Overcome lyrics
Ok well i cant listen to a song unless I can sing along to it so for the past hour or so I have been trying to dissect the the words to the song and this is what I have so far. If a word is underlined I am taking a guess at the lyrics, some of which I just cant decipher. Well here is what I got. Any suggestions?
Your a victim to me Every thing we are and used to be Is buried and gone Now its my turn speak Its my turn Its my turn to expose and release whats been killing me I'll be there fighting you your impossible impossible Say goodbye with no sympathy I've been entitled to overcome This war has made me numb Knock me down throw me to the floor There's no pain I can't feel no more I've been entitled to overcome Finally see whats me Everything I am and hope to be can not be lost I'll be there fighting you your impossible impossible Say goodbye with no sympathy I've been entitled to overcome this war has made me numb There's no pain I can't feel no more I've been entitled to overcome Yes __________________________________ Take a step take a breath to the darkness __________________________________ I may be greedy____________________ I'm entitled to overcome this war has made me talk Knock me down throw me to the floor There's no pain I can't feel no more I'm entitled to overcome I'm entitled to overcome I'm entitled to overcome I'm entitled I'm entitled to overcome yes Overcome I may be a christen but never a little mackerel Updated with Dark Knights interpretation, suggestions from other users and more times to listening to the footage. Still need to figure out what Stapp is saying in the second half of the song. Last edited by nthor : 08-11-2009 at 10:24 PM. |

Re: Overcome lyrics
This is what I have so far...
Verse 1: "You're a victim to me, everything we are and used to be" ??? "It's my turn to expose and release what's been killing me" "I'll be there fighting you, you're impossible, impossible" "Sitting by, with no sympathy..." Chorus: "I'm entitled to Overcome, This war has made me numb, Knock me down throw me to the floor, there's no pain I can feel no more, I'm entitled to Overcome." Verse 2 ??? "Everything I am & hope to be cannot be lost, " "I'll be there fighting you, you're impossible, impossible" "Sitting by, with no sympathy..." Chorus: "I'm entitled to Overcome, This war has made me numb, Knock me down throw me to the floor, there's no pain I can feel no more, I'm entitled to Overcome."

Re: Overcome lyrics
I think your lyrics are closer than mine. After listening to the song with your lyrics they flow better. What copy of the song are you using???

Re: Overcome lyrics
You can hear the lyrics more clearly in the bootleg that's been floating around the boards...here's a download link if you don't happen to have it. (I'm pretty sure the chorus lyrics are all correct, I'm just not 100% sure about the verses)

Re: Overcome lyrics
Anyone notice that stapp's lyric writing is infinitely better with tremonti then it was when he was solo?
It's sad stapp's voice is in the condition it is in, the two of them really shine as songwriters when they write together. At least lyrically. |

Re: Overcome lyrics
...yes, we know together they are better. That's why creed cd's sell better than alter bridge and stapps. Stapps vocal condition? Its fine. Have you seen previous creed live performances? or even when he was performing solo, his voice is about the same. Stapp has never been the best live performer(vocally). He always sounds better on the album. He's a rock singer, he's jumping around and screaming over the band. Of course he's not going to sound like he does on a album when he's doing all that.

Re: Overcome lyrics
Are you talking about the title of the song? It's Overcome, Scott confirmed it in an interview before the first concert.

Re: Overcome lyrics
I think I've figured out the bridge...I could be wrong though. (also there's a different line at the end of the last chorus, I still can't make it out though)...
You're a victim to me, everything we are and used to be is buried & gone Now it's my turn to speak, it's my turn to expose & release what's been killing me I'll be there fighting you, you're impossible, impossible Sitting by with no sympathy I'm entitled to Overcome, this war has made me numb Knock me down throw me to the floor, there's no pain I can feel no more I'm entitled to Overcome, Yes Overcome I finally see what's beneath, everything I am & hope to be cannot be lost I'll be there fighting you, you're impossible, impossible Sitting by with no sympathy I'm entitled to Overcome, this war has made me numb Knock me down throw me to the floor, there's no pain I can feel no more I'm entitled to Overcome, Yes Overcome You may not know what I was thinking before you came around Take a breath, take a step, put your guard down I may not know it anymore, what you think of me I may be crazy but I'm buried in your memory I'm entitled to Overcome, this war has made me numb Knock me down throw me to the floor, there's no pain I can feel no more I'm entitled to Overcome, ???? I'm entitled to Overcome, I'm entitled to Overcome, Yes Overcome Here's the best quality version yet from Hershey... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CqXhlHcgfAE Last edited by Dark_Knight : 08-12-2009 at 02:16 AM. |

Re: Overcome lyrics
Dark knight I think you go them down pat. The newest clip from Hershey is great and you can really hear what Stapp is saying especially in the "rapping" portion at the end of the song
