For My Sunday Song #477, we are talking about the song from the Christian Metal band Decyfer Down called “Fight Like This”. The album, ‘End of Grey’, was released on June 6, 2006 and the single, “Fight Like This”, and all three other singles went to #1 on the Christian Rock Charts and #43 on the Christian album chart. The band consisted of Caleb Oliver on vocals and bass, Brandon Mills and Christopher Clonts both on guitar and last but not least, drummer Josh Oliver. Strangely, it was the only album to feature Caleb on lead vocals.

The song is credited to all the band members and only consists of two short verses and a lot of choruses. So not much there to go on, but to me the song seems to be about fighting your inner demons or the forces around you that are trying to bring you down. The song appears to be about fighting against those forces and fighting with everything you have. The intensity suggests a fight against spiritual temptation or negative influences that have gone too far, demanding a strong response and according to the lyrics, those temptations or forces have crossed a line that should not be crossed. Let the fight begin.

The intensity of the music shows the fight is going to be hard, heavy and destructive. You can feel the anger, the drive, the fight that is inside of him to go against the demons he is facing. The guitars are roaring, the drums are pounding destructively hard. The bass is thumping the rhythm of the heart and all together the battle sounds like it is going to be epic. The chorus explodes and is really catchy. It is a rock anthem that would make a wonderful stadium anthem as well. Get the players riled up and ready to fight. Caleb’s vocals reflect everything being felt and you can feel he is ready to fight whatever comes at him. The fight is going to be brutal.

Give the song a listen and let me know what you thing. Is it a good work out song or stadium anthem, I think it will give you the drive to push hard and fast. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you all have a wonderful and Happy Sunday! May this song get you through whatever you are going through at the moment.

“Fight Like This”

Your time is done, I’m moving in
I’ve come to fight or lose, so go ahead and try me
You know I’ve just begun, just begun

[Chorus:]
You’ve never seen a fight like this before (Like this before)
I take you down and leave you there wanting more (More)
You’ve crossed the line that I cannot ignore (Cannot ignore)
You’ve never seen a fight like this before (Yeah)

Feel the pain, I’m raining down on you
You won’t deny my will, cause what I start I will follow through
Craving all that I can see
Making something out of me

[Chorus:]
You’ve never seen a fight like this before
I’ll take you down and leaver here wanting more, more
You’ve crossed the line that I cannot ignore, cannot ignore
You’ve never seen a fight like this before

[Chorus]
