Love how JB's opening riff was in a minor key. Then after the breakdown, BREAK FREE!!! He changed it to major. The ultimate happy ending. This band is so amazingly talented.

Extremely underrated song, probably my favorite from the band

This song saved my life. I was at an all time low before I started really listening to this song. I didn't take the easy way out. I broke free.

Even though you wrote this 9 years ago, I am here to say I hope you got through your struggle. I am going through a struggle right now and Jesus is my way out and this song has such a Godly interpretation to me. BREAK FREEE!

@@tdk3713 Still a big song, but glad it doesn't apply like it did 9 years ago! Appreciate it man, and life is full of highs and lows, keep the faith and look inward as that helped me. Also this band released Spirit Breaker an album later which got me through another stage later on. You've got this!

@@tuckin4u hope your still doing good man. I don't believe in faith or God or anything but be proud of yourself too man and give yourself credit. YOU are the one who changed for yourself. No one did it for you👊 stay strong. Life is hard sometimes

what i like the most about the lyrics is that they dont have to be interpreted religiously. they can be interpreted about love, life struggles, or many other things, depending on the listener. im atheist and i love these guys and As I Lay Dying for being bands that can write such versatile lyrics. not to mention they are both metalcore masters

This song hits different at 3am when you are all by yourself.

This song seriously has so much meaning to it...literally brought me to tears the first time I heard it. Thank you to all of ABR for being there for me since day 1.

i think the best part about this song is EVERYONE can relate to this

I find this to be one of their or most underrated album :/

Agreed. This track along with Empire and Carpe Diem are some of favorite ABR has every came out with.

9 years later and I still come back for that opening riff. Such a good song.

Those song is easily the most beautiful thing in the entire existence of everything.

HIGHLY underrated song

Your life is beautiful & meaningful even without that experience! Remember you will always have 1 person who loves you & that's the 1 that matters the most (The Lord Christ)

Only ABR can perfect a breakdown in 7/8 time. EPIC. They've also have 5/4 (internal cannon) and I think 15/4 (boys of fall) on this record. NUTS!

Passing here just to remind about this band...

This song was so amazingly crafted. Same riff opening in a minor key, ending the song in a major key after "breaking free". Jake's closure which could have been suicide, yet he cried out to Christ and was renewed. Simply brilliant. I love this band so freaking much.

wow im looking at this like 10 years later and they made an anniversary! wow respect

In life you either choose to do the Right thing or the wrong thing it's like having an angel or devil on your shoulder

I started playing guitar 5 years ago.......and ABR has inspired me to improvise alot better than any other band. The lyrics are like reading my own mind. ABR, keep jammin, never stop, and keep that faith strong just as i do. God Bless.

LIFE IS A GIFT. Epic.

Still my fav band after all these years later esp this song. "No one knows the weight on your shoulders no one knows the burdens your bare!"

Amazing breakdown. BREAK FREEEEEEEEEEE!

Man, almost all of August Burns Red's music is very inspirational! That's why they're my favorite hardcore band. If I ever get mad or worked up, I can just listen to some ABR, and it calms me down. Who says that you can't have a strong, positive message in metal music?

Lord Jesus please let me help everyone down hear during thies hard times

Life is a gift, everybody should know, that's the truth

Jake: "Break Freeeeeeee!" Me, screaming back: "Okaaaaaaayyyyy!!!!"

I cried when ABR played this live on 10/4/12. He was looking at me from time to time, I was at the rear front. He acknowledged my existence when I felt no one else did. A few songs after that he reached his hand out and touched my fingers. It was an unforgettable experience. I will never decide to end my life because of that! I love ABR!

Exactly what I'm going through right now! I love ABR! Such great music and their message is always important. This song has given me a lot of hope

The intro instantly reminds me of Miss May I. ABR is far better though.

Easily my favorite song on Leveler album

If just one person found as much inspiration from this song as I did, I'd be a happy man. That was quite possibly the greatest thing i've heard.

This is such an amazing song! It has such a great meaning!

I seriously get so emotional reading the stories and comments people have cuz it's the same way I feel and the reason I love music so fucking much. Its such an amazing new experience every time, getting away from everything for a few mins and getting lost in the music. Its fucking amazing!!

This song is perfect. Lyrics could not be more relevant.

I tell you nothing is better then positive metalcore. Whenever I feel like life is a lost cause I put ABR on and it makes me smile and, puts life into perspective. Thanks for all that you do ABR and I hope you stay together forever.

Listening from my new iPhone!!!! Makes this awesome phone 10,000x better!!!!!

Still watching in 2021 🤘

This could be the greatest song ever written, the riff after the breakdown makes me wanna cry because its so godly.

the best gospel metal band ever ... with meaningful lyrics nd killer music !!!!!

The key change was done perfectly at the end. 🎶

made my hair on my arms go up thats how good this song is

Rock solid from the outside looking in. One of the best breakdowns ever.

LIFE....ISSSS..AAAA..GIFTTTT....REMEMBER THISSSS!!! Man I LOVE this band.

The beginning of this song, the end of "Boys Of Fall" and the breakdown of "Poor Millionaire" = the three best parts of this album.

That key change at the end though!

I'm still mesmerized as to how JB plays that intro and outro live without a single note missed... If anybody has seen the tab and learned it, you know that is DAMN hard, let alone on-stage, tired, and sweaty.. WTAF

very uplifting song. raised my spirits the other day. real talk.

I love this song

SO true man this song means alot to me and i love ABR man so i couldnt agree more

The best album of these guys.

1st time hearing this song, and i love it!

the last breakdown is THE sickest thing i've ever heard in my LIFE

Damn this song really tugs on my emotional cords

1:43 - calm 1:54 - "No one knows the weight on your shoulders..." 2:05 - 'These thoughts wont stop" - the music is heavy and dark ( I am sure this part is about suicide) 2:17 - I get frisson at this part and the high notes ringing at the end make my hair stand up on my neck and arms 2:28 - 'it be so easy to take the easy way out' - the suicidal thoughts again

NOW, IS THE TIME!... TOO BELIEVE!!! MORE THAN EVER!.!.!.

The chords in this song. ❤

powerful song for sure

This song speaks to me. This is how my life is going sorry of. Everyone passing me by, no time for me.

this is absolutly the best song of the whole album! fu*king love it

compassion is a beautiful thing so show some for yourself!!! rock solid from the outside looking in. its hard to be surrounded by the ones that you love when they keep passing you by.

so good 10/10 i love August burns red

Thanks dude. That is awesome!

Thank you.

I am so ''Air-Drumming'' each second of this song every time I ear it!

Seriously, its so addicting!

This song speaks the truth?!

Jest that intro riff just kills my heart with joy :D

August Burns Red knows me so well:)

Amazing

If you have headphones where you can hear the bass really well, the bass shudder at the first 'break free' is killer.

perfect!!!

My favorite guitar solo \m/

I love Dustin highs they ser so brutal!!.

remember that!!

this song and composure seriously saved me from suicide. ABR forever

@TitleTrack12 thank you for putting down something I know for my whole life!

When I first got this album, I only liked this and carpe diem, but after fully exploring this, this band is awesome! Can't wait to get sleddin' hill on christmas :)

favorite band ever...so uplifting, so hardcore, and the best part, Christian :) -represent-

"life is a gift"

ABR, thanks!

they're best song for drums

This shit helped me get through Afghanistan....

I just had goose bumps from the lyics that was exactly what I needed to hear abr never fails and I praise God for that!

I think this could be one of their best breakdowns

4:03. BREAK FREEEEEEEE. Love that afterbass.

Tonight shit's going to get down. August Burns Red, The Devil Wears Prada and Veil of Maya. Awesome!

This song fn speaks to me..

August Burns Red invented the genre "HopeCore" back with Composure and keeps improving it!

Leveler is on a different level ;) \m/

essa musica parece que nunca vai acabar

Siiiiilaaaaaaaaannnceeee Isss a frustrating answer when all you wanted is a signn!!! *Head bannngg*
