CREED's first album borders on being a masterpiece! The angst, the pain, the release... it's all so heartfelt and powerful.

[@loriwilson6386]

I love Creed!!!! One Last Breath, Higher, Weathered, What If, My Sacrifice!!! Great songs!!!! Great voice!!!!!

[@caretaker158]

I literally wore out my Creed "My Own Prison" CD.... love Creed, always have, always will.

[@mattspring6482]

Creeds first album was absolutely awsome. A preachers rebellious son, who runs away from home becoming homeless, writing poetry that would later become Creed's first album.

[@Modern-Renaissance-Man]

Matt Spring that's crazy! I'm glad you told me that. It adds so much more depth to the songs

[@calipop_9253]

Matt Spring when I first heard Creed the first time I said this guy grew up in church. He has to be a preacher’s kid. I know because my grandpa was a Pentecostal minister. Lol

[@mattspring6482]

@@calipop_9253 yeah, their first album was basically everything that the lead singer, Scott Stapp struggled with. Regardless, if you like this kind of music or not, sitting down and listening to all of the songs on their first album will give you chills.

[@barbarachieppo8290]

Their album Human Clay is awesome as well in my opinion☺

[@patrickowens4294]

This was by far my favorite Creed album. It was very raw and emotional. They did put out a lot of good stuff later, but nothing quite so real as this album.

[@latimoresky9421]

I hear ya, but I feel this song is about searching or finding faith. He created his prison based on his sins and is guilt stricken and he's looking for God to forgive him. Great song and inspiring either way.

[@forsaken9184]

Yep definitely Scott Stapp is a backslider he grew up in church and when he got older he drifted and that always tormented him his own words not mine there’s an interview where he talked about it and currently he rededicated his life to Christ

[@jimwilson5801]

Thank you brother. I have been caught in my own prison for a long time. Your words help heal. God bless you

[@charlesmiller6826]

Praying for you

[@freya4764]

Prayers Jim

[@mylanereaction629]

I LUV, LOVE THIS SONG SO, SO, SO, SO MUCH. THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE BANDS, AND SONG. ALL OF HIS SONGS HAD A RELIGIOUS MESSAGE. ONE, SACRIFICE, TORN, HIGHER, & MY OWN PRISON ARE A FEW OF MY FAVORITES. YOUR MESSAGE AT THE END WAS PRETTY ACCURATE. GREAT JOB.

[@jeremydean6210]

He is standing in front of God on Judgment day. He has run out of time to accept Christ. Demons cluttering around, his skin begins to burn. And he is hoping for Grace from the prison he created for himself. Very powerful. Especially the last emotional chorus, I created, I created my own prison. Just my thoughts on this. Great channel 👏

[@Abaddon231]

This album was on permanent repeat for me back in 97 .. I loved every song , musically and lyrically.

[@elizabethluker8356]

I found you awhile back and loved ya from the start.. BUT the last 2 mins of this reaction made it clear to me why " I stumbled " across your channel from the start. It was meant for me to hear those last 2 minutes! Thank you, my brother in Christ. I needed to hear that. God bless you and your family. Sending you love & blessings.

[@markcainyourfriendinthecar3387]

Great reaction. Big fan of Creed. Met them a few times when i was in high school. Found a trick at one of the places in Atlanta where they'd do concerts. Me and my friends would go there about 2 hours before the show and volunteer to be ushers. We'd show people where to sit and get to listen to awesome bands. Hang out back stage and meet the groups. Had some great memories. This is an awesome song. Glad you found it. Little surprised you haven't heard of them. They're from your neck of the woods.

[@xtop23]

creed was dope. solid song

[@stevenanderson2555]

I agree Creeds first Album was a Masterpiece

[@kimkovaly2393]

I love this band. They were one of my son's favorites. Another great 90s band.

[@davidchristmas6952]

Excellent choice of words brother, I couldn't have said it any better myself! Thank you for doing this reaction to this song! Great job bro!

[@monsterfiend9364]

I just want to say thank you for bringing that topic out for people to hear. Ive wanted to spread that exact message for so long but couldn't find the words. Great video man

[@oldscool65]

Creed is an awesome band

[@WizardPandora]

Oh wow, I haven't heard this since I was a teenager..... The memories it brings back

[@dennyson3500]

Several months ago, I was at the bottom of my despair, this song helped bring me back and rise up to charge again!!! Peace and love, brother.

[@Ritaholden1]

Seen them in concert when they first became popular. LOVE this band!

[@lemhanback9595]

I think that was the reason this song became a big hit it touched folks on a spiritual level.

[@adamfanalways]

I love Creed, Scott Stapp wrote this song after a dream he had, he woke up in a sweat, got up and went to his table and felt the need to write it down, then he when back to bed! Then the next day woke up looked at what he wrote, called Mark the next day to tell him he thought he had a song for them! Hope you do some more reaction to Creed songs, I love Say I, Unforgiven, What If and What This Life Is For, the last song was a friend who committed suicide that Scott and Mark both knew! There's way more, a lot of people in the comments have listed ones I would suggest to! Wrong Way is also great! I just saw Scott Stapp 3 days in a row in August 2018 and meet him all 3 time's! He's in recovery, healthy and happy! He and his wife Jacklyn had a new son November of last year, he has his life back! Doing his Creed and solo music and he was fantastic! He couldn't have been more gracious or down to earth to his fan's! Maybe you could do a couple of his solo music, I'd recommend Dying To Live, Slow Suicide or Crash!

[@ethangospodareck4716]

Creed was big around the same time as nsync and backstreet boys etc. They later became Alter Bridge minus Scott Stapp (lead singer). He got into substance abuse amongst other thing. Also Mark Trimonte (guitar player), is recognized as one of the best guitar players of our day along with Alter Bridge's lead singer Myles Kennedy. They would be a great one to look into. Maybe..White Knuckles or Watch Over You by Alter Bridge?

[@ursulabklyn_mia6148]

That song was a hit from day one. I loved it deeply.

[@johnramirez5996]

It's like your stuck in your own mind. I went through that when my only sibling and younger brother passed from cancer. My whole life it was me and him. Us against the world. Now just me. Almost 3 yrs I cried. everyday. Now I see my brother in my youngest son. From the sleeping to bloody noses. He's just like him. My brother was supposed to name my youngest, but passed before we knew what we were having. So we named him after my brother. I just put him on bus to preschool.

[@tnwmkr12]

Creed never fails!!!!! EVER!!!!!!!

[@aziniowa]

I'm extremely late commenting on this I'm still catching up on your reaction videos.. This is one of my favorite Creed songs.. I love your reactions.. It's nice to see someone with an open mind when it comes to music..

[@marshaflores2923]

Arms wide open- CREED

[@y2daisy]

You have a great perception of the lyrics in music. Love your video's.

[@caretaker158]

Ty, you nailed it! As a victim of depression/panic/anxiety, it is a vicious cycle where the mind feeds on the negative to the point where the positive can no longer be seen. It's like digging yourself out of a deep, dark hole with a spoon. It's a long, hard road back, and it takes a lot of effort and support just to "break even", but it can be done. The brain, with help, can be retrained but it is so difficult some days. Worth the effort though when the day comes that you realize "hey, I'm having more good days than bad"... that's a great feeling, but it's so easy to slide back down and each time it gets harder to begin the climb again. But climb we must, or be lost forever. That's no way to live.

[@sheilacdannym]

Oh my, God Bless You! I have always felt I related to this song on so many levels and for you to interpret your amazing option on it makes all the "more". Thank You, Thank You! 💯💖👍😊🙏🙌 Sub'd and bell'd!

[@andrealovelace7251]

Scott is the lead singer of Creed and he has dealt maybe still dealing with alcoholism.. sadly he made and hurt the band bad they were really on their way to greatness.. but scott makes his own prison.. this was always one of my favorites of theirs

[@morninggloryvine9280]

Temple of the Dog - Hunger Strike

[@davidjenkins4751]

Amen Brother! I deal with deep depression daily. You said it perfect. I'm stuck in my own prison.

[@angelmeyers1455]

From the album "Human Clay" which imho is top notch and definitely it's in my personal collection.

[@SteveMcCoy.]

It's from the album before Human Clay entitled My Own Prison.

[@ItzMidwest]

This song got me through some much hard times in my life great song an band

[@Mistilou]

Creed is and has been completely unique to them and I believe it is because they were a Christian Rock Band... they're amazing 😍

[@OffRoad-jh1do]

You had me at Creed...

[@beaunelson6386]

Please do creed-one-last-breath the live version from a while back it has about 1.3 million views. His voice was absolutely incredible back then

[@mightyzorro]

nice to see a guy doing a song reaction who doesnt stop the flow every five seconds to talk... my personal fave by creed is 'stand here with me'

[@profound369]

I found it hard to believe the way the scales tipped on this video. From listening to the creed song, to a complete motivational speech with motivational music. I still am in disbelief. Thats not to say I didnt like the video. It is actually to say WOOOW this is great. Unbelievably good message. I subscribe to you now and like this

[@johndeeregreen4592]

This is a religious song, actually, about creating your own prison based on sin.

[@sussychachi]

John Green music is what you make it. How the song makes you feel is what it is 😆

[@johndeeregreen4592]

@@sussychachi, yes, that is true... however, when a song has a direct meaning, there is no denying it. Still, it can be applied in other ways, too.

[@johndeeregreen4592]

@Whosur Caddy, in Christianity based on Catholicism, there is no greater sin than forsaking God. Like Stapp, I was raised Lutheran, so I know this to be fact.

[@ceeemmdee2599]

One of my favorite songs

[@morninggloryvine9280]

Soul Asylum - Runaway Train

[@Jd-im4my]

This song got me through alot of bad times.

[@noradennis7409]

There are two songs I would recommend. Breaking Benjamin- Give me a sign and Seckond Chaynce- no room to breathe.

[@chrisPAT03]

Man, since you hadn't heard of Creed before this, you've gotta check out their other jams like Weathered, In America, etc. The albums My Own Prison and Weathered are awesome.

[@x_dawgs_x1053]

You should check out “one hell of a amen” by Brantley Gilbert. It’s a powerful song a lot of people can relate too.

[@Shadowstalkerist937]

Love what you do man you listen to everything and for you to go back to Creed I love that thank you for the reaction of this song! ... And I love this song lol

[@abp8504]

Definitely listen to "Higher", about going to Heaven. And "Arms Wide Open", written to a newborn.

[@steveburtonomaha]

It’s a very spiritual song

[@flouisbailey]

Another song from my darkest days but I survived by the grace of Jesus, bless you all

[@midwestfisherman]

Haven’t heard this one in years!

[@donnavega26]

a beautiful message be blessed

[@GS-kx8wc]

People interpret each song differently. For me, it's about living a life of sin and going to hell after death. I'll paste the lyrics below. Of course, it's all in how music speaks to each individual. The video actually cuts out a verse as you'll see below. A court is in session, a verdict is in No appeal on the docket today Just my own sin The walls are cold and pale The cage made of steel Screams fill the room Alone I drop and kneel Silence now the sound My breath the only motion around Demons cluttering around My face showing no emotion Shackled by my sentence Expecting no return Here there is no penance My skin begins to burn So I held my head up high Hiding hate that burns inside Which only fuels their selfish pride (And I said oh) All held captive Out from the sun A sun that shines on only some We the meek are all in one I hear a thunder in the distance See a vision of a cross I feel the pain that was given On that sad day of loss A lion roars in the darkness Only he holds the key A light to free me from my burden And grant me life eternally Should have been dead On a Sunday morning Banging my head No time for mourning Ain't got no time Should have been dead On a Sunday morning Banging my head No time for mourning Ain't got no time So I held my head up high Hiding hate that burns inside Which only fuels their selfish pride (And I said oh) All held captive Out from the sun A sun that shines on only some We the meek are all in one I cry out to God Seeking only his decision Gabriel stands and confirms I've created my own prison I cry out to God Seeking only his decision Gabriel stands and confirms I've created my own prison So I held my head up high Hiding hate that burns inside Which only fuels their selfish pride (And I said oh) All held captive Out from the sun A sun that shines on only some We the meek are all in one So I held my head up high Hiding hate that burns inside Which only fuels their selfish pride (And I said oh) We're held captive (I created) Out from the sun (I created) A sun that shines on only some (I created) We the meek are all in one (I created my own prison) Should've been dead on a Sunday morning Banging my head No time for mourning Ain't got no time

I'm bipolar with sever depression and when I get depressed my "hamster wheel" starts up and that's all I can think about is what I've done in my past and it's really hard to get myself back from the pitch black hole that I've dug for myself. I hope you have a wonderful and blessed day my friend!!! 😊😊😊😊 🐧🐧🐧

[@angelaemmens9235]

Happy person living in state of depression take meds for the state now the depression is still there just not in the front of my mind. I am happy all the time, amazement and wonder at Gods creations, find joy in life just hearing seeing, watching butterfly birds singing just life all around. Use to be to much at times sensory overload when seeing the others in hurt just made me hurt so much. Felt to much Now I can breathe.

Steve McCoy yep first time

[@SteveMcCoy.]

I like the writing in their songs. Unique to them

Yes i agree higher or arms wide open.

I've always been partial to "Torn". More people should react to Creed.

[@williamjackson982]

You are so very very right when it comes to depression I have suffered from depression my whole life.Just like you said if you get something in your mind and you cannot get red of it which is something that I do. It can cause me to lose sleep.I do have to take medication but I also have stress and anxiety.I had a bother who committed suede but he was never denote with depression my mom also was treated with depression when I was a kid. I never found out about to she had passed away with cancer. One of my other brothers had told me about it.He has also passed away with cancer just recently. I have also lost another bother to cancer. You are pretty much right on when it comes to depression. I hate it so badly when I get to thinking about something and I cannot for the life of me get it off my mind.There are times when I am not depressed I still cannot get things out of my head.

[@212x3]

Creed along with Collective Soul were possibly the only two christian rock bands to make it big and have monster albums. Both great bands with unique sounds.

[@tooth9047]

they aren't christian bands they simply used spiritual themes as metaphors, especially scott stapp of creed neither of them were ever signed to christian labels, nor did they ever play at christian venues

[@realisticthought1781]

Red, P.o.d, thousand foot krutch, skillet. Many more you didn’t mention

[@chriskasowski4743]

The term "Christian band" historically refers to the band being signed to a known "Christian label". This did not necessarily always mean that the band members or lyrical content were necessarily Christian. In fact, many no-name bands in the 90's & early 2000's would claim to be "Christian" because it was a lot easier to get signed to labels like Tooth & Nail...particularly if the style of music entailed incoherent streaming and heavy riffs. The bottom line is that there were and still are Christian artists that choose not to throw it in your face or market their music only to folks who sit in the pews (see Chevelle, Blindside, Red, and NF for example).

[@starful9493]

Creed now has a new band new name .

[@TheAskthelonely49]

Creed...haven't heard them in a long time. This song rings true for alot of people. I've mentioned before a band by the name of Brand New and their song "Jesus Christ" which I would love to hear your reaction to sometime. Just a heads up towards the end there's more after the pause.

[@ALSILVERU2]

that captain america music during speaking sunk this session 🤫

Thank you for your words. I quit taking anti-depressants years ago, because I didn't like the way they made me feel. I may cry at the drop of a hat now, but I prefer that to feeling nothing.

Its about being at judgement when your about to die it a gospel rock song. It's deep

[@melissabennett3691]

Creed, Arms wide open

[@jayhelm9632]

Thanks, bro- deep explanation, I liked it.

[@sussychachi]

Depression and feeling sad is simple. When you have depression it’s passive which means the feeling sad is a constant thing. It’s always lurking in your mind and mood. You can distract yourself for a little but or maybe even a whole day or so but it comes back and creeps up on you whenever in the night time or in the shower etc. it’s always in the background and it also gets in the way of your daily life. Lack of ambition lack of energy, suicidal thoughts. You constantly think bad about yourself and your overthinking of simple stuff that people usually might stress over but quickly overcome it. It stops you from going out from living from pursuing your career. rather then having a bad day because of a reasonable reason and quickly overcoming it and functioning life at ease for the majority of it. Too different things.

Watch alot of your video's lately! I love Creed music! Could you please do a review to Scott Stapp(former lead singer of Creed) its called Purpose For Pain! He's got 5 years of sobriety and he's still writing lyrics that all powerful and meaningful songs! I also saw your review of Creed My Sacrifice! I really believe you'd love it, I'll be looking for it or another solo song called Slow Suicide! 🤟🙏
