"For a long time, this band was unwanted. We were a joke to almost everyone (and for part of that time, to ourselves too). Chris from No Sleep was the only dude that cared. We couldn't get other labels or agents or managers to listen, so we said fuck it. We booked our own tours. We took care of our own business. We found our own way. Then, as soon as we had a head of steam, there was all of a sudden a crowd of people telling us we didn't deserve it or that we were sellouts or that we changed. I've spent my whole life with anxiety issues over people not liking me. I wasted so much time worrying about trying to save face for my fuck ups or being nice to people who were dickheads to me. This song is kind of a fuck you to everyone that stands against us. I don't have time for it. Every band wants to be able to go back and play a great hometown show and we finally have that now, but it took years of bullshit to get there. I love our fans. They're awesome people, and we do our best to take the time to hang out with them after every show. It's a big deal for us to have people now that care about us, so we don't take it for granted."
