This Will Be The Day: opening full of energy for a new show ready to burst onto the scene

Time To Say Goodbye: opening still energetic, but now hinting at a more somber and solemn background atmosphere and future

When It Falls: opening that let's us know that now the show takes its dark turn and all hell breaks loose

This song: opening that gives us hope, even in this new, unfamiliar, and even uncomfortable atmosphere, that we can return somewhat to the way things were

Jeff Williams could almost craft the stories based on the songs alone. Thank you so much to him, Casey, and RT for this wonderful show and music, and thanks to Flynt for giving us the lyrics to go with it. Can't wait to see what The Next Step will be!

See what I did there. I have unlocked my inner Barbara. ;)

It used to feel like a fairy tale
Now it seems we were just pretending
We'd fix our world
Then on our way to a happy ending

Then it turned out life
Was far less like a bedtime story
Than a tragedy
With no big reveal of the hero's glory

And it seems we weren't prepared
For a game that wasn't fair

Do we just go home?
Can we follow through?
When all hope is gone,
There is one thing we can do

Let's just live
Day by day and not be conquered by our sorrows
The past can't hold us down
We must break free
Inside we're torn apart
But time will mend our hearts
Move onward not there yet
So let's just live

Can we get back to a happy place?
We've suffered so much pain and sorrow
After yesterday is there any way
We can trust tomorrow?
Will we go through life
Filled with strife like it's torn and tattered
Can we keep this up
When we all know that every hope has shattered?

And the lesson isn't new
That some dreams just can't come true

When it finally falls
And the battle's through
When our faith is gone
And there's nothing left to lose

Let's just live
Day by day and not be conquered by our sorrows
The past can't hold us down
We must break free
Inside we're torn apart
But time will mend our hearts
Move onward not there yet so let's just live

When it feels like there's nothing
Worth living for
Everything is broken
The light's not there anymore
And the story
Takes an unexpected turn
A friend is suddenly gone
We can cry our lives away
But if they were here they'd say
Go forward you must keep moving on

Let's just live
Just one day let's forget our problems
Let's fall in love with life
And just be free
The sun will never fade
The night won't steal our day
Let's laugh and dance and love and let's just live

I feel like RWBY is gradually trying to introduce the idea that, even in life's chaos, even if things aren't perfect, optimism is possible.

@TheEman590 I was very cynical during my high school and college years but now I am so much better. A girl was very persistent and over the years she changed me. I guess love is powerful enough to turn a cynic into someone brand new. Honestly, my life probably would have been terrible and I would die old with regrets with no one to see my passing but she changed everything about me. She introduced me to RWBY.

My wife loved this song when it played during Season 4. She had been battling ovarian cancer for two years, and this song spoke very heavily to her.

She passed away on June 3rd, 8:07pm GMT -5. She really would have wanted to hear the remainder of the song.

The portion at 2:45 still gives me chills, because seriously.. It's exactly how she would have wanted to be remembered.

This song is an anthem to her last two years on this earth, and I thank you for sharing this. It's.. Been a big help.

I like how the line, "but time will mend our hearts" is contraposed with the line, "not every open wound is simply healed by time" from Die. Genius lyricism from Jeff as always!

Die comes from a place of still being stuck on the past but let’s just live comes from a place of healing and moving forward

AbyssWalker

5y↑25

They can both be true at the same time. "Time will mend our hearts", as in just leaving something to mend itself over time. Or "not every open wound is simply healed by time", sometimes you need more than just time to heal a wound. Maybe you need forgiveness, or to just let something go in order to become fully healed.

All these people saying that this song wasn't the best to them, and I'm just over here like, this is the first opening I liked the moment it started playing the first time. It's been my favorite since the first time I heard it and in my opinion is the most heartfelt, catchy, and altogether beautiful openings to be made for RWBY. Of course, this is also taking into account that Casey's voice was an acquired taste for me. I absolutely hated it at first, I didn't get why my datemate was so obsessed with her. But now here I am. just as obsessed if not more.

OrderedComa

Let's Just Live is pretty much tied with This Will Be the Day and The Triumph as my favorite openings. But just talking about this one, I loved this song as soon as I heard it, didn't even know it was one of the openings when I did either, it just really struck a cord with me and felt really uplifting and so instantly became one of my favorite RWBY songs.

riganman69

The first 4 openings have the RWBY kind of vibe that I notice. Hard to explain.

"Go forward, you must keep moving on". To the Volume 4 critics out there (I know there are a lot of you), I ask you this: Would Monty have wanted RWBY to end before it's time, when he'd given them enough to, as he always said, 'keep moving forward"? I think we all know the answer to that. My advice to you is not to stop being critical, but voice your criticisms constructively. If the animation is bad, list examples. If you think the pacing is too slow, point out where. If you just think it's not quite the same without Monty, then you're right, and nobody will argue on that point, but know that they aren't trying to be Monty, and that Monty probably wouldn't want them to be him, either. I think that, if there were anyone he trusted, it would be the staff working on it now.

So we should keep moving forward, as they are.

I agree with what you said, but I don’t know what that has to do with Monty.

This song speaks to me in so many levels.

I've been battling depression ever since my mom passed last year. I'm left with what they call "survivor's guilt" and I feel hopeless. I feel stuck in life, hung up with the feelings of regret and yet hoping hard enough everything gets better. this song encapsulates the extreme sadness and the hope of a better tomorrow I'm constantly feeling

Remicas

7y↑236

I think it's more a RNJR, or more specifically a Ruby and Jaune song than team RWBY, due to the male vocal back up. The lyrics are sad, and close to things Ruby said during the volume, but the melody is upbeat and full of energy like her. The male vocals only join during the first chorus, and grows in confidence during the second verse, mirroring how Jaune, Ren and Norra were inspired by Ruby into following her, and in Jaune's case repaying the favor when Ruby was starting to feel hopeless and doubting herself. On a meta level, of course the friend gone is Monty, but in the show it's Pyrrha (and the line some dream can't come true is a sad reminder of her song Dream Come True). Jaune and Ruby are the ones who seems to be the most affected by Pyrrha's death (since she watched her die and still has nightmares, and he keep watching again and again her video).

Dorian Wynn

Because what's done can not be undone.

Dorian Wynn

can't move forward if your always looking backwards. Stop thinking about the past mistakes that you'll never fix and start doing something about it now and today.

This song..it's everything Ruby is as a character to me. I imagine her singing this as she's just running through the continent of Anima, trying to keep the spirits of Ren, Nora, and especially Jaune up. He said it himself in Vol. 4, Ep...11, I believe, "You gave us the courage to follow you". And during that sad part in the middle, I imagine Ruby explaining how her grief does get her down, even more so than the others perhaps in some ways (I'm not entirely sure on that), but she still holds there memories close, using them as the force that keeps her going. It's something she's probably used to, seeing as she lost her mother, Summer, at such a young age...and that ending just feels like the ending to Vol. 4, they made it! They're ever so closer to their happy ending and she's excited to see what will come, because she knows she'll always have her friends behind her, because they aren't just her friends or teammates or family...they're her life.

While watching this past Volume I'll be honest, I hated this song as it just did not seem to stand up to the others. However, hearing the full version (better quality at that) has changed my mind and I feel that this is the second best intro song in the show (because can you really beat "This Will be the Day"?) In other words, it's F***ing amazing!

Jay B

That is interesting that people didn't really like this at the time of release. As someone that became a late fan who was able to watch Vol 4 right after finishing Vol 3 it fit so perfectly. I definitely understand not liking it if people didn't rewatch Vol 3 before they continued on to Vol 4. The loss of Phyrra and Penny was tough to watch.

this song sums up Volume 4 perfectly. Everyone is trying get past everything they've been through (fall of Beacon, the multiple deaths of friends, Weiss' home life, Blake's regrets, Yang's lost arm). They're just trying their best to survive after so much tragedy while also moving forward in their personal lives (SPOILER: Weiss escapes "house arrest", Blake reconciles with parents, Yang tries out the new prosthetic arm, Ruby searches for answers with Ren, Jaune, and Nora). Also the bridge at 2:33 that was made of Monty made me pause so i could cry my eyes out for a second.

This song literally brought me to tears, and perfectly explains how I felt about my favorite cousin, who committed suicide about 18 years ago, when I was just entering my teenage years. I was a lonely kid, an only child with no cousins or family close to my age, and it felt like he was the only person in the world who understood me. He was older, being a second cousin, and I always looked up to him. I think often about how different my life might have been if he had survived and made it through his crippling depression. He had so many people who loved and cared about him, but he just couldn't see past the darkness, and it consumed him. We have a relatively small close family, and I'm much younger than anyone else (there were no other kids born to my close family in my generation). The very first thing that went through all my family members' minds was "what is going to happen to HS (me)?"

I've had a lot of dark thoughts and some low periods in my life where I was convinced nothing could ever bring me back, but I force myself to remember how I felt, and still feel, after my cousin passed away. It shattered my life at the time, and introduced me to a bitter reality that I wish I hadn't known at such a young age. I try to keep living even when I feel so isolated from reality and happiness, because I never want to put my family or friends through something like that again.

WAIT A NEW RWBY CHIBI'S OUT?!?!?!?!

I LOVE the latter half of the song. That third verse leading into that silence, which then builds back up the most amazing instrumental I've ever heard! This.. is my favorite track in all of rwby. (Followed by 'Its My Turn' in second, then 'All things Must Die' in third).

This is the best RWBY opening and I will die on this hill, from the lyrics to the beat to Casey's vocals, it's just perfect

I heard a lot of my friends saying that they didn't like this theme song because it wasn't as hard rock, but honestly it's my favourite. It just mirrors so perfectly what is going on in the aftermath of volume three and it is a perfect set up for everything in season four. Well done RT.

you may not have seen but a while ago I said a big reason I couldn't wait for Vol 4 was that I needed to see your videos on the soundtrack. as Jaune Arc once said, "I stand by what I said."

I'm gonna be a senior in high school in August. My friends and I love rwby and when I listen to this it makes me realize how fast time and life goes by. I know the song is about season 4 as a whole but I can't help to interpret this song as to what senior year will hold. Anyway I'm done rambling 😅

Wow these full openings are getting pretty long. The last three were in the three minute range and now this one! Not that I'm complaining. More Jeff and Casey is a blessing!

I love this song! This song has many perspective, it can be from RoosterTeeth, Team RNJR, and our perspective. RoosterTeeth lost their friend Monty, but they manage to keep moving forward. RNJR lost Pyrrah and struggle to keep moving forward. And us, facing challenges in our life (losing a friend, looking back on passes, etc.), but we're manage to keep fighting the struggles while we're still on our journey to our happy ending.
This is what I came up with, I wonder what's your thoughts.

My only thought is they both have my utmost respect to keep going when despair loomed around the corner.

Gonna be honest, I stopped watching RWBY after Volume 5. But I still go back and listen to the music. Even if I don't like how the story waa going, there still a lot about RWBY I like (going beyond the music as well). This song is just incredible.

Darien B

@Joelxl There's like... hundereds of other games and shows I wanna watch instead at the moment.

@Velvet Butterfly I feel like the tone shift is what hurt it a lot for me. the big Climax of Volume 3 was amazing, but after that the story just felt waaay to slow. It felt like they wanted to focus on it being darker without realizing what made RWBY special. It just felt like any other fantasy series after that. Another big thing for me was the fight scenes. I know they get better after volume 5, but it feels too homogenized. Like, everyone moves at a break neck speed, every gun feels the same. There's pretty much no foucs on anyone's fighting styles anymore. Also, The whole thing of Whiess not believing that Magic is real when this is a world with elemental dust and fucking superpowers has to be one of the dumbest thing I have ever seen in a story.

Joelxl

At least see the story through till the end!

Velvet Butterfly

May I ask what aspect of the story you didn't like? I think a fair few things are as strong as ever

I'm probably the minority here but I prefer this song over volume 5's theme. It just hits close to home with me since my brother was killed last year and I really do have to keep moving forward day by day.

This is my favorite song, like, ever.
Whenever I feel down, or that there's nothing good left in the world, I listen to this song and immediately forget about all of it, and it reminds me that not everything is bad, and I absolutely love it for that. I love this show, and my only regret was not getting into it before Monty's death, but I'm glad that his creation lives on, even today, both in his friends, and things like this song. Long live Monty Oum!

My girlfriend of 3 and a half years broke up with me about a month ago and this song always felt like it was speaking to me, telling me to keep at it and dont let it hold me down. I really grew to love this song.

Even though RWBY Volume 4 was the beginning of near-crap of the series, the music still holds up strong, especially this track.

There's something special about RWBY. I can't quite pinpoint it. But the feeling comes back to me when I listen to the openings.

Hearing this after listening to the full Volume 8 opening kinda hurts. They’re like stark opposites. How many more travesties are they gonna have to just live out?

The full version of this song came out just after I had lost my big brother. I listened to it a lot. Like alot. And alot of tears come with it (and still do, even now x.x) but it helped me deal with his passing. RIP Monty and my brother D.J.

This is honestly my favourite OP of all time.
The music is both kickass and inspiring.
The visuals and animation are epic and every character relevant to Vol 4 is done justice.
The lyrics are heartfelt and are genius with the double meanings to the show and Monty.
It is a 10/10 opening.

Hey guys. As someone who lost their father to a heart attack, let alone before December, I'm still finding my way again. Whilst we lived in separate families lately, I'm grateful to have enjoyed his company -- we retro gamed, shot pool, and shared drinks. Dad even wanted to take me seeing Vegas at some point... so one day I'll get there, for him. I've already deeply enjoyed this song of all the openings, but now it holds to me that much greater significance. Take care, and let's just live.

God I love this song. From the underlying dedication to the recently deceased characters, as well as to Monty himself, the power behind the lyrics, and those damn guitar solos, keeping such a heavy and dreadful song so upbeat and full of energy.

I was convinced to watch RWBY by a friend. Me and her have been watching 1 volume a day. Man this song hits so hard. The events at this point in the series and thinking about how it applies to my life as well. I am sad to hear of the creator Monty's passing. I know I am years late, but this goes to show how great his vision was if I am a new fan of the series now.

I know some of the early animation was rough, but I love seeing how the team improved and I saw a massive improvement in the animation this volume. I honestly expected to not like the series, but now I am rather mad that I didn't watch it sooner.

It's interesting I thought the song was referencing pyrah or penny being gone but I realised when I read another comment it's deeper than that it's also about monty saying goodbye and reminding everyone we must keep going and not let grief consume us and that is so heart breaking and beautiful at the same time this series and everything and everyone in it is a blessing!

I'll be honest when I say this: I loved RWBY season 1-3, but it just hasn't been the same since Monty passes. Although may think the new seasons suck, there's one thing that will never change: How the anime's songs speak directly to me.
