VICTORY IN JESUS....
Death Of Satan -- By Daniel Johnston
Dropped into a satanic church one day,
My machine gun blazing, I blasted them all away
Die, die, Satan, I think your time has come
Die, die, Satan, I think you're kind of dumb
Oh, victory... in Jesus
My saviour, forever
Oh, victory... in Jesus
My saviour, forever
Die, die, Satan, I think you're gonna die
Walked right up with a machine gun in my hand,
Blasted him away, a roar in the desert sand
Die, die, Satan, I think you're gonna die
Die, die, Satan, I think you're kind of dumb
Oh, victory... in Jesus
My saviour, forever
Oh, victory... in Jesus
My saviour, forever
Die, die, Satan, I think you're gonna die
Threw a grenade right down his ugly face
Watched it explode and save the human race
Die, die, Satan, your time has finally come
Die, die, Satan, I think you're kind of dumb
Oh, victory... in Jesus
My saviour, forever
Oh, victory... in Jesus
My saviour, forever
Die, die, Satan, I think you're gonna die

"Hurray for a child
That makes it through
If there's any way
Because the answer lies in you
They're laid to rest
Before they've known just what to do
Their souls are lost
Because they could never find
What's this life for?
I see your soul, it's kind of gray
You see my heart, you look away
You see my wrist, I know your pain
I know your purpose on your plane
Don't say a last prayer
Because you could never find
What's this life for?"
-Scott Stapp of Creed
Creed is one of the most misunderstood rock bands of all time. Critics have described them as "taking the tackiest elements of grunge and then pumping it full of steroids and human growth hormones". Well what's wrong with that? What their detractors are missing is the deep existential crises revealed in the songs of Creed. The themes of endless despair, reckoning with God, and emerging triumphant through it all. It's all about the struggles and trials of life and how we are ultimately united on this difficult path. It's about singing with the voice of a superhuman monster - the only voice that can maybe reach the ears of our cruel God. If we can shoot lightning back His way then maybe He will take notice of our suffering. Chillwave music will never accomplish goals of this nature. God does not take Chillwave music seriously but He surely follows Creed for they are the musical choice of so many believers. True believers. The spiritual warriors of this world. There have been theories that bands like "Washed Out" psychically pre-empted the recent tsunami disaster. This was God's punishment. Creed has music videos depicting the survival of mass floods - they see the future and envision the durability of human existence in the face of extinction. We must fight God in order to survive. The human race must unite in order to overcome the challenges He will throw our way. Creed is the soundtrack to our survival - seriously "the end is near" has never been more true. 2012 is our next door neighbor. Are you ready? Are you ready? For what's to come.
