    Promises I Can't Keep | Lyrics
    What's the difference between a man and a monster
    Is it somewhere between “I can" and “I want to"
    Is it somewhere between the promises I made
    And the fact I couldn’t see something getting in the way
    I used to think that I know what I want
    Never saw it coming unglued
    I used to think that I know what I want
    Now it’s time to see if it’s true
    I had so much certainty
    Till that moment I lost control
    And I’ve tried but it never was up to me
    I’ve got no worse enemy
    Than the fear of what’s still unknown
    And the time’s come to realize there will be
    Promises I can’t keep
    What's the difference between a loss and a forfeit
    I tried to make it better but I made it more sick
    I tried to make it right / but now awake at night
    I know reality was getting in the way
    I used to think that I knew who I was
    Never saw it coming unglued
    I used to think that I knew who I was
    Now it’s time to see if it’s true

    This will be the first comment that I've ever left on UA-cam. I'm a 48 year old school teacher, first responder, husband, and dad. I'm probably not Linkin Park or Mike's perceived audience. However, I have been a Linkin Park fan since the beginning. For almost a year after Chester's death, I couldn't listen to Linkin Park when they'd pop up on Pandora. I've been listening to Mike for the last hour or so while getting ready for a Parent Night at my high school. Mike, I don't know if this will ever get to you-- and I don't mean this to sound patronizing--but I'm proud of you. I know you've been through a lot, and you felt your whole world get upended around you. You came through this, and you found your voice. It is strong, and has a message that needs to be told. Consider me a "Mike Sinoda" fan from today on.

      John Warren I fully agree & appreciate you taking the time to tell him I haven’t really been able to listen either... I would cry & get that heart wrenching feeling in my chest but I just heard this song for the 1st time tonight, myself, I am so proud of Mike Shinoda too!!! He really does have a strong voice & I know Chester Bennington is as proud as we are!!! ♥️♥️

      hello dad, if my dad still alive he would be at your age, I'm 26. I had been a fan of Mike Shinoda since the song 'Believe me' released and I always appreciate his work even though I don't have enough power to support him except for keep getting back and listen to his songs. I got a lot of inspiration to getting myself back up and continue to work on my dream, and I'm sure many people will get something from his songs. Welcome to the family.

    I hope people remember that although Chester, the voice of Linkin Park is gone, Mike, Brad, Joe, Rob and Dave are still here. The brains, hands, eyes and heart of the band is still here and speaking as a fan of this Band for a long time I feel that people owe them all the same love and respect as Chester ever received. They were more than just his brothers, they are also the creators of the band's philosophy that is shared by everyone who loved even one of their songs.

    This is a far cry from the Mike Shinoda that labels wanted to drop back when they were going into the studio to record Hybrid Theory. Chester stood up for him, and odd 20 years later everybody's looking at Mike for support and the hope and dream to keep Linkin Park alive after Chester's passing. This shows not only the brotherhood these two friends had but also the fortitude and perseverance that made them one, if not the, biggest band on the planet come 2020.

      Chester didn't stand up for him though.... It's a nice heartwarming story!!! But it's just a lie.... Hybrid Theory was basically done being recorded. But Shinoda thought they needed a singer/screamer to really create the sound he had in his head. So their manager from the label started looking around. He knew chester and his previous band. He told Chester to come try out this new band Linkin Park. Well he showed up and Shinoda was shown his vocal range and what he could do with his voice. So Shinoda told him what parts to sing and what parts to scream on the album. They recorded his voice. Mixed and mastered it and Hybrid theory was a wrap!!! Mike Shinoda IS Linkin Park!!! He wrote damn near everything!!! I'm talking lyrics AND music.... Yes they would not be nearly what they are if Chester never showed up. But Mike Shinoda is GENUINELY one of the greatest musicians/artists TO EVER WALK THIS EARTH!!! The dude is on another level musically. It's not just talent, he is god tier level at this shit!!!

      In most cases the singer shows at least 4 hand signs and these are:
      666
      devil horns
      one eye
      tongue showing aka mocking.
      The talent may be there, but the hand signs must be there. Thats how a soul becomes a “rich and famous” singer or actor.

    "Promises I Can't Keep"
    What's the difference between a man and a monster
    Is it somewhere between I can and I want to
    Is it somewhere between the promises I made
    And the fact I couldn't see something getting in the way
    I used to think that I know what I want
    Never saw it coming unglued
    I used to think that I know what I want
    Now it's time to see if it's true
    I had so much certainty
    Til that moment I lost control
    And I've tried but it never was up to me
    I've got no worse enemy
    Than the fear of what's still unknown
    And the time's come to realize there will be
    Promises I can't keep
    What's the difference between a loss and a forfeit
    I tried to make it better, but I made it more sick
    I tried to make it right, now awake at night
    I know reality was getting in the way
    I used to think that I knew who I was
    Never saw it coming unglued
    I used to think that I knew who I was
    Now it's time to see if it's true
    I had so much certainty
    Til that moment I lost control
    And I've tried but it never was up to me
    I've got no worse enemy
    Than the fear of what's still unknown
    And the time's come to realize there will be
    Promises I can't keep
    I had so much certainty
    Til that moment I lost control
    And I've tried but it never was up to me
    I've got no worse enemy
    Than the fear of what's still unknown
    And the time's come to realize there will be

    We know your feelings very well, Mike. We also know how much you will remember Chester a lot. It’s sure you’ll feel so sad because of Chester’s passing over this world. We appreciate that you did as your best with your best friend, Chester. We’ll also miss the moments that you and Chester performed, created musics. Appreciate you Mike.
