Let them do their worst

Well, I’m about to do something I usually don’t do and I don’t like to do, though I really felt like posting this song here because it really reflects my state of mind. It’s a song by Killswitch Engage and it’s called “This is Absolution”

We will not die this way, in unification
They cannot break these chains of faith, yeah
Let them do their worst (let them do thier worst)
Never slaves to iniquity

We will not die this way (this is absolution)
Death claims us no more (no more)
Do not grieve, end the suffering
We will live, live eternal

Will you take the stand amongst the dead?
Bury your fear, and hold fast to life

We will not die this way (this is absolution)
Death claims us no more (no more)
Do not grieve, end the suffering
We will live, live eternal

Anchor yourself to the foundation of everything you are
Believe you have just begun to live (to live)

Dont let the world deceive you
Dont let their words betray you
Dont let their lies deceive you
Let Them Do Their Worst

We will not die this way (This is absolution)
Death claims us no more (no more)
Do not grieve, end the suffering
We will live, live eternal

Go and give it a listen, because it’s really great. Moreover, the lyrics just reminds me that I am stronger than other people think, and not only I survived every shit I’ve been through in this period (and shit, it was a lot of it), but everything just made me stronger, and the few things that still remains now… well I think I found the strength to get over them once at all, risking everything because there is nothing that can hurt me so much.

So everyone can keep hurting me, destiny can keep being against me, you know what? I don’t care. Because maybe I’m the one who suffered, but I’m the one that still has friends, that still has a pride, even if it seems exactly the opposite, and still goes through every day fighting. You hurted me, you feel better, but you know what? I’ll watch your decay, laughing at you and seeing you stepping through everything I felt. You feel better now, but it’s just a matter of time.

So, destiny: fuck you. And fuck also a pair of persons, yes I’m referring to a pair of persons that are probably reading this. Because there is no fucking way you can beat me down. I don’t want to hurt other people myself, but I know the day you’ll fall and I’ll rise back again is coming. And that day will be Absolution. The difference is, I always tell the truth, so probably that day you’ll suffer a bit more than me.

But well, who cares?

Personal rants, being “Mr. Nice Guy” (cit.) just doesn’t give you what you deserve. And since when I’ve tried to be good towards everyone and everything I just received sufference back, I guess it’s time to trust people less and trust myself and my feelings more. Though these experiences showed me that I’m not the ordinary guy, and most of all, I’m not the kind of guy that just gives up. And shit, I was so scared I could be so. But I am not. You know, ghosts are not always right, and people are not all the same, luckily

  1. you’re great man!
    life is full of awful people, they throw you mud and you see no reason, if you don’t play their game, you’ll show them you’re stronger than them.
    in life is not important how many times you fall, the important thing is that after every fall there’s the will of getting back up and continue your road.
    sorry for my english :P

  2. You’re right man, that’s exactly what I think too. But what does life mean if you’re just like everyone else? Better fight through your way :D let’s keep it up!

  3. i ever say: “if you’re born to fight, fight!”
    and there’s another thing: “only dead fish ever follow the flow” :D

  4. Cool stuff, the last few sentences made me remember of All the Rage:

    I’m sick and I’m tired of always being the good guy
    I’m sick and I’m tired of always being the good guy

    I love that song :)
