OUTBREAK
Legenda Aurea Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Believe in the strength you have
And you're rid of this burden!
The fallen one:
I am the sovereign of the legions
I will make you crawl!
I was born with intent to destroy and none will come through
The resurrected one:
Get free of this wrecking force!
The path of love will lead you
The fallen one:
I laugh myself to death
God is so weak and powerless!
Where is he now? I spit on the grave of his son!
----
Trapped in a downward spiral
Birth, death and decay
My core seems to break
I'm far from hope
I have reached the point of no return
My head seems to explode
These voices shall become silent...
I can't endure this anymore
The song "Outbreak" by Legenda Aurea depicts a conflict between two opposing forces, the resurrected one and the fallen one, with different views on the search for strength and the concept of love. The resurrected one encourages the listener to believe in their strength to overcome burdens, while the fallen one boasts about his power over legions and mocks the idea of God's strength. In the end, the song takes a depressive turn, as the singer expresses being trapped in a downward spiral and reaching the point of no return.

The resurrected one: Believe in the strength you have And you're rid of this burden!
Believe in your own power and you can free yourself from the negativity that weighs you down!
The fallen one: I am the sovereign of the legions I will make you crawl! I was born with intent to destroy and none will come through
I am in control, and I will dominate you! I was born to harm and will stop at nothing to bring you down.
The resurrected one: Get free of this wrecking force! The path of love will lead you
Escape this destructive force and turn toward love instead; it will guide you.
The fallen one: I laugh myself to death God is so weak and powerless! Where is he now? I spit on the grave of his son!
I find humor in the idea of God's weakness and lack of control. Where is he now to protect his own son, whom I have no respect for?
Trapped in a downward spiral Birth, death and decay
I am stuck in an endless cycle of decline, aging, and demise.
My core seems to break I'm far from hope
I feel like I am falling apart, and all hope is lost.
I have reached the point of no return My head seems to explode
I have hit rock-bottom and can't go back; my mind feels like it's about to give out.
These voices shall become silent... I can't endure this anymore
The mental noise in my head will finally stop, but I can't continue living like this any longer.

You're right about COVID really expanding the community. I think there were just plenty of sleeper hobbiests. Myself included. For me... pre-COVID, I picked up a bio minor with a focus in genetics and botany at UT and never properly engaged it because wielding my Computer Science AI major was more lucrative and ate up all my time and had no real space for plants.
Before covid I think I had like... Maybe 10 plants at home and maybe took care of 5 or 6 at the office... it was pretty casual.
I had never done a proper outdoor garden. But, during covid I got to spend time at home and finally got to apply my minor to my work space because it isn't a shared office and is my home in which I can do whatever I want. COVID gave me the space to properly reimagine what it looked like to use both of my degrees at the same time.
Now I've automated my outdoor food garden with more plants then I can count and my indoor game has elevated substantially.
Early covid I was propping basil on my windowsill. Now, the majority of my props are rare plants and they have their own room that I call my grow lab.
And on top of that, in the name of COVID plant parents upping the game, I think I've isolated a clear problem in the plant space where it comes to really teaching people how to care for their plants. I think this is really where my two majors meet and can shine and fill a need that merges plant care with AI. I personally don't need the thing but I think watering is people's biggest problem... I think it'd be pretty cool to be able to automate building custom tailored instructions that handhold people through their watering needs in the form of a phone app that just alerts you when you ACTUALLY need to water based on your actual in home conditions for each individual plant and simplifies it all down to a basic push notification on your phone.
Anyway, thanks for the videos during COVID. I can't count how many times I watched your Albo videos trying to figure my stuff out. The info and clarity has been invaluable.

I’m a pandemic plant parent and I can’t imagine going back to a life without my babies. My plants saved me from going into a really dark place especially after losing my mom to covid, so nope my plants are here to stay!
@amelie9271
I’m so sorry for your loss.
I lost my partner of 17 years to complications from Covid last August and, like you, my plants have been very therapeutic for me in the darkest points of my grief. I’ve collected plants for many years but this last year their care and attention took on a whole new meaning. They gave me structure and purpose in my day and filled the void that I was left with when he passed.
I hope your plants continue to bring you joy and comfort during this difficult time. 💕🪴💕
@triciaroy
I’m sorry to hear about your mom. I’m glad you found plants though. 💚🪴
@Rin-gd5zm
I work in the pet industry, last year you couldn't even adopt a pet due to high number of adopters, this year we are seeing many returns. Can't imagine plants are much different once people run out of time or can't adjust their schedule
@amelie9271
Ugh. This makes me so sad. Many people don’t understand what being a (responsible) pet owner entails.
We too have so many dogs in the shelters here right now that need homes because they were dropped off or returned after people got back to “real life” and they became a burden.
Breaks my heart.
@notverynotoriousg5674
that's kind of my problem, pandemic plants are just plants, pandemic pets are literally being dumped in the street and kennels and rescues are full. reminds me why i like plants more than people.
@CookieDr007
Ugh I have noticed the same for both-- we manage a non profit city dog park and it's like a 40% attrition rate and then folks a year later are trying to adopt again as if anything has changed 🤦 pets aren't fast fashion/replaceable 😒 And every week I see tons of plants in their original greenhouses pots just tossed in the trash like so so many plants that are neglected and I'm pretty sure placed in a dark corner and then shocked they die. It's all replaceable and cheap and awful😭♻️

Always been a planty person way before this rage. I’m in my 60s and have had plants since I was a child. Indoor/outdoor all plants. I could never figure out why people didn’t love plants like me. I’m overjoyed that so many have jumped on the plant train. It makes me so happy. Such a rewarding hobby. As life gets back to somewhat normal please pandemic parents don’t give up on your plants. Stick with this beautiful hobby it’s a lifelong journey. 💚

It truly is a life long journey!!!
