Continuing the previous cool song, Fake My Own Death, Sum 41 have released a new song titled “WAR”

sum 41 war

It’s not bad. It will eventually grow on me like all the other songs that I didn’t like at first. I am pretty pumped for the full album though. It’s nice to see them coming out with Music Videos again.

Song lyrics Sum 41 – War

So what am I fighting for
Everything back and more
And I’m not gonna let this go
I’m ready to settle the score
Get ready cause this is war.

There are days that I think I’m crazy
Other days nothing seems to faze me.
There’s nothing more and nothing less just
All the fears that I must confess well
I’m afraid I believe in nothing.

No hopes or dreams you could’ve left me dead.
Naive and not to mention
I’m losing count of all my blessings.

With all that I’ve done, it’s too late
I can’t take back all that I have become.

So all that I’m trying to say
I’m looking for a better way
Some days it just gets so hard
And I don’t wanna slip away.

So what am I fighting for?
Everything back and more
And I’m not gonna let this go
I’m ready to settle the score
Get ready cause this is war.

Another day in the right direction
I’m ok but I’m left to question
How did I get so far behind the rest?
Why am I so inclined to forget?
All the days that you made me crazy
Nowadays you don’t even faze me
It’s all the same and I don’t stress none
Sick and tired of all this tension

With all that I’ve done, it’s too late I can’t take
Back all that I have become

So all that I’m trying to say
I’m looking for a better way
Some days it just gets so hard
And I don’t wanna slip away.

So what am I fighting for?
Everything back and more
And I’m not gonna let this go
I’m ready to settle the score
Get ready cause this is war.
I’m looking for a better way
Somedays it just gets so hard
And I don’t wanna slip away
Get ready cause this is war.

Everything back and more
And I’m not gonna let this go
I’m ready to settle the score
Get ready cause this is war.

It means alot for Canadian-punk-rock vocalist Deryck Whibley. It was set to be official first single from Sum 41 new album “13 Voices”, release date: October 7, 2016.

“so we have officially picked the first single now. this song is called “war”. i picked this song because of it’s importance to me. i feel this song literally saved my life. i was at my absolute lowest point of what seemed like a never ending recovery. i was at a tipping point where i could have easily just given up and went back to my old ways of alcohol abuse which would’ve ended up killing me, which at the time felt like a better option. when all of a sudden, in mid thought, these lyrics sort of appeared in my head and i grabbed a pencil and paper instead of a bottle and started writing. when i read it back to myself i realized i had written words that i would need to live up to if i wanted to survive. whenever i had any thoughts of giving up i would read these lyrics myself to remind me that i need to keep fighting harder and what it was exactly i was fighting for.”
