Hoods Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No we want them back. destroy, destroy you all.
I'll be ready when your fake ass falls. you're nothing.
Fashion rules your life.
You're nothing, you're nothing at all.
No heart, no mind. I'll give you no respect.
No heart. you're nothing in my mind. no heart, no mind.
You're true. we'll see in time. this time.
Tell me why your fashion means nothing.
Not this time. this time.
What happened to your heart?
So much we had before.
Fashion rules your life, not your heart.
All those years of sincerity. well I still have mine.
As for you, I'll tear you apart.
The lyrics of Hoods's song "This Time" are a critique of the fashion-obsessed culture and the loss of sincerity that comes along with it. The first line, "All those years of sincerity lost," implies that people have prioritized fashion over sincerity, which is something that they regret now. They want to take back the sincerity they have missed out on by destroying everything that has led to this point.
The lyrics continue to express the singer's disdain for those who live their lives based on fashion, calling them "fake ass" and "nothing." They are seen as having no heart or mind because they are so consumed by the trend of the moment. The singer refuses to give them any respect because they are not genuine.
The chorus shifts to a more positive note, acknowledging those who are true and have not been consumed by the fashion culture. The line "You're true. We'll see in time. This time," shows that there are still people who are sincere and true, and that they will stand out in the chaos of the fashion-obsessed society.
Overall, "This Time" is a powerful commentary on society's obsession with fashion and the loss of sincerity and respect that comes with it. The song urges people to prioritize their hearts and minds over trends and materialism.
