Cover art for Ransom lyrics by Becoming the Archetype

This song sounds like it's about Jesus dying on the cross and suffering. In effect, paying he ransom for our sins.

I love the last part of the song:

"my hands have taught me terrible things, his hands have set me free."

Ok, so Becoming the Archetype is probably my favorite death metal band of all time. However, I get criticized because I myself am not christian, but Christain death metal is by far the hardest metal I've ever listened to. Living Sacrifice, Becoming the Archetype, In Flames, Demon Hunter, Nodes of Randier.
