MIKASA // LYRICS
Before me there stands an opportunity
There for the taking In this moment - this exact moment
I shall prepare myself
To face a monster of which only I may conquer
Conjure the power bestowed upon our souls
Conjure the power
Align the stones to form a message in the sand
I will never relinquish
It is written in the sand
Which lies below me
Staring back at a helpless man
I've done all I can
It lies in the hands of those who seek a voice soaring above the rest
Built from the ground
Forming scratches upon the surface
We survive in wretched of times
We survive in wretched of times
Conjure the power
We survive in wretched of times
And we thrive in the most wretched of times

I don't wanna like this... but I REALLY fucking like this.
You don't want to like this because...
sirstickykey Cuz it's not Veil...........but it IS VEIL!
Joooooooeeeee
Exactly how I feel
ThatKiDwiththeDrums I thought cleans would be the death of them and wasn't looking forward to it at all....but damn i really dig this
you know its metal when the bass has more strings than the guitar
except for the tons of bands that use 8 string guitars haha
Djent*
Neo Seoul by ATB for example?
no
Lol bro
That is one of the catchiest metalcore cleans I've heard
Do you also enjoy Periphery or Erra?
@@treehann Prayer Position is a wicked tune by periphery!
@@GaiaSymphonyUniverse one of many :)
Erra and periphery are fucking rad
No is metalcore
It's Proggresive Metalcore and ocassionally Djent
So this is Mikasa Ackerman's theme song when she's slaying titans
no, stop it
@@joshualox32 wym no :0
@@hanson9837 i would assume he’s just an anime hater
@@RubyXIII dudes trynna deny the fact that they legit made the song for Mikasa 😭😂
the lyrics are blatently about mikasas view
Cannot stop listening to this...
Me either, and to be honest I wasnt sure if I liked it at all through the first two listens. But I gave it another chance and now Ive been blasting this shit on repeat for days!
Agreed i actually was disgusted at first but then my noggin told to quit being stoopid and now i enjoy the hell out of the new sound
Smithysmithin me neither dude.
Second that motion, this song is so melodic and so good!
Smithysmithin Same lol. I probably listened to it at least 10 times today lol.
Mikasa es su casa
You, mexicans...
+bob bobson X'DD
+bob bobson :v :v
+bob bobson That kinda made my day
+Phellipe Diaz mexicano solo porque escribe en español?
I've been looping this song the past few days. So good.
yesssssssssss
I’ve been listening to this band for a while and I just barely found this song. What the 🤬
CONJURE DE POWEEERR
its an everyday thing for me
Its certified by rgt that its good
mikasa always proving that she deserves every inch of recognition :) im so mad i didn't find this song earlier and it sounds so good
This rules.
Hey casual Jake Bowen
Jake Bowen Damn right it does. Great direction for these guys from a long time VoM fan. Also, Omega > Alpha ;)
Jake slipping in that diiiiiii....I mean comment ;D ahaha
+Jake Bowen youre great
Fuck yes it does, not to mention you can't neglect music when periphery's guitar player likes it.
That chorus is so fucking addictive
Yes
Thx Osu.
I'm glad someone else thinks so.
Precisely. Its catchy but also sung very well.
The chorus should have been a minute long "ERENNNNNNN“
wow yes AOT
*EREH*
✨ EREH✨
I agree, it should have been
EREEEEEEHH
Next song "Levi Ackerman" .
Erwin Smith better

4 Ramí This music is based on an anime character tho
Holy fuck I'd NEVER thought I'd be fond of the idea of Veil of Maya employing catchy hooks and choruses but this shit right here is super rad.
You came here from Luke Hollands video didn't you? I did. I see u on a lot of his vids.
+MrCJduo partly! I knew of this band before, just wasn't aware of this song
+Charlie's Drum Corner haha same!
Dude! Luke hollands dule cover of this some is fucking rediculous!!!!!
+Tim Mendez Your spelling is as well.
the chorus is very catchy.
Janusz Okoń agreed
Damn agreed
Why not bro
Ikr
choruses are the worst part of this band by far
I wonder how many SnK/AOT fans got introduced to this amazing song/band after searching up Mikasa :D
I did and now I’m looking for more songs like this one but of different anime lmao...I remember being 12ish when listening to this for the very first time and being introduced to aot
Edit: I was on shuffle on spotify when i stumbled upon this song and thought mikasa was a greek godess or sum from a series lmao
I actually know Attack on Titan from this song xD
Opposite. I knew VOM before AOT
I found this song from osu ;w; And downloaded the beatmap bc Mikasa... ofc...
I'm a weird AoT fan xDD
@@late8138 i suck so bad at osu, but i'm so thankful i discover my favourite artist there, reol!!
Anyone else feel like 9/10 metalcore bands since 2015 have just been chasing this sound? One of the best metalcore tracks ever.
This has been the metalcore sound for 15 years
I'm in love with the fucking chorus omg
00:48 Stealing burgers of a helpless man
Once you hear it, it cannot be unheard
o fuck :(
Lmao 😂
Lol
omg! i can't unhear it!
@@TamishraBiswas Make me a sandwich, please?
This is what happen when you love Mikasa too much
back here again after seeing Mikasa once more on AoT s4 e06
Same!
I'm back here after chapter 138!
that's what happens when you watch a lot of anime
Strabby Crabby un plFo
What
SuperSonic2324 YT This song is based off of Mikasa Ackerman from Attack on Titan, an anime
I thought so.
@@timothyrogers8769 proof? I was joking to myself that it was but if it's actually is the case then that's really cool!

🙏 Thanks
That chorus is so catchy, every time it plays I snap my fingers like a jazz guy. By far my favorite track from them, thank you 👌🏻
Let it be known that what partly attracted to me to these guys was the amount of nerdiness they put into the names of their songs on Matriarch
Same.
Please Veil of Maya, do more songs like this! Agressive with clean chorus and a great instrumentals... this song is addictive.
....and that they did! ...and the rest is history!
a freaking master piece for all the metal existing on this planet!
The level of foreshadowing of this song is insane.
just dropping by for my daily visit #mikasa
Hello good sir! Enjoy a bias free listen! #VeilHasRisen \m/
***** hey your dead how you talking lol
Lol that's funny
eli joe #3visitsdaily xD I love this song SOOO MUCHHH!!!
eli joe Haha I visit this video daily as well!
Jesse stop singing! Jesse stop!! We gotta cook Jesse!!
ERRA reference ftw
voxextremos22 no wtf?? Breaking Bad. Cause the vocalist looks like Jesse. Idiot
Calm down i don't watch breaking bad.
voxextremos22 They did a Breaking Bad spinoff.
You mean spoof i didn't watch it
Mikasa: “Eren”
Everyone: “aw shit, here we go again”
Eren : squawk!
God damn, Sam has to be one of the best Metalcore drummers in the scene! Dude has so much power behind that kit!
Has good but have you heard Chris Turner from oceans ate Alaska
No, this is not your house this is Mikasa
when you speak spanish and english :v
Tais Antonelli tacos
Eu entendi
Falo português, but I love English y hablo espanol tambien
Tais Antonelli Spanglish
I've watched this video a dozen times and everytime I do I can never pay attention to the video, I'm just blinded by the song itself
more like blown. again and again
DAME itsnso weird
I swear, whenever I'm at the gym and can't push anymore, that chorus hits and I squeeze out one or two more reps.
Certified hood classic
I've never been a fan of "clean vocals" but I can't stop listening to this song
yeah me too actually.
+1
***** Yeah you are one of those "Oh look, I saw VoM fans are arguing about the new vs old VoM. I MUST join the old VoM fans so that I look much smarter and cooler!>" 8 years old kids.
***** I have no hesitate to say I love this band from The Common Man's Collapse to Matriach. And from your "must be 10 years old" comment, I can see who is 10 years old now. Because why the fuck not? Why can't people who like Veil Of Maya listen to this and that makes them 10 years old? Fucking hell I hate these kinds of people in music community. I mean, from Foo Fighters, Green Day, to Slipknot, to Disturbed, Korn, and VoM? These kinds of kids actually making this community looks stupid. They're trying to look "not following the trends" but went far too fucked up.
I fell in love with this band early in highschool during common mans collapse.
Its not safe to swim today will forever be laid into my DNA. All bands change and this just makes me sad. They NEED Brandon back.
I really love how he says "sand" the first time in the chorus... "siand"
yeh me too, it sounds awesome!
sieeend
How can you understand what their saying? He's screaming like an idiot
Angela Jones the chorus has clean vocals
Angela Jones Because people in the metal community can understand screams. Once you listen to something enough you learn to understand. It’s not complicated. Also, screaming properly is a lot harder than anything you’re able to do.
Wow.. Came here from a "No headbanging challenge" video. Discovered this pure yet underrated masterpiece.
The circle pit for this song when I saw them live was the perfect way to describe violence, they wrecked the crowd in a good way
Really diggin' this track!
WHY HAVEN'T I LISTENED TO THESE PEOPLE EARLIER IN MY LIFE
THEY ARE GODS
lol I dunno, I've been listening to them at least since 2009.
Hey It's Lily maybe because they didnt do clean vocals before this new vocalist. i like old and new VoM tho
HE SOUNDS LIKE A DEMON
anime boy that's kinda the point
lmao their older stuff is way better. guess you like mediocrity
I love that there is only one vocalist. I have seen bands where they have one doing cleans and one doing gutterals. This just shows the talent of this voclaist to have such a wide range and to be able to hit the notes perfectly.
Holy Danny Hauser! Love those low-end runs, arpeggios, and the echoing of Marc!
RIP Veil of Maya, hello Periphery 2
is that a bad thing
mcaso123alt I dig it
mcaso123alt never
Still not bad, at least they re not as whiney as spencer's cleans
This is way better than Periphery
Mikasa from Attack on Titan?
my thoughts exactly lol
Mikasa is actually a pretty common name in Japan as well as in many other anime.
TidusIsAlive Official il kid
Mi casa es tu casa.
The lyrics suggest to me it may be an AoT reference too if I'm honest. "We survive in wretched times" and "I shall prepare myself to face a monster only I may conquer" sound like they kinda fit with the real world and the AoT world so it's very hard to say
Is anyone still listening in 2020, December 30th?
yes i am actually
Happy new year
nah I'm here now though
!! been a while !!
i will always remember this song as the song which got me into metal.
Love those cleans!!
The cleans caught me off guard, they weren't at all what I expected, but they quickly grew on me! I'm loving the new direction Veil is headed in. Glad to see Marc writing badass riffs again too!
Also 0:44
*I WANT MORE OF THIS STUFFFFF. HOLY CRAAAAP*
I'm sorry but this song is incredibly underrated, the riff and vocals are absolutely amazing..
Underrated...?
It has 10 million views....
@@trevorwhatever2050 Mhm, as if it was a lot for a 7 years old music. Underrated since if i ask 10.000 people if they know about it, none, or a few would know.
Damn your circle is totally different from mine then lol. This is like one of if not their best known song, and Veil of Maya is a pretty damn popular band.
Apology accepted
I dig the drum power trip at 2:50.....and the whole song is just amazing!
Daniel Tremblay Yes, this part is insane, that's so cool
Daniel Tremblay Fuck, i love that subtle shit.
Almost hijacks the ending of the track. Lol
Clean vocals. In VoM song. End has come.
Lol
I feel bad for all those people with V tattoos
Totally agree with you man,those cleans are horrible 😥👎
Daniel Neroese But they still got dem breakdowns
Screaming gets monotonous.
That chorus 😭❤️
its hella catchy and soulful
Blew my mind just now realizing this is 7 years old.
2:23 is transcendental. Holy shit this dude has some killer set of pipes. I'd like to hear a side project with nothing but clean vocals.
If you people don't like the clean vocals just because its not "manly", then you guys have ego problems. This song has great musicianship and it's badass
it's not about 'manly' or not, at this point, for me at least, it's now a matter of EVER fucking band that sounds like this adding cleans. the lack of cleans in their catalog made them stand apart from the rest, now they are like the others. musically this song kills but, the clean vocals are not needed
Maybe not every song will have cleans on it, kinda like what chelsea grin did, their new album didnt have cleans on every song haha
Clean vocals can be done in a style that sounds mature like Jesse from KSE or something. I just dislike bands that use the post-hardcore whiny scene band style of cleans as if they got kicked in the nuts.
Its cheesy and poppy and whiny its ok but this sounds like every other pop band
Dystopia1980 couldn't have said it better... everyone says fuck u guys I like the singing parts... its not clean singing, its a metal guy throwing in the fucking "pop" genre into the middle of a good metal song goddammit! lmao fuckin a... I dont know why VOM fuck with us like this... like hey you could have something incredibly unique and amazing, but let me pause and play you some pop music, shall I
One of the best songs I've ever heard.
Periphery vibe , like Spencer soleto and Mish Mansoor in the production and vocal
1:07 BLEEEEEEEEEEGH SANTA CLAAAAAAAAAAUS
Built from the ground.
69 likes.... nice
@@namespace8915 ur a wet blanket
This BARELY sounds like Periphery. Idk what you guys are smoking but I want some if you think they're trying to knock off Periphery
I have no idea why people think this sounds like periphery either. People are just trying to shit on periphery and whine about Spencers voice
Darin Black I swear, if a Periphery member is even slightly involved with any part of a song, everyone goes batshit calling the song/band a rip-off of Periphery. I bet people only say that because they know Spencer produced the vocals
The instrumentals really don't sound a lot like Periphery at all, Periphery is way more technical. This isn't bad at all, in fact it's pretty good but I definitely prefer Periphery.
Listen to the clears and then listen to Spencer Sotello. Definitely some similarities.
Spencer was a part of the writing process. But no, this does not sound like periphery.
Dude, this is awesome. The mix of cleans and screams is nice, some dual recording of screams and cleans together would be sick, even if it can't be accomplished live.
EREEENN!!
Lol. If Periphery was this heavy, I'd probably listen to them more.
Roran109 Then you should probably listen to some more Periphery cuz they have some of the heaviest prog shit I've ever heard. I love both bands for different reasons, but you can't even pretend that this is even close to as heavy as songs like MK Ultra or Zyglrox.
Roran109 They are sometimes.
Roran109 They are heavy as fuck in their own way and i think you're truly missing out on something great if you don't let them grown onto you :)
Listen to the first half of Omega and Hell Below man they might change your mind.
Roran109 Some songs are, some aren't.
I'd kill to have Marc's picking hand, 1:59-2:25 is fucking ridiculous. These dudes are one of the tightest/cleanest bands out there.
For reals, I was just about to comment the same thing haha
Jake Stephen I bet he can beat off so hard
Yeah, the pinched harm here is killer.
Seriously addicted to this song lately. Love the new sound!
What a legendary song
im liking this new periphery song
:3
yeah
+Fonz Carr same.. i
They just got done touring with periphery. And I love periphery as well. My favorite band of all time.
Lmao Periphery, love that shit.
The same style :))
0:00 - 3:13 gotta be my favorite part!
Those clean vocals gave me multiple eargasms...multiple times.
a nice variety of highs and lows. I dig it!
One of the greatest choruses ever conceived by man.
+Brian Schurr Haha, i said more or less the same thing when i met Lucas. He said they gave him the instrumental track of this song and because of his awesome version they chose him.
+Kwinten Van Kersavond that's an awesome fact
Yeah they have many good choruses. Really love how it goes from the most beautiful chorus to some really sick heavy riffing and djenting hahaha
Finally decided to listen to Veil Of Maya, really glad I picked this song its amazing!
A few years have passed and im jammin and still singing along like it was released yesterday!
Mannnn Sam’s blast beats are so flawless, So amazing to see it
This song kind of just grows on you.
I've never been into themes guys but the new vocals has sold me on this band.
i didn't understand this written in the sand stuff until like a year or two ago when the anime finally caught up far enough to the manga to explain the coordinate realm
Aaaand let's listen to it again!
bro. I'm not sure I've ever heard such a complete package in one vocalist. amazing mid/ clean range that sounds flawless, then mind blowing high to low screams...holy shit.
I honestly don't see how anyone cannot like this. It has riffs that could be from any of the 3 albums and the cleans are good as well.
Saw them live at swanfest last year. They had the main stage with a huge audio booth center of the crowd. They had a massive ring running around the entire center stage area during this song. Easily 2000+ people running around. Soooo much fun
After years of leaving Veil of Maya behind. Came across this 🙏 I’m in Awe!!!
2:10 the best breakdown ever!!!!!!!
That low to the high scream... beautiful
This song never ceases to give me goosebumps.
i love this song so much...
didnt notice i've watched it 8 million times by now
Coming back to this after watching the aot finale
Those clean vocals are definitely Spencer from Periphery.
***** actually it is. He produced them on the album.
Thought the same, wouldn't be surprised if Misha composed the chorus, sounds like new Elitist
Correction: Those vocals are a cheap imitation of Sponce.
Riktenkay Spencer made the vocal production
He sounds nothing like spencer lol
SAM APPLEBAUM!! you're drumming my eardrums :D
One of my favourite songs of this Super MetalCore band! 🤘 This band is one of the best ever MetalCore bands!! Respect❤️🤘
2 years and I still cant get over how fing amazing this song is.
I talked so much shit on Vom's new album, now I like it. Smfh
Karma.
Same
+Zack Scruggs Same here. Did nothing but complain and now the CD is in my car getting played frequently.
you're not alone, bruv.
I did that too, a week later I was in love. Lucas is a big game changer and the band has serious originality still, Just came on here to listen and even the old fans are still digging the new sound, first time ive seen positive reviews on a song in awhile besides Oceano's new stuff. to say the least he sounds JUST LIKE THIS live @ 10 years Sumerian tour ... they killed it. needless to say I am here waiting for another album!
I definitely haven't kept a song on repeat as long and as often as this song
Thats right Diddo
Simply Badass
I can't believe this song is 9 years old already.
Everone's bashing the clean vocals and here I am, trying to figure out if they are reffering to Attack on Titan with the name "Mikasa" :P
YES they are. "Yes nerds. I like Attack on Titan. You will really freak out when you see the rest of the song titles"- Marc Okubo's tweet
Kakeru Ken #VOMANIMETRASH2K15
***** Attack on Titan sucks.....
Kakeru Ken I wasn't sure if they were actually referring to AoT or not. But i'm glad i found out they were! Haha i can't wait to see the other titles.
VisionsofPremonition That's your opinion :P
Absolute perfection!!!Please keep going in this direction and writing this brilliance!!
Cool track. Loving it
The clean vocals add a much needed balance to their style. They got a new listener in me.
