Alive is a song by American rock band P.O.D., released in 2001 as the lead single from their album Satellite. The track became one of the band's best-known songs, with its anthemic chorus built around feeling alive for the first time. Short clips of that chorus later circulated as a motivational sound on soundboards and in video edits, where the vocal line works as shorthand for energy and renewal. It endures because the message is simple and the delivery is immediate, fitting comebacks, training montages and uplifting moments without needing any explanation.
