Currently my favorite song is The Storm, by my favorite band- Of Mice And Men. I even have the lyrics tattooed on me:
From my favorite lines: and now I sing, for everything that I've lost, and now I scream for everything that I've loved.
Of Mice And Men is a metalcore/ post hardcore band. People look at me strange when I say I like this genre. It's weird to me. I enjoy metal, punk, screamo, alternative, grunge, thrash, and deathcore bands and people ask me to name 10 songs from bands of that genre that I say I like. It's only those genres that I seem to get questioned in. I could say I like reggae (which I do) or something and say I like the band Skits (which you should check out) or I like to shake my butt to a little Ariana Grande pop or whatever they play in clubs, no one would say anything, but as soon as I say I like Lamb Of God, Iron Madien, Metallica, Coheed And Cambria, or Slayer, to name a few, people ask me to name songs. And it's not in a nice way, it's sarcastic, like I've never heard of the band. Like, am I only allowed to like rap? Which I didn't even grow up hearing. I was taught that music was "trashy" but I've learned to think for myself. I can name 3-4 rappers that have made it on my playlist, and I don't have more than 4 or 5 songs from any of them. Honestly, it's offensive, but if they don't know me personally, I don't take it personal. I like a wide variety of music. Sometimes I wanna head bang, sometimes I wanna cry, sometimes I wanna shake my butt, sometimes I wanna feel like a rebel, I sometimes I wanna grove, and sometimes I wanna drift away. There's a different genre to make a person feel all of those things and I want to feel it all. Not just one.
Love, DreamStar
