my friend the earth is living,earth has conciousness......its hard to accept it .......but its the true.......the earth gave us the materials of our body
The ending gives me massive chills, because it is left ambiguous if the protagonist of the album actually made a difference in the outcome of the future of the planet or not, you have joe cleanly singing "We will see our children growing" which has a lot of hope behind it, but at the same time he's also screaming the same phrase, which creates this sense of doom and despair, he's screaming that because he really wants to believe it, but clearly knows that we will sadly not have a good future for our children, masterpiece of a song
I’m just so lucky to be a college biology student and experience this amazing music that isn’t only beautiful from a melodic standpoint. Gojira is my favorite metal band because of their lyrics and messages in their masterpiece of an album.
“400 thousand years ago they came from outer space and gave us life here” wtf you mean?? Also their grammar is bad in most of their songs, and phrases are poorly worded.
@@idkhahahaha So what? It does not change anything about what their songs mean. They are French and despite the grammatical mistakes they still have a pretty rich vocabulary.
This is the song that got me listening to Gojira. Saw them for the first time in Orlando back in October of ‘21. I love this band! Hope they come back.
To me, this song is about overcoming eco-anxiety and finding hope and the will to fight towards a better future. *** Lyrics / my analysis: Four hundred thousand years ago They came from outer space and gave us life here And we are just taking everything for granted I don't think we should do this now And when I see the smoke around I feel like I'm not from humankind down there I feel like glaciers are my eyes And mountains are my head, my heart is ocean And I feel all alone 'Cause everybody's wrong, I fear the living What is this thing that we call hate? And that's inside of me, get out of here [first verse describes our impending environmental doom and the feelings of the protagonist - they feel alone, estranged around other people, they fear and they hate] A world is down, and none can rebuild it Disabled lands are evolving My eyes are shut, a vision is dying My head explodes, and I fall in disgrace [the bridge sounds heavier and shows a hopeless scenario that deeply affects the protagonist, as they feel like falling in disgrace] I hold my inner child within And tell him not to cry: "Don't fear the living" One day you will stand as a king And no fear can erase this light below us Each one of us is now engaged This secret we all have, this truth is growing And as a warrior, I have to fight I can already feel the love I'll discover [second verse is calmer, as if the protagonist is getting over those feelings pf despair they once had. Visions of their inner child gave them hope for the future and, with that, the will to take action - now, the protagonist is a "warrior", motivated by hope ("I can already feel the love I'll discover")] I had this dream, our planet surviving The guiding stars always growing And all the worlds, the fates all the countries They're all rebuilding at the same time I never fell and always believed in We could evolve and get older Open thy eyes and let all this flow in Now see a new hope is growing inside [third verse is, again, heavier, as the protagonist describes a more vivid picture of their dream. This time, unlike in the bridge, the heaviness sounds more empowering, and incites us to take action towards a new, different future, something better than this capitalist dystopia we have now] We will see our children growing We will see our children growing We will see our children growing We will see our children growing We will see our children growing We will see our children growing We will see our children growing We will see our children growing We will see our children growing We will see our children growing We will see our children growing We will see our children growing We will see our children growing [yes, we will. The final outro repeat this affirmation, as to not make us forget about hope. We can make a better world for our children]
Nice analysis, and i think theres a lot of truth to it. But at the beginning you skipped over the first 2 lines which alot of people won't know of but are important. "They" who came here from outer space four hundred thousand years ago is a reference to Enki and Enlil - the Annunaki (the sky people). They came to Earth from they're own, after having lived here for thousands of years they sought help with the matters they were going through at the time. They engineered a species, manipulated the DNA of a species native to earth. Its still considered pseudo to many but there's facts everywhere, one of them being human chromosome 2 has clearly had edits made to it, it's the same chromosome that's responsible for most of our intelligence. Our DNA was altered skipping millions of years of evolution, but we became too noisy, too populous. And despite a flood to set the slate clean we still remain on this Earth, look what we have done to her, and ourselves
One of my college buddies figured out the tapping section of this song by ear. The interesting thing is that he didn't even play guitar 😆🤯 I always found that to be rather impressive.
Même après cent écoutes, j’arrive toujours pas à comprendre comment un simple riff répété en boucle avec quelques variations peu donner un morceau aussi puissant…
Vous aussi vous ressentez toute cette puissance ? La connexion avec quelque chose bien au-delà ? From mars to sirius avec terra incognita ,the link et aussi the way of all flash, c'est une ode à l'élévation spirituelle , avec l'affrontement des recoins les plus sombres de son âme avant de parvenir à la lumière.
C’est surtout une chanson très élégante qui manie les mots et la mélodie à la perfection pour exprimer l’absurdité de l’humanité qui a perdu sa connexion avec sa mère, la nature et qui l’assasine à petit feu.

Cette chanson est un véritable bijou, mais je crois que la version live qu'ils ont enregistrée au Silver Cord Studio en 2018 surpasse la version studio originale.

This takes me on a journey deep down inside. I discover thunder, storms, high mountains, raging oceans and most importantly : tenacious hope.
Tenacious hope...that's a great expression...I like that a lot
"tenacious hope" thanks, that's my band name now

I’m completing a project on mass extinctions, and listening to this album and magma really sets the mood for the Permian Triassic mass extinction!

*** Lyrics / my analysis:
Four hundred thousand years ago
They came from outer space and gave us life here
And we are just taking everything for granted
I don't think we should do this now
And when I see the smoke around
I feel like I'm not from humankind down there
I feel like glaciers are my eyes
And mountains are my head, my heart is ocean
And I feel all alone
'Cause everybody's wrong, I fear the living
What is this thing that we call hate?
And that's inside of me, get out of here
[first verse describes our impending environmental doom and the feelings of the protagonist - they feel alone, estranged around other people, they fear and they hate]
A world is down, and none can rebuild it
Disabled lands are evolving
My eyes are shut, a vision is dying
My head explodes, and I fall in disgrace
[the bridge sounds heavier and shows a hopeless scenario that deeply affects the protagonist, as they feel like falling in disgrace]
I hold my inner child within
And tell him not to cry: "Don't fear the living"
One day you will stand as a king
And no fear can erase this light below us
Each one of us is now engaged
This secret we all have, this truth is growing
And as a warrior, I have to fight
I can already feel the love I'll discover
[second verse is calmer, as if the protagonist is getting over those feelings pf despair they once had. Visions of their inner child gave them hope for the future and, with that, the will to take action - now, the protagonist is a "warrior", motivated by hope ("I can already feel the love I'll discover")]
I had this dream, our planet surviving
The guiding stars always growing
And all the worlds, the fates all the countries
They're all rebuilding at the same time
I never fell and always believed in
We could evolve and get older
Open thy eyes and let all this flow in
Now see a new hope is growing inside
[third verse is, again, heavier, as the protagonist describes a more vivid picture of their dream. This time, unlike in the bridge, the heaviness sounds more empowering, and incites us to take action towards a new, different future, something better than this capitalist dystopia we have now]
We will see our children growing
We will see our children growing
We will see our children growing
We will see our children growing
We will see our children growing
We will see our children growing
We will see our children growing
We will see our children growing
We will see our children growing
We will see our children growing
We will see our children growing
We will see our children growing
We will see our children growing
[yes, we will. The final outro repeat this affirmation, as to not make us forget about hope. We can make a better world for our children]

Ear-gasmic
Gojira is power
Power is Gojira
life is gojira
Gojira is all
all is Gojira
Oh god I cant decide if i like this version or the live studio recording better. They're both different but really good.
On god bruh
When depression hits me the hardest, this song is my cure
I hope this outlasts humanity..
Nice profile picture
Oh yeah definitely it will. It's always fun to speculate but I'm pretty sure it bears out scientifically.

This is my fave song on this album which is my fave from these beasts.
Amazing song
Somptueuse et criante de vérité, toujours une foule de sensations à l'entendre
Goosebumps, after listening again to this marvelous piece of art a long time ago, since 2009 🥹🥹
Amazing song. One of my favorite songs back in highschool. Took my mind away from so many problems.
What... no comments? Cmon people... pull your finger out
It's a very good song. I know it from the live version so the CD is a bit odd.
There are other versions that are more popular
Interesting choice of words...

I am not worthy
None of us are.
this song is really hard to play
The left hand scream: "JUST CANNOT MOVE MY ARMS AND LEGS, I'M PARALYZED
DON'T RECALL HOW TO FREE MYSELF FROM THIS"
It is really hard to play. And I’ve been playing since I was 12 years old, I’m 38 now.
Its hard to remember all the note variations but its not technically really difficult

Damn this shit fucking rips
This lyrics are that great Gojira tries to make our planet a better place for us fuck us save our animals and their environment i'am so sad
Their voice at this one reminds me of Arcturus at their beginnings
I like the part where we will see our children growing
we will see our children dying....
