    This is one of the most passionate, soul-gripping songs I've ever heard.
    I've really never heard a song quite like this. It captivates my heart every time I hear it and my mind resonates with every word in the lyrics.
    What a special gift this is to the Christian rock community.
    Thank you to Wolves At The Gate for baring your hearts in the music and for boldly declaring TRUTH!

    The morning is coming with a hunger to feed.
    I'll do what I've got to get the taste that I need.
    Minute by minute and hour by hour.
    I'll feed this pit with what I find and all I can scour.
    Give me a feather and I'll trade you my friend.
    It's just a single feather dear,
    It won't be the end.
    Watch and you'll learn young one,
    I'm not what you think.
    I'll give you all you'd ever want
    To eat and to drink.
    Too far to run,
    Too hard to fly.
    There's got to be a better way.
    Too far to run,
    Too hard to fly.
    A feather's small to give away.
    One was the deal before but now I want three.
    So if you want to get your fix
    You'll have to agree.
    Don't you fret now don't you fear,
    You've still got much to give.
    I'll keep my word if you keep yours.
    You still need me to live.
    Too slow to run.
    Too weak to fly.
    I'm tired living day to day.
    Too slow to run.
    Too weak to fly.
    How much will I have to pay?
    Fool don't you see, you haven't a choice.
    No one will listen, hear out your voice.
    You're lost and accursed.
    Lost and accursed
    You're dying of thirst.
    Stop with your fighting, I'm all you've got.
    None hear your crying,
    You're hooked and caught.
    Was three, now it's six.
    Come get your fix.
    Too scared to run,
    Too nerved to fly.
    I once was friend but now the prey.
    Too scared to run,
    Too nerved to fly.
    Will he save or will he slay?
    Submit yourselves, then, to God.
    Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
    Draw near to God and He will draw near to you.
    Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts.
    It's the last time that you'll get me.
    It's the last time that you'll get me.
    Me.
    It's your last one so now I'm free.
    It's your last one so now I'm free.
    Free.
    He was a murderer from the beginning
    He does dot stay to the truth cause there is no truth in him.
    Whenever he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own nature
    For he is a liar, the father of lies.
    No! All you've brought me is pain and grief.
    All you've brought me is pain and grief.
    Grief.
    No! You deceptive and lying thief.
    You deceptive and lying thief.
    Thief.
    No!
    No!
    No!
    No!
    Thank you my friend and now I'll say my goodbye.
    As these fangs sink in,
    You'll sleep and I'll watch as you die.

    Oh this freaking song, it sets me straight. When the temptation comes just blast this song... see if you're tempted after that. Thank God for these wonderful people.

    The screamed no's at the end make it for me. The whole album and this song especially are overflowing with passion but those last no's feel like their torn straight from heart. I love the sincerity that you can hear in their music. It really goes a long way in spreading the message the songs are trying to portray.

    @RyanMcKennargh 9 ปีที่แล้ว +13

    I've still got a real taste for this type of music, but it's the Truth that this band speaks keeps bringing me back.
    "My Epic" is a hardcore band that sings from The Word as well! Although, even the lame songs at church are radical when they're from scripture and True!!

  • @Iridescence091
