A little change of pace, neo-soul relaxing music. (for some).

Today March 29th 2023 is National Vietnam War Veterans Day. It was 50 years ago the last of the U.S. troops left Vietnam.

2006/2007ish. I heard this song being played in some setting. Can't remember where.
I thought it was Rage Against the Machine. It had all that style of energy and angst. After searching for a long ass time, I found out it was a Christian Nu-Metal Band called Disciple.
I'd never heard of them and haven't heard much of them since, but this song got my attention. It's got that "energy".
It even kind of relates to the world today in some ways.
There's nothing to look at in the vid, so here's the lyrics below. Just hit Play, and follow along. CrAnK iT !!!
See what I highlighted. Fairly powerful stuff. Good for getting that last rep out at the Gym......



Lyrics
When the lights go up and the game is on
Are you ready for me 'cause I'm ready for you?
When the bell rings out and the fight is on
Are you ready for me 'cause I'm ready for you?
When the lights go up and the game is on
Are you ready for me 'cause I'm ready for you?
When the bell rings out and the fight is on
Are you ready for me 'cause I'm ready for you?
It's time for us to start throwing down
Take a look and see who's standing now
It's time for us to start throwing down
Look and see who's standing now
Didn't even know that you and I were cross
Until a sneak attack from the weak side
Unaware that we were in a fight
I guess that's part of the problem but guess what?
When the lights go up and the game is on
Are you ready for me 'cause I'm ready for you?
When the bell rings out and the fight is on
Are you ready for me 'cause I'm ready for you?
It's time for us to start throwing down
Take a look and see who's standing now
It's time for us to start throwing down
Look and see who's standing now
Say what you wanna say about me
Throw up what you wanna throw up at me
But when you mess with those that are around me
That's when you and I will have a problem
When the lights go up and the game is on
Are you ready for me 'cause I'm ready for you?
When the bell rings out and the fight is on
Are you ready for me 'cause I'm ready for you?
It's time for us to start throwing down
Take a look and see who's standing now
It's time for us to start throwing down
Look and see who's standing now
I'm not afraid of loving my enemies
Turning the other cheek
Blessing those that would curse me
I honestly want peace with you
But when you come against my country
When you come against my family
You try to destroy my people
I can't just stand by
There's no way that I can stand by
This time I will not stand by
I am coming and if I come
Then pain is coming with me
I'm coming and pain will be with me
When the bell rings out and the fight is on
Are you ready for me 'cause I'm ready for you?
It's time for us to start throwing down
Take a look and see who's standing now
It's time for us to start throwing down
Take a look and see who's standing now
Look and see who's standing now
Look and see who's standing now
Look and see who's standing now

I am sad , but I guess it's time. To anyone who's ever been to a KIX show, it's one of the best times you'll ever have. I've seen them countless times.
Super nice guys and very classy. They don't get caught up in all the BS that you see other bands go through. They just consistently put on one great show after another over and over for the past 45 years.

So glad I got to see these home town boys since the early 80's. Always great fun and tons of energy.

Great cover.........

Hey.... I remember that song.
