So that everybody knows, these are the official lyrics provided to me by Jeff Williams himself, so please don’t try to correct me on any of them.
Adrienne Cowan = Yellow Text = Yang

Ok, so apparently in Boxing, a lead is the fist you punch first with, so with Yang saying Adam "took the lead"...
Goddamn it Barb
The RT team: "How many puns did you put in the Yang sections?"
Jeff: "Yes"
My interpretation is him taking the lead as him taking her arm off. I hope this is right and I don’t look like a moron like I usually do.
Good thing she's now Armed and Ready.
*OH FOR CHRIST'S SAKE*
Wouldn't Yangs lead be her left fist though?
N-no one gonna mention that Yang said "the goal of a saviour is not to be lionized" and that that's the name of Adam's song?
Yup, this song is the response to Lionized. Lionized kicked off Volume 6 with the Adam Character Trailer and Nevermore capped it following his death. The two songs bookend the volume for a reason.
This is a pretty powerful anthem for anyone who has ever escaped a cult or other abusive power structure
Ar-Are you speaking from personal experience…?
yes@@shaymininfernape7088
Amen! Amen! It's why I love it so much!
china
Christians
You know what I just noticed? Listen closely: Yang tends to be symbolized by drumbeats (for obvious reasons) in her songs, and Blake is usually given a piano-but in Nevermore, it's reversed! When Blake's parts are performed, they're backed with drums; Yang, with piano. Appropriate? Clever? I think so.
Like Blake told Adam, they're protecting each other, which Yang echoed later by telling Weiss they were there for each other.
are you sure about that? I hear drums all throughout the song
@@matthew-ph6xoit's a matter of prominence; piano is more up front at certain times
Oh I hear it the piano is doing a lot more in the Yang verses!
“You won the battle you won’t win the war” gives me the chill sometimes and I like it
Okay, the fact that Blake and Yang are perfect opposites in physical appearance yet similar mentally makes these two even more beautiful.
I love how this dude just casually gets the official lyrics from Jeff Williams himself lol.
he literally works with them thats why
@@willnovak1159 He does?
Yang aura: yellow
Blake eyes: yellow
Blake aura: purple
Yang eyes: purple
Well Blake has yellow eyes because cat, Yang has purple because Tai had blue and Raven had red
@@mistressofdreams6031 wow
Yellow and Purple are complementary colors. They complete eachother (that's color theory; thanks Art student friend :) )
"The goal of the saviour is not to be lionized"
Adam has a theme called Lionize. I see what you did there
thanks for color coding the lyrics. It really helps me figure out who sings which line sometimes. They really make a good duet for this song
It is cute how Yang says Nevermore and Blake says that he won't torture her ,It is like Yang encouraging Blake.
I may not enjoy the show anymore but the soundtrack is always awesome. That I can't deny lol.
seriously...I listen to this soundtrack almost weekly, but I rarely watch the show.
@@megalomaniac7972 top tier ost. Trash writing
@@thevoidplant I'm trying to find another ost at this level now though...was gonna check out more of Jeff's stuff with red vs blue.
Then why hate watch it ?
You know, for a song called Nevermore, it's kinda funny how the theme behind it has nothing to do with crows or ravens!
yeah! i was thinking of the grimm called nevermore the first time i heard this song, haha! like the huge crow by the end of volume 1(i think)?
Amazing, that’s one of the constants for me about RWBY the music is always good.
The picture looks like they're going to drop some sick rap album together.
There’s no cause to celebrate
Another soul consumed by hate and spite
He’ll see the light of day
It’s just good to hear that
A head banger that proceeds to make me cry EVERY time
I genuinely felt bad for Adam, I think the world just didn't let him have a good choice to make and keep living. He was used as nothing more than a tool, and he did all he could to pursue what he thought was right, and he lost himself in the process
he went from pursuing Faunus equality to Cat Girls
@@FishInDaToilet tis the fate of most most men
He could of listened to Ghira and stayed on the straight and narrow, but he listened to Sienna and the cheers of his peers, and his ego was fed.
He could of listened to Blake at many points. Heck, Blake and Yang told him multiple times to go away and leave them be.
He had years to make better choices. He didn't.
@@Lin2Waterfall Maybe so, but why did those choices even seem appealing in the first place? It's beyond Adam himself.
@@Lin2Waterfall Sienna mesmo disse que ele tava no caminho errado e por isso ela foi morta
Got to admit I just like the time they are calm. It's somehow reinforce the music. Like someone looking really calm but you know they are planing to destroy the world before diner.
that intro sends chills down my spine man
Yang and Blake both look beautiful in this video
Epic song, RWBY honestly has the best soundtrack of all time
I can't tell the amount of times i listened to this
So am back listening to this again
Dude you've been a life saver for the lyrics! Much Love for all that you do!
I stopped watching RWBY awhile ago, but this song was the first one in awhile that I really liked. AS always, the lyrics and vibe went perfectly.
first half sounds like an angel flying second half action pack fighting
Tbh my biggest gripe with the bumblebee vs Adam fight is the background music. When this amazing song exists why are we listening to generic inspirational sounds
The instrumental Music is in the background
@@gamingwithtdcoco On rewatch I noticed that the instumental played when Yang and Blake got the final hit but that was brief so I don't count it
@@ragingmonkeycritic It does count
@@gamingwithtdcoco It's still missed potential
It doesn't fit the rhythm of the fight, the tone? Sure, but the song is far too wonky in its pacing in order to easily fit it in a synced combat choreography, especially since monty's animations were included which were most likely fine tuned to some different song.
This song is the first attempt the show made to humanize Adam.
Lionize?
I always appreciate it whenever they release these rwby songs and Casey, Jeff and the band kill it everytime 🔥👌🏼
Yang: I'm more like an ARMy now
Barb is Barb xD
@@mistressofdreams6031 goddammit barb
Oof XD
😡
God shut up🤣
“The goal of a saviour is not to be lionized”
Damn...
Best line in the whole song, IMO.
Shots fired
Just noticed.
Beauty and the Beast(2017): "Now and For Evermore"
RWBY: "Not Now and Nevermore"
Ow.
:0 XD
OOF
I just seriously love EVERYTHING about this song
Well, Blake is based on Belle from beauty and the beast.
@@mizumafusotrue Adam is the rose, and Yang is the beast.
Adrienne did such a phenomenal job as Yang I honestly hope she can come back in the future
I know right?! I'd love to hear her cover Armed and Ready! Casey did it so well, but I feel like it'd be fun to hear Adrienne take a stab at it.
Adrienne performs about half the lead vocals in concert. I forget if she performed Armed and Ready at RTX2018 or if that was Casey.
She is absolutely worthy of more room on the soundtrack. Obvi she's here so there can be two female leads, but I hope she gets a feature too at some point. She's amazing.
@@jasonsnider3133 Thanks for the info! Had no idea since I've never had the opportunity to go to the concert (would love to though). I actually had come across Adrienne before due to being a metalhead and finding Seven Spires one day randomly on RUclips, but had no idea of any connections to RWBY or Williams till now. Funny how things work out sometimes.
ruclips.net/video/ouaECt3w8Eo/видео.html turns out Casey did the lead for Armed and Ready (see link) but Adrienne provided backup vocals. She's the blonde in the white top on the left.
Yeah Adrienne is part of the Jeff Williams Freelance Orchestra, so she does these events.
I like that it's not just Casey doing both parts. Maybe they recorded it at the same time?
I really hope they bring back Adrienne Cowan for future songs. She and Casey kick ass together.
Dangitbobby seconded.
Agreed
Absolutely
True Dat
Eh
The fact that the lines from 3:48 to 4:10 were included in the song make me so happy. Don't get me wrong Adam is horrible but him dying isn't something to feel joy about I mean reallly we saw how Blake reacted at the end of it, so I'm immensely relieved that it was acknowledged.
Same. It's one of those weird mix of emotions where they'd probably be so relieved that he's gone for good, but so guilty for taking his life. As terrible as he was, he was still a person. I think it was a Batman movie that said "if you kill a murderer, there's still the same amount of murderers in the world". No matter how grand scheme good it is, that's still a burden on them now.
@@dirttrackart Except this wasnt murder. This was self defense. Also Batmans refusal to kill means theres more dead in the world. I believe no one is past redemption, so just chose to never go that way.
@@Crossbattle777 Sorry, justified homicide. In this case, the justification is self defense for Yang and Blake. Point is there is still blood on their hands (for good, bad, or indifferent) and they have to live with that. As much trauma as they have already been through, I'm curious to see how they handle this new one, if RT even addresses it at all later on.
@@Crossbattle777 murder is murder. If you kill someone, that's murder. That's not to say motivations and circumstances aren't important, it's just to say that that is merely the bottom line.
Even if Yang and Blake have somewhat overcome the past trauma Adam's presence inflicted upon them, the fact is that they murdered him, and likely in the same way he started, killing to protect himself and others.
This song emphasizes that regardless of how RoosterTeeth wrote him, or how fans that wanted him to be better than he ended up being, such as myself, wanted him to be, his character is one of tragedy. He never wanted to be a monster, no one ever does at first. He wanted to be lionized; someone other people could look up to, and respect. But somewhere along the way, somewhere in the shadows, he lost his way.
The "oh.", despite how I would have done it differently, has multiple interpretations, and that's better than how I would have done it.
At the end of the day, my apologies for going off topic, Blake and Yang killed Adam, and how RoosterTeeth handle how Blake and Yang handle it, especially Blake, will be the real show of whether or not M&K have any good writing sense characters wise. Because so far they've been making me lose faith for 4 volumes now.
@@colt1903 mur·der

noun

There was no premeditation. therefore not murder. It was self defense, every attack he made was against their lives. If they hadnt killed him, he wouldve killed them.
3:47 - 4:15
Can we talk about this part for a second? I like how even though Adam was a huge piece of shit and they're happy to be free of him, they still sort of mourn him. Not because he didn't deserve what happened to him but because he was probably just another young Faunus whose life was destroyed by hate if you know what I mean.
Also just in case I didn't make this clear enough, I'm not trying to justify Adam or his actions. I just like how they indicated that he probably wasn't always a monster. Sure he chose the path of violence but it's not like he just woke up one day and said "You know what? I'm kinda bored. I think I'm gonna start killing humans because I like death and violence so much."
Plus with the introduction of Ilia and her story in Volume 5 and the shorts, we also see how easy it is to barrel roll down that dark path, especially when those around you are justifying your actions. Even those with kind hearts can be corrupted in that environment if no one is there to pull you out of that.
I hate that people just assume you are trying to justify Adam’s actions & support his decisions. Like NO! Adam is a fictional character & the way his story is told is different. We like him as a villain. Plus he went down the wrong path so it makes you think they are maybe bigger people (possibly more villains) that could have more of a hateful influence towards the faunus. Like in the kingdom of Atlas.
Amen brother 🙏
No one is ever born a monster. They are made into one.
Qrow Branwen I liked that. They mourned the kid he used to be and blame the world that made him into what he became. They don’t excuse what he is, but understand WHY that’s what he is.
How do they nail every song, literally every single one of them
Someone doesn't understand literacy, do you?
THEY’RE A POWER HOUSE!! That’s why
@@nInOwarrior0312 No, like, usually artists will have songs that are flops or get _worse_ after a period of time. Jeff and Casey just don't. It's miraculous, really.
Guess you could call it a
“Miracle”????
@@Aryc11 That's pretty subjective. A lot of people would agree that Volume 5's OST was pretty weak relative to previous volumes. And in my opinion, Volume 1's soundtrack still hasn't been surpassed. But who knows? Maybe the full version of all the Volume 6 songs will finally topple it.
Just... couldn’t resist sneaking in that arm pun in the yang verse could they
GODDAMNIT BARB.
you mean the smol words under yang's knuckles?
I guess some things never change,huh? >_>
I can't see them they're to tiny
What gets me about this song is that both Blake and Yang lament having to kill Adam. They took no pleasure in it and would have been perfectly content had he just left them be. They gave him every opportunity to leave and he made his choice to press the attack, flat out telling them he will never stop hunting them. Adam brought about his own ending, suffering the consequences of the path he chose.
I also get chills at the"he'll see the light of day... nevermore" part.
They were perfectly content to let him go apart from in the last moment that they were set for blood. And Adam only came after Blake because she came to him first at Haven. Sure, Now she has taken the only thing he had in his life, The White Fang, She'll leave him alone.
@@JamieLee-zc4yu well idk if she really came to him first, it was more like a sequent of events just led her to him. Also, Adam was a good fighter and could have become a lot more without the white fang, sienna did say that he was diminishing his own talent by doing what he was doing.
@@keavinmurcia7026 Um. Not really. As in volume 4. She stated clearly she was going to take the white fang back from him and volume 5 showed she had planned to go to him.
Diminishing his talent doesn't mean he's suddenly going to be a crap fighter that can no longer hit the girl he once easily took down with one blow lol
What i notice about Adam, is that he isn't *completely* blinded by the brand. But he willingly chose to put on the mask and further blind himself with the mask and blindfold. He could have still been seen, even use it as a way to gain a following, but he chose to cover it himself and blinded himself. Hella metaphors
I feel Adrienne Cowan souds extremely close to how I would picture dunkleman's singing voice. pretty damn good
Just no
Have ever heard Barbara talk?
i wouldnt say barbs singing voice but a more matured yang. (just a bit )
"He'll see the light of day
Nevermore."
If that doesn't confirm he's dead nothing will
Or maybe it's foreshadowing for him to come back, crueler and more insane than ever. Like Tyrian.
@@destronarok785 tyrian evaded capture and was already a killer from the start, adam was stabbed through both lungs it seems and had a broken back into possibly freezing water, highly unlikely he comes back
If they bring him back, it'll be more BS than how Cinder survives
@@soni3608 yeah. At least Cinder has a heat-based power, and one could stretch to claim she kept her body warm subconsciously, without melting the ice somehow
@@zionnemakoma1398 was more thinking "at least cinder had maiden Deus ex machina." Because her semblance wouldn't be useful in that situation considering she needs to consciously do things(unless it evolved like ren's did.)
Either way Adam could not be alive at all, it's physically impossible, no amount of "this world is magical" is fixing that since we know his semblance doesn't do anything to fight against stab wounds through the lungs.
I love that even though this song is clearly about Yang and Blake finally shaking the curse of Adam from them individually and as a unit, the bridge still offers the truth that all of this was unnecessary violence and pain brought on by a tortured boy who lost his fight against his own demons.
Adam was a monster but he was also a tragedy and this song acknowledges that
One Dumb Gamer that’s what I like about Adam, you can understand why he did the stuff he did, even if you can’t justify it
@@lonewolf9578 he was a well written villain. He wasn't born a monster (or beast in this case). He was tortured & discriminated against for so long that his perceptions were warped. Sienna Khan filling his head with visions of grandeur didn't help either. He truly thought that his cause was just & his methods justified. He was too consumed by hate to understand that power alone means nothing without comrades you can use that strength to help. He only figured it out in his dying moment. That his sheer strength was overcome by the power of harmony, & not that of chaos.
MagnetoDorito exactly then crwby ruined him by turning him into your generic psycho stalker ex and then killed him off, what a fucking waste of a character with great potential
Calm down. Lol you read into things too much.
@@lonewolf9578 he had no potential for change. What he became was inevitable. He's always been obsessed with Blake from day 1. He became more brutal with his methods, more possessive of Blake, more aggressive, & more riddled with hatred. He just wasn't a person anymore. He reached his logical extreme. He lost his mind in the madness & thought that he just had to keep killing his problems to make them go away. He was too consumed by hate. There was no going back for him, & no redemption. He truly became the beast in the end. They killed him off at the right time, & for the right reasons.
"You're hiding more than your eyes"
"Youth and infatuation kept me too blind to see"
"I challenge your weak manifesto"
Good Lord this song has some good lines.
dar “ The goal of a saviour is not to be lionized “ seems powerful
Ragnurhelgon I wonder if Lionized will explain his past then present
I was thinking for a idea maybe for a Lionized song art as it’s very smart
What if Adam’s face is passive in the right/left with the blue eye and the blind red eye with the brand is combined with Moonslice as the left/right glistens more.
Just a good thought :D
@Sir Garde Absolutely agreed with that assessment. I'm frankly kind of shocked by all the people saying Adam's character was poorly written, as I think he's been handled really well by the writers this entire time. He's been portrayed very realistically, as proven by how much his character resonated with people who've known an Adam Taurus in their own lives.
Nothing about the way Adam was written, nor the way his story ended, felt lazy or unrealized to me. Adam Taurus' arc is officially at an end, and I feel it was handled with true aplomb. And this song is really the cherry on top of it all.
Ok look guys I take the middle ground in this argument.
Most people's problem with Adam is that he went from an inspiring revolutionary leader who wanted to help the Faunus to a abusive ex-boyfriend. I myself am okay with this. I believe this show's Adam's complexity. Adam was once a dedicated leader who genuinely believed in his cause and who genuinely cared about Blake. However, over time his hate for humanity and the world drove him further and further into insanity, which turned him into the monster we all loathe today. I think that this could have been executed well if we saw Adam's slow transformation from a good person into a bad person. Unfortunately, this transformation largely took place before the series began, so it couldn't be shown. Also this wasn't communicated to the audience good enough during the series itself-we see an abrupt change in Adam from the way Blake describes him to the way we actually see him in the end of Volume 3.
I accept and am totally okay with that the writers focused solely on Adam's abuse instead of his revolutionary goals because I believe this shows his complexity: his evolution from a hero who fought for a righteous cause to a villainous scumbug, all because of his insanity which was brought about by his own abuse at the hands of the humans.
@@nokachi3339 I fall under Jeff's interpretation in this song. Adam was hurt by humans, which is why he became a part of the White Fang. His version of liberation was all about him. And throughout the show you can see him sspiral. In Volume 3 he says he won't sacrifice men for a human cause. In Volume 5 he's ready to blow them up. He was never a revolutionary outside of himself. He was hurt and wanted control over his life, and did ANYTHING to get/keep it. His portrayal in Volume 5 was the problem for most, but he was great in Volume 3 and 6 imo.
Ah its finally out with louder volume!!!!!
Thank you, let me try it out
IKR! I downloaded the version from the credits and I compared this version to the one I downloaded and THIS version is better
@@MAK3L_ Definitely!
Play it louder for the adam at the back row!
Fun fact: In the art you see here, it's implied that Blake and Yang are holding hands.
So Flynt I'm curious, what did you think of the last few episodes and this volume as a whole?
I think the whole scene with Adam was handled beautifully. The fight and everything (though I wish he wasn't killed so soon after such a huge reveal). The scenes with the fight against Cordovin in her giant mech, and the Leviathan Grimm felt lack luster to me. Overall I enjoyed it though, and can't wait for next Volume.
@@FlyntofRWBY Fell into the water. We follow an old creed here: "No cadaver, death scene don't matter." Cinder already proved us right.
@@AzureSkyStudios He was stabbed in the heart and lung, broke his spine on a rock, and fell into freezing water. Plus, Kerry confirmed it in RWBY rewind. He's dead.

Hilarious that Lionize is mentioned in this song
The irony of saying “you ain’t shit” to the dude whose theme is about being The Best™ is great
Eve S
I think that’s purposefully done. I think nevermore is a response to Lionized. That would mean volume 6 ended in a (literal) swan song
I'm just waiting on the full version of Lionized at this point lol
I call it a cross-soundtrack F-U. It basically is saying "you're getting the ENTIRE POINT of being a savior wrong if you're doing this for glory".
@@nokachi3339 Adam wasn't nerfed, he was just as powerful and quick as the day at beacon, the only difference between now and then was that Yang wasn't emotional this time, but Adam was. She outplayed him bud
Jan MacGregor Hard agree, after taking multiple ass beatings from multiple antagonists in the show, and even losing her arm because her fighting style was the predictable “punch and hopefully don’t get punched” style? The obvious logical conclusion is changing her style, while Adam’s stayed the same because he A) was extremely emotional and B) never adjusted it when people could actually *block* his attacks.
This song gets better every time I listen to it.
Well the audio is fixed now, so ofcourse its better..
As with all RWBY songs. They age like a fine wine tbh.
“You may have taken the lead” Like how Adam literally took Yang’s lead punch?

#rwby for life
uhh, he was a Faunus and murder is killing humans. adam is not a human
@@TDW_0333 who are you replying to? No one mentioned murder?
good job on steal that comment
What I love about this song is that it managed to portrait Blake and Yang's feelings individually. Regardless of the recent developments in their partnership (which I'm obviously super excited about), the conflict with Adam didn't just mean a lot for them as a unit, but also separately. Blake for her past of manipulation and spite with Adam, and Yang for the mutilation that she endured by his hands. I love that despite everything the song makes it clear that this is THEIR fight for multiple reasons. And I'm even happier to see how this brought them together again, we are so lucky to have this all portrayed in such an amazing song.
And I have to give credit to those who worked on it because they actually got a second female vocalist for this! Makes me wonder if we'll see Casey and Adrienne collaborate on some other RWBY song in the future 👀
Hopefully Adrienne and Casey do and omg I love your videos
That other song being bmblb part 2 🤧👀🐝
I love your video's btw and yeah wish they can do collabs together 😂
T H E R E ' S A G A R D E N
I honestly love how Casey has a calmer more reserved voice like Blake and Adrienne has a rougher louder voice like Yang
"The goal of a savior is not to be lionized"
"This time I'm smarter"
Absolute chills hearing that come from Yang
Ciel Lionized is going to be a killer
Simply put, Adam's story can be classified as a tragedy, he let all the hatred and spite consume him so much that he's become too far gone, his death also isn't to be celebrated but lamented, that should be obvious to more people given how Blake reacted
But be realistic, who is going to lament adam?
@@diegoernestovarelaparra3820 Eruption Fang is
@@blackvial He lament what he could have being, not what he is now.
Blake never gave a shit about Adam, She’s too selfish to care about anyone but herself
Adam really was, at his core, a product of and the logical conclusion of Sienna Khan's extremist ideals and methods when she radicalized the White Fang. He was so consumed by his rage at the world that when Blake left him he only knew how to avenge, not reflect.
Yang: “I’m more like an ARMy now”
Adam: Seriously?
Blake: I know. Yang what the fuck?
Yang: Sorry, EYE guess it was a bad time, huh?
Adam: YOU’RE DEAD!
Yang and Blake: No u
Adam: oh...
One thing I'll always appreciate about this song is that while it's a justified take-down of Adam it shows both the morals of the characters and the fact that the situation that created Adam hasn't ended by having both Blake and Yang say they take no pleasure from Adam's death. That it's the story of someone who gave in to rage and spite. Which is good because it's a lead-in to the man directly responsible for sending Adam down this path: Jacques Schnee.
And then he got blasted by ironwood and Adam is rolling in his grave
Rolling in his grave? Adam got exactly what he wanted. Jacques is dead, the SDC is by all appearances defunct, and so is Atlas itself. The system he was rebelling against is down, in no small part thanks to Blake.
Thank you Flynt! This soundtrack is gonna be NUTS.
Peanuts or walnuts ?
"There's no pleasure, there's no joy." The way she sings that line just gives me chills
I feel like volume 6 had some of the best music
Fuck yeah
Damn straight
Just when you think the music can’t get any more perfect, the mad lads go and put out something even better. RWBY has the best music ever. Of all time.

oh.
this is amazing. i love this song.

The song is not a diss track but the realization of the tragedy that is Adam. Jeff got another banger on his hands folks and I can’t wait for the rest of the songs’ full releases. Great job as always Flynt!

@@DracoInduperator Nobody's perfect.
@@diegoernestovarelaparra3820 I tend to think that the story and the songs go hand in hand. The character short showed his fall. Basically, the songs show insight into what these people are THINKING. For example, One Thing is our look into Neo's mind, Red Like Roses is a view into early Ruby, et cetera. The story is AUGMENTED by the songs. Not replaced or "done better".
I love the "I Made a Vow, I'm Not Alone" and "I'm Smarter" part cuz it's literally part of the script in the fight
I can't believe it took me so long to realize - "you chose her over me?" - "what does she even see in you?" - that Adam wears the horns.
I've legit been checking your channel every few hours since the finale dropped to get the official lyrics and it was well worth the wait.
Casey with amazing vocals as always and flynt with the good lyric video as always
The final part of this song I love and that's because it addresses one of the issues brought by the community.
What happened to Adam was a waste. Sad. Frustrating. He was destroyed by his own hate and spite and because of that so much potential was lost. I know a lot of people gripe about how they could have expanded on him more but at the same time, Adam's life and death reflect some people who I've known in life. There was so much there that could have been achieved but because of the path he walked, it was just...gone.
We can gripe and be frustrated and sad and I feel that's the point Rooster Teeth was driving. Adam's death wasn't meant to be satisfying or joyful, celebrated. It's just...sad.
I can see that
I'm still salty... but I understand
I love your input
Agreed. Some people just refuse to let go of their pain, and like a splinter stuck under the skin, it poisons them with spite.
Dunno, until they'll do an ass pull to bring Adam back
We'll see RT give justice on Adam's character.... *NEVERMORE*
Yeah, I was disappointed that he died, he would’ve lived if he just left Blake and Yang alone
Yeah... Adam died because he let his hate get the best of him and in the end that hate caused his destruction. So his death isn't joyful it's...
Bittersweet
You know what i realized?
Volume 1 - Red Like Roses pt.2
Volume 3 - Mirror Mirror pt.2
Volume 5 - From Shadows pt.2 or This Time
sooo........
Volume 7 - I Burn part 2?
i need that. Also, did you notice Blake is always singing with another person? Yang too...
i think something really bad is about to happen in vol 7 but i cant clearly think what it will be
@@SamuelLopez-kd3sr , Death of Winter I guess! -__-
@@AlanTalker i was expecting something like ren's death, that would be more sad, and think about how it would affect nora, ... but... winter? i dont really think she deserves to get killed
@@SamuelLopez-kd3sr , she definitly don't deserves to die, and I don't want any good guys to die eather.
I was juste naming what could happen worse.
Adam: I lost my mind
Blake: I lost my soul
Yang: I lost my arm
One of the best end credits songs Jeff and Casey have given us (Also the addition of Adrienne was a nice touch). Can’t wait till when the Volume 6 Soundtrack releases!
WE COULD LIVE INSIDE A GARDEN OF ECSTASY~

When I read this I thought of the enchanted rose from Beauty and The Beast, then it hit me... Adam wounded Yang's robo arm with moon slice and leaves the same mark the beast got fighting the wolves, Yang dis-ARMs(Not sorry) Adam the same way the Beast took Gaston's sword.. Adam has a rose on his back.... He is the enchanted rose from the tale. I just made my brain explode.
Empress Mileena471 wait, you can GROW mdma????
So it’s just like weed!!!!!😍😍😍
BEES ARE REAL
In hell:
Roman: so you’re saying you got stabbed in the front and back by 2 girls?
Adam: yes
Roman: oh, well a Grimm ate me when I tried to kill an annoying little girl
Adam: oh
Roman: but at least a friend has my hat to remember me
Adam: at least a waterfall has my sword and my dead body to remember me
*2 seconds of silence*
Roman and Adam: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Adam: yeah some stupid blonde girl threw it in the water, I spend a lot of money on that sword
Roman: that’s sad
Adam: I know right?
Roman: well now I know why you’re here, c’mon let’s go take the train and go meet some other villains
Adam: you what is weird?
Roman: what?
Adam: you are a red hair, im a hair and aparently there is that weird girl call phyrra and the other one Penny who are also red hair
Roman: annnnnnd?
Adam:....nothing, just bring it up
The other Adam: You got stabbed in the front and back and you stayed dead? Weakling.
best fucking convo
You made me think: can Salem bring the dead back to life? Oz would have already said something so important, but Oz already hide important information...
I actualy have a problem with the whole hat part. Roman was swallowed whole so how did Neo ever get his hat, also we see in the after the fall comics that it is quite possible to survive getting swallowed whole by grimm so therefore it is impossible his hat made it out without him making it aswell.
Plus he had his cane swallowed with him, the can that can tear through a grim and has a grappling hook on it that he could use to catch his fall. Although it would be difficult to hang on to a hat while grappling back and forth between grimm and trees.
Don't mind me just listening to my new favorite Rwby song.
You're fired.
Goat man gone
Then Volume 7 songs comes in lol
As a wise man once said "i got what i deserved."
I wonder where that guy is now? I swear to freaking no one, if they bring him back, Kingsman Style, I'm so outta here
@@nInOwarrior0312 Kerry confirmed he's dead. We good
@@dirttrackart Thank goodness. Cinder's return was annoying enough. We definitely didn't need Adam coming back.
Micheal Cornbread I know see the irony of that line
I doubt he could come back. He was stabbed in the chest - twice - and fell into a waterfall (I think he hit himself on the way down) there could be no way he could be returning. uNleSs SaLeM dId hOoDoO-mAgIc-StuFf
"You think you're someone's hero. You're hiding more than your eyes.
I challenge your weak manifesto! The goal of a savior is not to be lionized!"
Awesome lyrics! Definitely one of my new favourite RWBY songs.
I CLICKED AS SOON AS I SAW THE NOTIFICATION I LOVE THIS SONG
"I'm more like an ARMy now!"
"You may have taken the lead but I'll even the score
You won the battle you won't win the war
Not now and NEVERMORE!"
W course literally my favorite part of this song.
“Oh...”

~ Rest in piece and finally relieve your *spite* ~
And Hate
Me @ the education system when I graduate
I can't wait to hear the full version of forever fall, but this is just as good
I love this song so much, I honestly couldn't help but make an Adam Taurus version of the song as a response. I call it "Forevermore" (Appropriate), I'm not a song writer so I please ask for constructive criticism when necessary. Also if anyone wants to ask why I chose certain lyrics, feel free to ask me:
(Forevermore, Forevermore)
Will you scurry away?
Or fight one more day?
My time’s now,
I’m getting what I deserve
You can pretend that you’re brave,
But I know what you fear
Rip and tear what you’ve held so dear,
Right here, Forevermore
Your loyalty and devotion,
Was it all a disguise?
Was my determination,
What made you flee my side?
I was the fated savior,
You just couldn’t visualize
I just can’t forgive a traitor,
From shadows I’ll find you, redeem me from all your lies
From conception,
United we would stand together
Until that day-
You chose their path,
You fled my own
This is your one, last chance to atone
Forevermore, Forevermore
I won’t let you betray me again!
Forevermore, Forevermore
Will you scurry away?
Or fight one more day?
My time’s now,
I’m getting what I deserve
You can pretend that you’re brave,
But I know what you fear
Rip and tear what you’ve held so dear,
Right here, Forevermore
You are just a coward,
Ran with pure disgrace
A belief that's so sour,
Like I'd forget your face
Can't run from the hunter,
Pray to escape the beast
Wilt in one hand to bring misery,
Blush in the other to end your trickery
The tale isn’t your’s to tell,
This story is mine to see it through
I won’t allow you to rebel
I’ve found you now,
You’re on your own,
Not so strong when you’re all alone
Forevermore, Forevermore
What else did I have to prove!
Forevermore, Forevermore
Knew of my disgrace,
The scars on my face
You still ran,
I’m out of forgiveness
I would have gave you the moon,
Yet you chose the sun
You had your chance and now we’re finally done
My wrath is Forevermore
I can’t forgive or forget,
There’s no way we can reset now
When you’ve ruined my life
Destiny was mine to take!
The monsters almost had their day,
But you stole that away
For that I’ll fight,
‘til you’re out of sight
Forevermore, Forevermore
I won’t let you betray me again!
Forevermore, Forevermore
Will you scurry away?
Or fight one more day?
My time’s now,
I’m getting what I deserve
You can pretend that you’re brave,
But I know what you fear
Rip and tear what you’ve held so dear,
Right here, Forevermore
EDIT: HOLY CRAP, did not expect over 100 likes so fast! To celebrate, here's a quick piece of trivia.
Originally, I planned to add more Yang-based lines, such as a version of the main chorus that goes:
It's not about what I'll gain,
It's what you'll lose
Disarmed or lifeless, You get to choose
The scars are forevermore
I decided to instead go with more of a pure Blake-based response, with Yang only being referenced in "Yet you chose the sun."
EDIT 2: Decided to rewrite the following lines to those that flow better:
You are just a coward,
Ran with your tail between legs
Did you believe I would cower?
That I'd let you get away?
EDIT 3: Damn, hit 1,000 likes. Once again, thank you all for enjoying my little song parody. Reminder that this song is also posted on my Redd.it ("MaleficKing") and where I'll also post future song parodies as they come, such as a Roman Torchwick version of "One Thing" called "Reality" and an Ozpin version of "Divide" called "Sin".
Hey this is very good!
Yes
@@adamlastnamenjoku Thank you!
Amazing
👌🏽
FUCK I Just caught up to volume 6
and all i want to say
is that i absolutely love rwby. thank you
When Yang and Blake got rid of Adam, it made me pretty emotional - Adam has been haunting Blake's conscious ever since EP 1, Volume 1. To think that she can finally move forward knowing that an immense obstacle has been removed is just njdidsonsiodsi This song makes it even better uwuuwuw
Nice anime prof pic
Possibly the best song for volume 6.
Keep in mind that neither of the girls WANTED to kill Adam. They hesitated. He had the option time and time again to leave them alone and never did. It’s not their fault that he left them no choice. What they did wasn’t murder; self-defense is NOT murder. It is protecting yourself and those you care about.
The correct term is manslaughter.
Was it self-defense? They threw away his sword and broke his aura
@@handhelder823 It was, because after all that, he was still going after half of Blake's weapon to try to keep fighting
Murder is defined as a human being killing another human being; Technically Adam never Murdered anyone, and neither has Blake.
Technically Blake was using the self defence while Adam tried to kill her. Whilist Yang backstabbed him which is considered MuRdEr.
Im just gonna say this now, Casey Lee and Jeff Williams and the rest of the musical people at rt are literal gods, every song is perfectly woven together and the vocals are amazingly beautiful
Agreed
@3:47 to @4:14 ? Best part, chills. When Adrienne goes, "...there's no pleasure, there's no joy; it's just the story of a boy who lost his way..." fuckin' goosebumps. like, her voice compliments and adds such a "Yang" vibe to it that it's insane. This is such a Bumblebee song that I'm excited for RWBY Volume 7 even more this year, why?
Because the next volume will be all about Weiss and Ruby now, and can you imagine their duo song? Honestly, RWBY Volume 6 was good, but it's setting us up for something GREAT. And, yes, favorite character is Weiss Schnee, which is why I'm so hyped and excited for volume 7, lmfao. Can't wait for the full songs of Volume 6 to come out.
I feel Big Metal Shoe is going to be a Ruby/Weiss song.
@@dmillz5501 That's 100% a Rwby/Weiss song!!
My friend: what’s you favourite song right now?
Me: NEVERMORE!
the pure emotion literally grips my heart help me
I thought it was cool that they did a duet, but I couldn't tell it was a duet because Casey and Adrienne sound almost exactly alike to my ears. There's a tiny difference if you listen closely, but if you're not paying attention, they blend together.
Yeah, I was a bit confused at first as well.
As someone who listens to Casey's voice all the time, I could tell when it wasn't her singing pretty easily, but yeah they're kind of pretty close
It becomes clearer when you realize it and when they start to sing louder
True. But once you listen to RWBY songs 24/7 you start to see the difference. Plus, I feel like Casey has that Blakey flair in her voice xD
Team Same Voice 2
I sang this on a discord server, with like 50-100 people in a vc. It was Karaoke Night, so I'm proud as heck! Thank you owo
One of the best songs in the series so far, 10/10.
