@@cl0ckisg0d58Admittedly I struggle with this, but amen, thank you..I guess this reminds me of this verse: _But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another._ ― Galatians 5:22-26
These lyrics are absolutely brilliant. I mean, two different screamers to contrast a person and then an inside voice telling him he can't do something? This band is simply spectacular.
It seems I only really figure the meanings of ABR's lyrics when I am facing the troubles that they are talking about. Before I thought the higher vocals were these "naysayers" he talks about, but it is actually a battle between head and heart. I always trust my head over what I want to do, but I guess taking the dive is worth it and just because it is, doesn't mean that it is going to be easy. Oh my gosh, I always feel so inspired by ABR and the really help me through my troubles! God bless them :)
I completely agree, bro! These lyrics can be so relatable and inspiring; when we're going through the harsh and toughest times! :) This song, Redemption, Spirit Breaker, Meridian and Fault Line are probably my favorite songs, lyrical wise. :)
No there are cunts out there that pretend to be your friend and when they catch sight of your intention to become some thing greater the melodic center part is for internal reflection about the external. Don't give up. Carpe diem. Gutta cavat lapidem non si ved saepe cadendo. Aut viam iveniam aut facium
August Burns Red has always been one of those bands who have never released a bad song. Masterpiece after masterpiece. They are almost musically incredible.
This is more than a song, it's food for our un-purified souls! This song is quite self-explanatory, it's about working hard for our determination. To fight for what we truly love and want to achieve. If anyone and I mean ANYONE is trying to put you down from achieving your goals and dreams, verbally or physically. Just remember the lines "This is what I need, you are what I need. I need motivation, to prove you wrong and I will prove you wrong" Maybe I'm not as good or as talented, as brilliant or even as rich as other people. But I let my passion drive me on, which is music, God and learning . And I bet it's ABR's passion for the same thing that I mentioned above. That makes them so great and inspirational today! God bless all of you. :)
Dude my dad told me Im stupid for trying to tour with a band. But Ive realized that if I followed the goals my dad wants to to follow, Id be miserable. Ive played a few shows with my band, and I couldnt be happier. Follow your dream dude.
If you've never deadlifted to this song, you've never lived. 3:47 is when you start to grip it. 4:00 when you start get angry. And 4:15 when you start to lift.
+Aaron Wheaton want good lifting music? check out I See Stars, kinda gay electrocore, but their drops and vocals are powerful as fuck. Check out the songs: Boris the Animal, nzt48, Filth Friends Unite, and Gnars Attacks. You can't not appreciate the power in those songs
This song just keeps getting replayed every single day. I love this song, I get lost in the acoustic part and fade away into this song. I don't know how to describe it.
Throw away what the naysayers say. Believe in Jesus and you will be saved brothers and sisters. Resist temptation and evil. Repent, do not try to survive.
I’ve thrown away all of my outside distractions. I’m diving headfirst to chase a dream that I won’t let go. It’s worthless - a waste of time. This goal is out of reach. You better fall back in line. This is what I need. You are what I need. I need motivation to prove you wrong, and I will prove you wrong. What makes you think that you are different? How can you chase these dreams? They’ve become a chore. I know I’m close. I’m almost there. Just a little more, and I will prevail through what you call "ignorance". I will prevail. Now I’ve chased this dream to do what I love, and I wouldn’t trade it for a thing. Now I’ve chased this dream and I made it out alive. I wouldn’t trade it for a thing. I threw away what naysayers say, and started on a race that I had to win for myself. And you proved me wrong, you proved me wrong. All I’ve learned is teaching me more. All I know is driving me on. All I’ve learned is teaching me more. All I know is driving me on.
I listened to this while listening to the same song in itunes at the same time. It was one of the best decisions I made this week. (Kinda felt like being at a live show)
I read this song was written by matt the drummer because his dad told him that making a band will never work out and that he should just stop but matt decided to just dive in head first and look how big and better they have gotten their a great band
I was at Best Buy a couple weeks ago and I saw a small child, not 5 years old, holding this album. He asked his dad to buy it for him. The dad picked the child up and bought it for him. Its good seeing small children getting into amazing music at such a young and impressionable age. I have a feeling that boy will go on to do great things.
in addition to that the band members themselves say that they are christians but dont like to shove it down peoples throats. they instead have extremely positive lyrics. but beyond that, THANK YOU for supporrting this great band!!
Even after all these years I still come back to this album. Every thing about it speaks to me on a whole other level. This song in particular is one of their deeper ones. Love everything about it.
This actually became my theme song for when I did my big job change a year and a half ago. I had almost no support for that decision and I set out to prove everyone wrong for why it was so much better for me and I did exactly that.
I love this song It's about chasing your dream, putting your head and not stopping till you achieve it. Also the devil or whoever is going to try to discourage you "It's worthless, a waste of time." But not to take it negatively, to use it as motivation "This is what I need, you are what I need, I need motivation." This whole album in my opinion is there best lyrically by far, and some of the best I've ever heard.
Dustin and Jake both singing is just a masterpiece!!!!! Dustin has a more wicked scream but Jake just has such a melodic voice they both fit perfectly.
This song is so well written its not even funny. What a collection of minds/souls to come together and create such beauty. Thank you ABR, Thank you God.
It's a bit bittersweet though as it both saddens me and baffles me quite a bit that music like theirs is so underappreciated or not even considered as music by many, when it comes to anything remotely leaning towards the metal/hardcore genres. Like, I understand if they may not like it musically..but I'm sure they can find at least one they can appreciate―because they don't all sound the same. Or they can at least acknowledge the universally heart-wrenching lyricism it provides. Which is beyond a shadow of the doubt why so many appreciate bands like ABR in the first place. But I digress..grateful they still exist nonetheless though for those out there that do acknowledge it's beauty, like us. As well as for those struggling to the point it feels like the end and maybe this is what ultimately helped them to get back them back up again and maybe remind them they still have a soul. And maybe that's us too. But yeah dude, amen! I honestly wouldn't be here if it wasn't for God and music on my side to help me through all the dark times..which are plenty.
I think only on youtube you'll find so much needless debate over the meaning to a song, an awesome one at that, which we all just need to shut up and enjoy the way it was meant to be, with our ears.
From today on, I'n not going to worry anymore, I will going to give it my all, to achieve my dream. I wish you all to be successful❤❤ We didn't choose this road because it's easy. There are obstacles, but it's important to remember why we chose it
A true emotional onslaught, a conversation between two people, one of whom is chasing a dream, seizing the day - Carpe Diem, the other telling him he won't and can't make it. A true modern masterpiece, Jake and Dustin have phenomenal talent in expressing the emotion in this song. Brent and JB, never disappoint; they're flawless and I don't really need to say anything about Mr. Greiner because his epic work speaks for itself. It's a shame that some people will never experience this songs power.
How can this video have even one dislike?! Some people are tasteless and without goals, I call them the wanderers. 5 stars for this track, keep em coming ABR.
i was scared to go back to wrestling because i sucked freshman year ,this and other songs motivated me to go hard in everything i do.Hoping i come back amazing.
Видеоклипы
Good Lord, Dustin's vocals on this song are so amazing. And they blend so perfectly with Jake's. What a great band.
toda la razon brooooo
Yeah his highs in this have me chills. Fucking epic.
@@godwings101 it really sounds like a scream from the heart, and people wonder why we listen to "scream music"
"yes i will prove you wrong." makes me feel like i shouldn't ever feel afraid of any obstacles.
I agree ✌️
You never should!!! Walk with Holy Spirit!!!! I WILL BUILD YOU UP!!!! SEND ME!!!

Same!

ISetYourFaceOnFire if they make masterpiece after masterpiece wouldn't that qualify them as musically awesome?
"You proved me wrooooooong! You proved me wroooooong!"
Gives me chills every time.
This song is so powerful.
This song is a gem. Phenomeninal voice. Instruments classic abr and lyrics are gold
Dustin's screams are so sick.

If you've never deadlifted to this song, you've never lived. 3:47 is when you start to grip it. 4:00 when you start get angry. And 4:15 when you start to lift.
You can only deadlift 4 plates to this song, no less or you're letting ABR down

Put this on /fit/ ages ago lost 20 KGS in keto mass bulk time all day m.I.s.s workouts
Koops Cooper lol
A timeless masterpiece. Loved in in 11th grade, love it today.
The pitch on his screams on this track are phenomenal. One of my favourite tracks on the album because it shows off Jakes vocals.
The bassist also screams in this band too, although I'm not sure if he's particularly involved in this song.
Antonio Cruz
yes he is :) all the hight passages are his work, absolutely amazing on video from live concert too :)
Dustin sounds insane in this song ❤
Only when i listen to metal: picture myself standing in front of thousands of fans screaming.. or doing some random heroic act :D
Me too, man :D Thought I'm the only crazy person, pretending this :D
I thought i was the only one. You guys know whats up
Throw in some background lightning and I'm right there with you.
MrJtrees Okay, so we're gonna start a band then and tour the world? Sounds great :D .
I'm in.

This song has changed my life. Literally. ABR gives hope to the hopeless, that's REAL music.
This song made me cry. This is by far the best song created by August Burns Red.
omg this song is unbeaten... It just cant stop!!
They here the screaming, we hear the meaning.
Really cool comment
This comment is the same tier of excellence as "Angry music for happy people"
Great comment
Jake has the lows and mid covered so well and Dustin wrecks the high screams. So perfect.
I’ve thrown away all of my outside distractions.
I’m diving headfirst to chase a dream that I won’t let go.
It’s worthless - a waste of time. This goal is out of reach. You better fall back in line.
This is what I need. You are what I need.
I need motivation to prove you wrong, and I will prove you wrong.
What makes you think that you are different?
How can you chase these dreams? They’ve become a chore.
I know I’m close. I’m almost there.
Just a little more, and I will prevail through what you call "ignorance". I will prevail.
Now I’ve chased this dream to do what I love, and I wouldn’t trade it for a thing.

"I need motivation" he screams with motivation
Every time I listen to this song it gives me goosebumps!
MikeAymes Ditto!

their a great band
I think Dustin wrote this song actually.
really well I read matt did it but overall its a great song
This was my theme song in middle school. Now I’m 20 years old and it’s still absolute fire
Keep doing what you are doing, ABR. It's really affecting my life in a positive way.

Definely their best song of all times

This takes me back to some rough times in middle school. Damn
Goosebumps every fuckin time. Amazing piece of art. Thank u so much
This song is just pure awesome. One of my very favorite ABR tunes.
when they sing at the same time it sounds so amazing
i feel this is the best song on leveler. its like the conclusion to composure in a way.
I have my morning coffee then I turn this song on, then I blast into outer space.
This song is killed me in live. I love August Burns Red, they are a huge inspiration to me. Best band ever!
Absolutely hands down one of the greatest intros to a song I have ever heard.
Still jamming this song weekly
"O captain, My captain!"
WHY I DIDN'T FEEL LIKE CRYING TODAY
omg yes !
This is how i relax, this kind of music helps me calm down.
No dislikes. Finally, we have a sane crowd.
This song is so brilliant. I watch it daily to get pumped up.
every time I doubt abouth putting so much time and effort in my band I listen to this song!

I met these guys at warped tour. They are one of the kindest bands i have have ever met in my life, no dought about it
the best song on the album
Still love this song
This song really connects with me cuz there was so many people telling me i couldn't do shit and well i did prove them wrong!!
More inspirational than I'll ever hear on K-Love. >_>
+Anun AMiss Better sounding too!
This song is a direct evidence that goosebumps can have goosebumps too, prove me wrong.
this song ROCKS!!!!

This song Leasehold the Soul...
Their best song
Honestly, the original is so much better than the remaster. Slaps so much harder. I can feel it.
Worldly things suck thats what god is for thanks for the song A.B.R.
We talked about Carpe Diem in my English class today and it reminded me of this song lol
The 2 voice are awesome together its sick
i love this song, is of a my favorites (8).
This song is beautiful and full of inspiration
Such an underrated song.
Band...
From today on, I'n not going to worry anymore, I will going to give it my all, to achieve my dream. I wish you all to be successful❤❤ We didn't choose this road because it's easy. There are obstacles, but it's important to remember why we chose it
Oh nooo I've made a gramatical mistake aaaa sorry
That intro, my gawd
this song makes my insides twist. so amazing
I luv Pangea,Meddler,Composure,and Carpe Diem out of all ABR songs

omg this album makes my heart happy
Cant wait to hear this song live !!!
I've never heard of ABR until now and this album is blowing my mind lol! I love it! I will definitely check out their previous work too. :)
How can this video have even one dislike?! Some people are tasteless and without goals, I call them the wanderers. 5 stars for this track, keep em coming ABR.
so beautiful lyrics
i think.this is the best song of leveler album
WAY BETTER THAN THE LAST ALBUM!!!!! I'm buying this one just like the last(:
Fits exactly into my situation today. Weird that I got it recommended today for the first time after listening to ABR for years
Love the bass solo in this
1:26 - 1:40 gives me chills every time!
great song to drive to!
Still my favorite song after almost 20 years.
I assume this was a typo and you meant 10.
Great song! A motivational song that makes us want to push the envelope and reach our goals
i was scared to go back to wrestling because i sucked freshman year ,this and other songs motivated me to go hard in everything i do.Hoping i come back amazing.
gives me chills. very inspiring.
