From the heart of the Midwest, For Today is a beast whose ferocity and aggression is rivaled only by its poise and focus. The band stands by the fact that “This has nothing to do with music and everything to do with our faith in Christ.”. On April 2, they released “Prevailer”. In the past week the album has risen to #47 on the Billboard 200 chart and is #2 on the Hard Music chart. If you have not already picked up the album we encourage you to. Amazon / iTunes

It’s always good to know what the artist is talking about. Here are the lyrics for Flesh and Blood:

I won’t go back the way I came
There is no turning back.
I’d walked away from everything that could save me.
I won’t go back the way I came
There is no turning back.
I once was blind, but now I see things clearly.
I’ll never see the world the same way.
The words of truth within this Man forever changed me.

Is He just flesh and blood, or is there more to the power I see?
Filled with the strength of God, but He moves and breathes as a man, just like me.
When the Spirit overcomes the flesh
You’ll see One man with power over death.

So let me die.
And let the saints rise.
With hands like mine, He turned water to wine.
Let me die.
And let the saints rise.
With hands like mine, He gave sight to the blind
And He opened up my eyes.

I won’t go back the way I came.
There is no turning back
I’d walked away from everything that could save me.
I won’t go back the way I came
There is no turning back
I once was blind, but now I see things clearly.
I’ll never see the world the same way.
The words of truth within this Man forever changed me.

Break the chains that bind me.
Flesh and blood, filled with the fire of God,
Come break the chains of my bondage.
Flesh and blood, filled with the fire of God,
Deliver us from the darkness.

How could a man like me be a man that’s so unlike me?
The words you say got me turned away from the man I might be.
My hands can build, but your hands can create.
My hands can help, but your hands can save.

I won’t go back the way I came
There is no turning back.
I’d walked away from everything that could save me.
I won’t go back the way I came
There is no turning back.
I once was blind, but now I see things clearly.
I’ll never see the world the same way.
The words of truth within this Man forever changed me.

The blind will see flesh and blood, filled with the fire of God.
Come break the chains of my bondage.
Flesh and blood, filled with the fire of God,
Deliver us from the darkness.
