puts the right message out there that you need, WHEN you need it, and the right people too. 😊 God loves you
Dont argue about God, someone is going to to lose. instead just let the holly spirit work on there heart. btw, song is rockin !
I can relate completely to the place of desolation that any of us, born-again christians, can find ourselves in when we compromise. Painful, but effective. Important song!
It shouldnt matter if its christian or not, good music is good music. It shouldnt matter if its metal or rock. People are so afraid to be judged for liking something they judge it instead.
I think music in general theses days sucks. Every so often a really good song comes out and surprises me. This song is a great example.
Oh man of yesteryear.. your music is refine art now..
It's so funny you say that I said that not long ago. However I've known Blake and Joey for a long long time.
Actually since 2001
Not one religion, or one person, or one group of people, has anywhere near all of the answers. We're all figuring out what we can all over the world. Each religion is clinging to all these' truths' that could very well be proved false one day. We just never know what's going to happen and that's part of the beauty of our universe.
I'm not religious at all. this song is so damn addicting though. Can't get enough of it. Crank it up as loud as I can every time
then why even listen to it jackass
@@boatshift Dude I'm not religious either but there are some days that even I yell to something. Its still a good song. I feel it even if I am not yelling to the same person he is. Not cool
@@UltraCrazycarl You should get religious, its a hip thing thats happening now
You should get religious, it's a hip thing that's happening now
I do lead a happy life. I have an amazing wife and 4 amazing children. All of whom happen to be Atheists as well. I am strong enough to face whatever life throws at me without the need of a crutch like religion to make it through my daily life. I don't need the fear of eternal damnation to make me be a good person, I also don't need the promise of salvation.
Kick ass riff, kick ass song!
I agree 100%!
hell yeah bud
You are the nicest religious person I have met, and that's coming from an atheist. Full respect for you, good sir/madam!
I heard this song for the first time about a month ago.Fucking Awesome.ive listened to it over 50 times now.I love God Jesus.that's my choice.we all have FREE WILL. We all sin daily.this song should be more popular.If this band dont make it,my opinion is because they didn't sell.their souls.very good song,lyrics guitars and damn good drummer
I don't believe in God, but I love this song lol
If there is a difference, I take your word for it and respect that. My father was in the Navy; Uncle Army; Uncle Air Force; Grandfather Air Force, all of which were highly decorated. My Nephew is currently serving in the Army; but that is neither here nor there. Again, thank you for your service.
Again, it is not by accident that I happened upon this song. I have no idea who this band is, and have never heard this song before the other night. I was led her to speak with you. I thank God for you and this opportunity you have given me to speak with you. Be blessed Marine! Thank you for your service.
it doesn't matter if they are religious they can still believe in something & it's a good song because most people in the world have no common curiosity left at all. Some people need to learn tht doing good for others is the only real way you can make ones self feel happy & alive.
I wish people in church understood the Truth you bring Pastor. There are a multitude of Christians being shunned when Christ already paid the price. I am not advocating continual sin without condemnation. We who feel- that never can get away from the Holy Spirit telling us what is right and wrong. 1st Timothy 1:15b. Christ came to save the sinners, of whom I am chief. That attitude is needed today. That was Paul speaking that. If any of us think we are better than, we forget what Christ did.
I'm a Christian. I like music. This song mends go me. Music to be what you make of it. Believer or not. So if you are going to bash a religious person for expressing their view than you deserve nothing but the same in return.
My first concert was yesterday. I saw them with Skillet, Pop Evil, and Sevendust. Let me tell you they put on the best show.
No way bro was that the richmond one in august?
Seen all those bands more than once and they all wail!!!! Have not gotten the chance to see Devour The Day though. That must have been one helluva show!!! Cheers.
Wanted to know if it was in Reno? That was one of the best concerts I've ever been to.
Damn. The inner 13 yr old in me is screaming at the fact that this concert existed and that I didn’t get to go. xD
Nice! I've seen Skillet and Sevendust, they are both really good live!
Thanks. We who believe but don't try to put on a front seem to be in a minority. Glad to hear you understand my position for the"normal" Christians. God bless. I am struggling with things myself and truth is what is needed. That's why the singer/guitarist and the bass player formed this band. They were very popular in their previous band but felt the need to write about how they really feel and thus Devour The Day was formed. Truth trumps religiosity anyday. :)
there is something about this song that hits me hard. It makes me feel like they knew I needed to hear this at just right moment
Holy crap for years later and I'm still trying to figure out is there any good left in me!
None
I won't stop believing before god went back to heaven he told his followers to tell everyone about him and that's what I'm going to do
I'm 27, it's 2022 and I love Christian Rock. I've been listening to it since I was about 10. Basically what I'm getting at here is HOW DID IT TAKE ME SO LONG TO DISCOVER THIS?! 🤯
Because it was originally released on a secular label by an allegedly secular band. Same thing that happened with Skillet and a bazillion other amazing bands.
Thank you for your service soldier! Greatly appreciated. The Holy Bible contains 66 books written by over 40 different authors. The 66 books that made it into what we have today, are books written and inspired by the Holy Spirit. There are other books written that are contained in the Apocrypha, however, they are written by man without the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.
When you speak of being "voted on"; its no more a vote than that of what the Scientific Community uses to accept its findings
I am 12 years old and a girl and this band may be for "big kids" but I just can't stop listening to this band
Egg Beater im 15 and i have been listening to bands like this or even harder bands since i was 10
Egg Beater Music is for all ages :D
Religious or not, it’s a good song about one trying to change their wicked ways. Easier said than done.
Great sounding song with an actual good meaning, don't get that too often these days
Everyone stop fighting! We are all here for the same reason!
Good God I forgot about this song. One of my favorite of all time, and I'm SO HAPPY I FOUND IT
God dosnt require us to be perfect just come befor Him as u r and love his son. The rest comes in time
Egypt Central was one of the more underrated rock bands throughout the 2000s. They will be missed.
Their back
They played in my small town in Nebraska, but I was working. They were really popular in the Midwest lol Same with Otherwise, Trapt, Fuel, Candlebox, Saving Abel and Saliva
@@bryanlenihan5012They're
God is reaching out to you my friend. I will pray that you may find an alter of prayer and be saved. God bless.
I saw them live when i didnt know who they were and DAMN i loved it.
i just was them live on unleashed tour Denver
was amazing and have been hooked ever since
Gloria Lavigne me too!! In springfield il. They put on a hell of a show
Are we worth forgiveness? No, but He is so good He chooses to do so anyways.
Just got turned onto Devour The Day and “Good Man”. I freaking love this song and am going to check the rest of their material out. If the rest of their material is as kick ass as this you all will have another fan for life. I love this song!
You guys are good ben listening for along time
This song makes me think of a troubled, broken man that has infidelity and drug issues along with years of now regrettable bad decisions. He wants to be better and do better, but it's easier to do bad than good at this point, but he still thirsts to be the man his wife of almost 27 years deserves, she's forgave him countless times and struggles daily with the haunting of his infidelity. But even in that forgiveness comes bad days, where she can't forget and she pains and blames. In his rage, sometimes he wonders why stop? Why change? After all these numb years of staying self-medicated and moving through the motions can he be good or is it too late? After all he's done and the things that still cross his mind, will God forgive him of his sins?? Only God knows. 🖤
Matthew 7:7
You're right, in the sense that He can't be proven to exist beyond zero doubt, that's where faith comes in by Design.
However, I can easily flip that and say it's impossible to prove 100% that He doesn't exist either.
Everyone's talking about how great it is that this song is "religious" but it's literally about not being religious / losing your faith.
It’s a song about the battle inside every man of faith he isn’t losing his faith he’s rebuking temptation and sin he’s fighting the good fight
I, as being a veteran myself, Applaud you my friend. We have seen and done more than any of these people can imagine. We have earned our right to speak our minds. All you people that have an opinion about what we say just keep in mind WE do the dirty work, spend sleepless nights, and live with the nightmares that enable you fucks to have your opinions. From now on think before you speak. We did this so you can have your opinion and respect us for it.
This STILL FKN ROCKS!!!!
Idk ...but I'm DIG N IT
Rhonda Brooks still does
Fuckin' 'eh
Fuck Yea!
Rock on!
I absolutely love this song! By far one of my favorite songs from 2013
God is the air we breath as life. Enough said!
This song is perfection! I love it. Hits home 🔥💜
Stand for something or fall for everything.. To me this song is simply a man wanting to do better but finding it hard to even try.. Is there any good left in me...
I am at a time and place in my life where this song word for word strikes a major powerful chord deep within my soul and resonates from my very core with me.
An Awesome Christian Band!!!!!
I've known about these guys for a couple of years but I'm finally giving them a thorough listen. This is an amazing song! Love this.
Just as gumdealer328 said; “God is reaching out to you my friend.” It is not by accident that I happened upon this song. I was led her to speak with you. And as surely as you have seen me, you have seen the LORD brthevio. The LORD is calling out to you in love. Be blessed Marine! Thank you for your service.
This was killer when they played it live on Friday!
+TheInfantFinite666 I'm seeing them tonight - excited!!
+Sarah Girton hope you had fun dude they're great live
I did have fun, loved it!
Please believe and never give up. God picks his children and this band is only children working through God.. sending the message we all ask ourselves.
For me this song represents someone trying to get clean or someone's who's out of the system. No real religion for me, its nice how it can be diverse like that though.
tsunad i agree with you on that
Does anyone realize how iconic this song is?
This song was written for meeeeeeeeeaa.
sure it was loser
This song helps me to remember who is important, the people I hurt with my selfishness, drugs, drinking, lying..... I'm reaping what I sowed.......time is running out to right those wrongs...... I'm sober, working on those relationships.....I hit my knees....can I be forgiven??...
Look up their song "The Bottom" it hits just as hard for those of us that lived it wrong man.
There is always times to make amends. And sometimes those amends aren't you needing to reach out to those you wronged. Something I had to learn.
Sometimes the best you can do is just live your life in a way that you wouldn't repeat that, and if somebody doesn't like that F em.
You cant expect a man to move forward in life when all you do is remind him of his past. That goes doubly for yourself. Remember the past, but don't let yourself believe you are that person any more.
That moment when you find the best song and look it up and it has the best lyrics and best video and you're just like "dang... this is the best."
It is 2013 A.D. (Anno Domini "In the year of the Lord") There must have been something pretty important for us to keep track of it for 2013 years now.
not sure how to feel about this song, its an upper and a downer, and the style that its played and sang in never lets me get to full hype, it brings me up to headbanging mode then calms down to a soft slow beat, i feel like im getting music blue balls here.
by far THE BEST rock song out there!!!!!!!!!!!
I LOVE this song! It is one of the greatest Christian songs ever sung
Just telling truth. Thanks for the encouragement.
I saw you guys opening Skillet last Saturday in Budapest!! This was my fave song!! I really had a blast listening and rocking out to you guys!! You guys really revive that raw 90's sound
Proverbs 20:6 "Most men will proclaim each his own goodness, but who can find a faithful man?" Romans 3:10-12 "As it is written: “There is none righteous, no, not one;
11 There is none who understands; There is none who seeks after God. 12 They have all turned aside; They have together become unprofitable; There is none who does good, no, not one.”
amazing song.... people think it sounds bad ass and it does but i key into lyrics and these lyrics really hit me... anyone thats lived a certain way gets that
My son had me listen to this and I'm glad. I think it is so cool to ROCK the TRUTH!
just heard this and officially is my new favorite song!!!
been out since 2013 and I heard it in 2013 ;)
Wow. I'm so glad I found these guys. Thank you RUclips recommendations.
Saw these guys in concert yesterday with skillet and tfk it was so lit!!!
Same!
best concert ever!
hey I was there
livie dorman I'm Sorry but you can't say lit when listening to this. it isn't lit, it's bad ass. leave that shot for the pussy ass shitty rap lovers
seen them last night with Skillet as well. Sick Puppies was supposed to be there as well, but they got stranded in Philly. So they hired a local band to take their spot.
Young people making statements....I LOVE!!!!
Saw you live at the skillet concert in London hadn’t really heard of you before but love your music now
Same here but in Belgium :)
7 years old, but this song has never been more relevant.
and all you who do not believe there is a God………… seems to me this band has a desperate plea to him. God is Good!!
yea to tell you the truth these lyrics could be considered Christian.
I wouldn't doubt if they didn't make the song because of that. Pull me from the darkness lift me back into the light fill this empty vessel fill this hole I have inside, am I worth forgiveness I cant make myself believe show me that your listening and tear this devil out of me. pretty Christian oriented lyrics.
Nobody gives a fuck.
Andrew Zinner Correction you don't give a fuck.
It all depends on how you perceive it.
saw them live yesterday they were amazing
I get to see them tonight!!
Ryan Compton what songs would you recommend to listen to?
Nicholas England what songs would you recommend?
metal gamer all of them
I just saw them last week with skillet and sick puppies they were really good
Very Hard rock!
I saw Egypt Central at our county fair and the singer wasn't near this good! I was at work one day and tried to remember to find out who was singing this song, then I forgot about it, after work. Then today I was looking to see who was playing our county fair next week and to my surprise...it's these guys and this was the great song I forgot to remember! lol This shit rocks and his voice reminds me of some other singer but can't place it yet?
I get to see em FREE on FRIDAY! #killer!!!
13.11. They will be playing before Skillet. I love this song!
At the norva?
Burned down with these dudes before a show once and the club people wouldn’t let me in at first because I reeked they said, went back and these guys told them they weren’t playing if they didn’t let me in. The club let me in, albeit very pissed, and sinnger said yo dude from the bus earlier glad we got you in man! Great band
would make an awsome theme song for a new borderlands game =}
Literally was just thinking that.
Totally could see that working!
This song kicks ass and would not not only fit in with the theme of the show, but it deserves to be in a Sons Of Anarchy episode.
I miss Egypt Central
Me too 😢😢😢
+Jeremy Harrington still good music to jam 2
Ohh shit they aren't together anymore shows how much I pay attention but what does that band have to do with this band.
+tony quad agreed... this is devour the day not Egypt Central.
+Uhhh Foggy same band so what are you saying?
You are clearly in such an intolerable pain, and hoping so desperately that there is a fairy in the sky...my heart goes out to you.
This song would have been perfect for Jax Teller on Sons Of Anarchy
I totally agree!
Ohhh hell yeah
watch?v=KhueLeSZIWs
TaLa7aMcHo Nice
Fully agree!
IM CRYING OUT TO YOU, LORD! IF THERES ANY GOOD LEFT IN ME?!
Still in my pole dancing playlist. This was a nice surprise I haven't heard this song in YEARS.
That’s awesome!!
Seeing God... Very easy thing to write off, Very hard to forget if you've done it.
did anyone else notice one of the guitarist wearing a nirvana t-shirt
Yeah, I almost turned it off because of it. I don't care if others like them, I'm just not big on Nirvana. Besides that it's a little cheesy, kinda like seeing a Pearl Jam shirt.
Haha. Like Seeing an Alice In Chains Tshirt, or a Ross Perot campaign sign...
I wanna be a good dad
Man ... Lord help me break threw these chains
This reminds me of egypt central for some reason
look at this guy...
+Nate Childs The sarcastic responses are because two members from Egypt Central formed Devour the Day.
+light shade oh lol i had no clue lol i just discovered this song, not like i know everything about a band ive never heard
+light shade What two member was it just curious don't pay to much attention to all that many bands really liked Egypt Central and Devour the day just haven't really looked up to much about either band other then their music.
tony quad "Joey "Chicago" Walser and Blake Allison"
I now have faith in the rock/metal music
2:03 EARGASM
A good way to start living is to not hate on what people choose to believe, or not believe in.
me and my boyfriend seen them with skillet last week in Alabama :)
I'm hoping to go see them with skillet and sick puppies this month!
I did last night
skillet rocks going to the same concert next friday. so exicted , got the VIP. Finally get to meet skillet
skillet rocks i saw them in Seattle for the same tour. It was fucking phenomenal!!!
Saw them at the house of blues, they were awesome. This song is better live!
I can relate to this heavily and deeply. As someone who is bi-polar and who has more fucked up memories than good, being a good man is something I can never achieve. But the very least I can do is not be a bad man. It might sound ridiculous, but the ending of Wreck-It-Ralph made me sob like a god damn child. I have made my nephews and nieces smile and I know I make babies smile (I do not get it, but babies like me despite me not having the same feelings. lol). Hell, all someone has to do is google my name and they will automatically think I am a bad person. My name is forever scarred with negative and sick thoughts. Can't do anything about that. But I will be damned more than I am now if I even come close to proving those quick to judge right. The hardest thing anyone can do in this world is be good. Most will never achieve what many would classify as "good" (especially men). The most we could do is try and never stop trying. I am not a bad man. I am not a good man. I am just a man trying not to let his inner demons win. A man who is trying NOT to be his father. A man who is not trying to be what so many who google me will think. I am sorry for what I have said and done. I will spend the rest of my life making up for it. That, I promise you.
perfect song for the Governor from The Walking Dead
Perfect song for any repentent man at least...I don’t know about the Governor in The Walking Dead per say because S3 was so boring when I tried watching.
these guys are going to ROCK tonight!
I wonder if this guys a Christan cause a few if his songs are god based
Dagon Thegamekeeper Does it affect your life or his music sound? No? then it doesnt matter.
Srry don't get ur panties in a bunch can't a guy just wonder
Dagon Thegamekeeper lel man you just nailed it
+GamingRisen what's up your butt?
+Dalton Bennett (Gaming And Vlogging) just saying that when it comes to music, it doesn't matter what your religion is.
I love this song I am Christian and I love rock it is perfect Mach :-D
