When you or your music is judged...

This is all over the place but trust me its worth reading.

Personally I don't think people have a right to hate on your taste in music. It shouldn't matter to them what you listen to or how you express yourself just because you're different from them. Like if you listen to "Scremo" or heavy metal and people call it devil music and make it out to be something its not is stupid. If they take the time to listen to the lyrics they would realize that the lyrics are better than pop music now days. The lyrics to the songs have meaning and are about real things that people go through and are struggling with. They aren't about trying to get laid or money or stupid things like that. If your music is easy to relate to listen to it don't let anyone judge you for it. Some bands that I listen to have stopped people from killing themselves or have stopped them from self harm. That is what music should be doing in my opinion. It should be helping people. If it stops you from cutting then you keep listening to that music if it helps you get away from everything keep listening to it. Because that's should be why people make music not for fame not because they want to have music out there but because they want to help people. Some people that judge you for that have no right to because they don't know what you go through at home or at school. If you relate to anything that I just typed I have been and I am going through the same things I know how it feels you're not alone on this I promise you that.

Black Veil Brides have been around since 2006 and are still tour around the world. They have released 3 albums and each of them have a different sound and amazing lyrics. They wear body paint and make up like Kiss and Motley Crue. Some people will tell you that Black Veil Brides are a heavy metal band and that they're music is a bad influence when it really isn't. The lyrics in their songs are  absolutely amazing and inspiring because they are easy to relate to.   Honestly, I love Black Veil Brides and I think everyone should check them out because they could have a song you can relate to in some kind of way.

Their song In The End
