Upon the band's formation, they released one extended play (EP) in 2007, titled This Is Your Way Out, and shortly after, the group underwent significant line-up and sound changes, dropping their metalcore influence and leaning towards a more rock sound. The band released their debut studio album, Relativity (2008), which featured vocalist Jonny Craig and rhythm guitarist Jonas Ladekjaer. Their second studio album, Emarosa, was released in June 2010, to critical acclaim, and was Craig's final album with the group.
Following Craig's departure, the band toured briefly with a fill-in vocalist before entering a period of inactivity. Eventually, Craig was formally replaced by Walden. Emarosa then released their third studio album, Versus, on September 9, 2014, which peaked at No. 61 in the Billboard 200. The band signed to Hopeless Records and released their fourth and fifth studio albums, 131 (2016) and Peach Club (2019). A sixth, Sting, is set for release in January 2023.

Get Back Up
Emarosa Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I promise you I could be great
When I get back up
I promise you I won't be the same
So I hit that drum to my beat
And I get back onto my feet
When I get back up
I promise you, promise you
Hard times, it's a good fight
I got knocked down for the last time
Is there anybody else out there
Feeling like I'm feeling?
Maybe life's not fair
Hard times and it's not right
I got knocked down, but I'm just fine
If there's anybody else out there
Feeling like I'm feeling
Let it go
When I get back up
I promise you I could be great
When I get back up
I promise you I won't be the same
So I hit that drum to my beat
And I get back onto my feet
When I get back up
I promise you, promise you
(When I get back up)
Tough times, been a rough ride
I'm always down for the upside
Is there anybody else out there
Feeling like I'm feeling?
Maybe life's not fair
Tough times, it's a good fight
I live my life with a black eye
If there's anybody else out there
Feeling like I'm feeling?
Let it go
When I get back up
I promise you I could be great
When I get back up
I promise you I won't be the same
So I hit that drum to my beat
And I get back onto my feet
When I get back up
I promise you, promise you
(When I get back up)
When I get back up, when I get back up
(When I get back up)
When I get back up, when I get back up
When I get back up
I promise you I could be great
When I get back up
I promise you I won't be the same
So I hit that drum to my beat
And I get back onto my feet
When I get back up
I promise you, promise you
(When I get back up)
When I get back up, when I get back up
(When I get back up)
When I get back up, when I get back up
(When I get back up)
When I get back up, when I get back up
(When I get back up)
The lyrics to Emarosa's song "Get Back Up" are about resilience and determination in the face of hardship. The singer acknowledges that life can be tough and unfair, but vows that they will not be defeated by their circumstances. They pledge to rise above their struggles and become a better person for it. The repeated refrain of "When I get back up, I promise you I could be great / When I get back up, I promise you I won't be the same" emphasizes the transformative power of overcoming adversity.
The verses describe the singer's experiences with being knocked down and feeling like life is a constant battle. However, they also declare that they are "just fine" and refuse to let their struggles define them. The use of the drum as a symbol of resilience and determination creates a powerful and inspiring image.
"Get Back Up" is a motivational anthem that encourages listeners to persevere through hard times and believe in their own ability to overcome obstacles. It reminds us that even when we feel knocked down, we have the power to rise again and become stronger than ever before.

So that's what this is. Thanks.
@X-treme_13
My mother & I went thru so much together. Between a bio "dad" that was abusive to boyfriends that were the same way. She ended up marrying the man that adopted me & treats me as his own. Ma passed away 5 years ago & when I watch this video or hear the song I instantly think of her. Love you Ma.

I didn't think Emarosa was capable of making something so bizarre and amazing at the same time.

I've been a big fan of theirs for 11 years.
I like Relativity, but I like Peach Club too! All songs of the album are great.
