LYRICS
There was a kid who came home red from panic and fear.
Some kids at the school had beaten him way past tears.
His mom cried “Jesus Christ” as she cleaned the blood pouring out of his ears…
but it was obvious that, quiet as a rat, god was nowhere near.
There was a girl at the bar.
She overdosed in a photo booth.
Nobody found her body until last call.
The pictures all showed her terrified and a loner
while everyone cried what a great friend she was.
And everyone treats commandments like more like a bucket list so
Iʼve been been asking why I was born against?
Time doesnʼt respect what doesnʼt respect it
and kind isnʼt a word I would use for man.
If everyoneʼs made in “his” image and even “he” couldnʼt perfect it,
then what the hell makes anyone think we can?
He had the faith of a dog, the debt of a sinner
and a chain tied from his neck to around a tree.
He taped a hospital bill to the dashboard…kissed the ring on his finger
and drove himself to eternity.
Iʼve been trying to hide I was born against.
I wonder if Iʼll die…born against.

Danny leads "are we cool yet"

[@tjcaplinger6700]

Danny if you’re reading this I hope you know you are one of very few musicians who I don’t just listen to their music. I can feel that shit in my bones. And I’ve yet to be disappointed. Thank you.

Me too

[@justinshay9346]

Anybody else been counting the minutes till this dropped just to get absolutely blindsided ???

Been smooching to this for a few days. Was unlisted for several days and been private since uploaded two months ago, but went official today😆😎

I counted a drop for every hour

I couldn’t imagine it any other way tho 🤘🏻

[@MisterTalkingMachine]

I heard this on the radio, recorded a bit of it and asked my friend who likes this style of music if he knew it, now I'm here.

[@eugenecaudill5361]

Where did you hear this on the radio? I need to move.

[@coxbrawls5918]

Welcome

Seriously where on the radio?

[@kadensmith6196]

I would like to move where you at

[@mattresbert]

Nice to meet you x

[@Very_Okay]

i can’t overstate how grateful i am that when this first dropped my youtube premium account hadn’t renewed properly, which in turn made me get this video as an ad; and i’m so glad that i didn’t skip it either. since that time Danny has absolutely become my favorite artist. it’s been a long time since music has made me feel so seen. gracias, mi amigo.

[@LastOldCaptain]

I am not sure why most of the songs on his album currently have comments turned off because by all that any of you hold holy this is one of the most gifted musicians/storytellers I've ever had the privilege to hear. If you don't feel the raw emotion in every line of every song I worry you might not pass the Turing test my friend...

[@Not_that_Brian_Jones]

I would literally kill* to see him with Meg Myers. * not literally. Literally as in figuratively.

[@benjiL04]

This is by far my favorite song of all time. Not kidding, I genuinely think it's authentic genius

PLEASE put your album art on a T-shirt or a hoodie. let me give you my money damnit!

Major Tom Waits vibes I'm crying this amazing Danny 😭💖

[@heathkish6901]

Definitely giving me "Rain Dogs" vibes, which is never a bad thing!

[@xeizael2034]

Omg thats the first I thought too! 😭😂

[@dirtyjerz732]

Really? It's really good, but I never throw Tom Waits comparisons around lightly. Вокру шум. Пусть так. Ни кипешуй. Всё ништяk

[@jgquinton]

Ben Caplan vibes for me, and thank the lord for it. We need more of this!

[@heathkish6901]

@@jgquinton Now that you mention it, it does remind of something that'd be on Old Stock. But he's a modern-day Tom Waits, so that makes sense. Haha

[@pamelaalexandra13]

This is everything I needed/wanted from an amigo song 10/10

[@anthonycampos2634]

It was the night of one of your concerts I asked my wife out. You signed a flag I bought and took pictures with us. My wife and I are separated now and I'm trying hard to get her to come home. But your music gets me through the nights and days I can't stand waking up.

[@shaggyzoinks980]

Keep fighting but hey there’s no shame in giving up. Realizing that what she gave you, all of the little moment and memories are there for a reason. Even if it’s gone you still have those. You’ve learned from her just as she has you. I wish you all the best in your journey. Healing is the hardest part, but in the end I promise you’ll realize how many more small memories will form and how it all happened for a reason in its own messed up way. Lessons come with pain but I feel knowledge is always worth the price. You’ve made it this far. And amigos new album dropped so I hope his brilliant lyricism and enchanting music will always give you the same joy and love you felt before. But this time it’s all for you.

[@anthonycampos2634]

@@shaggyzoinks980 Thanks man. That was really comforting to read. I've accepted it and have since started working on being me again. I've been feeling surprisingly well. And omg I haven't stopped listening to his new album since it dropped. I'm absolutely in love with it. A couple songs really hit home but in the greatest of ways.

[@adamislost]

So he’s really just incapable of writing anything less than greatness, huh? Damn I love ATD. Every song is amazing

[@FREAKOFNATURE-mb8oo]

This hits hard when ur the angsty gay with religious trauma

Badass production + amazing song = on repeat.

[@BiscuitBoi936]

Saw Amigo live in London in June 2023 and it was one of those live sessions you wish they'd invent time travel and memory deletion for, just so you could go back and experience it for the first time all over again

[@fishexterminator7169]

This man has never made a bad song so far. I can't wait for a new album.

[@foolycoolyface]

So fucking good. I have had on repeat for about 30 minutes.

[@demonika13601]

You are the most amazing artist I have ever encou reres. Your music gives me chills, makes me smile, calms me, and makes me feel in a part of my soul I thought long since unreachable. Thank you for the blessing of your music

[@ThisGuitarIsAWeapon]

I love what you do, so much. Keep it up brother. This is like psychotic modest mouse mixed with your signature sound.

Simply amazing!!!

[@mrack42]

Just listened to this song for the first time tonight... going through the album. I'd say this is already probably my favorite track, if it weren't for the warm fuzzies the following songs are bringing. Danny, this is all gold, LOVE IT! At 'Another Man's Grave', and I'm definitely going to be playing this album over and over for the coming weeks. Can't wait to see you again; you're killing it! EDIT: SHADOW! Wow... yeah... Born Against is Legendary. Congratulations, it's a magnum opus.

[@bladeblack985]

Born very excited

[@dustyknuckles295]

I dont understand how your lyrics always mimic my inner voice. Your music is golden my friend.

[@browneyedsoprano]

Very reminiscent of Tom Waits. I hear a similar jauntiness in the horns and percussion as great hits like "Hell broke Luce", but with your amazing lyricism and voice overtop. Great song dude.

[@DoveEnigma13]

I don’t how you do it Danny. Every song you wrote comes directly from my own soul

[@darksnivy5775]

Just wanted to say you are one of the biggest inspirations for a character that I made years ago, he is so dear to me and your music means a lot to me. Your work is fantastic and I'm so excited to hear more!

[@darksnivy5775]

I would love to be so unapologetically creative. That clip at the end just speaks volumes to me, I want to express myself and my ideas in a way as powerful as this. Something about it strikes a chord with me, and I love it so damn much.

[@NyxInfernal]

Oh fuck, today is a good day! I didn't even see this til today!

[@mikehoncho1999]

Thank you again, Amigo

Today, a customer came in wearing a shirt with an interesting design. I asked her about it, she said, “it’s a really cool band.” I said I’d check them out. Very glad I was on the register today

Danny I have been listening to you for years and every year you just getting better. Your lyrics are outstanding

[@L3AFYB3AV3R]

Amigo is the fucking truth

[@Kodurr]

I have usually preferred Amigo's music without video. With how he writes I find it really fun to fill in the gaps with my imagination. This was great. I feel like the video added lots of fun interpretive stuff, and will have me watching it multiple times.

[@codypool6822]

You'd be the one to tell me.... How do i feel inspired and inferior all at the same time? Do I try harder? Or just listen?

[@DilligentCrow23]

I freaking love him. Every song is hitting so hard. I feel personally attacked

[@iconoclastika]

I think KZbin is lost. I got a Christian dating app ad before this song.

Who Said Tom Waits isn't influential? Not I. Is that a Versace neck tie? Hot.

The people who downvote this video admire the cardashians and pop music. So you can ignore the down votes. They don't count.
