This Time's For Real
Ill Niño Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Why
Do you tell me all these lies?
I just wanna live my life
I don't want to leave my dreams behind
Tell me why
My patience's getting shorter
I'm running out of time and I hope that I get what I wanted
This time's for real
Is there anything I wanted?
Is there anything I needed?
Anything at all?
This time's for real
Is there anything I wanted?
Is there anything I needed?
Anything at all?
Why
Do you make me feel denied?
Always pushing me aside
You do not decide what's wrong or right
Tell me why
Am I feeling so much pressure?
Am I searching for the answer?
I'm running out of time and I hope that I get what I wanted
This time's for real
Is there anything I wanted?
Is there anything I needed?
Anything at all?
This time's for real
Is there anything I wanted?
Is there anything I needed?
Anything at all?
This time's for real
Is there anything I wanted?
Is there anything I needed?
Anything at all?
This time's for real
Is there anything I wanted?
Is there anything I needed?
Anything at all?
Is there anything I wanted?
Is there anything I needed?
Anything at all?
The lyrics to "This Time's For Real" by Ill Niño capture the frustration and angst of someone who feels trapped and unfulfilled. The singer is questioning why they are being lied to, why they feel denied, and why they are running out of time to achieve their dreams. They are tired of being pushed aside and want the freedom to live their life and pursue their desires. The repeated refrain of "This time's for real, is there anything I wanted? Is there anything I needed? Anything at all?" emphasizes the yearning for validation and success. The singer is seeking clarity and hoping that, this time, their efforts will pay off.
Overall, the song is about the struggle to find purpose and meaning in life. The lyrics suggest that the singer feels like they are on the verge of a breakthrough, but they are unsure if their aspirations are achievable. They are grappling with self-doubt and wondering if their desires are unrealistic. The repetition of "anything at all?" underscores the insecurity and anxiety that the singer is experiencing, as they try to determine if their goals are worth pursuing.

"Esta vez es verdad"
¿Por qué me dices todas estas mentiras?
Sólo quiero vivir mi vida
No quiero dejar mis sueños atrás
Dime
¿Por qué sólo estoy envejeciendo?
Mi paciencia se está acabando
Estoy corriendo fuera de tiempo
Y espero conseguir lo que quiero
Esta vez es verdad
¿Hay algo que haya querido?
¿Hay algo que haya necesitado?
¿Sea lo que sea?
Esta vez es verdad
¿Hay algo que haya querido?
¿Hay algo que haya necesitado?
¿Sea lo que sea?
¿Por qué me haces sentir negado?
Siempre me estás apartando
Tu no decides lo que está mal o bien
Dime
¿Por qué estoy sintiendo tanta presión?
¿Estoy buscando la respuesta?
Estoy corriendo fuera de tiempo
Y espero conseguir lo que quiero.

Make Nu Metal great again!
Jorge House
The Tito TV Show that would be awesome
Torsten Scholz
Bring back the music of the 90s and early to mid-2000s! Nu metal, pop punk, emo, grunge. This was real music, unlike today's soulless edm-autotune-hip-hop crap.

So many others while I miss old school there are plenty of new school carrying the torch and we still have a KoRn Slipknot kinda have a Nu vibe especially on their new album
Corte é arte
A única coisa que me deixa triste é que nunca mais terá uma banda como essa ( 2018 )
