Raised By Wolves Lyrics
I was lost now I'm found,
I'm sustained by the sound,
Of the angels singing me to sleep,
While my feet are leaving the ground,
Am I dead? Or am I dreaming instead?
A cornucopia of opiates have flooded my head
I'm insane, I am smart,
All it takes, is a spark, to ignite my bad intentions,
And do what I do best to your heart,
Don't be fooled I was raised by the wolves,
Now the moon hangs in full, so you know I won't play by the rules
[Chorus]
I will never spill
(spill my blood for you)
You have let me down
(one too many times)
Someway somehow, we've fallen out,
Caught in between my enemies,
No way not now, I won't back down,
I draw the line at you and me,
You're what I started, now disregarded,
One day they'll see, it was always me
Due to mistakes, I have made to this day,
I am trapped inside a Dillinger,
Diligently thinking of ways to get out of this god awful place,
I have learned that my Fate is something I can't Escape so,
Sound the alarm, what I've said from the start,
Is I'll never let your system break me down or tear me apart,
Don't be fooled I was raised by the wolves,
Now the moon hangs in full so you know I won't
Play by the rules
[Chorus]
Oh, this is the end of you
This is where I draw the line
And I won't lose
This war is mine
Oh
Spill my blood for you
One too many times
Someway somehow, we've fallen out,
Caught in between my enemies,
No way not now, I won't back down,
I draw the line at you and me,
You're what I started, now disregarded,
One day they'll see, it was always me.
One day they'll see,
It was always me
It was always me
I'm sustained by the sound,
Of the angels singing me to sleep,
While my feet are leaving the ground,
Am I dead? Or am I dreaming instead?
A cornucopia of opiates have flooded my head
All it takes, is a spark, to ignite my bad intentions,
And do what I do best to your heart,
Don't be fooled I was raised by the wolves,
Now the moon hangs in full, so you know I won't play by the rules
I will never spill
(spill my blood for you)
You have let me down
(one too many times)
Someway somehow, we've fallen out,
Caught in between my enemies,
No way not now, I won't back down,
I draw the line at you and me,
You're what I started, now disregarded,
One day they'll see, it was always me
I am trapped inside a Dillinger,
Diligently thinking of ways to get out of this god awful place,
I have learned that my Fate is something I can't Escape so,
Sound the alarm, what I've said from the start,
Is I'll never let your system break me down or tear me apart,
Don't be fooled I was raised by the wolves,
Now the moon hangs in full so you know I won't
Play by the rules
This is where I draw the line
And I won't lose
This war is mine
Oh
One too many times
Caught in between my enemies,
No way not now, I won't back down,
I draw the line at you and me,
You're what I started, now disregarded,
One day they'll see, it was always me.
One day they'll see,
It was always me
It was always me

This song is all about Ronnie, and his thoughts surrounding the recent events in his life. He claims Escape The Fate only became big because of him. And is nothing now without him.
Now, my logic as to why Falling In Reverse will not last: Ronnie's the reason they've become big so quickly, and he knows it.
"This war is mine." The war is not his band's. It is his. Ronnie is the center of attention, and the other band members are just accessories. I know he's a front man, and this is the case for many bands, but this just goes that further. As they get bigger, the other members will want more of the spotlight, but it will all be taken by Ronnie. They will have a falling out, and the band will break up. Don't get me wrong, he's a very talented man. But he's part of a band, he isn't a one-man show.
Just my theory. :3
yea from the get go all they did was advertise that it was ronnies new band. and no one would have heard of them other wise so they really cant bitch much. they got to skip several steps that most bands have to do to get signed. hell as far as i know they didnt even have a show before they were signed. wtf?

Very True I love how after the album was finished Nason left because he thinks he got enough spot light to start his own band.. like really?

I agree with you in a sense. I don't think the band name will die, but I wouldn't be surprised if there are several changes in the rest of the band. Not gonna lie, Ronnie is the reason I like Falling In Reverse, but I got a huge question, did Ronnie recruit them or they recruited Ronnie? Because if Ronnie recruited them then technically I think the band in a sense will survive. Usually when bands are looked at we talk most about the vocalist and guitarist who are also most of the time the bands main lyricist. (I said...

Usually when bands are looked at we talk most about the vocalist and guitarist who are also most of the time the bands main lyricist. (I said most because there are a few like Rush where the drummer plays the biggest role in lyric writing.) So all in all the reason they got signed was because Ronnie still had a contract with Epitaph, before he was jailed he was preparing to start a new project and didn't have to worry about getting signed because his contract didn't end.
Yeah personally I do think the band has become so big is noticeably because of Ronnie, although I also think that the "This war is mine" is a play on Escape The Fate's "This War Is Ours" and how else was he supposed to say it without saying "This war is ours"? I'll say they have at least 2-3 more albums before shit goes in any issues with line-up or whatever :)

@devonodev hey guess what, they've lasted for 5 years :)

@devonodev hey guess what, it’s 2021 and they lasted, they did an online show with more than 25.000 tickets sold, so yeah, he was raised by wolves.

@devonodev @devonodev just made an account to let you know FIR is #1 and thriving right now. Easily one of the most unique bands to ever exist. Your prediction failed and he was right. They’re nothing. And he’s on top.

"I just learned that my fate is something I cant escape so"
PERFECT way to incorporate Escape the Fate in a song of retaliation.
<3333
Pretty easy to say this is about ETF. Can't wait for this album.
"Villains only of thinking of ways to get out of this God awful place."
Should be.. "Diligently thinking of ways to get out of this God awful place."
One day they'll see, it was only me"
This line shows that Escape the Fate was only good because of Ronnie
"I draw the line between you and me"
This shows that Ronnie is drawing the line between ETF
"Your what I started, know what i disregarded"
This shows that he started with them but quite
"I was lost, i was bound, i was stained, i was bound, while the angels sing me to sleep" This shows about him in prison
"This war is mine" Hes making fun of ETF
The wolves are ETF
"This shows that he started with them but quite" QUITE? do you mean Quit? If so he didn't quit.. If you think he quit get your facts straight. He got in a fight and Max came along.. Max brought a gun to the fight and blamed the whole thing on Ronnie... When he went to prison ETF kicked him out beacuse they wanted to make music while he was in prison.

Technically he's not making fun of ETF, The whole time Ronnie was out of ETF, There was a "war" waged between them, Now that Ronnies out, He's claiming the war is his as if hes going to take over the scene and shut ETF out.

i always thought when he said he was raised by wolves i thought it meant he's not gunna give in and he's gunna fight back against ETF

I think the line "This war is mine" is a play on words on their song "This War Is Ours"

Chanley74, you need to get your facts straight. It was Chase Rader, one of Ronnie's friends, that fired the gun. Max's blame is that the guys ronnie was fighting were originally after him but ronnie stepped in. Ronnie was also arrested for parole violations . get ur shit straight before telling someone else to get theres straight.

I just learned that my fate is something I cant escape - obviously ETF. You're what I started, Now disregarded - He started ETF but quit like Jon said This war is mine! OH! - ETF song: This war is ours! Yeah!
Song is obv. about ETF
Yea thats what I thought too
Yea thats what I thought too
Omg this song is so well written and witty its incredible
All it takes is a spark to ignite my bad intentions and do* what i do best to your heart
"I just learned that my fate is something I cant escape" I see this as a reference to actual FATE. The band ETF the title stood for escaping fate and Ronnie may have tried to escape FATE, but just like Karma, Fate came back and bit him in the ass.
The perfect retaliation song... ETF-This War Is Ours. Ronnie- "This War Is Mine" Now I'm a fan of both bands, however Ronnie has just absolutely smacked ETF down xD
