The singer-guitarist Valtteri Saharinen tells about the track:
“MY TRUE NEMESIS is a song about battling your own inner enemy. The narrator’s opponent isn’t some external force, but rather this internal power that takes control of their mind and life. Feelings of anger, resentment, shame, and despair are constantly churning inside throughout life, and you’re forced to deal with them if you want to move forward. The chorus, “true nemesis,” is a metaphor for this internal force, an enemy you have to face over and over again, one you can never escape.
The song has this heavy, fatalistic vibe, where the enemy is seen as inevitable, just a natural part of life. The narrator’s lyrics dig deep into the conflict between self-hatred and the struggle to accept oneself. In the final chorus, the voices in their head scream, “No way out!” – summing up the feeling that this inner enemy is tied to their fate. It’s something they can’t outrun, only learn to live with.
Musically, the track is raw and intense, perfectly mirroring the darkness in the lyrics. It drags the listener deep into the pain of the mind but also opens a door to self-reflection and acceptance. My True Nemesis is a powerful take on the inner battle and how it’s an inseparable part of being human.“
Justice Theory started as a thrash metal band in 2012. After that they have moved towards more melodic approach without forgetting their thrash metal past. Justice Theory has released around dozen singles and EPs.
