The shocking scream definitely caught me off guard, I was NOT expecting it at all. Such a brilliant surprise. The whole song is as though an action-heist movie (My favorite type), the first part is planning and execution, then a twist that no one foresees happens. I love how the scream is towards the end, and the song's ending comes quickly afterwards. Leaving me speechless with my ears and mind filled with different emotions. Lingering for the smooth parts as well as enjoying the twist of fate and the soothing ending.

Can't find a negative adjective for this song. Absolutely my favorite!

+Minh Tran Anh Thanks for the super kind words, dude! I'm glad to know you liked my experimental/different track so much ^_^

@Demondawg1000

This song sent the album out with a bang.  Honestly, everytime i heard one of the songs from this album i thought to myself :man he'll never be able to top this" and everytime you proved me wrong.  Cingratulations Morgan, I can't wait to see what you'll do next. Love you dude :)

@SatsumaDev

I hope Morgan will make more songs something like this.

@CiaTheAnimeDrawer

This is crazy underrated. I've listened to MDK since 2012-2013 ish and I always wonder how this song never reached 1 mil. AT LEAST.
It's beyond amazing and gives you such a big boost of hope and spirit.
