I love fights where the last bit is just the boss throwing out any pretense of mechanics and just trying to flat-out overpower you at the end, and it's a race to out-DPS them while healing through all the damage. Really sells the desperation of the fight for her.
@arbiter771 Hades, Meteon, and the new final all have a final phase that does this. They get damage buffs every time they run through their mechanics and will kill you if you somehow dont kill them Edit: Meteon got autocorrected to meteor which is objectively funny
Unfortunately in normal that attack hits like a paper towel lol, even after 3-4 cycles, but in savage it really will be peak, Harrowing hell 2 maybe? 👀
Now that I actually hear the lyrics. This is a song of utter desperation masked as a thunder dome epic fight song. Stating that they're fading away and that they're losing everything they are. That they're being forced into a corner yet they choose to fight against their fate even if it makes their own death faster. This is the song of someone who is at risk of burning out all they are just to survive. In short. The song slaps
Also an allegory to actual WWE/pro-wrestling which the raid so far is basing themselves on. Many pro-wrestlering/WWE becomes stars but in the process destroy their body (and mind if you count CTE) due to their careers. Vince McMahon is known for doing some shady stuff to his WWE stars or encouraging the use of performance enhancing drugs for the showmanship similar to how the third boss does in the middle of the fight or the entire concept of using feral souls to enhance one's battle capabilities.
I may hate 90% of what Dawntrail is throwing down narratively, but among those is certainly not the raid. Not only does the music slap super hard, but the story is actually engaging.

I dropped this on the hour-long version because it was up first but I'll put them here too - my rough outline of the lyrics after 4 hours of listening on constant repeat (I may be obsessed). Tonight our city bleeds red, blue and green, As I walk in the dark, unseen. My lost greatness I was draped in, The colours in my mind are fading, gone. They’re gone, they’re gone, all gone. A girl looks to the stars and dares to dream Of the world she'll make her mark in, see. I stand strong in my mirror, staring back I realise that girl is gone, She’s gone, she’s gone, I’m gone, Climbed every mountain, made it to the top, I had it all, or so I thought. Traded tomorrow for a lie And found the price too high. My clock is ticking, counting down to naught, I’m out of time, why did it stop? I'll bet my life before it's lost, The final line I'll cross. Ain’t no going back, no going back, no going back no. What light left here inside, I’ll suffocate if that’s what it takes, oh. A thousand men who cast me aside, Turn their backs and leave me to die. You can try, can try, come try but I will survive. No going back, no going back, no never, you'll never again know me. No going back, no going back, no coming back from the edge. Look in my eyes, yeah I know you’ll understand. (Somebody help, my misery’s taking me.) Made up my mind now there ain’t no going back. (Somebody help, I’m losing what’s left of me.) Made up my mind, now my heart’s demanding, I’m ready to fight til’ there’s one left standing. Tonight, lightning will strike, thunder will follow, You’re gonna give it all to me, To me, to me, to me, I gotta believe you’ll set me free. Tonight my circle finally comes complete, At last, up from the dark I’m free. The music’s swelling, crowd is chanting, For this moment fear’s an afterthought. It’s gone, it’s gone, all gone. I look out to the crowd and there I see A thousand little girls, all me. I’ll turn the tables there, I’m fighting back. I’ll bring the lightning, now it’s on. It’s on, it’s on, you’re gone. (repeat bridge & chorus)
Slowing down the chorus, it sounds more like this: Ain't no going back, no going back, no going back now What light's left here inside, I'll suffocate if that's what it takes Oh, and those who lived to cast me aside, Turn their backs and leave me to die You can try, can try - come try, but I will survive!
We had two Astrolagins, and they couldn't keep up even with no one dead or at least one or two with a stack debuff. Took 3 tries and they were about to fail again if we waited a few seconds longer. @Fexghadi
As a healer, that was the easiest part. Pop a CD or two and just spam. It's when everyone is running frantically while being blown up that it's hard. I don't get people saying the laser spam is hard.
First thing I thought about was the RGB lights in my computer (I didn't want them, but that's what was available, because most of us do lol). Those lights are right on top of my graphics card that looks just like the Arcadion tower itself.
"i'll suffocate if thats what it takes" goes so hard, the sheer determination and will to do anything it takes, to truly give it all, just to win and free herself from her doomed fate, love this song a lot

This is the fourth raid tier (following Alexander the Creator, Alphascape, and Eden's Verse) where each fight has a different theme. Unlike those three, none of the songs were reused from older content and we got four entirely new tracks.
It's pretty typical for the 4th fight of the 1st savage tier to just reuse the BGM; even the fourth fight of Pandaemonium savage reuses Hic Svnt Leones. The only exception so far has been Deltascape 4.0, the 4th fight of the 1st savage tier of the Omega raid.
I'm not sure if it counts given these songs were released simultaneously, but this "reuses" the green room theme - I suppose in that way, it's like the first Pandaemonium raids where the Pandaemonium private instance (gate) theme, the P1-3 theme, and Hic Svnt Leones are all reorchestrations of each other. E: Floor 1 also seems to be a reorchestration using the same motifs! Which makes a lot of sense, given the bosses.
2 of my friends and i had a really rough group for her last night. We were extremely far behind on the enrage, and at the end it was myself on gunbreaker and the paladin as the only ones left weathering the laser. For the penultimate one the Paladin Covered me and used Hallowed Ground to soak it. The next one he died and i had to Superbolide, and right as my invuln wore off i crit my Lionheart and finished the fight right as she was about to start firing again. It was peak cinema. Putting a soft enrage in normal was peak.
I may be a little bit late but I realised today in her lyrics that while she seems strong and determinded on her goal she actually is desperate and don't know what to do and asking for help.
@@SofaKingWeTodEd maybe? i don't hear the extra syllable but it's possible it's just too fast to distinguish in that part. i just assumed they were using 'thunder' colloquially, as in a 'thunderbolt', as another word for lightning

@Lanaur_ it probably is but i always here "girls" something so thought I'd throw it out there as an idea. Like she looks into the crowd and sees her youth and the person she was egging her on to get her life back
I hear "A thousand little girls love me" because they idolize her and remind her of her sisters. its more pressure she needs to win on top of the mounting pressure from the post fight cutscene
I think this one line in the chorus goes like this: “What light’s left here inside I’ll suffocate, if that’s what it takes!” She’s saying that she’ll kill what light/honor is left in her, if that’s what it takes to survive. I think it goes well with her saying that she’ll cross the final line.

I think it's "A last step from the dark," not "At last up from the dark". She's not out of the dark yet, not free yet, but there's only one step left (claiming a soul) before the circle is complete and she's back to normal.
And I live to rule by the sword Slashing through the every inch of the power The power in you as I sit, as I stand By the table, I command my kingdom I'm the knight of the wind
No joke, there was a thunderstorm when I ran that raid for the first time and I got a power outage for a few minutes. Logged back in to my character on dead on the ground with everyone gone. "Lightning will strike" all right :D
Brute Bomber's theme has the same melodies too, it's the Arcadion motif or at least the first tier. Pandaemonium did the same for the first tier. Alexander too to an extent (Moebius' melody can be heard in Locus). Common trend with raids and the entire game in general tbh.
Between Ixion here, the Queen Bee in phase 2, and the King Bomb... Not to mention the 'mysterious benefactor' head that I've got good cash on being a Kuja analogue... We're fighting through FFIX's iteration of FFX's Fiend Arena as brought to you by Xenoblade.
I am praying so hard for my boy Kuja to show up in some form.... though so far I'm not getting a Kuja vibe from the boss person. He'd never limit himself to just "hmmm most intriguing", he'd feel compelled to monologue about the theatrical perfection of what's going down. If I were to pin it on someone from IX it's the most like Garland. Also I wonder, cause we did technically have monster fights in IX, in the form of the Knight's House in Treno... There wasn't terribly much lore to that place tho, iirc.
That's why I'm putting my bet on a Kuja-type figure. He wasn't as theatrical, but someone in a similar role as King would be able to restrain himself for a round of fights or two since y'know. We're still minor leaguers. To him, our fourth round was just a pleasant surprise. That Elezen we ran into gave off *major* vibes after all.
The anime tournament arc is real. I seriously think this is my new favorite song from 14, wasn't sure they would ever top To The Edge but here we are. It really does sound like something ripped right out of a Shounen final arc AND I LOVE IT!!!!
Soken has written some pretty amazing rock songs over the years, but I gotta say, this one might be the best yet. Could be stacked up there with any of the late 70s/early 80s hard rock bangers. Vocals especially giving echoes of Ann Wilson/Patty Smyth
We getting a whole lotta nice monsterfolk for monsterfukkers of all types. A big Jinko with beeg paws A Queen Bee Idol for those with more vanilla taste. Nothing wrong with that. Akuma with explosives And Eden Ramuh's niece. I'm honestly curious what monsters they're going to include for the next matches. I hope one of the bosses ate a dinosaur's soul. lol
God this song is so lit. Chrissy annihilated these vocals. As a massive FF14 fan and a lifelong musician I love e how amazing the muaic continues to be in this game.
She sounds desperate in this song, and for a reason, not even mentionning the same leitmotiv as her little sister's fight of M1. This raid story went from : Oh cool, awesome fights with low stakes to ... these fighters contracting cyberpsychosis at 20yo and dies. Shit, it went dark pretty fast.
It reminds me of Final Fantasy 16. You have the ability to summon and become these incredibly powerful beasts, but doing so slowly kills you, and there’s little to nothing you can do to stop it
Yeah I mean they need it to ramp up eventually as good as a tournament arc can be the arc needs stakes. She even leaves basically saying... I have to beat you I need your soul to survive. Like finding out the arcadion has this dark secret and the populous can't really take losing another pillar of its society right after jalool and sphenes death
If the next two tiers maintain this level of quality this raid series is going to be my favorite instanced content in the game. Say what you will about the writing of Dawntrail, but the devs knocked it out of the park with the new dungeons, trials, and raids
Dawntrail shaping up to be like Stormblood where the writing is polarizing but the actual gameplay content is off the charts, exciting if they keep it up.
Hearing this song gave me a lot of the same feelings that hearing Oblivion for the first time, I love this song so much it;s easily one of my favorite raid themes in the game
Everyone else on my first run: "God damn this song is hype af!!" Me, listening to the lyrics and what she's saying as I'm fighting: "Damn...she's in genuine pain...what happened to you?"

I dropped this on the hour-long version because it was up first but I'll put them here too - my rough outline of the lyrics after 4 hours of listening on constant repeat (I may be obsessed).
Tonight our city bleeds red, blue and green,
As I walk in the dark, unseen.
My lost greatness I was draped in,
The colours in my mind are fading, gone.
They’re gone, they’re gone, all gone.
A girl looks to the stars and dares to dream
Of the world she'll make her mark in, see.
I stand strong in my mirror, staring back
I realise that girl is gone,
She’s gone, she’s gone, I’m gone,
Climbed every mountain, made it to the top,
I had it all, or so I thought.
Traded tomorrow for a lie
And found the price too high.
My clock is ticking, counting down to naught,
I’m out of time, why did it stop?
I'll bet my life before it's lost,
The final line I'll cross.
Ain’t no going back, no going back, no going back no.
What light left here inside,
I’ll suffocate if that’s what it takes, oh.
A thousand men who cast me aside,
Turn their backs and leave me to die.
You can try, can try, come try but I will survive.
No going back, no going back, no never, you'll never again know me.
No going back, no going back, no coming back from the edge.
Look in my eyes, yeah I know you’ll understand.
(Somebody help, my misery’s taking me.)
Made up my mind now there ain’t no going back.
(Somebody help, I’m losing what’s left of me.)
Made up my mind, now my heart’s demanding,
I’m ready to fight til’ there’s one left standing.
Tonight, lightning will strike, thunder will follow,
You’re gonna give it all to me,
To me, to me, to me, I gotta believe you’ll set me free.
Tonight my circle finally comes complete,
At last, up from the dark I’m free.
The music’s swelling, crowd is chanting,
For this moment fear’s an afterthought.
It’s gone, it’s gone, all gone.
I look out to the crowd and there I see
A thousand little girls, all me.
I’ll turn the tables there, I’m fighting back.
I’ll bring the lightning, now it’s on.
It’s on, it’s on, you’re gone.
(repeat bridge & chorus)
Good work
I think that second line is
"I thought greatness, I was draped in"
Other than that, awesome stuff.
@@proy3 I think it's 'I'm not the grayness I was draped in' since she talks about colors right after maybe?
@@proy3 Could be. Or maybe "My lost greatness?"
I love the singer's voice but her accent is kinda hard for me to figure out sometimes!
Slowing down the chorus, it sounds more like this:
Ain't no going back, no going back, no going back now
What light's left here inside,
I'll suffocate if that's what it takes
Oh, and those who lived to cast me aside,
Turn their backs and leave me to die
You can try, can try - come try, but I will survive!
Keeping everyone alive during the final sequence is a Top 3 healer moment all-time for me

@@FexghadiIt was just fun, don’t think too hard about it
We had two Astrolagins, and they couldn't keep up even with no one dead or at least one or two with a stack debuff. Took 3 tries and they were about to fail again if we waited a few seconds longer. @Fexghadi

As a healer, that was the easiest part. Pop a CD or two and just spam. It's when everyone is running frantically while being blown up that it's hard. I don't get people saying the laser spam is hard.
Im glad they made a game for this song
For those wondering the Vocalist here is Chrissy Costanza. She is the lead vocalist for Against the Current
wtf i havent followed them for a while and here they are, last i heard them on a music video is one from League.
“Tonight our city bleeds red, blue, and green.”
Our Job role colors. She’s legit out for blood.
It's extra clever as a play on RGB, the color range for digital light sources
Or pixels. I was thinking pixels
First thing I thought about was the RGB lights in my computer (I didn't want them, but that's what was available, because most of us do lol). Those lights are right on top of my graphics card that looks just like the Arcadion tower itself.
i was looking for an answer to this everywhere, great catch
"i'll suffocate if thats what it takes" goes so hard, the sheer determination and will to do anything it takes, to truly give it all, just to win and free herself from her doomed fate, love this song a lot
A non-Hyur female antagonist that has a J-rock theme song sung by a female vocalist with lyrics that talk about her desperation and how there's no going back from where she is now, who can also transform into a sexy elemental demigod when you fight her. Welcome back, Ysayle.
Exactly
We waited patiently and were rewarded for it, no doubt
...by the Twelve you're right.

Soken really just dropped The Protomen Act 3 and thought nobody would notice
yeeeeesss! exactly what i thought!

Based take from the Resolve of Tunes.
Still forever waiting. Especially after Light up the Night was such a banger in Act 2. This'll do for now though!
YES EXACTLYYYY.
Chrissy Constanza is everywhere now, not that i'm complaining everything she sings in is top tier
This is the fourth raid tier (following Alexander the Creator, Alphascape, and Eden's Verse) where each fight has a different theme. Unlike those three, none of the songs were reused from older content and we got four entirely new tracks.
@@Auheen-SCreator reuses Locus and Metal, while Alphascape reuses Primogenitor.
It's pretty typical for the 4th fight of the 1st savage tier to just reuse the BGM; even the fourth fight of Pandaemonium savage reuses Hic Svnt Leones. The only exception so far has been Deltascape 4.0, the 4th fight of the 1st savage tier of the Omega raid.
@@richardwicker8456to be fair e4s isnt a door boss so i dont think its fair to include it there
I'm not sure if it counts given these songs were released simultaneously, but this "reuses" the green room theme - I suppose in that way, it's like the first Pandaemonium raids where the Pandaemonium private instance (gate) theme, the P1-3 theme, and Hic Svnt Leones are all reorchestrations of each other.
E: Floor 1 also seems to be a reorchestration using the same motifs! Which makes a lot of sense, given the bosses.
@@richardwicker8456 Hic Svnt Leones is only used in P4, sharing a leitmotif doesn't mean the song as a whole is reused.
2 of my friends and i had a really rough group for her last night. We were extremely far behind on the enrage, and at the end it was myself on gunbreaker and the paladin as the only ones left weathering the laser. For the penultimate one the Paladin Covered me and used Hallowed Ground to soak it. The next one he died and i had to Superbolide, and right as my invuln wore off i crit my Lionheart and finished the fight right as she was about to start firing again. It was peak cinema. Putting a soft enrage in normal was peak.
Man, imagine the canonical implications of that conclusion. To be *so close,* yet *so far* from what you think will save you must have DESTROYED her.

I'm scared for how this raid story is going to end, probably with me in tears like this game has a habit of doing to me lol.
I may be a little bit late but I realised today in her lyrics that while she seems strong and determinded on her goal she actually is desperate and don't know what to do and asking for help.
Even killing someone innocent. That's why she struggles
FF14 is great because it turns boss fights into rock concerts and I *love* that for us
That's why mechanics are sometimes difficult. Ever tried doing mechanics while headbanging to the song? 😅
@leonielorenz4241 yes. So many times.
This song fucking rocks
until i was able to listen to it clean here i didn't notice the 'lightning will strike, thunder will fall'
Follow** Thunder will fall doesn’t make sense.
kinda disappointed they didn't have "thunder will roll" as a ramuh callback
@@thebaddestguyit's possible, we don't have official lyrics yet.
@@SofaKingWeTodEd maybe? i don't hear the extra syllable but it's possible it's just too fast to distinguish in that part. i just assumed they were using 'thunder' colloquially, as in a 'thunderbolt', as another word for lightning
I feel like it is "lightning will strike, thunder will follow" it is just that the "-low" part is a bit muffled by the guitar but you can hear it.
Soken is channeling some serious fighting game energy with these bangers.
I was wondering why the lyrics say "Tonight our city bleeds red blue and green"
Then I realized... DPS, Tank, Healer
It's crazy how much this sounds like Casey Lee Williams was outsourced to make this.
With sprinkle of Takeharu Ishimoto.

Heck with it - I'll throw my hat in the ring. Here's what I got for the lyrics
[Verse 1]Tonight our city bleeds red blue and green
As i walk in the dark unseen
(To find the greener side restricted?)
The colors in my heart are fading on
Their gone their gone all gone
A girl looks to the stars and dares to dream
Of the world she'll make her mark in seen
I stand strong in my mirror staring back
I realize that girl is gone
Shes gone shes gone all gone
[Pre-Chorus] Climbed every mountain made it to the top
I had it all or so I thought
Traded tomorrow for a lie
And felt the price too high
The clock is ticking counting down to naught
I'm outta time why did it stop
I'll bet my life before it's lost
The final line I'll cross
[Chorus] Ain't no going back no going back no going back to the white light
Left here inside I'll suffocate if thats what it takes
Oh
And those who meant to cast me aside
Turn their backs and leave me to die
You can try can try come try but I will survive
No going back no going back won't ever no never again no
No going back no going back no coming back from the edge
Look in my eyes yeah I know youll understand
{Somebody help my misery's taking me}

I look out to the crowd and there I see
A thousand little (girls all me?)
Turn the tables yeah I'm fighting back
I'll bring the lightning now it's on
It's on it's on you're gone
[Repeat Pre-Chorus]
[Repeat Chorus]
I think (girls all me) may be "ghosts of me"
@Lanaur_ it probably is but i always here "girls" something so thought I'd throw it out there as an idea.
Like she looks into the crowd and sees her youth and the person she was egging her on to get her life back
I hear "A thousand little girls love me" because they idolize her and remind her of her sisters. its more pressure she needs to win on top of the mounting pressure from the post fight cutscene
I think this one line in the chorus goes like this:
“What light’s left here inside I’ll suffocate, if that’s what it takes!”
She’s saying that she’ll kill what light/honor is left in her, if that’s what it takes to survive. I think it goes well with her saying that she’ll cross the final line.
toward the end of chorus it sounds like "Lightning will strike, Thunder will follow"
LOVE everything about this fight. The song, the mechanics, the environment. A masterpiece.
if this game came out like 20 years ago id hear this in so many amvs of like roxas tearing up some heartless (good!)
or goku tearing up with majin vegeta

No joke, there was a thunderstorm when I ran that raid for the first time and I got a power outage for a few minutes. Logged back in to my character on dead on the ground with everyone gone. "Lightning will strike" all right :D
AND OUR VOICES ARISE IN A GLORIOUS CHORUS. "Would."
The singer is Chrissy Costanza from Against the Current. What a collab ;-;
Me and the 2nd tank in my group both said in unison "WOULD" I've never made quicker friends with a random stranger in my life

Absolute banger, they knocked it out of the park with the music in Dawntrail
If you go listen to music from the first raid, there’s a motif there, which is fitting since the two of them are sisters.
Pretty much the entire raid series even the green room, the waiting room, etc all have the motif.
The arena layout is actually the exact same as well.
Brute Bomber's theme has the same melodies too, it's the Arcadion motif or at least the first tier. Pandaemonium did the same for the first tier. Alexander too to an extent (Moebius' melody can be heard in Locus). Common trend with raids and the entire game in general tbh.
I love the tiny little detail in the lyrics, "lightning will strike, thunder will fall" that's the same line in ramuh's theme. Clever!
Between Ixion here, the Queen Bee in phase 2, and the King Bomb...
Not to mention the 'mysterious benefactor' head that I've got good cash on being a Kuja analogue...
We're fighting through FFIX's iteration of FFX's Fiend Arena as brought to you by Xenoblade.
It would fit extremely well as Kuja has a secondary identity as "King" that secretly runs the auction house in FF9.
I am praying so hard for my boy Kuja to show up in some form.... though so far I'm not getting a Kuja vibe from the boss person. He'd never limit himself to just "hmmm most intriguing", he'd feel compelled to monologue about the theatrical perfection of what's going down. If I were to pin it on someone from IX it's the most like Garland.
Also I wonder, cause we did technically have monster fights in IX, in the form of the Knight's House in Treno... There wasn't terribly much lore to that place tho, iirc.
That's why I'm putting my bet on a Kuja-type figure. He wasn't as theatrical, but someone in a similar role as King would be able to restrain himself for a round of fights or two since y'know. We're still minor leaguers. To him, our fourth round was just a pleasant surprise. That Elezen we ran into gave off *major* vibes after all.
Yea
@@Aluranae That Elezen will be our lore refresher in S9 if people forget what's happening in the story, I think
The anime tournament arc is real.

Soken has written some pretty amazing rock songs over the years, but I gotta say, this one might be the best yet. Could be stacked up there with any of the late 70s/early 80s hard rock bangers. Vocals especially giving echoes of Ann Wilson/Patty Smyth

@@truthless4720 It was a voluntary mistake :D
Yeah I mean they need it to ramp up eventually as good as a tournament arc can be the arc needs stakes.
She even leaves basically saying... I have to beat you I need your soul to survive.
Like finding out the arcadion has this dark secret and the populous can't really take losing another pillar of its society right after jalool and sphenes death
She transformed and I felt funny inside
My first reaction was "Mommy?"

I felt the same the first time I saw MH Kirin's girl armor

@@astrum_remi Good tastes!
If the next two tiers maintain this level of quality this raid series is going to be my favorite instanced content in the game.
Say what you will about the writing of Dawntrail, but the devs knocked it out of the park with the new dungeons, trials, and raids
The new playable content so far has been peak, they're cooking with the gameplay
Dawntrail shaping up to be like Stormblood where the writing is polarizing but the actual gameplay content is off the charts, exciting if they keep it up.
Hearing this song gave me a lot of the same feelings that hearing Oblivion for the first time, I love this song so much it;s easily one of my favorite raid themes in the game
Everyone else on my first run: "God damn this song is hype af!!"
Me, listening to the lyrics and what she's saying as I'm fighting: "Damn...she's in genuine pain...what happened to you?"
I like how you don't really get to know until AFTER the fight, so during the fight you're just wondering "something's wrong here"
They've done that a few times before. It's a damned art form to make a complete bop WITH meaning.
She gets the proton cannon and goes
YO, WANNA LEARN HOW TO DO A FKIN INFINITE?!
The lyrics to this song are incredibly sad
He simply cannot miss. I can't get over how good the soundtrack for this whole expansion is aaaaaaa
wicked thunder was insane
I just love how both sisters have same theme foundation
This is a certified bop.
you know a songs a hit when the most replayed is the entire video
after suffering 3 full days in pf for the clear i gotta say: IT'S STILL A BANGER YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Official Lyrics
(I edited a bit to fit this video)
------------------------------------------------
Tonight our city bleeds red, blue, and green
As I walk in the dark unseen
Yet like the grey the sky is draped in
The colors in my heart have faded
Gone
They're gone
They're gone
All gone
A girl looks to the stars and dares to dream
On the world she'd make her mark, it seemed
This phantom in my mirror starin' back
I realize that girl is
Gone
She's gone
She's gone
I'm gone
Climbed every mountain, made it to the top
I had it all, or so I thought
Traded tomorrow for a lie
And found the price too high
The clock is ticking counting down to naught
I'm outta time but it won't stop
I'll bet my life before it's lost
That final line I'll cross
There ain't no going back
No going back
No going back
No
What light's left here inside
I'll suffocate
If that's what it takes, oh
And those who look to cast me aside
or turn their backs and leave me to die
You can try, can try, come try,
But I will survive
No going back
No going back
Won't ever
(no) Never again, no
Ain't no going back
No going back
No coming back from the edge
Look in my eyes, yeah I know you understand
(somebody help, my misery's taking me)
I've made up my mind, now there ain't no going back
(somebody help, I'm losing what's left of me)
I've made up my mind, now my heart's demanding
I'm ready to fight til there's one left standing
Tonight, lightning'll strike, thunder will fall
(and) You're gonna give it all
To me
To me
To me
To me, I gotta believe
You'll set
Me free
Tonight my circle finally comes complete
One last step from the dark, I breathe
The music's swellin', crowd is chantin'
And for this moment fear's an after-
thought
It's gone
It's gone
All gone
I look out to the crowd and there I see
A thousand little girls--all me
I've turned the tables, yeah I'm fightin' back
I'll bring the lightnin', now it's
On
It's on
It's on
You're gone
Climbed every mountain, made it to the top
I had it all, or so I thought
Traded tomorrow for a lie
And found the price too high
The clock is ticking counting down to naught
I'm outta time but it won't stop
I'll bet my life before it's lost
That final line I'll cross
There ain't no going back
No going back
No going back
No
What light's left here inside
I'll suffocate
If that's what it takes, oh
And those who look to cast me aside
or turn their backs and leave me to die
You can try, can try, come try,
But I will survive
No going back
No going back
Won't ever
(no) Never again, no
Ain't no going back
No going back
No coming back from the edge
Look in my eyes, yeah I know you understand
(somebody help, my misery's taking me)
I've made up my mind, now there ain't no going back
(somebody help, I'm losing what's left of me)
I've made up my mind, now my heart's demanding
I'm ready to fight til there's one left standing
Tonight, lightning'll strike, thunder will fall
(and) You're gonna give it all
To me
To me
To me
To me, I gotta believe
You'll set
Me free
Inb4 Husky uploads a cover because that man works FAST
Edit: hell yeah his cover was uploaded today 🤘
Definitely eagerly awaiting that!!
Shame his rearrangement are mediocre
I'm holding out for the Lacey Johnson cover. This is so ridiculously in her wheelhouse.
@@at0micl0bster you take thta back
@@lavenderrose3755 he's almost certainly gotten better since I stopped listening, but pretty much everything I've heard from him has been amateur (furries also annoy me)
You hear this song and you CAN’T not feel like fighting.
Listening to it while I'm sitting in queue and itching to get in so I can hit things! :D
TWEWY vibes fr. This would be a song that plays in the later days of that game fr
Made up my mind now my heart's demanding
Ready to fight 'til there's one left standing
Tonight, lightning will strike, thunder will follow
You're gonna Give It All!
PEAK PEAK PEAK
She is definitely Ramuh enjoyer
Bold of Square-Enix to drop a Marvel vs. Capcom character as a raid boss just days before EVO 2024.
theyre never beating the fgc retirement home allegations
Peak shonen anime
