Take You with Me
Tremonti Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Never mistake what we are
We stand up high with our battle scars
Never regret or fight alone
We'll stand apart on our fight song

Now take your hand in mine and never let go
I give my life defined, what you already know
(You already know)

I'll take you with me
We'll carry on
I don't mind waiting
Don't mind at all

Oh
Oh
Go disengage, liberate
You follow a chain to go your own way
Never forget where you been
We'll stand up high with our weapon

Now take your hand in mine and never let go
I give my life defined, what you already know
(You already know)

I'll take you with me
We'll carry on
I don't mind waiting
Don't mind at all

Oh
Oh
We've come much too far
I'll pass the word away
Embrace now who we are
We're standing up again
Found strength and now we know
Release and let it go
Let it go

I'll take you with me
We'll carry on
I don't mind waiting
Don't mind at all

Oh

Jason LovesABR definitely, shinedown, Trivium and Bullet for my Valentine are also amzing bands that evolve with every album... but literally every single song Mark has touched since creed and every thing that myles has ever touched is absolutely amazing... btw not hating on creed, creed is great in its own right, but not as good and not as epic as Alter Bridge and Tremonti

@menamgamg

Jason LovesABR bfmv never really evolved.. or i guess very slowly xD and in their case imo only for the worse.

True true. But Creed wasn’t his fault. Blame that on Stapp.

@VlaDuZa

6y↑55

Creed's first album is flawless (almost classic), the second is good, the third isn't bad and the fourth was very decent (since Mark had evolved a lot and it had solos and very badass riff sections and overall heavier tighter sound). Creed's material isn't as good as the rest of Mark's work but it has it's own moments and highlights in a way none of his other bands have. Plus Creed is basically what gave him worldwide recognition, a Grammy award, filled his bank account with a shitload of money and funded his future acts and made them possible.

I was in the shower blasting Pandora when this came on. Never heard this song before, but I'm a huge Alter Bridge/Creed fan & I immediately knew it was Mark. Of course I had to jump out dripping wet to look at my phone before it was over to see the song title. Have I been living under a rock!?!? I've been blasting this all night now. Can't stop. Mark is an amazing writer, composer, guitarist, etc. Him & Myles are my heroes...and I'm a drummer! 😆

I have to say it mark tremonti is the most underrated guitar player ever, he doesn't get the credit he deserves. From the early days of Creed, to Alter Bridge and his solo projects. In comparison with all the other guitar legends (Hammett, young, van halen, slash, schenker, richards) he also can sing like a god. So maybe just maybe Tremonti is the greatest Guitar player/ Songwriter/ Artist of our generation. Also love this song
