Linkin Park - Fighting Myself (Official Audio)

When unreleased tracks from 20 years ago are better than the music of today. That just speaks to how amazing this band is. Timeless.

This is the one. This takes me back to my 13 year old self in 2003 with my Meteora CD spinning in a handheld player with headphones turned so loud it hurt staring at the ceiling. I'd continue listening to Meteora and Hybrid Theory well after my teens, I grew up with those songs from Linkin Park and understanding the words and passion in their music more and more as I grew. The impact they had on my life, and reading the countless comments under this video in so many languages show how powerful their music was and transcended not only language but culture. Thank you Linkin Park for opening up yourselves years ago and making music that would help countless people in so many ways. Each of you together created something larger than life. Thank you.

I don't think Chester ever realised how many people found safety in his voice.🖤

I don't think even Linkin Park knows how good they are.

These unreleased songs are better than today's songs.. Linkin Park is the greatest band ever to me

The fact that LP has probably hundreds of unreleased songs and years of recordings on lock-stash just excites me more as a fan. We miss you, Chester. Man, this track is a banger

I'm a 67 year old Rolling Stones fan. So, glad my sons got me hooked on Linkin Park 20+ years ago. From every angle they are as good as it gets.

"Every man dies two deaths, when he is buried in the ground and the last time someone says his name. In some ways men can be immortal." Chester and Linkin Park ARE Immortal

i don't know if i'm upset that they didn't release this song in 2003, or if i'm glad that we're getting new songs in 2023. thank you LP

[Lyrics] Now, sometimes these thoughts in my head speak so loud Every little thing that I think about just built on top of the pain and doubt Even though I wanna just let it out, I Try to act like I don’t mind it, try to keep my mouth so quiet But sittin’ there in my silence, just seems to amplify it When I thought that keepin’ this inside would make it better I never thought that I would end up ruining it forever But everytime I think, I got everything put back together I end up making more regrets, making more regrets Falling from grace, I watch it all come apart Knowing I could’ve changed it all from the start Fighting myself, I always lose Fighting myself, I always lose I didn’t want you to think I’m worn out so easily I wish I’d held it in, so you never knew what built up inside of me Now, I don’t know how it overflows, spill out unwillingly But now, everything that I learned to hate came out for you to see I don’t want you to promise you can change everything and make it better ‘Cause you can bet, I’m gonna end up ruining it forever And everytime you think, you got everything put back together I end up making more regrets, making more regrets Falling from grace, I watch it all come apart Knowing I could’ve changed it all from the start Fighting myself, I always lose Fighting myself, I always lose Falling from grace, I watch it all come apart Knowing I could’ve changed it all from the start Fighting myself, I always lose Fighting myself, I always lose I can’t run with this weight on my back I can’t see ‘cause I’m focused on the past I can’t breathe, I need to break free From the anger that is constantly inside of me I can’t run with this weight on my back I can’t see ‘cause I’m focused on the past I can’t breathe, I need to break free From the anger that is constantly inside of me Falling from grace, I watch it all come apart Knowing I could’ve changed it all from the start I can’t breathe, I need to break free From the anger that is constantly inside of me Falling from grace, I watch it all come apart Knowing I could’ve changed it all from the start I can’t breathe, I need to break free From the anger that is constantly inside of me

Don't cry he is gone... smile he was here

I was working in Alaska 2 months ago: 16 hours daily, a sleep only 4 hours, 7 days, 3 months. And it’s incredible how this song gave me so much energy. Linkin park is the history of my adolescent, and now still with me in difficult times. Linkin park is that friendly place to support you and understand you.

Lyrics: Now, sometimes these thoughts in my head speak so loud Every little thing that I think about just built on top of the pain and doubt Even though I wanna just let it out, I Try to act like I don't mind it, try to keep my mouth so quiet But sittin' there in my silence, just seems to amplify it When I thought that keepin' this inside would make it better I never thought that I would end up ruining it forever But everytime I think, I got everything put back together I end up making more regrets, making more regrets Falling from grace, I watch it all come apart Knowing I could've changed it all from the start Fighting myself, I always lose Fighting myself, I always lose I didn't want you to think I'm worn out so easily I wish I'd held it in, so you never knew what built up inside of me Now, I don't know how it overflows, spill out unwillingly But now, everything that I learned to hate came out for you to see I don't want you to promise you can change everything and make it better 'Cause you can bet, I'm gonna end up ruining it forever And everytime you think, you got everything put back together I end up making more regrets, making more regrets Falling from grace, I watch it all come apart Knowing I could've changed it all from the start Fighting myself, I always lose Fighting myself, I always lose Falling from grace, I watch it all come apart Knowing I could've changed it all from the start Fighting myself, I always lose Fighting myself, I always lose I can't run with this weight on my back I can't see 'cause I'm focused on the past I can't breathe, I need to break free From the anger that is constantly inside of me I can't run with this weight on my back I can't see 'cause I'm focused on the past I can't breathe, I need to break free From the anger that is constantly inside of me Falling from grace, I watch it all come apart Knowing I could've changed it all from the start I can't breathe, I need to break free From the anger that is constantly inside of me Falling from grace, I watch it all come apart Knowing I could've changed it all from the start I can't breathe, I need to break free From the anger that is constantly inside of me

There’s something so visceral about hearing a song you never heard before that was going to be on one of your most cherished albums from childhood. It’s like accessing a deleted scene from your life

Thank you for releasing this instead of keeping it locked away. This is so good and what the OG LP fans miss the most. This is Chester's legacy and we all love him for it.

Now, sometimes these thoughts in my head speak so loud Every little thing that I think about Just builds on top of the pain and doubt Even though I wanna just let it out I try to act like I don't mind it, try to keep my mouth so quiet But sittin' there in my silence just seems to amplify it When I thought that keepin' this inside would make it better I never thought that I would end up ruining it forever But every time I think I got everything put back together I end up making more regrets, making more regrets Falling from grace, I watch it all come apart Knowing I could've changed it all from the start Fighting myself, I always lose Fighting myself, I always lose I didn't want you to think I'm worn out so easily I wish I'd held it in so you never knew what built up inside of me Now I don't know how it overflows, spilled out unwillingly But now everything that I learned to hate came out for you to see I don't want you to promise you can change everything and make it better 'Cause you can bet I'm gonna end up ruining it forever And every time you think you got everything put back together I end up making more regrets, making more regrets Falling from grace, I watch it all come apart Knowing I could've changed it all from the start Fighting myself, I always lose Fighting myself, I always lose I can't run with this weight on my back I can't see 'cause I'm focused on the past I can't breathe, I need to break free From the anger that is constantly inside me Falling from grace, I watch it all come apart Knowing I could've changed it all from the start I can't breathe, I need to break free From the anger that is constantly inside of me Falling from grace, I watch it all come apart Knowing I could've changed it all from the start I can't breathe, I need to break free From the anger that is constantly inside of me

Just purely scrolling through the comments, the range of languages show the amazing impact this band had internationally. And the impact they continue to have. Thank you for the years of music. Thank you for opening the vaults and allowing us to hear the band once again on songs we’d never heard before. And just overall thank you.

I don't think any of us in 2023 thought we'd hear a new song from Linkin Park with Chester in it. This is simply amazing and I hope they find more songs in the archives. RIP Chester.

I feel like this group was truly created for introverts. Let's be honest here for a minute. Introverts feel on a level that extroverts will never have an understanding of. I'm 36 and I've been listening to LP for over 20 years, and I have YET to meet an extrovert that has felt this music on a level anywhere close to what we introverts feel. This band/group is almost literally our anthem. We've been feeling something from them on a level that makes us feel so alive and makes us feel emotions that we don't normally get on a day to day basis that we crave. We're always looking for something that makes us feel deeply and it's like we've found a home here. Those of us that have been here since the beginning have had the honor of this insane level of music for the way we feel that most generations don't normally get, or at least on a level that only we ourselves understand. Tyler, or anyone from LP, if literally any of you read this, I just want you to know that you literally made an entire generation of kids/teens feel like they actually belonged to something, and we are eternally grateful for all of you.

I would like to point that Linkin park has fans from all over the world, I'm Moroccan and I've been listening to linkin park since my teenage days, around 12y old, I am 29y old now, and Linkin Park is still my favorite band... lots of respects to this band breaking all bouderies and frontiers, what's more interesting is that I totally relate to all the lyrics despite the huge immense cultural rift. Thank you.
