Know Thyself is a metalcore testament to the battlefield of the human soul—a raw, unflinching journey through doubt, redemption, spiritual warfare, and the relentless pursuit of Christ’s truth. Each song confronts the fractures within the human heart: the mistakes that haunt us, the temptations that stalk our every step, and the yearning to find purpose beyond the world’s hollow promises.

Across this collection, the lyrics explore what it means to be broken yet beloved, imperfect yet called, tempted yet strengthened by the living God who never abandons His children. From reflections on the crucifixion witnessed by the hosts of heaven, to personal confessions of regret, to the triumphant declarations of grace that breaks every barrier, the album speaks to the universal struggle of aligning one’s life with the will of Christ.

The music blends late-00s ferocity with melodic urgency—massive choruses, gut-punching breakdowns, and acoustic passages that breathe humility into the heaviness. Every track is a step deeper into the realization that true identity is not found in the world, its desires, or its lies, but in the unshakeable love of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

Know Thyself isn’t just an album title—it’s the challenge at the core of the Christian walk: to confront the truth of who we are, to face the sin that tries to claim us, and to rise in the strength and mercy of the Savior who paid the ultimate price for our redemption. This is an album for the searching, the struggling, the repentant, and the redeemed—an offering of praise forged in honesty, conviction, and unbreakable faith.

Cut me open, watch the light spill out
Still got a pulse, still got a mouth
I ate the dirt, I swallowed the doubt
I came back louder, spitting it out
They wrote me off like a bad tattoo
Now I’m permanent, bitch, how do you do?
I turned their knife into a crown
Wear it tilted when I burn this down

Every bruise is a drum hit
Every scar is a light stick
If I’m still bleeding
Then the song ain’t finished
I’m alive and it fucking hurts
But the pain sounds better in reverse
Turn the hurt up, let the bassline burn
If I’m breathing then the world still turns

I’ve stared down barrels, swallowed pills
Still woke up swinging at the same old hills
They said “stay quiet, play it safe”
I lit the fuse and walked away
Built a throne from the teeth I lost
Every crack in me has paid the cost
I don’t need saving, I need the noise
Turn my wreckage into your war-cry voice

Not done!
Kick the chair, cut the rope
I still float

Every bruise is a drum hit
Every scar is a light stick
If I’m still bleeding
Then the song ain’t finished
I’m alive and it fucking hurts
But the pain sounds better in reverse
Turn the hurt up, let the bassline burn
If I’m breathing then the world still turns
