Apocalypse
J Lloyd Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I’m a swimmer
Drinking water
Waiting for the
Politics
All the people
All the freedom
Ready for the
Apocalypse

When we younger
Like everything
Said we’ll be there sometime today
Gotta work hard
Out of fear
Cos it could mean something to me
Tomorrow will come
Wait a minute
Tell em we’re wasting time
Get with it
You gotta run
Ready with it




Ready for the
Apocalypse

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to J Lloyd's "Apocalypse" seem to reflect on the current state of the world and its political climate. The opening lyric "I'm a swimmer, drinking water, waiting for the politics" can be interpreted as someone who is trying to survive in the current political climate. They are "drinking water" to stay alive, and "waiting for the politics" suggests that politics have become a force that individuals must be prepared to deal with.


The next few lines "All the people, all the freedom, ready for the apocalypse" suggest that all people are united in their desire for freedom, and that they are preparing themselves for the worst. The line "when we were younger, everything" suggests that there was a time when things were simpler and more carefree, but now they are complicated and chaotic.
