LYRICS
Hold my hand
Through all the bad things, you seem
A little better since you now believe
I won’t ever drop you like you are old news
Clear the air
What has been going on?
Yeah for a while you’ve been feeling wrong
Just hoping that life would feel like it used to
Chase down that crown
You don’t deserve to feel so down
I guarantee
I’m there for ya, there for ya
I’ll always be right here
When everything’s unclear
Please promise you won’t let go
Hold on til the morning
Forget all the scoring
Your flowers will finally grow
And I needed you to know
Spent your days
Glued to your telephone
And hoped that maybe you’d feel less alone
And find yourself through a post again
but it’s
All the same
Except that you’re not alone
Because in me you’ll always have a home
I’ll drop it all and come running,
Just say when
Chase down that crown
You don’t deserve to feel so down
I know you’ll see I
Will always be right here
When everything’s unclear
Please promise you won’t let go
Hold on til the morning
Forget all the scoring
Your flowers will finally grow
And I needed you to know
I’ll never forget
When you came to my doorstep
With tears on your shirt
Yeah I swear I’ll do
Anything for you cause it
Hurts to see you hurt
I’ll always be right here
When everything’s unclear
Please promise you won’t let go
Hold on til the morning
Forget all the scoring
Your flowers will finally grow
I’ll always be right here
When everything’s unclear
Please promise you won’t let go
Hold on til the morning
Forget all the scoring
Your garden will finally grow
And I needed you to know

Help us welcome Meet Me @ The Altar to the Fueled By Ramen Family! Anybody have peanut butter? Because this song is a JAMMMMMM! 💜👌💖😘✌
Fueled By Ramen ily
Kollam pwoli sannam
Why can't be the song be honey? Peanut butter and honey sandwiches are👌👌👌
found them in the midst of the BLM movement, so glad to see them get the recognition they deserve
As a black girl who loves metal and punk and rock of all forms, it’s liberating to see poc especially black people be in and lead bands
Dude that's awesome
100% agreed
Yesss!
You can tell they're going to be absolutely fucking massive, the hooks are ridiculous, it's got riffs for DAYS and the frontwoman has such a unique energy.
THIS PART!!
@Saosin Ocean We shall see
Wish it could be true, but such music is not mainstream anymore :(
@@Shroombear42 It still does very well though, and at the end of the day it only takes one band to be ahead of the curve
@@Braddicusfinch i want to believe
I'm not black but as an Asian woman I felt like an anomaly for liking this type of music growing up in the 2000s. Seeing diversity in a genre you love does make a difference
It does!
Guess you didn't listen to many bands then lol ex lead singer of Killswitch Engage is Black, so are POD, so are Living Colour...
People don't realize that many legendary bands in rock and metal have people of color: Queen (South Asian), Bad Brains (Black), Dream Theater (East Asian), Ill Nino (Latino), Testament (Native American), System of a Down (Middle Eastern).
@@brucenatelee even Van Halen (the brothers have quarter Indonesian ancestry from their mom)
Helps soooo much
As the father of two young kids of color who LOVE hard rock and punk, I'm so grateful that your band exists and can't wait to share the "Garden" video with them. Keep doin' your thing!!
tell them about radkey too! they are amazing
that kind of made me tear up
At 19 and tearing up cause as a younger emo wanting to make music if my own, I was always so discouraged. Seeing another black woman in the industry and on her way up make me so happy! Definitely found some new favourites!
Anyone who discourages girls like you, especially based on race, can shove it.
Brits it
the little lonely black alt girl i was in the 00s is living rn, she never even dared to hope she might see this 💖💖 i wish this group the most success
This! All of this!!!
They sound incredible.
So happy
you should also check out Straight Line Stitch, Wicked Wisdom and Sevendust. They have black vocalists
Have you heard Willow's "Transparensoul"?
This literally makes me want to cry because growing up I remember thinking it was wrong to be black and love anything but rap 🙄🙄. My friend showed me this and I instantly got high school flashbacks 💜💜. Thank you for the representation of black women in rock
Same here!
You know black Americans invented Rock and Roll right? Crazy how it’s associated with suburban white culture when it originally was an off shoot of R&b/blues and the struggles of the times.
@@mattm9689 yeah I noticed how A LOT of black created genres get a "white" lable on it. I NEVER knew up untill recently as a black woman that black people made the rock-'n'-roll genre!
by the looks of em, they could be really pissed if you assume their gender.
@@ToddMcKean31 Don't spread unnecessary negativity ok? You're acting really embarrassing rn
This song is so catchy. Love this.
right?? it's been weeks and it's still stuck in my head lol
My boyfriend came home from work one day and said "i found a band I think you'll like", played this song, and he was absolutely right.
My former emo kid self is tearing up, I love seeing this! A POC band that plays the music i loved and was made fun of for loving when I was a kid. This is amazing to see and I hope this band has major success
I’m a 27 year old adult and this makes me beyond happy. People say the most whack shit when you’re a black person who isn’t what people see when they watch tv.
You took the words right out of my mouth! I am living for this band already having just found them today, and I wish there were more bands that looked like this when I was a teen listening to this type of music.
THIS!!!! I'm so hyped I can't even describe how happy I am! My forever emo kid is screaming the hell out me
Absolutely the first thing that came to mind for me. This band was all I wanted to see when I was in 9th grade. I wish them all the success in the world.
It’s like I’m see myself.
It’s a happy song but I’m tearing up because I feel seen. I’m almost 30 but this girl is living my dream and I’m proud of her.
Love the metal-influenced bass drum gallops! Glad I saw an ad for this group a couple months back, cuz this shit still slaps. Congrats to them on a very well-received debut!
Same here! Love the double bass.
Congrats on being signed! I’m an ex-emo because I’m 33 now starting a family but is anyone REALLY out of the pop punk scene? I think not!
Im thirty and listen to emo on the daily
27 going on 28 and still emo and have a family.
emo never goes away, ages like fine wine 🍷✨
Hey now. I'm 38 and still emo. Ain't no shame. 😂
Fellow black head-banger here 🤘🏾
I thought pop rock would never make a comeback in the west my 31 years being on this earth I can’t believe my eyes 👀 mad love from South Korea 🇰🇷
Omg I recognize the drummer girl from a tøp cover she did years ago. And I remember yall starting a band called meet me at the alter. YOU GUYS ACTUALLY GOT SIGNED BY FUELED BY RAMEN?!?!? CONGRATULATIONS 👏👏🎉🎉
amelia h
OH THATS WHY THIS BAND SOUNDS FAMILIAR AHHHH
absolutely the same! i saw that drummer girl some time ago with lots of top drum covers and here they are, wow!
OMG I KNEW I RECOGNIZED HER
No wonder.....i felt like i knew her from before but never noticed till now. Thank youu
I'm a black dude, and today is my 31st birthday. I was an unashamed emo kid when I was in my teens and I decided to take a trip down memory lane with my old emo music...and then I came across your band. And I can't even begin to tell you how happy it makes me to see an all POC all girl band playing the music I got made fun of for liking.
Thank you so MUCH for just being you, and I'm looking forward to seeing what you make next
As a black girl I’m so freaking happy this exists!!!
YESSSS!
just goes to show color doesnt matter in this scene. talent is talent here.
As a white male emo/pop-punk lover... I’m so fucking proud of these girls! This songs is so good! I’ll be downloading straight away. Makes me excited for rock/pop-punk music again after a long time of not really having much to go off. May of found a new favourite!
Same here. I can take one look and be like, “Oh, cool, diversity!” and then I hear it and realize that it’s something I’d listen to regardless. It even makes me feel a bit guilty for finding it notable that they just happen to be really damn good, but it’s true that we don’t see a lot of black women (or black people or women) in rock.
I think with all-female bands, too, they sometimes sound more effeminate by design, such as how Shonen Knife sounds like classic punk and alternative but lighter, cuter, and poppier. (No offense to them; that’s a valid sound.) “Garden” is a pretty sugary song but no more than a lot of pop punk, and the riffs and drum patterns have an ass-kicking metallic quality to them. Thus, it stands out, even though it shouldn’t because women should be able to rock just as hard as men.
Couldn't agree more, hopefully will catch them at Slamdunk. I'm so glad a lot of the shits moved away from race etc. In our loveable punk pop industry in a more progressive way then I've seen in other genres.
These folks are ace because their music and vibe but I'm glad there's representation for all the ladies of colour coming up listing to these tunes. Huge Props.
@@meowtherainbowx4163 Like you said, it was by design, so it's relevant to question, who's design? Lots of female artists, even feminine ones, were pressured by their producers to perform hyperfemininity. It's very visible in pop music, but it was also the case in all other music genres. Some have spoken about it and this image was placed on them by poeple who didn't care if it matched their creative vision. I use the past tense because it's starting to change, but it's not like it's over.
totally agree, there is a great future for them
15 year old me is SOBBING. Our future kids will finally see themselves promoted in the rock industry. It’s about damn time!!!!!
We need more of this. There’s too many talented kids out in the world.
I’m so happy for them. I know they’re excited 💓💓💓💓.
For their debut song to be a hit too?! Phew! I’ll be streaming!
I won’t shut up about this that’s for sure 😂.
GIRLLLLLL IM IN TEARS
Just FYI, black people pretty much invented rock music. There are plenty of black people who have been the frontmen of rock and metal bands.
@@16KidGuitar I know that, but in my many years of heavily being into alt rock I've never seen black rock bands being supported by major companies like Fueled By Ramen. Especially in between 2006-2012. That's what I'm getting at.
I'm legit crying!!!!! I needed this when I was 15 but I'm glad 15 year old alt black kids have something they will be able to truly identify with. it's so amazing.
@@16KidGuitar yeah theres a few black men in the alt rock world but all black group with a SUM 41 sound non existent
This completely blew my mind. First of all, the vocalist has such an amazing voice. And the resting of the band was absolutely killing it, like I’m so impressed. I grew up as a black emo girl, and I think most of us know that there isn’t much representation in the alternative/rock/punk music scene. This absolutely warmed my heart and I can’t wait to dive deep and find out more.
Come next time I'll have a great acoustic bass with neck cleaner.
Omg I'm crying 😭😭 Black alternative girl doing pop punk 💖💖💖💖💖
Not just doing pop punk shes fucking killing it. I was getting so many fys and twy vibes
I just found them. I literally clicked the link BECAUSE the singer is black and representation matters, especially in a genre of music that doesn't feature many black artists.
Bad ass bitch right here. She's KILLIN it!!!!
I'm 100% with you. I really hope they keep the music coming. I haven't pop punk this good since I was in high school 15 years ago
I literally cried. 15 year old me is so happy.
@@snazzydrew I legit cried too. They are going to make black and other poc alternative girls feel so seen. I remember being a scene kid and having nobody that looked like me doing this sort of music and style. I hope one day they get to collab with Paramore. I feel like Hayley would totally be down for it 💖
I think the kids are gonna be alright if they have them. ❤️ Thank you. ❤️❤️❤️
The singer's style is just so iconic!!
Can't wait to see you guys become to this generation what Paramore was to mine 💕
Agreed !
These lovely ladies make this grumpy old man feel happy with their groovy and catchy vibez! Love it
sigh why couldn't fueled by ramen sign a band like this when i was in middle/high school 😭😭 this brown girl really could've used it. came across the lead singer's tweet on twitter. so far glad to be here. idc idc i stan this band automatically. wishing y'all continued prosperity. 💜
😍🥰😍🥰😍🥰😍
Don't get me wrong I love EDM music but I really do miss the days of Punk Rock like blink 182 (I know they came out with a recent album and it's good but it's not the same without Tom Delonge.), All American Rejects, Anti Flag, and more. We still need more of this music too and I really like this! It really remindes me Paramore!
This is a whole mood and It’s perfection.
Stand Atlantic is solid new pop punk
Omg yes!
Attraction spot there is another good band is called yours truly
So what the hell did anything here have to do with EDM? 😆
I found this on pure accident and I’m loving every minute of it.
Same
same, she's thriving 🌺✌
Same!
Same
😭😭💕🔥🔥🔥
I'm shedding literal tears of happiness right now. Oh I've waited for so long to see this sort of representation. I love it! ❤😭🥰
The fact that I’m genuinely shedding tears rn iykyk
Same sis 💕💕💕
Like a breath of fresh air. Not very often I check out a new band and watch the whole video. I'm in love with the singer.
I can't believe I'm actually watching this!!! u girls are so young and already signed w fueled by ramen, it's crazy!!! I really hope I can see u live one day and say hi!! MM@TA is going worldwide, put on your seatbelts.
Saw them on a Fueled By Ramen Facebook ad. I've never been so glad I clicked on a facebook ad in my life. Now I need a thousand more songs from them so I can play them ad nauseum.
Bruh. I love this so much. They're so young and the sound is like early 2000s pop punk and I'm LIVING
Where was this when I was in high school to prove that liking other music wasn't a nonblack thing. Ugh! So good!
Yesssss Ada killing it on the drums! I’ve been watching her drum covers since high school (I’m 23 now) and it’s so cool to see her succeeding like this!
Emily
Can I just say, I'm in tears?! Where was this back in the early 2000's 😭😭😭😭 I'm absolutely in love!
It's so refreshing to see other ethnicities on the rock scene... Proud of you guys... Great song btw
Here is another one Sipeo - I’m Dead!
This is the type of positive influence the world needs right now, in every single way ❤️ love your sound and your message! So tired of hearing all the negativity and hate in music today, this is so refreshing. ❤️❤️
a rock girl band lead by a black woman? OMG WE MISSED THIS IN DECADES
YES!
Yeaa you just haven't really been looking -.- there has been lots of black women that are leads in rock, metal and many other genres of music... She is dope as hell, but I am not gonna sit here and pretend like she is the first one -.-
@@brrt1683 While I do agree that there have been many in the past, I am just so happy that this band has the platform to spread their message to so many more. Anyway, we really shouldn't have to look so far for this kind of representation. I remember when I found Straight Line Stitch a long time ago, I wondered why there weren't as many in the category in general where Women of Color played such a crucial role in the upbringing of the rock genre.
We missed good pop punk band like this. No matter of race or gender
You should check out nova twins this isn’t the first black female to lead a rock band there are many especially here in the uk
I am IN LOVE AND AM SHARING THIS EVERYWHERE
Dude what!? I remember hearing about them looking for a singer when i was still in high school. Their singer is certainly talented. Everyone is! I'm so glad to see how far they've come!
Praise thee Lord!
Period and she's unambiguous 👸🏾👸🏾👸🏾👸🏾👸🏾👸🏾
loving the easycore vibes!! Her voice is amazing!
SHES LIVING MY CHILDHOOD DREAM COME ON DIVERSE ALT BAND IM SCREAMING 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
Same 😭
Lol exactly. Even though I knew I couldn't sing for shit
the future of rock music.
I would've died to have had this in high school
crying for my teenage self rn
the visuals of this video are literally unmatched
GET IT TÉA! I remember riding the bus with with the guitarist Tea Campbell and look at her now. Im so proud of her and how far she’s come with the band.
I think ive found my new obsession omg 😍 i love these, and her voice 😍
An all girl alt rock band???? I THINK TF YES
Check out Conquer Divide if you haven't already
I can’t really tell is the guitarist a guy or a girl
@Liam Thurman it’s a girl
@@ruckus9469 Issa girl
My mullet from 2013 instantly grew back. I'm so so so down for this! I'm in love.
Wow. Just wow. This is giving me "screaming punk songs in the shower as a middle schooler" vibes.
My new favorites. 15/10. DEFINITELY RECOMMENDING.
On Radio Disney 😂😭
ugh this is so good
They are everything I wanted to be years ago and everything I still want to be now. I hope y'all know how heartwarming it is to see beautiful poc individuals succeeding as a rock band. Fly high and rock on, Meet Me @ The Altar 💕💕
im obsessed with the lead singer’s hair it’s so cool
THEY LIVE RENT FREE IN MY ENTIRE BRAIN LOBES I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!!
C-mon Black & POC band! I am LIVING!!!🙌🏾🤩
This song has the little black alternative kid in me crying
Yall really are amazing and deserve to glow up!
This is amazing she's even rocking those pink braids!
All the Black Alt Girls are shaking rn!!! This is so amazing!!! #BlackAltGirlsMatter ❤❤😭😭😭
🥰🥰🥰🥰
MM@TA is the band I needed when I was in middle school and high school but I’m so glad I have them now 🥺❤️❤️
This reminds me of early Avril Lavigne in all the best ways. What a surprise, you guys are amazing!
Avril and paramore
Yes EXACTLY
If Avril and ADTR had a lil’ rock baby, it would be MMATA.
This is giving me a lot of Fefe Dobson vibes
ruclips.net/video/sTJ7vtvAc-U/видео.html
Kae dammit I completely forgot about ADTR 😭😭😭
Finally more black rock bands something we absolutely need we already got enough rappers and r&b singers
The way I am absolutely sobbing watching this music video... Coming from an LGBTQ+ member, it’s bringing tears to my eyes seeing what y’all are doing. I cannot wait for y’all to become one of the biggest bands in the world.
LOOOOOL
@@KillerChickn she just had to bring the gay stuff in. Typical. Couldn't be about the music.
@@wdrumz what do you expect? Every chance they get they push their lifestyle on people. It's so annoying.
@@Archangel-ct1iq lmao. OP is not pushing their lifestyle on fuckin anyone. they’re excited to see someone like themself in music. cant you just mind your business and let people be excited?
@@durtis967 silence Snow Flake
Im getting the chance to see them for the first time in Chicago in a month! I’m excited. There has never been a better time to be black and alternative. 🤘🏾🤘🏾
Love seeing black and brown women thriving in a genre dominated by white men.
holy shit do you have to make everything about political like what's your problem I just wanna enjoy a song
@@pqaza_ Why do you read comments if you just wanna enjoy a song ?...
Not just white men, the alt/emo scene is heavily dominated by white teen women lead vocals, and white teen women fans, POC in general and especcialy Women of colour is such a rare sight in this genre, its such a shame.
You love to see it~
We absolutely love to see it ❤ MM@TA are so fucking great I'm so excited to see them grow
Yes, yes, yes !!! You have filled that Paramore sized hole in my life. Thank you. Looking forwards to a UK tour. Keep it up!!!
These kids are so dope!! 15 year old me is STANNING
It’s an all girl’s and all POC band! I’m so proud! 🤗
15 year old me needed to see this. This would’ve changed so much of my direction when it comes to self esteem and belonging. Incredible music, incredible band. Thank you ❤️❤️
"I want to grow up like that girl" 4-y-o daughter. You did it
Discovered this band from Pop Punk's Not Dead playlist on Spotify. So happy they're signed and can't wait to hear more.
I'm 31 and I'm bawling my eyes out because I see these kids doing something my closest friends had only dreamed of. They never got to see this and it breaks my heart.
Why the amount of dislikes ? This band is awesome!
i think the number of dislikes has been counteracted now - people are getting hip to em :)
Honestly I haven’t disliked but this song is mixed horrendously, the strong vocals are buried in the drums and that’s a crying shame. I don’t really care about the bands make-up but this is a strong group and I hope they do well!!
@@jericothe1 🙄
jericothe1 you could have kept this comment to yourself.
@@jericothe1 when they get big they’ll get to hire top sound engineers to do better mixing.
i haven't listened this type of music in FOREVER but this one song has basically reignited my love
Her voice is so dope 😍
IVE BEEN WATCHING ADAS DRUM COVERS SINCE LIKE 2016 BC I WAS SUCH A BIG PILOT STANNIE & NOW LOOK AT THEM 🥺🥺🥺
alexander !
I just love the way she moves while singing. Very catchy song too
You guys will be on bills with DGD and the likes very soon, I’m certain. Extremely nostalgic and just the right sound. The riffage is amazing. The vocal melodies are on point. Everything about it is extremely tight and polished. Do not ever lose this sound, I’ll listen to everything you put out. Great job!
This song is so good it literally makes me wanna cry
THE GIRLS ARE DOING IT! I can't think of a better label for you to call home. Congrats on everything!
This is just beautiful, I’m in love!!!! 💞🤟🏽
Fr can't stop crying rn out of pure happiness. I discovered MM@TA at the end of last year, I knew they were gonna grow like this. Their music is fucking incredible, and the representation that they're serving is so amazing, I'm just so fucking happy for all the kids who will have them to look up to, and inspire them! Representation matters so damn much, I could not be more grateful for Ada, Edith, and Téa. So many happy tears haha 😂🥺❤
She's so pretty and she has such a nice voice!
I saw this song in hot topic and almost cried dude, being like the only alt black girl from what I see in my city I was SO HAPPY ITS SO GOOD 💖💖
I catch myself randomly singing it & it makes me happy 🥺🥰
THIS IS WHAT I NEEDED IN 2020. I REALLY NEEDED THIS. GOD I REALLY. REALLY. REALLY
REALLY NEEDED THIS.
As a non-white fan of pop punk and alt rock, you folks have no idea how big this is to me.
I. Am. Obsessed!
They can't even hide how happy they are right now. What a triumph. MM@TA is for the culture and the world is gonna see it.
I wanna throw out the welcoming hands! Punk/metal/anything do not belong to one race! They unite us all! You're awesome!!!
I don’t know why but this made me automatically happy. ❤️
This is what the genre is about, a bunch of people having fun jamming reguarless of any differences. But damn they have a good sound this is my new jam
I hope they keep the heavyish guitars, this is wonderful, poppy enough for mainstream and heavy enough for underground, it’s the literal sweet spot!
Amazing sound. God bless you all.
We needed some new pop punk bands to fill the void due to COVID and we finally found a good new pop punk band hopefully to have a good legacy forward them.
My middle/high school self can finally rest easy. She has been represented.
I'm totally not crying! I feel so blessed to see this. This is exactly what the me in my earlier years needed growing up, I support this and need more of it! I wa literally wondering the other day about black bands in the alternative scene.
yes yes yes yes and yes. because 15 year old me is trembling rn. I love this 🥺
Yo I stumbled upon this on Twitter and as a black boy myself I love Rock music and this is just.. IMPRESSIVE!
Can I have your hair?!? 😭😭😭🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
