Songfacts®:

  • Agnostic Front lead singer Roger Miret wrote the lyrics to this song to celebrate their friends who came up with them in the '80s hardcore scene in New York City, including many who have passed away. "It was a dedication for them and for our current family," he said in his Songfacts interview. "Just to let them know they will always be with us in our hearts."
  • According to Miret, this song was nearly left off the record - he had to fight for it to get it included.
  • Members of Agnostic Front's "family" appear the video, which was directed by Ian McFarland and Mike Pecci, who also did the band's video for "Addiction" as well as Killswitch Engage's "In Due Time" and "Always."

    Members of Hatebreed, Rancid, Madball and Brutal Truth all appear in the clip.
