God Fearing Man Lyrics – Imminence

God Fearing Man Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
The singer is searching for God in silence, hoping for redemption. The “blacked horizon” suggests darkness, despair, or being lost. They want to be accepted and find peace, longing for something to save them from their struggles.

[Refrain]
“Twist the knife” represents pain that keeps coming back, like an emotional wound that never heals. Fear is a powerful force that controls people, but strangely, the suffering also brings a sense of purpose or meaning. The repeated contrast between pain and relief shows the deep conflict inside, where suffering and comfort seem to exist together.

[Verse 1]
The person hides from reality because the truth is too painful to face. They would rather stay in denial than confront the harshness of their emotions. But deep down, they know that ignoring it won’t make it go away—it only makes them feel more broken.

[Pre-Chorus]
The suffering is overwhelming, yet it feels almost comforting, as if pain is the only thing familiar. They feel lost in anger and hatred, but at the same time, they still crave redemption. It’s a constant battle between bitterness and the hope of being saved.

[Chorus]
They are still searching for God, hoping to be let in and find answers. The “blacked horizon” symbolizes uncertainty and darkness, but they’ve reached a point where they don’t need to understand everything. Whatever happens after death doesn’t matter—they just want forgiveness, even if it means enduring more pain.

[Breakdown]
“Twist the knife” means the suffering continues, cutting deeper. It’s a metaphor for enduring more emotional pain and self-destruction.

[Verse 2]
They fear dying before experiencing everything life has to offer. They don’t want to leave this world with regrets. They plead for mercy, hoping they won’t be judged too harshly for their struggles and mistakes.

[Pre-Chorus]
Once again, the conflict between pain and comfort is repeated. The suffering is unbearable, yet it has become a part of them. Nothing feels sacred anymore because hatred and bitterness have taken over.

[Chorus]
They continue searching for meaning, hoping for forgiveness and peace. They no longer seek answers—just some kind of release from their struggles. The uncertainty of the afterlife doesn’t scare them as much as their own inner torment.

[Refrain]
Fear is controlling them, and the pain keeps intensifying. They feel stuck in this cycle of suffering, where agony and relief blend together in a confusing way.

[Breakdown]
They long for a new beginning, a chance to break free from their suffering. They want to overcome their fears and burdens, but they still feel like they’re carrying the weight of a broken world on their shoulders.
