Creed is an American rock band from Tallahassee, Florida formed in 1994. Creed was prominent in the post-grunge movement of the late 1990s and early 2000s, releasing three consecutive multi-platinum albums; their second, Human Clay (1999), received diamond (11x platinum) certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Creed has sold over 28 million records in the United States, has sold over 53 million albums worldwide, and was the ninth best-selling musical act of the 2000s.
For most of its existence, the band has consisted of lead vocalist Scott Stapp, guitarist and vocalist Mark Tremonti, bassist Brian Marshall, and drummer Scott Phillips. Creed's first two studio albums, My Own Prison (1997) and Human Clay (1999), were released to commercial success despite unfavorable critical reception; Marshall left the band in 2000. Human Clay remains one of the best-selling albums of all time and contained the Billboard Hot 100 number one single "With Arms Wide Open"โwhich also won a Grammy Award for Best Rock Song. The band's third album, Weathered, was released in 2001, with Tremonti on bass guitar. Creed disbanded in 2004; Stapp pursued a solo career while Tremonti, Marshall, and Phillips founded the band Alter Bridge with Myles Kennedy.
Creed reunited in 2009, releasing their fourth album Full Circle and performing several tours before separating again in 2012. After an eleven-year hiatus, Creed reunited once more in July 2023 and announced their headlining of the Summer of '99 cruise festival in April 2024.

2. Creed was formed in 1977 by vocalist Steve Ingle and guitarist Luther Maben. Enlisting the services of Hal Butler (keyboards), James Flynn (bass), and Chip Thomas (drums), they were soon signed by Asylum Records. Their self-titled debut appeared in 1978 and was notable for "Time and Time Again," an epic southern-style guitar workout, comparable in stature to Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Freebird." Unable to attract enough media attention, the band split up shortly after the album's release.

3. There is also a German Christian metal band called Creed. They have released at least one album called "Sign of Victory" on the Pure Metal label in 1992.
Kryptonite
Creed Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To ease my troubled mind
I left my body laying somewhere
In the sands of time
I watched the world float
To the dark side of the moon
I feel there is nothing I can do, yeah
I watched the world float
After all I knew it had to be
Something to do with you
I really don't mind what happens now and then
As long as you'll be my friend at the end
If I go crazy then will you still
Call me superman
If I'm alive and well, will you be
There holding my hand
Ill keep you by my side
With my superhuman I ain't
Kryptonite
You called me strong, you called me weak,
But still your secrets I will keep
You took for granted all the times
I never let you down
You stumbled in and bumped your head,
If not for me then you would be dead
I picked you up and put you back
On solid ground
If I go crazy then will you still
Call me superman
If I'm alive and well,
Will you be there holding my hand
Ill keep you by my side
With my superhuman I ain't
Kryptonite
Yeah!!
If I go crazy then will you still
Call me superman
If I'm alive and well, will you be there
Holding my hand
Ill keep you by my side
With my superhuman I ain't
Kryptonite
The lyrics of Creed's song "Kryptoniteโ speaks about a person who has been hurt and needs to escape from the world to get some peace. The singer explains that they took a walk around the world to ease their troubled mind and left their body behind. However, while taking their walk, they noticed that something was wrong with the world as darkness had taken over it. They feel powerless to do anything about it, but they know that it has something to do with the person who hurt them. Despite feeling lost and helpless, they know that they have a friend who will stand by them through any situation. The repeated asking of "will you still call me Superman?" is not just a reference to Clark Kent's alter ego, but to the idea that even when someone is at their weakest, they still want to be seen as strong and capable. The singer knows that they are not superhuman, but with their friend's support, they can overcome anything.
The lyrics also touch on the theme of friendship and loyalty. The singer seems to have been taken for granted by their friend, but despite that, they still promise to keep their friendโs secrets and support them even if they go crazy. The chorus repeats the question of whether or not their friend will still call them Superman if they go insane. This suggests that they still want their friend to see them as the strong protector they've always been, regardless of any mental or physical struggles they may face. The lyrics of "Kryptonite" speak of the importance of having someone who will always stand by your side and see you as the hero you may not see in yourself.

I separated from my physical form while journeying.
In the sands of time
In the history of the past, present, and future.
I watched the world float
I observed the earth as it rotates.
To the dark side of the moon
To the shadowy and mysterious side of existence.
I feel there is nothing I can do, yeah
I sense futility in attempting to alter the course of events.
After all I knew it had to be
Despite initially being uncertain, I finally realized the reason for my distress.
Something to do with you
You were the source of my inner turbulence.
I really don't mind what happens now and then
I am indifferent to occasional events or outcomes.

Kryptonite
You are the one thing that could weaken and destroy me.
You called me strong, you called me weak,
You have fluctuated in your perception of my abilities.
But still your secrets I will keep
I will remain trustworthy and leave your personal affairs undisclosed.
You took for granted all the times
You overlooked and underappreciated the occasions where I helped you.
I never let you down
I have always been dependable and reliable.
You stumbled in and bumped your head,
You encountered a misfortune and hurt yourself.
If not for me then you would be dead
If I was not there to assist, the injury could have been fatal.
I picked you up and put you back
I aided in returning you to stability and strength.
On solid ground
On a stable and secure foundation.
