FOR UNDEROATH FANS AND OTHER METAL HEADSWell I posted this on my Myspace a while back, and I decided since i'm back on here I will post it here to spread the word of God to the Roosterteeth Community. I done this for the soul purpose that I love God and I am a firm believer of God, and I think it's important for people who listen to such music as Underoath,The Devil Wears Prada,As I Lay Dying or any other Christian Metal bands to understand the meaning of the songs that these bands produce. I am not saying that I am 100% correct on this but from what i've learned from the Gospel this is what the lyrics are saying to me. Hope you enjoy.
Translation of Underoath- In Regards to Myself
Wake up! Wake up! My God!
This is not a test!
-(wake up and realize you need God in your life)
And it's not too late to come clean
Get it off your chest
-(its not to late for you to confess your sins and have God in your life)
So steady your hand before your face and concentrate
There's got to be some stable ground
Left to walk on
-(Pray to God about changing your ways and have a stable Christian walk)
So tear another page from the book
Are you asleep or just alone?
Clear this room from your lungs
-(Are you sleeping and ignoring God? Or are you just alone and without God?, clear the evil from you and find God)
Pull yourself together
Pull yourself together, man
Pull yourself together
Pull yourself together
-(Pull yourself together and find God)
On your back,
You're sleeping in a bed of shame
-(Spiritually sleeping and ignoring God which is shameful)
Let the light breath some new life into this room
It's what keeps you coming back
-(Let God breathe his Spirit into your life, for is his Spirit is what keeps you living)
Made up of insatiable taste
Bury your head in your hands
And sing into yourself
-(Pray to God to breathe his Spirit into your life)
Oh!
-(OH!)
Just what are you so afraid of?
What are you so afraid of?
-(What is it that is keeping you from finding God?)
You're staring truth in the face
So come on down
What are you so afraid of?
-(Your staring the Word of God in the face, So come on down and listen to it and give your life to God)
You're busy living now, aren't you?
You're busy making vows
You're coming unglued
-(Your to busy living life however you feel like it, instead of a life with God, and you are are not at one with Christ, so you are becoming "unglued")
Time is shorter than you know
-(Jesus is coming back. We just never know when, it could be today, or next week. But he's coming"
I know the light is blinding to the naked eye
-(Life is blind(nothing) without Jesus)
So why don't you take steps away from being alone?
-(So why don't you take steps away from being without Christ and take steps towards finding Christ)
I swear, it's not too late for you
-(It's not to late for you to find God)
It's all worth reaching for
It's all worth reaching for
It's all worth reaching for
The hand to pull you out
It's all worth reaching for
The hand to pull you out
-(Reaching for Jesus is all worth it, even through the trials and hardships in your life, reaching out for Christ in the end is all worth reaching for)
Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!
And step outside your box
Wake up!
-(Wake up from ignoring God and step out and show your love for God!)
Hopefully you take something from this and find God if you haven't already.
