I am not a product of mistake. I've got a purpose & I'm living it out. This life of mine is no coincidence. I've seen the world & I will never bow down. So bring your temptation to the table, but I'm not giving in. Tell me I'm wrong because I'm different, but I'm not giving in. Time spent waiting for truth to come out of a lie is time that's wasted, so waste away but you're not wasting mine. I am not a product of mistake. I've got a purpose & I'm living it out. This life of mine is no coincidence. I've seen the world & I will never bow down. Never bow down! I might walk this road alone, but I know that it's taking me home. I know that you're bringing me back where I belong. When everyone tells me that I am wrong, I'll stay strong because I'm on my way home. I have seen, I've heard, I've felt your unfailing love & I'll never be the same. Nothing can break me. No weapon formed against me shall prosper. This is a war you've already won. So no matter what comes my way, I'll stay the course. I might walk this road alone, but I know that it's taking me home. I know you're bringing me back, bringing me back where I belong. When every voice I hear is saying I'm wrong, I stay strong because I'm on my way home. On my way home. On my way home. On my way home. I'm on my way! I spend my days living for what is to come. No evil can stand in my way because you've already won. You've already won! I might walk this road alone. I might walk this road alone, but I know that it's taking me home. I know that you're bringing me back where I belong. When every voice I hear is saying I'm wrong, I stay strong because I'm on my way home. I'm on my way home.

If you ever get lost in a desert, just walk 30 minutes in any direction and you'll come across a metalcore band filming their music video.

[@MCR459]

bruh!😂👏

[@yeoliepop9981]

omg

[@crewd00d]

Comment of the year award haha

[@matiyev]

Or not metalcore.

[@TheCakeIsALie4602]

Archangel XD

[@ericsmith5881]

For someone who loves this heavy atmospheric music, Memphis May Fire is a band I can go hard to and head band and shout the lyrics, but more importantly worship God and relate to the lyrics in the song! Memphis Mayfire is definitely a rare breed of musically inclined artists!

[@Katie129675483]

I GET IT! The video is referring to Luke 4:4-13 Jesus walked in the desert for 40 days, and the devil tempted him and every time jesus said a scripture, "it is written man cannot live on bread alone" "It is written worship the Lord your God and serve hime only." "It is said do not put the Lord your God to the test." The video is basically a version of that, i guess. We need to stay a course that will get us to heaven.

[@zachroberts92]

Katie Leverenz that's what i got out of it also. Obviously I mean it's not a total reenactment or anything cause Matty isn't portraying Jesus or anything like that but I think it is supposed to demonstrate how we are supposed to walk uprightly like Jesus did before God even in the face of temptations always being equipped with the word of God whenever we encounter any difficult situation.

[@archermaravilla1674]

I thought this was a love song lol...

[@Katie129675483]

Zach Roberts I'm happy i'm not the only person who gets this. I do like this song though 😊🐼. And if i was the only person who got it i would be questioning some people in the world...

[@augusttoday]

Katie Leverenz also, the verse where Jesus talks about narrow is the righteous path, but broad is the way to destruction. This song is saying even though I’m walking alone, I’m on my way home.

[@calebrawlins8916]

Amen!

[@dustynbeasley891]

This is my #1 song until I die. I'm a Christian. This song has a huge meaning. When every voice I hear is saying I'm wrong. I stay strong, because I'm on my way home!!😍 Thank You Father, and thank you for Your Son Jesus Christ. Our Lord and our Saviour, forever and ever!!!

[@klarkkent7838]

This band saved my life. Drug and alcohol addicted, broken hearted, faithless, contemplating an early clock out, and imprisoned ... they brought me back to my senses with their music and let me know that all I had to do was step out of the darkness into the light to end my suffering. Thanks again guys. Keep shinning the light, because without you guys I may have never found my way out of all of that darkness.

[@axzelis1996]

Stay strong bro! Very inspiring and touching story.

[@marcinmajewski3495]

[@ItsAmplified]

Let's be real. True fans of MMF won't sit here and just post negative comments. Doing nothing but comparing them to there older albums...they are not the same they we're then...do you guys not understand that. Bands evolve/adapt to new sounds all the time and personally I loved this song. Loved the integration of a guitar solo too cause I don't think I have ever heard them do one in a song before. Some people will never be satisfied with change. Oh well. Great song!

[@sksossamon]

RyanMayFire I'm sure I like music/songs you don't like as well. I understand they want to adapt and change, but that doesn't mean I am going to like it (and other people, for that matter). There are plenty of bands I've loved that have changed styles over the years. MMF is just not one of them I am particularly fond of at the moment. We are all entitled to our opinions, though. If someone doesn't agree with yours, that doesn't mean they are wrong.

[@ItsZifx]

I've been a fan since the beginning, all because they messaged my KZbin to check them out 😂. I have no problems once so ever with all the songs they put out. Some people just love hating, that's it lol

[@emileeisonfire7]

RyanMayFire yes!

[@McYates24]

RyanMayFire True fans don't blindly praise the band, but rather question their integrity if they see it necessary.

[@emileeisonfire7]

***** true fans DONT blindly praise the band. They respect their decisions as musicians AND enjoy the music. It doesn't have to be one or the other.

[@Joshandthekingdom]

Whoa...there is a guitar solo that isnt a breakdown in a memphis may fire song? THERE IS A GOD!!!! This is what i want.

[@arthurramalho1297]

Joshua This is creativity

[@D3M0N1C_T4C0]

Joshua its kinda like a breakdown behind the guitar solo, but yeah it is pretty sick.

[@serious_goose]

The Hollow will forever be their greatest album because it was the first album I listened to of theirs. I hate it when a band changes their sound and goes soft, but Memphis May Fire seems to be maturing really well to be honest. They always have a certain unique sound that makes them sound like themselves despite how heavy or soft their songs are, and I admire that about them. I'll never say this often, but I love the sound change and I love this song. Excited to hear new things from them...

[@synix7331]

Ryan AndersEn yeh man the hollow is just too good to beat.

[@cousy4]

So true. This song is as good as they've ever sounded.

[@lucasvincent7458]

Ryan AndersEn Sleepwalking > The Hollow

[@xsonicassassinx]

Ryan AndersEn sleepwalking is the only album of theres that constitutes as music

[@AgeofFreeman]

Ryan AndersEn Their first album and The Hollow are amazing, as well as the EP before The Hollow. I just hate how over-produced his cleans are.. he sounds so much bitchier then he use to.

[@davefernandez4854]

This is Memphis May Fire Great song Great solo Great everything

[@inuprasetyaputra7084]

the most favorite MMF song for me. from this song, I didn't want to stop and always try to moving forward

[@LuizFelipe-hc4lf]

Awesome song, again!

[@michellebeauchamp9810]

this song is a literal demonstration of perfect balance between heavy music technique

[@ElephantOnATurtle]

I could almost agree.

[@ianocono]

Heavy music technique... And what?

[@CRXXS]

And style

[@michellebeauchamp9810]

Sorry it was supposed to be techniques. It uses multiple styles all in one to just create this perfect song

[@DAS1337]

This djent pop (what I like to call it) is quite the awesome mix, I'd agree. You can headbang and sing at the same time. Not many bands make me do that.

[@m.c.2999]

I wonder why whenever an artist is singing meaningful lyrics people dislike it. I love every member of MMF and the lead singer. I faced depression and they helped me get through it. I love what God has offered them to do because through God and the band they helped me see the world and my life differently. I just love and support them so much. And ofc I love that they are different.

[@stupidjeloinc]

>In a desert >Summer Time >Wears leather jacket

Memphis May Fire has helped me out through so much and they have never fell short i will fallow them till the such an amazing real band

[@nathanbenson2122]

That was amazing.Matty I love your lyrics to your songs they are so positive and pointing kids an adults towards Christ.Thank you and you band

[@emanosovelez2716]

Thank you Memphis may fire for bringing me closer to God, and inspiring me to keep on staying strong you guys are heroes.

[@carakaleighmorris4508]

I love the refrance to Isaiah 54:17! this song is and music video is amazing!!!! Is corresponds with so many scriptures about what Christians battle with. This is a war song fr.

[@PhilliaPhobia]

Amazing song! Can't wait to hear this on Warped!

[@daytripink3948]

They played it yesterday at Alaska warped it was so sick 😍

[@PhilliaPhobia]

They played My Generations too right?

[@teufelshund5691]

Roonie Roodke I hope they don't.

[@PhilliaPhobia]

Matty confirmed they will play both these new tracks on the tour. I'm okay with it because this is my 4th time seeing them so I've heard all of the other tracks i wanted to hear.

[@teufelshund5691]

Roonie Roodke I've only seen them live twice, & that was before Unconditional. Thank god, but Warped... I'm not sure If I'm going to see them..

[@RenownedZ3r0]

Love Memphis May Fire! If you want to hear a similar band, check out blessthefall guys!

[@nicholasmini4604]

This song has everything that a true fan could want: a positive, encouraging message, heavier vocals from Matty, a rad guitar solo showcasing Kellen. Honestly, stay the course is probably one of the group's best all-around songs. Love you guys!

[@be4ns613]

This is the first song I've heard by them...DAMN I've found my fave band.

[@bianca146g]

same :D

[@xanderrapanut9464]

same here but I think pierce the veil is awesome

[@OneSantiMeter]

Go listen to The Hollow in it´s entirety! For most of MFF´s fans, The Hollow represents their best work.

[@teufelshund5691]

^THIS. TY.

[@leebragg1754]

I know right? haha

[@juniorcoqueiro]

AMAZING!!

[@MCR459]

dude when they play this song life I literally almost cried it's so powerful! beautiful message!

[@jakehickman4306]

Just when I was losing faith...this is sick! Nice work MMF

[@tani4925]

I love this song. I love how Matty switches from Screams to Cleans. The Guitar solo was unexpected, but certainly amazing! Drums are great great as usual. The bass wasn't audible like you guys did with all of unconditional.

[@pedrotraguil8511]

I wish their next album sounds like this again, i miss these MMF, such powerfull vocals and guitar riffs

[@ShawnSecrets]

Mind Blown. Beautiful music video. Beautiful music.

[@chrispennington1444]

I love how they are a heavy band and still find ways to praise The Lord. I love their music. Keep it up guys!!!

[@shogairah4341]

Memphis May Fire never fails to touch my heart with their music 😢

[@risingvikings5834]

Not necessarily my favorite song by Memphis May Fire, but very inspirational and hits close to home for me. It seems that every time I've hit an interesting transition in my life, one of MMF's new songs has popped up and somehow really relates to it. Gaaaah, I'm really pining to see these guys live someday.

[@Yonkecon]

After hearing this, I'm so ready for a new album. i like this new sound from this song. Despite what people say about "The Hollow" being the only good album, this right hear is definitely comparable and shows how much you guys have matured and grown.

[@landoncripemusic]

No weapon formed against me shall prosper This is a war you've already won So no matter what comes my way I'll stay the course

[@lilb.b.6696]

This is literally my new favorite piece by Memphis. The melodics are sick, and the lyrics are spot on. They're the only band I know of that haven't strayed from their morals, and I really love that about them.

[@delaneyhicks2309]

I love how Matty looks so hardcore but he's actually really sweet and caring

[@MultiUlviyya]

1:50 - goosebumps love you guys

[@RX2Productions]

Why are people getting mad because of a guitar solo in this song!?! The guitar fits perfectly and sounds great! I was so happy to hear that!

[@Screamo4Life101]

I can't believe the chills this song gives me. Everything about this song is so spot on!!!!!!

[@lingerfan15]

Another hit. Thank God for them.

[@greysweater1636]

I just found my new favourite band.

[@jaredpena1068]

I love listening to these bands with a good message because the message in my head is loud but yall are immeasurably louder

[@alisheikh95]

First guitar solo? WOW. IMPRESSED. I CAN'T WAIT TO HEAR IT AT WARPED LITERALLY.

[@romysthbeckley]

one of the best songs of MMF

[@mmf-rules]

It's timeless ❤🔥

[@michaelfaulkner9753]

This is Amazing so worth the wait and they have such a wonderful God given talent to make great inspirational songs!!!

[@megustale69]

Right off the bat this song pulls you in, and it maintains that high level of quality start to finish. I like the change in production from the last album as well. Great way to start my morning!

[@juanparra4367]

I can never get enough of this song memphis may fire is life

[@nomorecakes]

if you are lost in the desert walk any direction, you are bound to find a metalcore band recording a music video

[@iiimDev]

DOPE! LOVE IT!

[@BloodnightStudios]

This is an incredible song with very powerful and anointed lyrics. Matty and co, you guys have spoken God's words to me through this song. This song completely represents my life right now. Thank you! God bless.

[@stellacrosti9743]

I AM SO EXCITED FOR YOUR SOUTH AFRICA VISIT!!!!!!!!!

[@samthebimmerguy]

I personally love this song. No one has to, but I, personally, think it's amazing.

[@dadslittlecorner]

These guys killed it Monday in Nashville!

[@nathanmcclymont3950]

this song relates to my situation perfectly. its songs like this that help when im feeling alone in my faith, and give me the drive to carry on and 'stay the course'.

[@yungfrancis777]

When I thought Memphis May Fire couldn't get any better. Amazing job guys.

[@ShireenLilith]

The new album is gonna be killer!!

[@SteveAboagye1]

I still think MMF's best work was The Hollow

[@brandonmichael7102]

At least you didn't call it the sinner album LOL

[@hotdevilzz]

lmao as if anyone else thinks otherwise

[@TheTrevytrev]

With regards to breakdowns and maybe even the heaviness, I totally agree. But as musicians, these guys have evolved tremendously. They continue to grow and change as musicians and diversify their music in every release. In my opinion, they're as good as they've ever been, if not better.

[@XrcJustinCredibleMan]

Steve Aboagye The Hollow was a good runner up, but Challenger definitely takes the Gold.

[@ryanedpaul583]

Typical 😒

[@mxhcmusicpromotions]

I've been a fan since the beginning and the progression you guys have gone through is amazing. To be honest, one of the few big bands in this genre that deserve to be that big.

[@scottfroggatt3686]

This is what i love to see, Matty, with his band creating and playing seriously awesome music as a band. Most importantly, Matty is a follower of Jesus and is a Christian. In my opinion that is just amazing and that is why this band is very special and inspiring in many ways. Just goes to show that you can still be religious and have a belief in God as well as sing in a metal. So for that i have massive respect for Matty. Praise the Lord!

[@giohl9l4l]

WAY better than my generation

[@teufelshund5691]

Do yourself a favor, whenever this notifies you and you read this, listen to this song again. 🤘🏽

[@justindade9560]

GOD IS GREATER! Love this Matty.

[@ghdude150]

This is the first song I've heard in a while that actually got me excited for more

[@richardchristian5433]

This song gives me chills. Don't know why but this song could be a punch for all bad comments regarding Unconditional album

[@desistx1]

I remember when this band added me on Facebook in 2007 when they had 500 some odd fans. Been with them ever since! People give them shit for writing "religious" lyrics, when in actuality you can apply that to anything in your life. Matty is a great dude and is genuine in his lyrics. If you don't like their new music, listen to the old. If you don't like the old, listen to the new. And if you're like me, listen to it all! Stop trying to be a critic and just listen to the great music.

[@JspauInc]

Thank you for being an old school fan but respecting their new music too. :D I love all of their albums. ;)

[@STARSDYEDRED]

thats so cool!

[@tristonbourque275]

I enjoy seeing all of these hate comments. People tend to forget that if a band CONSTANTLY writes the same material, you receive no gains. All I see Memphis doing is maturing as a band, and that's great for them. This music isn't bad, it's just not what we're all used to

[@Titanner666]

Triston Bourque Or the music's bad. Personal preferences, my friend.

[@ssd1374]

[@ssd1374]

Nate Annen Agreed

[@izmaboud1581]

Nate Annen best song since the hollow? Have you heard alive in the lights, red tooth in a claw, vices, sleepless nights? Better songs IMO.

[@nannen342]

Yes I have heard all of those, I own all their albums. I follow MMF carefully. However, in my opinion this song is a lot better than those.

[@nannen342]

Although Vices is up there, I really love that song

[@Thevikingninja117]

Ugh unconditional was amazing home boy

[@ClearAdventure]

Loving the music! I think this singer has SO much talent! I like when he sings more than when he screams, but I am old-school, and digging it!!!

[@hunterlarsen5132]

Love this song very up lifting for us who are struggling with temptation

[@IProdigious]

Amazing work. You guys just keep getting better & better. From the first song you guys released until now. In the end it isn't what your fans want to hear that's important it's what YOU guys want to play & share with us. It's clear to me that you all as a band understand that/ Keep up the amazing work!

[@TWMFBand]

Was really hoping the hooded figure would turn out to be Darth Maul, the desert would turn out to be Tatooine, this video would turn out to be Star Wars Episode VII, and Matty and Maul would duke it out with sabers. Great song anyway!

[@ryancromer5376]

[@RthereNEusernames]

[@lucasmedeiros.]

DerpShark a fucking great solo .they did a nice job on guitars

[@memequeen1435]

Apparently you haven't listened to their older stuff

[@jazz-5436]

When I was like 7 to me this type of music was all screaming and I thought it was awful and 8 years later I scream along and freak out over it lmao how times have changed

[@MelloLover69]

always loved this song. wish they performed it live more. haven't heard it in like 2 years.

[@egJohnegSmith-tq7ey]

So what Matty's lyrics are simplistic. He's doing a he'll of a lot more for his listeners than other bands. I love bands like Asking Alexandria that don't necessarily contain positive messages in their songs but music is even better when bands like MMF and The Amity Affliction create songs with inspiring lyrics that promote life, individuality, and the belief that everyone has worth and deserves to be heard. MMF's lyrics are 10 times as simplistic as its rival bands, but they hit home harder than all of those other bands combined. If you're gonna hate on simplistic lyrics, hate on Attila.

[@S3RSH]

Did anyone noticed he's talking about God and His word?

[@brxken_bvtterfly]

Yep and it's beautiful

[@ScoobaMusic]

Yep cause Matty's a badass Christian

[@MCR459]

yes I love it!

[@codcade]

Yeah

[@codcade]

It's funny most these people aren't Christians

[@armandocasas4622]

"No evil can stand in my way because u already won"!!! Deep lyrics

[@Memoreism]

This video reminds me of when the prophet Elijah traveled 40 days and 49 nights in the wilderness. He fled for his life because Jezebel sent for people to kill him. But he stayed the course and God provided for him.

[@ConnorRoyMusic]

WOW! Amazing stuff, guys! Love the continuation of Biblically inspired lyrics! NO WEAPON FORMED AGAINST ME SHALL PROSPER!!!!!

[@ShereeAshleyArend]

This is an amazing song, and I love the video!! I can't wait to these guys at Warped this Tuesday.

[@ricsmith22]

I don't care what anyone thinks.. there's just something about their music I love

[@Yeetus1337]

All of these people say that The Hollow was their best work, and I just can't see how. I've listened to plenty of it, and sure it's a great album, but Unconditional is just such a masterpiece. The messages of hope in this song, Beneath The Skin, The Answer, and so many others are way beyond the other albums in my opinion.

[@johnnycolon8408]

It's mostly the same train that a lot of fans hop onto if you catch my meaning
