1 - Caliban, a metalcore band, was formed in Germany in 1997 under the name Never Again. After 6 months of playing together, the band recorded their first two songs for a compilation, which was never released. The songs were sent to several record labels, and Lifeforce Records was the first to offer the band a record deal. The band's first self-titled MCD came out in the summer of 1998. To promote the CD, Caliban played many shows all over Europe and a few support shows for bands like Morning Again, Earth Crisis, and Cro-Mags.
After their European tour, in 1999 Caliban entered the studio to record their first full-length CD, entitled A Small Boy and a Grey Heaven. The CD received favorable reviews in many big zines and many smaller hardcore and metal zines. The band was described as a mixture of Slayer, Poison the Well, and Hatebreed.
Vent came out in April 2001. Vent was released by Imperium Records and by Howling-Bull Records in Japan. Shortly after the release, Caliban was offered the opportunity to tour Japan to play the Beast-Feast 2001 in the Yokohama Arena, sharing stage with bands including Slayer, Pantera, Machine Head, Biohazard, and Morbid Angel. The Japan trip was followed by a US tour with Bloodjinn, which was interrupted by the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.
In August 2002 Caliban recorded their third official release Shadow Hearts. This record was more melodic and harmonic than its predecessors. In 2004 the band got a record deal with Roadrunner Records and started to record their fourth album, The Opposite From Within, alongside famous producer Andy Sneap.
In July 2005 the band again made a record with their friends from Heaven Shall Burn called The Split Program II.

My Time Has Come
Caliban Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Out into the light, I was scared and I cried
But I believed in something more
You are guilty for
This darkness, you gave me everyday
Every time you pushed me away
The coldness, you had shown me everyday
No mercy for the merciless
No forgiveness
No mercy for the merciless
No forgiveness, go
I was not willing to believe that's all
All the pain, all the tears, all the lies
There was a great spark in the dark
A shining mark
This darkness, you gave me everyday
Every time you pushed me away
The coldness, you had shown me everyday
You'll never hurt me again
Your time is gone
My time has come
Your life is done
This darkness, you gave me everyday
Every time you pushed me away
The coldness, you had shown me everyday
You'll never hurt me again
No mercy for the merciless
No forgiveness
No mercy for the merciless
No forgiveness
The lyrics of Caliban's song "My Time Has Come" speak of the struggles of an individual who battled through the darkest days and finally found their way back into the light. The opening line "I fought my way through the darkest days" sets the tone for the song, describing the effort that the person had to put in to rise above their situation. Despite facing fear and tears, they held onto the belief that there is something better they can aspire to. However, along the way, the individual faced external negativity from someone else who caused the darkness in their life, as depicted in the line "This darkness, you gave me everyday." The person who caused the darkness pushed them away, treated them with coldness and caused immense hurt. Nonetheless, the singer managed to overcome it all and now stands victorious against them, ensuring they will never hurt them again.
The chorus that repeats the phrase "No mercy for the merciless, No forgiveness" highlights the sense of justice that the singer feels towards the person who caused them pain. They refuse to forgive the person who caused the darkness in their life and choose to not show mercy towards them. The singer believes in the idea of karma, and it is now the turn of the person who caused them pain to experience the same. The lines "Your time is gone, My time has come, Your life is done" emphasize the power shift that has happened, and the singer has no qualms about leaving them behind and moving forward in life.

I fought my way through the darkest days
I struggled through difficult times
Out into the light, I was scared and I cried
Finally, when I saw the light, I was scared and emotional
But I believed in something more
I held on to hope and believed in something larger than myself
You are guilty for
You are to blame for my pain and suffering
This darkness, you gave me everyday
You made me feel constantly down, hopeless, and gloomy
Every time you pushed me away
You rejected, ignored and pushed me further into darkness
The coldness, you had shown me everyday
Your lack of care and concern added to my troubles every day
You'll never hurt me again
I will no longer let you cause me pain or injury
No mercy for the merciless
I will not show kindness to the cruel or merciless
No forgiveness
I will not forgive you for what you have done
Your time is gone
You no longer have any control or power over me
My time has come
It's my turn to shine and take control of my life
Your life is done
You no longer have any impact or significance in my life
