It’s time to go all out
Heed these words coming out my mouth
I’ve held back for too long
I’ve been feinin' to get this off my chest
and say this out loud
false messenger, false prophet
You never suffered a day in your life
You know you need to stop it
You look good as a clone, man
Live your own life and don’t pretend
You don’t know what it’s like
To get beat down and shit on by life
I’ve seen it all before
Yes blood, I’ve been through war
Straight facts, no lies
The truth is in my hungry eyes
Let me tell you it’s not easy
You better believe me
This is real
Well I know, well I know it’s hard sometimes
You better believe me
'Cause this is real
Now this one goes out to the people who struggle through
The ones that fight the odds and break the mold
And put it all on the line just for survival
'Cause you know what it’s like
You’ve been through the same fight
You know what it is to face the end
But for all of you that try to pretend
You don’t know what it’s like
To get beat down and shit on by life
I’ve seen it all before
Yes blood, I’ve been through war
Straight facts, no lies
The truth is in my hungry eyes
Let me tell you, it’s not easy
You better believe me
This is real
Well I know, well I know it’s hard sometimes
You better believe me
'Cause this is real
Sing it with me if you know it’s real
Sing it with me if you feel it too
You better believe me
'Cause this is real
With our backs against the wall, we stand tall
With our backs against the wall, we stand tall
We will stand tall
With our backs against the wall, we stand tall
We will stand tall
Fucking hell, I’ve heard it over and over again
How you’ve been through the struggle
How you’ve been through the war
But we know that’s a lie my friend
Fall back with the hate that you’re spewing
Forgive him father, cause’ he doesn’t know what he’s doing
Life’s about survival, and we're survivors
So don’t act like you’re the only one
Let me tell you it’s not easy
You better believe me
This is real
Well I know, well I know it’s hard sometimes
You better believe me
'Cause this is real
Sing it with me if you know it’s real
If you've been there, been through the pain
Been through the hell, you know it’s real
Sing it with me if you feel it too
You better believe me cause this is real

I always see that one group of people that comment "This sounds generic" and things like that...
Let me remind you that this is just music, this isnt technology, this isnt medicine or anything like that, please erase the idea of every new band having to be groundbreaking to be good and just enjoy the music.
TheHuricange when you order spaghetti at one restaurant, and then another, you don't want both to use the exact same ingredients in the same quantities. Give your band a little flavor. Although they don't really have a choice tbh. They're indentured servants right now
it is generic tbh, it's just post-hardcore and little bit of rap thrown into, but i still like the song despite hating rap.
@@Immolator772 white boy
@@citizennozmeda7232 I love spaghetti and I love Fire From The Gods. If Fire From The Gods were to be a spaghetti, I gotta say, it'll be the most delicious spaghetti I'd ever tasted😂
If you dig this song, check out the band Backwordz. Their lead singer is the one who wrote this one. Backwordz is sick.
I've been listening to "generic" music since 2003. If it ain't broken why fix it? Another great band to add to my library!
+Woe Is Jake Metalcore can be original its a great genre, but there is no point to listening to the same shit over and over again though and thats exactly what this is....its literally only chugging, double bass, and power chords on the chorus with tons "woaahahhhhhahhhh *genric lyric* woooaahhhh". This shits like pancakes without syrup. The band your name is based off of is much better (but only there first album..lol).
+ｘｗ〈３ｌｆ thats true. I mean I still like listening to "generic metalcore" or "generic anything" but the bands the bands that strive to get away from that easily become my favorite. These guy's new single? That shit is fire. This shit is gonna be lit af. I might get some hate but the new Issues album? That song Yung & Dum? That was fucking lit. Those dudes know how to mix genres. They were already pro at mixing Metalcore and Pop, but then they were like fuck it lets add a country sound to it by throwing some violins and a country singer in the mix. Good shit coming from those guys. Oh and yeah only the beginning of Woe Is Me was anything special. Once Tyler left it was just bleh.
Charsinigan Hoodish Agree completely, Headspace was a masterpiece.
+ｘｗ〈３ｌｆｘ Headspace is a fucking bop, I wish it was slightly heavier but other then that the whole album was a fucking bop, I really like the direction they took and I'm hoping they change their sound again cause I really love the constantly changing sound of them, I may be a lil biased since they're my favorite band but Headspace is a bop nonetheless.
too generic 4 me
How is this band not more popular?
FeC ENG racism
Because they are selling the truth not the lies the mainstream media is pushing. They are Godly, not satanic. They did not sell their souls to become famous.
The metal vocals just kill a lot of interest very quickly. I don't think they're bad but I'm glad they have a guy doing strictly clean vocals now. I love the clean vocals over heavy riffs thing more
@@wesleyzimmerman3145 No everyone is going soft and I think they would reach a bigger audience if they had continue to build on the same structure as this song !
@@citizennozmeda7232 ..... Nope.
This is Fucking Fantastic.
I might be wrong but I believe this song was written by Eric July, singer of Backwordz. so if your interested check BackWordz out and tell me what you think :)
callum nicholson, so is singer in this is Eric from Backwordz
No this is not. This was written by Eric but due to these guys just wanting to go straight into touring and Eric not wanting that Eric left, before they made this song. So after Eric left they got this guy in and did the song without Eric. Watch Backwordz Be Great. It explains it all.
callum nicholson. Thank you
callum nicholson yes. It is.
2:48 god damn they go hard on this one.
Check out the band Backwordz. Their lead singer wrote this.
Damn, revisiting this song after many years have passed, since i first heard it, scream + vocals + a little bit of rap, always been my favourite combo.
Have you heard of the band Backwordz? Their lead singer wrote this.
It's finally about time Rise started getting bands like this again.
one would imagine they would be signing actual "revolutionary" bands. theyve got fftg going for them so thats nice.
its so weird hearing this AFTER hearing the album version. if we could get more AJ with heavy songs like this, i'de be super stoked
This is Eric July's version. He left the band before they recorded it.
This song is underrated. Should have more like 10 mil views.
Wow.. They got signed to Rise Records. Congrats to them.
I've been following them forever.
+Hansol Agreed. Been a fan ever since I heard Smoke Screen in Hansol 4.
is there another vocalist backing up AJ? 🤔
@@fredflintknock32 I'm wondering that as well
Fun fact, Eric July wrote this song 😁
That’s why it sounds so good
The lyrics and instrumentals are amazing. More people need to know this band.
these lyrics are so original!!!!!!!1!1!1!!!1!1!
I can't tell if you're being sarcastic... Yeah the lyrics on screen are cool. But the actual lyrics of the song are like any generic song of any genre. Haha
+Joseph “AlphaDoc” Hinojosa Sarcasm is pretty obvious.
hahaha right!
Dis totes isn't generic or sounds like anything else on dis label either OMG!~ #1 Fan
Backwordz jam them till it hurts trust me 😎
Damn, this band is so good it's crazy
So proud of these guys! They're like family to me
Still slaps to this day!
If you dig this, check out Backwordz. Their frontman wrote this.

Nice Zardonic profile pic
It's about damn time FFTG got signed
This song slapped me in the face with the definition of badass
o melhor dessas musicas dessa autoria é que sempre no meio tem um diferencial, uma voz suave que deixa a musica phodaa!!! 😛👌
This band sounds so unique and not like every other metalcore band
Tough. Fresh and unique. Melodic. Great lyrics and musical arrangement. Keep it coming FFTG!
holy fuck that breakdown was smooth, it almost leaves you hanging but comes back even with a bigger bang, love this type of stuff!
If you like this, check out Backwordz. Their lead singer wrote this.
i think this is the coolest lyrics music video i've ever seen so far also great song!!
+Shamu is Hungry You right here have got a great taste in lyrics video.
The best I've ever seen was Me Myself and Hyde by Ice Nine Kills
+Shamu is Hungry YES!!!!!!!!!!! amazing lyric video work production
+Magdiel Sifuentes You should check out Oceano's lyric video for Dawn Of Descent! It's more like a music video than lyric video, it's so cool.
wearetherose sweet. Ill check it out. Ive heard oceanos stuff before. They're like whitechapels son ;)
Lord. This whole song is heavy!!
don't sleep on this band deff the next big band love these boys keep it up
Oh my, what hath thou stumbledeth apon. Second time hearing this band and liiiike
I don't know why people say they aren't as good as they used to be I like it it's definitely nice and catchy
you guys are definitely a new favorite band of mine... GREAT tunes!
yay! I've been watching these guys blow up for the past year. they're a local band here in Austin and one of them is a very good friend of mine. it's great to see this happen for them.
So powerful makes me feel teary eyed.
I've watched these guys work their ASSES of to get where they are! proud of you guys! can't wait to play with y'all again ^-^
I'm not big on the Eric July knockoff, but the songs pretty good nonetheless. Congratulations on getting signed!
Always looking for some new jams, and I am 100% feeling this. These guys are awesome so far
Check out Backwordz. They're awesome. Their lead singer wrote this.
these guys deserve everything they have earned. awesome to watch them grow as a band
Eric July might have something to say about that. Check out Be Great by Backwordz. Eric July wrote this track. He now fronts Backwordz.
The logo that appears in the beginning looks like "fire from the COPS".
These guys are like what sevendust was in 2001 during their animosity years.
Fire from the gods to me is this generations Sevendust, and i love it.
Backwordz is better, these guys shredded so much harder with Eric July in the band.
Eric actually wrote this song
These Guys are perfect! Love the voice!
