These words spoke to me today and I felt encouraged to share. This is the Friday edition to my heavy metal words of encouragement!
"Paramount"- August Burns Red Song link: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=w55YCDzZjvA
Are you walking through fire? You have a friend. Are you stuck in a nightmare? My friend, you have a light to make it end. ..... You have hope, you have us. We can put it all back together. You have hope. We have trust in You. Don't bury your ability. Don't give up on your strength. Regret makes you a marionette, Holding the strings, not letting you forget. Do not be weary! Find a path through the night. Do not be weary! Your strength will give you sight. All around are thieves. Oppression their regime. Look past your reflection, In another's direction. You have all you need from your imperfections. You're the silent minority. The compliant authority. Anyone can rip others apart. So reassemble the broken parts. ...... Face tomorrow, face tomorrow. Settle your yesterdays. Your future, your future, Is too bright to burn out. Forget the things they want you to believe. Forget the things they want you to become. On your back are the injured. They'll never determine your outcome. Walking through fire. You have a friend. Stuck in a nightmare. A light to make it end. You're the Hero who can show us, Our tragedy is not tragic We are not alone, You are by our side. Remind us how to fly.
It's come to my attention of late, and especially through connection of this song, that us anons were created by God Himself for this exact moment in time. To show the normies and others that they shouldn't believe the lies that the masters of deceit have told us. To show them that we shouldn't become what they want us to become; godless slaves for their abominable system. There are going to be confused masses, people who don't understand what's happening. They'll be walking through fire like the rest of us, but we know who's in our corner. The injured will be carried on our backs through the storm as the strength of God holds us steady as a rock, weathered but not fallen. It is paramount that we push onward for those who cannot press on. Our "tragic" sacrifice is not tragic at all, but the love of the King flowing through us to others as we guide and protect them moving forward. "Do not be weary!" Don't give up on your ability or your strength! Christ is the Hero that will show us the way! And He will teach us how to fly once more.
I've seen ABR live. great musically but i just never saw the appeal in the growling delivery. my ears just cant make up out the words.. EVER. The more lyrics i read out of curiosity the more i like them over all
