The Blood, The Sweat, The Tears Lyrics
Yes I walk the righteous
Many men have walked before
And this pain's held
A broken shell
Straight shackled onto the floor
So welcome to the world
That i lived in
Puking up bile and hate
My world has turned
To false inclusion
Sickening broken state
But then I'll see
There's things in me
That make you want it
More than you
But I deny all this
Cause pain was my bliss
Get wasted on self destruct
Just hold on to the edge
It's all about
The blood, the sweat, the tears
Attribute to the strength
Built through the years
Yes i walk the path
That gives me
Confidence strong and pure
Now i realize
That freedom rises
From confronting the source
I built these walls around me
And I can break them all away
I'll focus all the strength I call
Into unstoppable energy
so hold on to the edge
It's all about
The blood, the sweat, the tears
Attribute to the strength
Built through the years
Hold on
I'm not falling
Not falling down again
It's all about
The blood, the sweat, the tears
Attribute to the strength
Built through the years
Believe me that
Time will sear the wound
Time will sear the wound
Time will seal the wound
Many men have walked before
And this pain's held
A broken shell
Straight shackled onto the floor
That i lived in
Puking up bile and hate
My world has turned
To false inclusion
Sickening broken state
There's things in me
That make you want it
More than you
Cause pain was my bliss
Get wasted on self destruct
The blood, the sweat, the tears
Attribute to the strength
Built through the years
That gives me
Confidence strong and pure
Now i realize
That freedom rises
From confronting the source
And I can break them all away
I'll focus all the strength I call
Into unstoppable energy
The blood, the sweat, the tears
Attribute to the strength
Built through the years
I'm not falling
Not falling down again
The blood, the sweat, the tears
Attribute to the strength
Built through the years
Time will sear the wound
Time will sear the wound
Time will seal the wound

I think this song is Robb Flynn saying that the reason they have succeded as a band, is because of their will to succeed and the fact that it is all down to the 'blood, sweat and tears' they have shed. I also think it is a reply to people who were calling them sell-outs, saying that "the reason we are here, is because we worked so hard for this".
I agree with all of you!!
I think that this song is about the effort and pain they put into getting to were they are today, and how u should push yourself if u want to suceed in life.
The message of the song is embracing hardship, using it as fuel for personal growth, and finding strength within yourself to overcome adversity. It serves as an anthem for resilience, self-discovery, and empowerment. It also suggests that with time, the pain and wounds you face will heal, and that the strength built through overcoming challenges leads to growth and emotional resilience.
