Be Giving
Nico Vegas Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Say we will be giving.
We won't be cheap, we will be willing.
We'll pray for what we have in honor of the fortune we'll give thanks to the past.
I'm gonna drive off naked with the top down,
Even if I don't make it to the next town,
I'm gonna sleep on the floor tonight 'cause I don't need a damn bed to survive on.
Chains cut, the chains see the world as a brother and a sister now
Chains cut, the chains see the world as a brother and a sister.
We're free from the labor.
We will work hard for friends and neighbors,
We'll stay up above cause we belong here with the light and the love.




Chains cut, the chains see the world as a brother and a sister now chains cut,
The chains see the world as a brother and a sister now chains, cut the chains, cut the chains

Yes, Infinite introduced me to Nico Vega, just like Alan Wake introduced me to Poets of the Fall. I wish more game developers would work with bands like this. It has opened me to music I might not otherwise have heard.

I just recently discovered them, and I have to say, they're incredible. I wish they were more well known so it'd be easier to accessing and finding their music online.
