Formed in the late 1980's under the banner of DEMI-GOD and then mutating into C/C in 1990, the band, fueled by terrifying rhythmic noise, continually produced awe-inspiring tributes to potency.
Taking on the C/C title in '90, the band shifted into high gear, creating a mutated hybrid of noise, destroyed synths, bass, barked vocals, machined grindcore and live drums. Evidence of this became clear to all with the release of their 1994 CD "Principles of Exclusion" on the Freedom in a Vacuum label.
CRAWL/CHILD met their demise in 1996, but not before leaving an indelible and lasting impression on everyone who had been exposed to this unique being.
The two original members of the band, Howard Gibbs and Bradley Park, are both currently involved with Wadge: Brad, contributing his vocal abilities and Howard, his final mix-down skills.
Time Has Come
Crawl/Child Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's too fast
It's too quick
It won't last
It's not right
But it's not wrong
There's no time
Move along
And I know what's in my heart
And I know what I feel
I can tell when it is real
My time has come
It's okay
Be afraid
It's alright
You just take that fear
Turn it in
To your strength
It's called life
And that's why we're here
Now I've come much too far
And I know what's in my heart
And I know what I feel
And this time I know it's real
My time has come
And like the road below me
I know I'll touch the sky above
A million (a million footprints around me)
Tell me it can be done
My time has come
(Now I've come) I've come much too far
And I know what's in my heart (I know what's in my heart yeah yeah)
And I know what I feel
And this time I know it's real
My time has come
It's so close
It's been a long time coming
It's here and now
And I know it'll last
It's so right
That it can't be wrong
Now's the time
For me to be strong
Now I've come much too far
And I know what's in my heart (I know what's in my heart yeah yeah)
And I know what I feel
This time I know it's real
My time has come
I know that I just gotta keep movin' on ('cause I know)
I know what's in my heart
My time has come
I know that I just gotta keep movin' on ('cause I know)
I know what's in my heart
(I can feel it I can feel it) my time has come
I know that I just gotta keep movin' on ('cause I know)
I know what's in my heart
(I can feel it I can feel it) my time has come
I know that I just gotta keep movin' on (keep movin' on)
I know what's in my heart
I can feel it my time has come
I know that I just gotta keep movin' on (keep movin' on)
I know what's in my heart
I can feel it my time has come (I can feel it)
I know that I just gotta keep movin' on (I can feel it)
I know what's in my heart (my time has come)
I can feel it my time has come
