2. S.C.U.M was a Montreal band. S.C.U.M. already existed from 1980 but the album was released in 1985. They also appeared on the classic 'It Came From The Pit' comp. LP. They also appeared on that other classic comp. 'PEACE/WAR' on Rradical, the label of MDC.
Not that I care what colour of skin people have but it's not very common to have a black singer fronting a punkband.

S.C.U.M Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My second night with you
Said I'd trace my faith
Where I'd stand in time
I accept my faith
Walk me all through you
Walk me all through you
Oceans I will see I hold alone again
A stained glass tear
A window through
Walk me all through you
I am not afraid of
All the shades
We dreamed of faith [x3]
Silence will be true
My second night with you
Said I'd trace my faith
Where I'd stand in time
I accept my faith
Walk me all through you
Walk me all through you
Oceans I will see I hold alone again
I accept my faith sacred only to me
We dreamed of faith [x6]
I accept my faith, will only offer to you
Only offer to you
We dreamed of faith [x3]
The lyrics of "Faith Unfolds" by S.C.U.M delve into themes of acceptance, introspection, and the search for meaning in life. The song hints at the idea of a romantic relationship, but the overarching message is about the journey of self-discovery and the need for faith in oneself. The lyricist seems to be on a quest to find his place in the world, and he uses his relationship with another person as an anchor in this search. He accepts his faith and asks his partner to walk him through their world so that he can gain knowledge and confidence.

The chorus repeats the phrase "we dreamed of faith," emphasizing the significance of having faith and the power of dreaming to manifest a better reality.

11 años sin sacar un disco nuevo, creo que ya está bien.
Necesitamos un disco tan bueno como este ya.
Me encanta este disco, aunque hayan pasado 11 años. Bravo.

I used to run Baldwin Park hill(before every millennial with social media ruined it) and I’d run up and down and turn around and do it again to a curated playlist. I’d know my time based on this song. I always ended the run in a sprint to “Faith Unfolds”. It’s a wonderful track who I suspect never had a runner in mind when they made it...lol.
