It's Time
Imagine Dragons (Cover) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So this is what you meant
When you said that you were spent
And now it's time to build from the bottom of the pit, right to the top
Don't hold back
Packing my bags and giving the Academy a rain check

I don't ever want to let you down
I don't ever want to leave this town
'Cause after all
This city never sleeps at night

It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am

So this is where you fell
And I am left to sell
The path to heaven runs through miles of clouded hell right to the top
Don't look back
Turning to rags and giving the commodities a rain check

I don't ever want to let you down
I don't ever want to leave this town
'Cause after all
This city never sleeps at night

It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am

It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am

This road never looked so lonely
This house doesn't burn down slowly
To ashes
To ashes

It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am

It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was




Now don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am

Overall Meaning

The overall theme of "It's Time" is one of rebuilding and moving forward even when life gets tough. The first verse talks about how the singer's partner is feeling spent and the need to start building from the bottom of the pit to the top. The singer is ready to make strides and not hold back, even packing their bags to do so. The chorus states that the singer doesn't want to let their partner down and doesn't want to leave the city because it never sleeps. The second verse reflects on the past and how the singer has sold the path to heaven through miles of clouded hell, but is ready to move forward and not look back. The chorus repeats, emphasizing that the singer is never changing who they are, even as they continue to grow.


Line by Line Meaning

So this is what you meant
Now I understand your previous message


When you said that you were spent
When you said you were exhausted and had given all your energy


And now it's time to build from the bottom of the pit, right to the top
Now it's time to start rebuilding from scratch and work our way up


Don't hold back
Don't hesitate or restrain yourself


Packing my bags and giving the Academy a rain check
I'm packing my things and cancelling my plans with the Academy


I don't ever want to let you down
I never want to disappoint you


I don't ever want to leave this town
I never want to depart from this place


'Cause after all
Because in the end


This city never sleeps at night
This city is always active and awake, even during nighttime


It's time to begin, isn't it?
It's time to start, don't you agree?


I get a little bit bigger but then I'll admit
I'm growing and evolving, but I acknowledge my past self


I'm just the same as I was
I'm fundamentally the same person


Now don't you understand
Don't you comprehend now?


I'm never changing who I am
I'll always be true to myself


So this is where you fell
This is where you stumbled and struggled


And I am left to sell
And I'm left to promote and market


The path to heaven runs through miles of clouded hell right to the top
The journey to the top is difficult and challenging, but we must persist


Don't look back
Don't dwell on the past


Turning to rags and giving the commodities a rain check
Becoming impoverished and cancelling luxury purchases


This road never looked so lonely
This journey has never seemed so solitary


This house doesn't burn down slowly
This decline is happening rapidly


To ashes
To destruction

@cayden3470

Let's be honest, this wasn't recommended... you came here on purpose.




Good luck in 2020.

If you're reading this then you've made it. Sorry to say but it doesn't look like 2021 is going to be any better. Let's hope I'm wrong.

Oh, and thanks for the likes. See you on the flip side (2022).



@dabluehuman

So, this is what you meant?
When you said that you were spent
And now it's time to build from the bottom of the pit
Right to the top
Don't hold back
Packing my bags and giving the academy a rain-check

I don't ever wanna let you down
I don't ever wanna leave this town
'Cause after all
This city never sleeps at night

It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am

So this is where you fell
And I am left to sell
The path to heaven runs through miles of clouded hell
Right to the top
Don't look back
Turning to rags and giving the commodities a rain-check

I don't ever wanna let you down
I don't ever wanna leave this town
'Cause after all
This city never sleeps at night

It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am
It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am

This road never looked so lonely
This house doesn't burn down slowly
To ashes, to ashes

It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am
It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am
