At a recent sold-out concert, Scott Stapp, the frontman of the iconic rock band Creed, took a powerful stand for freedom, unity, and faith. As the band continues to enjoy a massive resurgence in popularity, selling out shows across the country, Stapp took a moment between songs to deliver a message that resonated with the crowd: It’s time for Americans to wake up and reclaim their God-given rights.
Creed, which rose to fame in the early 2000s, has long been known for its faith-based undertones, and Stapp has never shied away from sharing his Christian beliefs. At this concert, however, he took things a step further, addressing the deep polarization that has taken hold in America and urging the audience to see through the divisive tactics being used to keep the public distracted.
Stapp didn’t mince words when he spoke about the growing division in the country. “The powers that be… they want us divided. They want us separate,” he told the crowd, drawing applause from the audience. He pointed out that by keeping Americans focused on their differences, those in control are able to avoid being held accountable for their actions. “They want us in our little groups, thinking we’re right, they’re wrong… to keep us distracted from holding them accountable.”
The singer highlighted how this manipulation is used to control the general public. “They start dividing us and programming us,” he said, explaining that the elites teach people how to conform, follow, and ultimately become obedient to authority. Stapp’s message was clear: The more divided Americans are, the easier it is for the ruling class to maintain control.
Stapp went on to warn the audience about the erosion of civil liberties that is happening right before their eyes. “It’s divide and conquer,” he said, calling out the hypocrisy of leaders who claim to promote freedom while violating the rights of citizens. “Your civil rights are being violated every single minute of every single day,” he declared, reminding fans that the distractions of entertainment and consumerism are preventing people from noticing the freedoms they are losing.
His words hit home in an era where many feel overwhelmed by endless political bickering, while fundamental rights and values slip away unnoticed.
But Stapp didn’t stop at pointing out the problems. He offered a message of hope and action, urging the crowd to come together and focus on what truly matters. “The only way to make change is to wake up and come together,” he said, calling for Americans to focus on life, freedom, love, and happiness—the values that unite rather than divide.
In a passionate defense of America’s founding principles, Stapp emphasized the Christian roots of the country. “We start reminding them what our Constitution says… we are a Constitutional Republic built upon the Bible and the word of God, NOT a democracy,” he declared, sparking cheers from the crowd.
Stapp’s monologue concluded with a powerful call to action: “It’s not a fantasy that we all wake up and take back the power that was rightfully given to us. It’s our birthright.” He encouraged the audience to remember the foundational values that make America strong and to fight for them, even in the face of opposition.
The Creed frontman’s words served as a reminder that, while the challenges facing the country are great, the power to reclaim freedom lies in the hands of the people. With faith, unity, and a renewed focus on what truly matters, Stapp urged Americans to rise above the distractions and hold those in power accountable.
As Creed continues to rock the stage and inspire fans across the nation, Scott Stapp’s message stands as a rallying cry for those who believe in the importance of faith, freedom, and the enduring principles that have made America great.
