about

This song is yet another track based on the story of MLP: A New Generation - focusing on the atrocities Sprout had committed, and his wrongdoings; both in the light of abusing his power and his severe intolerance of others not like him, or foreign to him, adding to the scope of fearmongering rooting from discrimination, lead by himself and his mother's empire of hatred for other races in Maretime Bay.

The lyrics follow some elements of perspective, giving some accounts from the likes of Hitch and Sunny Starscout, up to the final 1st-person account to draw an image of his emotions and hatred during his eleventh-hour stint as what could be seen as a jealous, power-hungry totalitarian leader. The final lyrics resolving with his regret and realisation to the senseless destruction he caused.

lyrics

you struck fear in the eyes in spite of a whole breed of pony
you pushed me out from society to teach me lessons far below me.

you're trying to get me but you don't understand,
I've got a minute to take all of my power for one last stand,
missing, finishing, within given permissions
words come out of my mouth, the whole universe fears my name

so this is what it takes to come out?
you seem so goddamn scared of something you know nothing about,
for a lifetime of fear, you think the action is clear
just take a moment to think, don't you think your sight's drawing near?

you're trying to get me but you don't understand
I've got a minute to take all of my power for one last stand
missing finishing within given permissions
words come out of my mouth, the whole universe fears my name

I will not be trampled down for dead once more,
this is my only chance to prove myself,
this is for the times you put me in the shadows,
so never again will you leave until my power's dealt!

you're trying to get me, but you don't understand,
I've got a minute to take all of my power for one last stand,
missing, finishing, within given permissions,
words come out of my mouth, the whole universe fears my name.

losing this battle, but the war isn't done,
for years being underestimated you ask me what I have become,
suffered, recovered, what I've done made the herd hurt,
I'm a discgrace in all cases I'm all of what is to blame.

Awesome album from start to finish. PW's destinctive style is present throughout, but every track is a fresh effort, and the album successfully transitions from driving rock to mellow contemplation without sounding forced or rehashed. I'm not as big of a fan of the remixes, but I appreciate their inclusion and unique perspective. Hard to ask for more than 16 tracks with no skips! theCANderson

REIMAGINE is just a really good album, all around. Each song is very good, and just has excellent energy. I'm particularly fond of Conviction (but Tempest is a great character for the style, so that's maybe no surprise). Absolutely worth a listen, and I'll have to check out more of Prince Whateverer's music. Kamani
