Demon Hunter - Not Ready To Die Lyrics






You've got a lot of nerve and I've got a lot of fingers to point
While you were busy building knowledge I was already right
I know a voice like yours is not a weapon at all
Even mine is not a chisel for a thickened skull
Chant your anthems to the deaf
And we can sit here and cry until there's nothing left
Or we can take our voices with our hands
Make like knives and make demands
We'll take our voices - with our hands
We'll make like knives - we'll make demands

I'm burning bridges for the last time
I'm breaking habits for the first time
I saw my future today, it said I'm going away
And I still haven't sung the last line
On my way down

I'm not ready to lay, I'm not ready to fade
I'm not ready to die
I'm not ready to lay, I'm not ready to fade
I'm not ready to die

And everyday of my life I can feel it getting harder to breathe
With every minute ticking by I'm getting ready to leave
I know a life like mine is not a reason to fret
But I've been busy building scars that you will never forget
If only thirty three years can save my life
I've had twenty four more to make things right
So when I'm taken to the sky and you're still here
You can clear your mind and dry your tears
We'll take our voices - with our hands
We'll make like knives - we'll make demands

I'm burning bridges for the last time
I'm breaking habits for the first time
I saw my future today, it said I'm going away
And I still haven't sung the last line
On my way down

I'm not ready to lay, I'm not ready to fade
I'm not ready to die
I'm not ready to lay, I'm not ready to fade
I'm not ready to die

When I'm taken home - and you're still here
Just clear your mind - dry your tears
We'll take our voices - with our hands
We'll make like knives - we'll make demands

I'm not ready to lay, I'm not ready to fade
I'm not ready to die
I'm not ready to lay, I'm not ready to fade
I'm not ready to die
I'm not ready to lay, I'm not ready to fade
I'm not ready to die
I'm not ready to lay, I'm not ready to fade
I'm not ready to die

Not ready to die

  12. g.... ....

    I first saw this song while flipping through channels after school one day. I ended up stopping on a channel to grab something to drink and it was playing some Christian music videos. When I got back to the TV this started up, and I decided to wait until the music kicked in. Needless to say I had my Mr. Paperback order the album fkr me as soon as I finished listening and went into town. Been a huge fan since.

  15. T.... O....

    When I was curled up in the back of my Explorer, detoxing myself off opiates, I had this song on repeat in my CD player. Now, with 6 years clean on July 30th, I was listening to it again. I will always give credit to this song for helping me get through that time.

    T.... O....

    Praise God you are clean and free!

  16. A.... R....

    I some how got my hands into when I was little on the christian rock album and this was on there

    Not Ready To Die
    You've got a lot of nerve and I've got a lot of fingers to point

    Não Pronto Para Morrer
    Você tem muita coragem e eu tenho muitos dedos para apontar
    Enquanto você estava ocupado buscando conhecimento eu já estava certo!
    Sei que uma voz como a sua, não é de todo uma arma
    E a minha não é um cinzel para um crânio engrossado
    Então você pode cantar seus hinos para os surdos
    E podemos sentar aqui e chorar até não houver saída
    Ou podemos pegar nossas vozes com nossas mãos
    Fazer como as facas e fazer pedidos
    Levantaremos nossas vozes, com nossas mãos
    Faremos como as facas, faremos pedidos


    Estou queimando pontes pela última vez
    Estou quebrando hábitos pela primeira vez
    Eu vi meu futuro hoje
    E ele disse que eu estou indo embora
    Mas eu ainda não cantei a última linha
    No meu caminho para baixo


    Não estou pronto pra deitar
    Eu não estou pronto pra desvanecer
    Não estou pronto para morrer
    Não estou pronto pra deitar
    Eu não estou pronto pra desvanecer
    Não estou pronto para morrer


    E todo dia da minha vida eu posso sentir isso ficando difícil de respirar
    A cada minuto que passa, estou me preparando pra sair
    Sei que vidas como a minha n é motivo pra se preocupar
    Mas eu estive ocupado fazendo cicatrizes que você nunca irá esquecer
    Se somente trinta e três anos podem salvar minha vida
    Eu já tive mais vinte e três para fazer as coisas direito
    Então quando eu for levado para os céu, e você ficar aqui
    Você poderá limpar sua mente e enxugar suas lágrimas
    Levantaremos nossas vozes, com nossas mãos
    Faremos como as facas, faremos pedidos


    Estou queimando pontes pela última vez
    Estou quebrando hábitos pela primeira vez
    Eu vi meu futuro hoje
    E ele disse que eu estou indo embora
    Mas eu ainda não cantei a última linha
    No meu caminho para baixo


    Não estou pronto pra deitar
    Eu não estou pronto pra desvanecer
    Não estou pronto para morrer
    Não estou pronto pra deitar
    Eu não estou pronto pra desvanecer
    Não estou pronto para morrer


    Quando eu for levado para o céu
    E você ainda estiver aqui
    Apenas limpe sua mente, seque suas lágrimas
    Levantaremos nossas vozes, com nossas mãos
    Nós faremos como facas, nós faremos pedidos


    Não estou pronto pra deitar
    Eu não estou pronto pra desvanecer
    Não estou pronto para morrer
    Não estou pronto pra deitar
    Eu não estou pronto pra desvanecer
    Não estou pronto para morrer

  23. B.... C....

    Sou o único BR em 2k19?

  24. R.... ....

    Whenever you're feeling down, just remember this part from the song:
    I'm not ready to lay, I'm not ready to fade
    I'M. NOT. READY TO DIE

  25. R.... r....

    🇧🇷🎶✌✌

  26. J.... H....

    this video deserve to be uploaded again but in HD!!! Love Demon Hunter!!!

    J.... H....

    I would like to see a better video for this song... this band has made more compelling videos than this, and this song is awesome... it would be great to see them present this song as more than just "we played the song live in an unusual environment"... they could totally do it, they have done so with other songs.

  27. M.... ....

    this song is nu metal but they have other songs that are more hardcore or metalcore.

  28. D.... N....

    Un dying my fav demonhunter song so far....

  29. A.... H....

    Love the lyrics its beastmode

  30. F.... ....

    I love this song❤

  31. D.... M....

    2019 and its still a favorite.

  32. w.... H....

    Not ready die by the people hate us

  33. J.... W....

    I love metal bands. They’re so diverse and literally talk about the bullshit that goes on in the world that everyone else is afraid to vocalize. Not the same ol sex and money bullshit. The fact that most “religious” bands choose to spread messages through metal proves so much. Skillet is another example.

    J.... W....

    skillet isn't a metal band. Never was. But I understand your point.

    J.... W....

    DevilDog556 I know skillet isn’t a metal band, but in general, the rock genre speaks more volumes than any piece of shit rap or pop song ever will.

    J.... W....

    @Jordan Wennberg ehhh debatable. Pop yes rap though... Some of that stuff gets really deep. Just not what you hear on the radio.

  34. J.... -....

    ♥_♥

  35. s.... h....

    I love you Demon Hunter songs❤

  36. �.... �....

    wow, great track. what about another one? anybody heared them?

  37. I.... C....

    2018 ✌

  38. J.... L....

    Had a lot of fun years ago making a music video for this song to scenes from Bourne Ultimatum. Had to take it down, but still have it.

  39. Z.... N....

    Ryan Clark's voice is amazing.

  40. D.... ....

    Christian Metal, huh?

  41. A.... J....

    Is it good if I am atheist and still liking this band? haha

  42. R.... U....

    2018 still rocking my boys DH

  43. n.... m....

    This song could fit in the new devil may cry

  44. c.... L....

    How could I forget about these legends. Rock on

  45. J.... ....

    Meh, Training for Utopia is so much better. Such a shame this is what the Clark brothers went on to do.

  46. �.... V....

  47. J.... C....

  48. G.... A....

  51. Z.... N....

    This is a song I've heard 2600 times. Im STILL not tired of it. It rocks!

  52. m.... e....

    De ruim só a qualidade do vídeo

  53. J.... M....

    Jesus is king and he will come for his people and those who cry for mercy and for those who repent.

  54. R.... ....

    I don't care what anyone thinks about religion or whatever. This song is just BAD ASS. End of discussion.

  55. R.... F....

    The quality changed to 144p??? How did this happen? It didn't used to be this way...thanks YouTube processing :/ you guys might have to reupload some music videos....there's no good reason for Google to be pushing down the quality of these videos, this one used to be like 360 or 480.

  56. N.... i....

    Everytime i hear this i smell the smell i smelled in my grandmas house in 2010

  57. b.... u....

    I hate Yisus and Religion but, this band is fucking good.

  58. M.... ....

    БРАВО / BRAVO ...... СЛАВА БОГУ / GLORY TO GOD !!! ☦☦☦

    Hails and support from Serbia 🇷🇸

  59. H.... 2....

    I was looking for A7X's "Not Ready to Die" and I'm glad I accidentally found this video and met Demon Hunter

  60. A.... D....

    Several years ago when I was dating my ex who lied more than anyone else I’ve ever met, he used to tell me that this was his band, and he’d play this song. So this song was playing in my head a few minutes ago, and I remembered him saying that this was him and his friends. I said to myself, “I’ll bet that was another lie.” I looked up the lyrics, and what do you know-it’s an amazing band that has nothing to do with his sorry lying self.

  61. T.... C....

    Majestic beautiful and serenity

  62. S.... ....

    I only listen to a few metalcore bands not vary many but these guys are pretty awesome.

  63. m.... ....

    Some say we shouldn't argue about religion. As a Christian I say we should. We don't need to agree with each other. But we ought to listen to another especially when our views differ.
    There is no reason that we cannot disagree but still be civil to each other

    m.... ....

    what i find hysterical is non religious people come to these videos purely to bash christians and then say we should leave religion out of it.

    m.... ....

    @sh9683 That is because they aren't really non-religious. They are religiously anti-theistic. What I mean by that is for some people it is not enough that they think there is no God they insist that everyone else also think there is no God. I think there is a God but I don't believe in demanding everyone else agree with me. Forced conversion is not only wrong but anti-christian.

  64. P.... ....

    Why isn't this in KF2 is so fitting

  65. S.... O....

    Afff, que bandaaaaaa foda! Amo vocês.

  66. S.... E....

    Killing floor anyone?

  67. R.... &....

    Why in 144p ???

  68. J.... ....

    come on christian dudes i know its cool and all for you that they are religious but could you please just enjoy the music and not comment about your lord and savior every 5 secs thx

  69. Z.... C....

    2018 and still head banging

  70. A.... B....

    I love demon hunter.

  71. B.... ....

    https://youtu.be/uVqVEoFUrg8

  72. T.... S....

    Only kids that didn’t have internet and had to watch it on channel 2005 at like 2am-4am it was nothing but Christian rock/metal. (I think it was TRV).

  73. T.... S....

    I really liked this drummer. Just sayin

  74. Z.... J....

    Long live Demon Hunter! Thank you God for giving me a way out of sin's grip on my life!

  75. J.... A....

    MUITO FERAA!!?

  76. I.... ....

    I love how people come to DH videos knowing they're a Christian band and complain when there are obvious Christian themes in the songs. What the fuck were you expecting, heavy metal hymns about Shiva the Destroyer? Get your shit together, people.

  77. D.... V....

    Essa música é divina, que banda!

  78. C.... ....

    144p in 2017 LETTTSS GOOO

  79. M.... ....

    strigati ca niste turbati

  80. K.... R....

    I honestly find people freaking out about a band's religion kind of weird. There are amazing metal bands from many different views on religion, some atheists, some Satanist, some Christian, some Pagan, some Jewish, some are other views all together. I admit that most metal I listen to is of the atheist or Pagan point of view, but if a band is good, who cares? I grew up with Demon Hunter. I still enjoy listening to them.

  81. f.... ....

    I remember buying this 13 years ago when it came out... Ordered the album and had it shipped to a local Christian bookstore... the older lady behind the counter looked at it........ flipped it over... saw the men standing around a grave with shovels... "I don't know why we're selling this garbage"... I still laugh to this day

  82. S.... J....

    Not a believer (former) but love Demon Hunter. Good stuff. Just don't care to look at the comments. lol

  83. A.... G....

    Awesome song

  84. G.... ....

    Cr1tikal brought me here.

  85. H.... G....

    Time is short. If you want to go to Heaven just believe that Jesus shed his blood for you. He died for three days and rose again. Thats the GOOD NEWS! The Gospel 1 Corinthians 15 1-4. It's easy! His loving grace saves everyone no exceptions! You can't save yourself by works and trying to do good deeds! When Jesus died his last words were, "It is finished". That means there are no more works that need to be done. Pray and confess to Jesus you are a sinner. You don't need to go into detail. He knows your heart better than you do. Tell Him that you need the Holy Spirit to guide you, then He will seal Himself within you, He can't get out. BAM! It's not that hard. Welcome to the Family of God! We love you and remember His love is eternal! Forever and ever!

  86. H.... G....

    When we are in heaven, I know God will provide us with metal like we never heard. Bose will not compare.

  87. r.... j....

    give me that old time religion.. give me that old time religion..
    its good enough for me..

  88. l.... l....

    i loooooooooove this band!!!!!!!! please come to south africa!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  89. L.... W....

    Y'all should hear what they were before demon hunter. Check out Training For Utopia. Weird. But better

  90. R.... A....

    This band is one of the major reasons I got into hard/metal rock. Keep rocking!

  91. H.... H....

    We are at war people, this band gets it!!! I hate Satan and will fight for God in this world till I die and go home.

  92. G.... C....

    Muito bom! Brasil 2017!!

  93. T.... L....
