    I am the chosen one. And with this voice i can compose, a new sound, an anomaly.
    I want to see words fall from this pen onto these lines. I want to see me and my friends rise above in these crucial times. Hear me now, as i find myself, my feelings hold me down.
    Without words, communication and the passion in our brother's lives, are never heard. Without love the capabilities of our hearts are never reached.
    We have to open our minds, open our hearts. I've never felt so empty; my words have never fallen so short.
    I try to fight these changes but i lack confidence.
    Everyday i wake, time wears me down, i am falling apart...
    I want to see words fall from this pen onto these lines. I want to see me and my friends rise above in these crucial times. Hear me now; as i find myself, my feelings hold me down. And as i rise up i always fall to the ground...
    even though i shall fall i will always stand up, dress the wounds, breathe in the air, this is who i am , i am an anomaly...
    Note: Waking up everyday to this sometimes uninspiring world is what keeps us going. But the dreams and visions we have before we wake, is what keeps us alive..

      Shocking that they never "made it". Disgrace man. Even me in loley South Africa have followed them for the last 15 years or so.
      They talk about luck in the industry, but this surpasses it on so many levels.

    LITERALLY ONE OF THE BEST BANDS THAT CAME OUT ON RISE RECORDS AND HAD NO RECOGNITION. YOU CAN LISTEN TO ALL THEIR ALBUMS AND NOT GET THAT CRINGY PUMPED UP OVERLY PLAYED OUT BREAKDOWN FEELING. YOU CAN TELL THESE GUYS LOVE THIS SHIT. just my opinion.

      Hits even harder when you find out he was in a bad place throughout all of it... That's coming from me, who was in a bad place in life throughout all of It Prevails and loved all their lyrics the same, only to find out this guy is now sober with the release of their latest EP 👍

      @xxhardforcorexx1231 9 років тому

      Frank Garcia Are you fucking serious? It Prevails didn't start it all. They're a 2004 band and it's been around since the 90s. I will agree with you that they deserve more attention, though. I didn't learn about them until I heard their cover of Blank Space.

    • @corymathson4533
      @corymathson4533 9 років тому +4

    • @xxhardforcorexx1231
      @xxhardforcorexx1231 9 років тому

      cory mathson If not, a band with the exact same name did, jackass. Excuse me if I'm new to this band. They play the same kind of music and have been around for quite some time. I figured they just had a new look, like any band that's been around for eleven years.

    • @MisterPowerGaming
      @MisterPowerGaming 9 років тому +5

      xxhardforcorexx I, Prevail did the blank space cover, It Prevails is a completely different band.

    • @xxhardforcorexx1231
      @xxhardforcorexx1231 9 років тому

      Feenom Arts That's lame, their name is too close to It Prevails, which is much older than them. Their new album cover looks too close to A Day To Remember's Homesick too. I like their cover of Blank Space, but this is the band I've been listening to the whole time since I heard that cover thinking it was them. This is the band I really like. I doubt I'm missing out on much with I, Prevail anyway, but thanks for setting me straight.

    @Mr.Skeleton. 13 років тому +7

    Honestly who could dislike It Prevails and what they stand for? There is PURE emotion in every song. Their lyrics talk about real life hardships and struggles, they help you stay positive and give you a whole knew look on life. This is true melodic metalcore!

    It Prevails paved the way for all modern melodic hardcore and always did it better. such meaningful, heartfelt guitar, and lyrics that still makes me smirk looking back at the 21 year old I used to be...
    anyone who wants more It Prevails, check out Ian's other current band Unarmed, more skate punk like Bad Religion, but it hits the spot. Please make another It Prevails album Ian, we are dying after almost ten years bro.

    It prevails never ceases to amaze me, this song in particular. This band has an awesome sounding vocalist with inspiring lyrics. Two extremly talented guitarists with well placed, beautiful, and creative riffs. A bassist that does so much more for the band than in most hardcore/meliodic hardcore bands. An intelligent drummer that always thinks of new fills that aren't alike at all, while keep the beat. Plus, all of their songs have serious musical structure. It Prevails, keep up the good work.

    To those wondering if they are new to Rise. The answer is no, they used to be on Rise. We filmed this video in October 2010 but the song was released in 2007 on Rise. - Justin (The Director)

    Metalcore are bands like The Devil Wears Prada, As Blood Runs Black, August Burns Red, etc. This is Melodic Harcore, or you can call it Hardcore. It doesn't matter to me. But I've listened to these guys for about 3 years, and these dudes will always have the most influence in my life than any other band.

    @sacredxpain Not at all. Ian the lead singer is a very vocal atheist and it permeates through the lyrics that he writes.
    Look up their song explanation content off their first album and read the lyrics online, they come with a note where he clearly states he's an atheist.
    Source...I've talked to him a few times and we're friends on facebook.

    It's better that they're underrated so people who really dig melodic hardcore can enjoy their music before it hits mainstream media, you know people who enjoy good music don't want their tunes be ruined by mainstream listeners aka hipsters.
