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 KZbin. 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!!! ♥️♥️

[@dreamingacacia]

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.

[@ArticulateDesignASMR]

I don't know if you manage your own channel or not Mike, but on the off chance you're reading this - the whole world still grieves with you. However equally as important, we all recognise the enormous talent you have always possessed and how you've taken an absolute tragedy and used it as a catalyst for creation, instead of further destruction. Good luck in all your endeavours, i'll be here listening to it all.

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 album shows what Mike had lost. We all are still hurting but have you ever asked yourself a question- Who was Chester for us? He was someone we admired from our heart. He was a voice in our headphones. If that was it, imagine the condition of someone who spent almost all their time with him. Stay strong Mike :-) WE LOVE YOU

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.

[@nightrose8365]

Finally someone who noticed that. Yeah everyone thinks just Chester was struggling. Mike was just as bad as chester at that time.

[@raymondnewbill5294]

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!!!

[@theharshtruthoutthere]

@@avtotvarelashvili The real reason singers became world wide pop stars and his solo career blow up was because of the freemasonry hand signs he show`d again and again. The 2 popular hand signs M J used often were 666 and devil horns. 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.

I'm not saying that all lyrics about these stuff are bad or that everyone who is listening to this is a bad person. But when all they talk about is how they fuck bitches everyday and they are "the best" is pretty shitty. I see it everyday at school, people listening to those "lil shits" always end up being complete assholes. Those lyrics are filling up their heads.

This is probably my favorite song from "Post Traumatic". I notice the dedication in the music and the lyrics. I love you, Mike.

[@souravsarkar8563]

He is so much about raw simplicity. It's just him. No one can be so straight and simple while at the same time touch the chords of your memories... Brilliant!! I hope he does a song with Ilsey Juber... they'll be amazing together...

What do you mean by "the year"? It's definitely the album of the whole century. Strictly no other artist can put such energy, dedication, and strength in an album. No other artist ever had an album so meaningful, powerful and... Somehow painful. There's the next levem magic here. Definitely

[@wiseowl1580]

P.s Yes I like your rap. Its unique, but I am from a time when rap was not cool. So yeah really love this in particular because this is you. This is brilliant music, melody, and rhythm. This made me realize how talented you were silently behind Chester. I'm rooting for you. Your song "Cant hear you now" is top 2 from you (for me) but it does upset me lol. I know Chester made those around him hurt but becareful...he is dead afterall and your carrying a legacy. Yeah he was difficult but he was musically a genius and his voice had more power than anyone I have ever heard personally. If Angel's could sing, I'd envision Chester Bennington. A lot of us out here dont believe him or Chris committed suicide and you must have your doubts, right? If you sold out well that's your cross to bare.

[@Willbubu]

Oh lord, 6 years later but i've discovered this song today. Everything is so GOOD, music, voice and video !!! Thank you so much for this album, I feel so blessed. About to spend the whole day listening to it. Love you bro !

This whole album... Aaahh I love it sooo much. The deepest and most emotional lyrics I'd heard for a long time. The whole interpretation of each song is phenomenal. Thank you Mike for this masterpiece. You do it for yourself, for Chester, for Linkin park and for every Fan around the globe. Thank you for the soundtrack of an whole generation. I think Chester sits up there in the sky, found his freedom and listen to your lovely words. THANK YOU MIKE!!!

Mike, thank you for keeping this music alive.. please please don't change it at all man. I miss Chester, you alls music made me feel better when life was bad to me. Im really happy that even though we lost Chester, a bit of it is still alive thats all we need mike, just something to constantly remind us of how into linkin Park we are, how great chester was and how he took his life, and you mike. Thing is, if you were the one instead of Chester, Mike, we would still feel the same way. Like we have literally lost a part of us. Chester would of done the same thing as you keeping the spirit alive. Thank you Mike.

[@djoHn548]

Mike you probably won’t read this. I’ve listened to Linkin Park since I was small. I lost my best friend to suicide in high school and even now, 5 years later, I still feel empty. And somewhat guilty. This whole album is painfully therapeutic for me. I appreciate you. And feel for you. Peace and love man.
