In my opinion, this is one of the greatest songs ever made. I tried to find a good video that include the lyrics on the screen and this fan video was the best I could find.
The song is "Born" by Nevermore. Yesterday was the 16 year anniversary of the release date of this musical masterpiece and the profundity of the lyrics rings more true than ever.
The wisdom of the late Warrel Dane is haunting. From beyond the grave, Warrel is warning us of our current plight.
It seems that only the masterful guitar work of Jeff Loomis is befit for such a masterful lyricist and singer who boasts a range greater than 5 octaves (G#1 - B♭5).
It seems that like many geniuses, Warrel was haunted by his brilliance. He struggled with alcoholism and diabetes which led to his untimely death in 2017.
I hope that you will take a few minutes of your life to really take in this song, its message, and its technical genius.
Artists are screaming at the world to pay attention, but the world keeps spinning oblivious to its own destruction. Take a few minutes and really let this soak in.
