Thick and Thin
Stray from the Path Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But it's only just begun
I like to think back to
Where this all started from
Back to the days when
Your friends are what mattered most and we took that for granted
And sometimes it takes
The loss of one to open your eyes
Through thick and thin believe me when I say
I'll always be there for you
I'll die for any one of you
In "Thick and Thin," Stray from the Path reflects on the bonds of friendship that have been tested but remain unbreakable. The opening lines acknowledge the hardships that have been faced together, but also suggest that there is more to come. The lyrics then backtrack to a time when relationships were simpler and friends were the most important thing. However, as time passed, the importance of those friendships seemed to be taken for granted until the loss of one of those friends made them appreciate what they still had. The song serves as a reminder to cherish those relationships and to understand that they may be tested, but they remain strong through thick and thin.
The song touches on the idea of loyalty and selflessness for the sake of friendship. The line "I'll die for any one of you" shows the willingness to sacrifice for the people that mean the most. It's about something deeper than just a bond between friends; it's about a community and the understanding that an individual's well-being is linked to the well-being of the group. The song also acknowledges that fights and arguments may occur, but it's important to remember the foundation of love and support that the friendships were built upon. Through all of the highs and lows, Stray from the Path encourages listeners to hold on tight to what truly matters.

We've been through so much
We have experienced a lot of things together
But it's only just begun
But we still have a lot more to go through together
I like to think back to
I like to remember
Where this all started from
Where our journey began
Back to the days when
Back to a time when
Your friends are what mattered most and we took that for granted
Our friends were the most important thing to us, but we didn't appreciate them
And sometimes it takes
And sometimes it requires
The loss of one to open your eyes
Losing someone to make you realize
To what you've really got
What you truly have
Through thick and thin believe me when I say
No matter what happens
I'll always be there for you
I will always support you
I'll die for any one of you
I am willing to sacrifice everything for any of you

Best band ever, Just their whole message and sound. Anti Ignorance is the way to go
SmugglinMuffins
I'd just like to say that this video is one of my favorites. Regardless of what everyone is interpreting the "message" as, I'm seeing these guys perform with passion and aggression with some interesting footage that just makes this a successful cohesive composition from a band who knows what they're doing. You just gotta love this video. Stray From the Path is simply just a sweet band, but this is all just coming from a stoned fan who is jammin to some aggressive tunes
Normie Peasant
Still so good after all these years.
Nu Gloom
This has to be one of the hardest songs ever made
Kyle Norton
