Memphis May Fire - Generation: Hate

iTUNES: smarturl.it/mmf...
MERCH: riserecords.mer...
You sit at home feeling so strong from behind that screen, but honestly do you think those words you're typing are gonna change anything? Could it be this is just an escape from all your insecurities? Could it be you're deepest secret is you wish that you were me? Tell me what is it with this love to hate? I think I'm starting to lose all my faith. This isn't how it's supposed to be! You see everything in black & white. Who are are you to tell me what's wrong or right? What could I possibly learn from someone like you? You don't know the first thing about my life! Say what you will. You know it all or at least you think you do. Waste all your days complaining. You think we care but everyone knows that you don't have a clue, so say what you will but you wouldn't last a day in my shoes! Waste all your days complaining. You think we care but this is a war you will always lose. So go & disregard the blood, sweat & tears we shed for you, but who will have the upper hand when this is over & I've done everything you wished you could do. Stop wasting my time, so full of things to say when you feel safe. Maybe I'll listen to you whine the day you wanna say it to my face. Bring it on! So many mouths that love to run, but I just laugh because I've been confronted by none. Say what you will. You know it all or at least you think you do. Waste all your days complaining. You think we care but everyone knows that you don't have a clue, so say what you will but you wouldn't last a day in my shoes! Waste all your days complaining. You think we care but this is a war you will always lose. Say what you will. You know it all or at least you think you do. Waste all your days complaining. You think we care but everyone knows that you don't have a clue, so say what you will but you wouldn't last a day in my shoes! Waste all your days complaining. You think we care but this is a war you will always lose! I'm calling out my generation. This is an alarm! Can you hear it now? It seems like "caring" is just a phase we're over now. I'm calling out my generation. You should be ashamed cause you're the ones to blame. This isn't how it's supposed to be.

[@dwightschrute4989]

These lyrics are the voice of my generation. Like i cant sum it up better. Amazing song.

[@Evolutionz2k12]

Yeah so true! KZbin is full of insults :(

[@dwightschrute4989]

I don't even understand what the haters are trying to do when they post comments. Its more degrading for them than the person they're targeting.

[@coltoncking]

Loner Amalt fuck you

[@groovyme6084]

Society isn't as bad as it seems. Countless of times due to my airhead personality, i forget alot and often depend on random people. For example: Asking a stranger for ticket or change since i forgot my wallet for the bus. There are many good people out there, Colton must be what's left. LOL

[@VincentGilmore]

***** Talk about generation hate

[@ligewilliams3879]

This has to be one of the truest songs I've ever heard in my life.

[@alextownley9388]

Unfortunately :/

[@crossvanitygaming7844]

This song should be called "KZbin"

[@DrPoonLover]

should be called "the internet"

[@sandiadiartamusic]

Hahahahaha

[@mauvnoelful]

So basically Memphis may fire just called the haters out.total respect.

[@charsiniganhoodish]

+SenselessBonkai Lol when the haters come to trash on MMF but then he trashes them first with this song. There is no argument to this song lol

[@stonedumaruto9570]

got that right these guys revived my fighting spirit!

[@abombgodisreal3435]

to me theyre talking about the generation of libtards that are embaressing and theyre spot on

[@ryansyncope]

@@abombgodisreal3435 You totally sound like one of those loving Christians who totally makes people want to be just like them.

[@corrales8602]

Gets a hate text. Makes a song about it. still....loved it

[@hansolzy]

I love how this band sings about things that matter and are happening right now + with good guitar riffs and beats, it's just simply amazing..

[@JaredWestbrook777]

"So many mouths that love to run, but I just laugh because I've been confronted by none!" ^Probably the best lyric in the whole album.

[@baseballdude13000]

People who are giving them hate for This Light I Hold need to re-listen to this song.

[@austins.5542]

What was wrong with that song i thought it was great!!

[@magiaburst]

And those who are giving them hate on Broken should relisten it, too.

[@jakobfel2]

Yeah, I mean, I understand the frustration with the fact that they've been inching more toward rock territory but even as far as rock goes, they're still top-notch and I totally dig the new stuff. I'm not saying I don't miss this sound from them (I do) but I get that they don't want to have to always play the same sound every album.

[@DeathAngelMusic0]

This is my first time listening to this band. Perfection.

[@Sphelpsx]

This band in my opinion has by far the most meaningful lyrics of any band that i'm aware of, this band is now my #1 band :)

[@kenkenwaterfall6353]

Even though I still listen to this album all the time, still gives me chill. Finding out about them when I was in high school was one of the best feelings of my life. Memphis May Fire is top 5 no questions asked.

[@Akamanda007]

This song is so perfect.. I wish everybody would just stop hating, and just love.

[@Bullseye534]

i agree with both comments. although i wish there was a little more peace on social networks such as youtube.

[@DuskWolf224]

Gene Phillips It probably wouldn't be... But that doesn't mean it wouldn't be a better place.

[@iamCairn]

word. this song resonates with me right now :P

[@danishiylia8450]

this is the best album I've ever heard. every single second in this album is gold!

[@_Calcifer__]

If you do not like this song then you are entitled to your likes and dislikes but don't go slandering the song just because you disagree. Same goes for artist. I understand you get defensive when someone talks about your favorite band but stooping down and making fun of Justin Bieber or 1D or any artist for that matter doesn't make you look any better. Artists are just trying to make music for people to enjoy. If you don't like it, find something of your taste. Don't sit there and bash it because it's not your taste. Seeing your comment only makes you look like a hate monger.

[@DuskWolf224]

This guy. I approve.

[@gratiszebs2890]

Exactly man, i honestly dislike BOTDF, one direction, and justin bieber but i have never went to one of their videos to just waste my time hating. I'm glad other people have the same mentality as me.

[@coltoncking]

A lot of pop artists are under contract and are actually only making songs to make money.

[@_Calcifer__]

***** true as that statement is, it still makes no sense nor gives anyone the right to slander songs/artists. they have no logical reasoning behind it.

[@thedarkroy1794]

SHUT UP ASSHOLE I CAN DO EVERYTHING I WANT

[@dvroble]

Years later and this song is still relevant in 2020

[@sandiadiartamusic]

This is the album i heard since i was 15 years old and now i am 21 , every time i heard this album i feel my taste of music is next level ,this album full of motivation lyrics ,thats all gold lyrics ,thx matty mullins ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@breanna1281]

This song is so rad! I love it omg.

[@Scarletite1]

02:05 It's like the keyboard warrior went, "Oh yeah? I know where you live I'm coming to say it to your face srub!" and then, Matty slowly grins and says, "BRING IT OOOOOOOON YA!" So fucking fierce.

[@ligewilliams3879]

Scarletite This comment is PURE GOLD!! ;-D

[@TuffCustomerFTW]

"So many mouths that love to run, but I just laugh because I've been confronted by none." lol fkin tight.

[@xyzdorky66]

Well this song pretty much sums up 2/3s of society.

[@xenossupreme489]

+Oliver-Vic Carquinn 2/3**

[@IRNjuggle28]

"Do you think those words you're typing are gonna change anything?" Um, yeah. Those words are going to give birth to an amazing song. :D

[@bradleywilliams5152]

Am i the only one that thinks that this band is amazing. I've been scrolling for ages and all I see is hate. Like wtf. Keep that to yourself. When you can make a song that is better than this then judge. Don't ruin something that millions of people find comfort in hearing. This entire album is absolutely phenomenal

[@desteeknee]

I love the beginning of this song. Speaks well of this Generation of people.

[@stev7359]

i love how whenever anyone attempts to troll on a MMF song i can just calmly show them to this song now haha. Thanks Memphis May Fire!

[@BeastGamer297]

BRING IT ON!!! So epic...

[@tacomuncher211]

can't believe they don't play this live......

[@tyrivera9924]

or divinity

[@thebaconflapsable]

haha i have just been ending my sentences with "generation:hate" when talking to a troll or a hater and they don't reply ahahah win

[@thinkofherfondly]

it's so sad that this video has so many arguments and HATE in the comment section. maybe those who have hate to give should listen to the song more than once....

[@Archeum94]

Firetruckin' love it! The chorus is damn catchy

[@hansolzy]

I love you all

[@EUAScene]

Memphis May Fire is one of the very few "scene kid" bands out there that actually have depth and meaning to their lyrics. I swear to God, every single one of their songs applies to my life. Not to mention the similar Father & son issues that we share

[@prestopoo]

This song applies more today than ever

[@archermaravilla1674]

Am I the only one who heard "you silly ho!" In the beginning of the song???

[@TheCommanderCreep]

Thank you so much for bestowing upon me the amazingness that is... ...Silly Hoes.

[@tiffanymontalvo2193]

damn it! lmao I can't un-hear that xD

[@captainleviackerman5057]

+TheCommanderCreep :D

[@deanelson4312]

YES!!!!!! love this song

[@milohollicjomz2926]

this band is my inspiration in life

[@EcliptiKK]

This song is really good, love how a band is actually responding to all the criticism in a song like this. Really good song.

[@ljm247]

I love this. MMF calling trolls out. Top band, top album.

[@Prevailingly]

This song has been in my Twitter bio for two years, and I have no intentions of ever removing it.

[@tjscott9888]

Love this song. Never really listened to Memphis May Fire until I heard this song. Sounds great an has a great meaning.

[@rmnmmnv6548]

Y'all are a group of straight TALENT! This composition is a masterpiece 👌

[@doomslayer7393]

Well said Matty!

[@steviekorinne3981]

I swear to God, if there's any hate comments on this song i will LOL

[@brucewilly]

well said man! I strongly appreciate people like you

[@A7XEric]

I wish more of their stuff sounded like this. That phrygian mode makes this song

[@princers5538]

Leave it to MMF to make a song about a non popular topic sound good though lol.

[@Maynyu]

Just raping the replay button :x

[@adamfranco-gibim2481]

Maynyu m'am look for darkest hour, they're quite different but you'd love them

[@Maynyu]

Adam Franco-Gibim I already know them :p Thanks ^^

[@summalova101]

I found the perfect song to analyse for my English assignment, thanks for the awesome lyrics mmf

[@MyDeathYourLies]

"So many mouths that love to run, but I just laugh because I've been confronted by none", yes matty mullins yes!

[@lilpeepplaylist]

you guys are argueing on the internet that, under a song that is about the internet, and how you are all no lifes and stupid...wait, wouldn't that me me a hypocrite? lol but the song is an 11/10

[@sunny35228]

Calm down.

[@marius6208]

Wouldn't me *me*

[@yberinfernal]

10/10 lyrics

[@emoguitarplayer69]

Seriosly...so true about this generation. If only everyone would wake up and see what this world has come to.

[@WillPlayForFoodBand]

I've listened to almost the entire record, and I have to say, these are the most honest/straight-forward lyrics I've ever heard. Normally, bands try to be cryptic and overly poetic when calling someone out in a song, but Memphis May Fire isn't doing that. And I love that. These guys are going to completely blow up here in a few months into a dominant force in this genre. One of the best signings by Rise Records, if not the best.

[@williammackie3436]

its a shame the word choice makes this all sound so cheesy and middle-schoolerish; maximum edge. guitar work on this album still tied with self-titled for best though

[@justin_hunts692]

...2:07...

[@alternative_action]

Amazing!

[@Vanh0]

This is by far one of the greatest songs, lyrically, I have ever heard. I love MMF's boldness in their lyrics and how well their songs are written. I'm going to probably end up buying several copies of this album at Warped when I see them.

[@alliehamilton2395]

This... Song...Yesssss.

[@FeastOvGoreglutton]

its called trolling, and you took the bait mullins

[@TsukuyomiPlayz]

I love gojira: the axe, the gift of guilt, mouth of kala, vacuity, born in winter 👌🏽

[@alextownley9388]

Bullying is not trolling.

[@midgetmayo]

This is not getting old, still listening 2022

[@devin4l]

This song explains my feelings on just about everything that happens over the Internet

[@Handlenamewastaken]

the day you wanna say it to my face bring it on. chills.

[@kelzmihra]

I love this song. Beyond words. "I'm calling out my generation"

[@ashleybuchheit7624]

The "You sit at home feeling so strong from behind that screen..." are the opening lyrics to this song. The person was relating your negative comment to the lyrics, which match up exactly. You're the kind of person that this song is written about.

[@vocalistsmakebands]

The day you want to say it to my face.. BRING IT ON!!!

[@M3lzRoxSugaPLum]

BEST LYRICS EVER!! ILOVE ALL THERE SONGS !! In love with this band now !:D -3

[@amazingman40]

Currently my new favorite Memphis May Fire song, Sorry The Sinner, this song was just too good.

[@lukecovey14]

I was so happy to hear these lyrics. No one ever confronts the situation of how big and bad these weak people feel behind a screen.

[@cowboisteen7851]

I took a pic with Matty at Warped Tour 2012. My biggest flex ever.

[@BrianSimon94]

So much power in these lyrics.

[@swim4ever1912]

This song is so true. I really don't know how people live with themselves when they bully other people.

[@JamesisSovereign]

I cannot wipe the grin off my face listening to this album.. fucking perfection.

[@eppamonster]

ok I'm hooked they have great lyrics and sound great I didn't expect to like them

[@YouAreWhoreable]

I'm so glad i listen to them.

[@TheCatFather45]

I absolutely agree with you. These lyrics are so amazing

[@sadmire]

I really love this song, the instruments in this just sound amazing and the lyrics are 100% true lol

[@joshuawilson8934]

i love how you put things in an every day life perspective you inspire me to take a stand no matter the trials

[@BestBryFar]

I had no idea who MMF was before today, I've listened to the entire album and I can say I'm a fan now.

[@Qdawg55]

So many people need to listen to this. There are so many things wrong that we do that we just need a reality check

[@VincentX709]

We're here man!

[@Dallenbaker]

I think the reason people hate on something like this song is because they don't know the first thing about what it is about having to work to EARN something for themselves. They are handed everything and have no appreciation for anything. I think kids/adults like that need to have all of that taken away so they can see how hard it is to actually earn something! EXCELLENT SONG btw! Love this album.

[@justaguy392]

my favorite song off the album

[@Sethweigand]

This Album is CALLING people out, Memphis May Fire has the biggest balls of 2012 so far. I'm a fan till the end.

[@AndiSprite96]

I can't get enough of this!!! Can't wait for the album release!

[@cooldudepatrick]

brilliant album, they just keep getting better and better.. pumped to see them at warped there the may reason im going this year

[@Imabanana847]

So awesome that they made a song about this. MMF forever.

[@triforceguitarist]

these lyrics are perfect!

[@jordanosz2962]

Probably thee best album ever ... I can't believe the excellence of this album :) !

[@khmerguy35]

this song should've been titled, "come at me bro."

[@hansolzy]

Great song.

[@xoJalisaxo]

omfg i love this band.

[@TheInfernalCore1]

There seriously isn't one song I dislike from Memphis May Fire. I just want them to be successful and keep producing the music i've grown to love ever since they were with TrustKillRecords.

[@MrGDJ95]

Not many bands have the balls to speak out about this, this is why Memphis May Fire are awesome.

[@TheSteadfastCollective]

BRING IT ON! Definitely the anthem for my college football team this season. We're picked by all the bloggers and analysts to finish last in our division. Time to prove them wrong.

[@juanchoma97]

Their best album

[@declan2297]

this is my favorite song on the whole album!! how does this only have 200k views!?

[@jerbear5212]

Listened to this album a few times now, and with the direction they went i think its one of those times where when they were writing these songs, they knew it would either make or break them. I could be wrong, but with every song having such a forward message, it would have almost looked like a gamble for rise to get behind this release. As always, these guys killed it, and its going to be a very memorable release for a lot of people.

[@TheUnknownSkillers]

He was directly quoting a line from the song that perfectly matched your opinion. You said it was "shouting into a microphone and inspiring junkies" and his rebuttal was to say that you saying that isn't going to change anyone else's opinion of the MUSIC.

[@yasminnxp]

Love the lyrics and the song.

[@ParkourLover4sure]

Memphis May Fire i respect you so bad, only genius can tell his opinion about haters in such a masterpiece

[@23black061]

THIS SONG DEFINITELY NEEDS A MUSIC VIDEO

[@IPimpGrandmas]

they wouldn't say anything to MMF because they are the nicest people i have ever met. Matty, if your reading this, we met at rock yourself to sleep tour in Detroit MI, and it was a blast hanging out with you after you had performed, fun-nest hour and a half of my life! :D
