Paradise 03:20
These are the best days of my life. These are my days in the sun. I’ve found my paradise. I’ve found my paradise. Life with you, has never felt so true. I’ve never felt so right, in all my life. These are the best days of my life. These are my days in the sun. I’ve found my paradise. I’ve found my paradise. You are my anchor, but this is my home. This is where I belong. You’re my anchor, but this is my home. This is where I belong. You’re my anchor, but this is my home. You’re my anchor.

Jeremiah 05:01
(PRAISE, PRAISE) I am the weapon of God. (PRAISE, PRAISE) I am untouchable. (PRAISE, PRAISE) I am the weapon of God. (PRAISE, PRAISE) I am untouchable. (PRAISE, PRAISE) We are the weapons of God. (PRAISE, PRAISE) We are untouchable. If I say I never mention the Lord, or speak in His name. His word burns like a fire, like a fire in my bones. There’s a fire in my bones, there’s a fire in my soul. If I say I never mention the Lord, or speak in His name. There’s a fire in my soul. Let your cross tear me apart. Let Your cross tear me apart, tear me to the ground. Create in me a new man to be, tear me to the ground. Let Your cross tear me apart, tear me to the ground. Holy Spirit rain down, let the chains fall to the ground. (Speaking; Psalm 46) “God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging. There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy place where the Most High dwells.”

I’m at a loss for words here. If you could have held on for one more day, to hear the words that we had to say, maybe you wouldn’t had to have disappeared. I climbed the stairs up to your room. It was full of your things but still felt empty. But I guess you knew that. Brother, you were never alone. I’m so sorry, so sorry you didn’t know that. You were never alone. I should have been the one to pick up the phone. Now I’m stuck here with “what if’s” and “I should have known’s.” There never should have been poison in your veins. I should have been a better brother to ease your pain. There never should have been poison in your veins. I should have been a better brother. I’m called to be the light, but I left you in the dark. I’m worse than a dog with no bite and all bark. Brother, I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry.

Vanity 04:15
I am no longer alive. I am dead to this world. I am no longer living. I am a dead man walking. I’ve turned my back on this ignorance. You won’t see me consumed by this. I’ve turned my back on this bigotry. This isn’t how it’s supposed to be. This is what I’ve become, a free mind against a chained world. This is what I’ve become, I found myself in the son of a virgin girl. Free from hate and free from ignorance, we will all fall into sky. His glory will rip open a new light. Let the scales fall from your eyes. Together we can be the change. Together we can be the difference. Together we are family. Apart we are just suffering. Together we can be the change. Together we can make a difference. Together we are family. Apart we are just suffering. I am no Longer alive. I am dead to this world. I am no longer living. I am a dead man walking. I don’t want your fame and fortune. I just want to make a change. But it’s so hard to be different, when everyone’s the same.

Free 03:24
I have found myself in this place before. Not broken, but not whole, still feeling alone. God this is a cycle that I cannot break, I need Your spirit to give me strength. Reveal yourself to me so that I can be something more than a man on his knees. These chains have rubbed my wrist raw, this fire’s gone and my heart won’t thaw. Take this stone inside my chest. Ignite Your cause and give me no rest. No place to lay my head. No stability. No stability. A life for you is a life set free. God set me free. Set me free. Hear my cry. Hear my tears. I long to be with you and have no fears. Where can I find, some peace of mind? I have found myself in this place before, a throne of Glory, stands before me. Not broken, not alone, finally whole. God this is the place, I long to embrace. Your spirit fills my veins. I see Your face. I am home and this is grace. I fall to my face and tears fill my eyes. You forgive the old me and give me a new being. God I am free. You are king. Jesus, you are King. Forever and ever and ever. I am free. Brother, breathe in your redemption. Brother, taste His salvation. Brother, angels will sing you in. Brother, we will see you again. You are free. You are free. You are free. Forever and ever and ever. You are free, you are free, you are free.

about

This EP is dedicated to Joshua D. Parvin who passed away February 13, 2014 from an accidental drug overdose at the age of 25. You were a son, a brother, an uncle, and a friend. Not a day goes by that we don’t miss your smile and eagerly await the day to hug your neck once again. We love you, Josh.

If you or someone you know is struggling with an addiction, reach out to someone. Some secrets are not meant to be kept. There is nothing that you could ever do that can separate you from the love of Jesus Christ (Romans 8:31-39). You are not alone (Psalm 34:18; 2 Corinthians 1:3-4) and you are worth more than you will ever know (John 3:16).

We love Jesus, and our dream is to see revival, not only in the hardcore/metal scene, but in the heart of a generation that the world has turned its back on. We love you. God loves you. If you need prayer or just need someone to talk to, message us on Facebook.
