This Is It
Gangsta L. Crisis Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Fuck yeah

I find it hard to believe
That my mind could be free
I've always known that i'm trapped inside

At this point i should know
How to turn them down low
The screaming in my heads untamed

I should have known that id be back at it again
I cant believe in what i see its all mirages in the end

I know ill never believe
That my mind could be free
Cause ill never be in control

This is war
This is war
Inside myself i can overcome
This is a war
My fucking war
I live inside a cage my mind has made
And i know i was meant to survive
And i know i was meant to survive

My insanity has become my reality
Which voices are real?
I cannot even tell anymore

There are voices in the walls
But im never sure whats real
Why you gotta force me to see that
Everything is a fucking lie

Pull the trigger, pop the pill, and break the skin
Pull the trigger, pop the pill, and break the skin and bleed again
Pull the trigger, pop the pill, and break the skin
Pull the trigger, pop the pill, and break the skin and bleed again

Whatcha gonna do?
Whatcha gonna do?
Whatcha gonna do?
Break the skin?
Whatcha gonna do?
Whatcha gonna do?
Whatcha gonna do?
Bleed again?

This is war
This is war
Inside myself i can overcome
This is a war
My fucking war
I live inside a cage my mind has made
And i know i was meant to survive
And i know i was meant to survive

Wack, Schizo, Psycho and Nuts
Call me whatever i don't give a fuck

Wack, Schizo, Psycho and Nuts
Call me whatever i don't give a fuck
Wack, Schizo, Psycho and Nuts
Call me whatever i don't give a fuck

This is war
This is war
Inside myself i can overcome

This is war
This is war
Inside myself i can overcome
This is a war
My fucking war
I live inside a cage my mind has made
And i know i was meant to survive
And i know i was meant to survive




And i know i was meant to survive
And i know i was meant to survive
