Everyday is a new day
I'm thankful for every breath I take
I won't take it for granted
So I learn from my mistakes
It's beyond my control, sometimes it's best to let go
Whatever happens in this lifetime
So I trust in love
You have given me peace of mind
Payable
on Death, or simple P.O.D.... A band that was part of my childhood and youth.
That mix between metal with a little bit of rap, what was a trend during the
end of 90s and beginning of 00s, known as Nu/New Metal, where bands like Linkin Park, KoRn, and Limp Bizkit
characterised the genre. P.O.D. is a band that always knew who to reinvent with
the passing of the years without losing its characteristics (there's a new
album coming out there ♥).
There's nothing like being alive. Nothing like being able to breath
(even sometimes having stuffy nose 😝)!!! Every day we have a gift: life.
According to a biological definition of this gift of ours is: "the
sequence of physical and mental experiences that constitute the existence of a
being."
We exist, live,
experience, mess up, cry, rejoice, celebrate… Many emotions and perceptions
that is kind of complicated putting everything to words. They are never the
same reactions even though they've been through the same situations. What we
are up to do is to face what is coming towards us. Accepting what is given us
as challenge and trying to win. It is believing that is possible to not give
up. It is know that there are people who love us and bring us peace of mind. It
is understanding that God takes care of us even if we are disobedient and,
because of that, suffer the consequences, like what happens to a child when
he/she disobeys its parents.
And as the chorus
of the song says: "I feel so alive for the very first time", and may
each day be a new day, like the very first time, idead that is also very clear
in the original videoclip.
