Fate Is Always Watching

from Valkyrie by Maestro Eternal

/

about

Though the album and the name really has nothing to do with the traditional aspect of the Valkyries, the idea of this song sprouted from the myth of the Valkyries.
In ancient Norse mythology, the Valkyries were powerful warriors that were like the grim reapers of the battle field. They would choose who lived and who died. They would also choose who would get to go to Valhalla (or Heaven). They were the embodiment of Fate. In this song, I imagine a person watching, waiting, lingering to make their move on someone who has harmed them. Like a strategic warrior on a battlefield. Being consumed by vengeance and pain.
Those silent moments when you’re alone and your thoughts are like white noise in your head. Those silent moments when you’re consumed by the stories of the past that you tell yourself, replaying them over and over and over until you have to do something about them.
In these moments is where Fate is watching. Melding that concept of the Valkyries into how a person projects blame on an offender and is going to pounce at any moment. Those moments are the deciding Fate of us all.
