Lyrics

We build our dreams from the ashes of your nightmares
Carry our father’s sins from the cradle to the grave
We blaze our path through the darkness that you left us in
Now we ride in the belly of the beast
We are the diamonds that choose to stay coal
A generation born to witness the end of the world

Against the grain
Against the odds
Against the world
Forever the underdogs

We are the bastard sons
We are the ones that refused to grow cold
We are the thorn in your side
We are the thieves in the night
And we’re coming to take what’s ours

No regrets we inherit the sins of the fathers
Now reap the vengeance

From the ashes of your nightmare
From the cradle to the grave
We blaze our path through the darkness that you left us in
Now we ride in the belly of the beast
We are the diamonds that choose to stay coal
A generation born to witness the end of the world

Born to witness the end of the world
Viva the underdogs

[Dogmuffns]

Winston looks at the crowd the same way the crowd looks at him and honestly that's what every band needs in a frontman.

[deja_snitty]

Can we take a moment and praise the sound engineer for working magic on this live performance?

[itpennywise]

Ears: hears any song from Parkway Drive

Neck: Ah shit, here we go again

[bigd]

“ A generation born to witness the end of the world” sounds about right

[Civoen]

Can we just appreciate how speechless Winston is when everyone is singing along, you can just see the amount of joy in his eyes.

[gridcoregilry]

The drummer is insane, his blasts are so tight, incredible

[nldftw-]

You can tell how much Winston is enjoying every moment of this by his facial expressions. How far they’ve come...

[oldschoolltv]

I am 52 and I am having to find out the difference between Death Metal, Metal core etc... my son likes Death Metal and while trying to find songs I like in his style I found Parkway drive and love their energy.🤟

[thevengeful]

How far they have come. I remember seeing them in a venue with less than 1000 people in Mexico 9 years ago, and now they are leading Wacken and other festivals, with their own film, filling stadiums around the world. I am completely proud of them, they are the future of metal. 2 years ago I saw them at Hellfest closing the second night and from that moment I knew that they had achieved in 15 years what few can in a lifetime. Here is all the glory of what a band can achieve. Viva the underdogs!

[thegoat]

This song shall be put on the periodic table as the heaviest element on earth.

[Matt_Nor]

The Wild Eyes guitar solo sing along ALWAYS gives me goosebumps
Literally every wild eyes video on YT gets me... it's not even a funny joke
There's something about hearing thousands of people singing along.
Imagine the rush of bliss they must experience on stage EVERY time

[TheMrDarkane]

Parkway Drive is a one of the best metal bands in a history!

[MartinBassCore]

Most epic band that has come from playing in schools in Australia and then THIS NEW WHOLE LEVEL!

[pbfreak]

Fuck this is powerful! Almost gets me emotional! I remember a kid broke down in tears in the pit back in the day cause he had so much built of pain and stress and he let it all out at a show and we all just hugged him and told him we’re all here for him!

[kostas]

Musicians goals:
X Money
X Fame
X Free Gear
✓ The feelings Winston had before "VIVA THE UNDERDOGS" breakdown
✓ Having thousands of people singing along with you

[jameskaplan]

Rockstars never cease to amaze me. The bassist is in a wheelchair and STILL performing. That’s what makes them standout the most, the dedication the their music and their fans

[xRS]

Can we take a minute to understand how Winston must feel having all those people yell back at him. Goosebumps ever fucking time

[MusicDork]

@2:23 When Winston McCall smiles....my heart goes weak. He's freaking amazing.

[james.]

love that you started as a bunch of surfers from Australia and grew your fan base off of live shows.

Truly epic boys and now people all around the world sing your guitar riffs!!

[Xottapchenko]

“Atlas” is honestly one of the greatest music albums ever made, and this song continues to be its dual anthem (paired with Dark Days)
