about

The last long song on the album, Rehabilitate, this is one I'm extremely proud of from a songwriting perspective. The drumming, riffs, and leads all coming together on this song are just plain awesome, and I'm grateful the ideas came to me in the way that they did. This song's message takes the concepts from Redemption and hones in on them, but puts more emphasis on the rebuilding of my friendships with my high school group. The winding road that led to being at peace in my heart with our group's relationship again was one I was terrified to take, especially because of my past haunting me, afraid that the person I used to be would be at the forefront of people's minds, but it was ultimately the best choice I could've made. The resulting confidence and strength from these endeavors' success gave me motivation to move forward with life and start fixing the rest of the things I was putting off or afraid to confront.

lyrics

Reparations for my past
And make amends with those I've wronged
Rekindle the flames from ash
Between us once again

Haunted by the ghost I was
My demons encapsulate me
Journeying to peace at last
So my heart may rest

Reflecting in the mirror
I refuse to be pinned down
Taking the road less traveled
I will conquer all

Determined and unwavering
I will be born again
The burden is mine alone
Change must come from within

The heart and mind are ruled by none
You alone control your fate
Your destiny is in your hands
Go forth, rise up, and free your soul

One of the best black metal albums ever made. "Ethereal" is funnily enough the perfect word for it. Soak in its atmosphere and behold its beauty. Ziri
