Drop C for the ultimate win. I wonder if they wrote this 12 years ago and for whatever the reason, it didn't make the cut. Now, all this time later, they're like "Hey remember that one song? Let's make a single out of it!" and here we are. That's how seamless this shit seems to me.

The second sign concerns the sun, which will loom larger, brighter and begin to spin. Scientists will say it was a global illusion. Beaware - Jesus will never walk in flesh again. After WW3 - rise of the “ man of peace“ from the East = Antichrist - the most powerful, popular, charismatic and influential leader of all time. Many miracles will be attributed to him. He will imitate Jesus in every conceivable way. Don`t trust „pope“ Francis = the False Prophet - will seem to rise from the dead - will unite all Christian Churches and all Religions as one. One World Religion = the seat of the Antichrist. Benedict XVI is the last true pope - will be accused of a crime of which he is totally innocent. - banking collapse was deliberately masterminded by the Antichrist - Antichrist will step in and create a false peace in the state of Israel by joining them with palestine in an unlikely alliance. - „He will recite extracts from My Teachings, which he will passionately proclaim from every secular stage in the world, until people sit up and take notice of him.“ The Book of Truth mdmlastprophet.com/arab-uprising-will-spark-global-unrest-italy-will-trigger-fall-out/ mdmlastprophet.com/the-schism-in-my-church-will-be-broken-into-different-stages/

Relious groups were like, "did he just say Amgels deserve to die? Oh, well that's causse this band is the Devil's work! This is just Lucifer trying to steal our chidlren!" It was like no stupid Karen, do your homework, duh - it's about self rights to do whatever the HELL we want with our lives, even if it means too die by our own hand. Our own drug. Our own hell. Or whatever I chose to do with it, not you Karen..." It was like damn, don't these Karen types read lyrics or understand what he means, perhaps ask them and find out it is sad song, but yet it's not because it is very liberating to know that even people around you see YOU, ME, HE, SHE, WE, OR ALL OF US - as Angel's... It's just too bad we don't look at each other as ALL beautiful ANGELS IN OUR OWN RIGHTS, BODY'S & MINDS... Nope, not us we dumb ass humans are still arguing over some rock where somebosy ascended from at this exact spot or whatever abrahamic based religion, like DUH, JEWS, CHRISTIANS AND MUSLIMS ARE ALL FROM ABRAHAM. SO WHY WOULD ANY HOLY WAR EVEN EXIST IF WE ARE BELIEVE IN Abraham? And we Humans think we are even ready to meet another race, species, alien or whatever--- really look down from above, we are an embarrasment to each other species, wtf do you think they would say looking down at us? "ahh, look they are soo cute, loving, warm and helpful to each other- what a wonderful species this planet is, we should go down and say "hi" and meet them... Yeah, right! Maybe someday, after we ALL get together and just be humble & kind to each other. "Humble & KInd" hmm great country song tho.... But then we would have to give up things like "gun powder...' Well, yeah maybe---whatever Rob keep the pipe dream alive.... Nameste, Amen, Amun Ra, thank you, bless you, may Christ be with you, allah akbar... Think about that ending...

@@renansamlas I've said this before and I'll keep saying it. I'd rather them not put out an album than force on out. I think something that contributes to them not wanting to put out an album is the fact that a new album has been hyped up so much by fans that no matter what they put out it wont meet expectations. Even if its good in wont be as good as some might have hoped. At most I'd like a live album of some sort. Wake Up the Souls would be awesome since the videos I've seen of that tour were badass.
