Pennywise
Josh A Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah, they used to laugh at me but
Who the fuck is laughing now?
From the trenches
I've returned again to drag
You through the ground fear me, fear me
Hear me whisper in the night
Too late, too late, bitch
I got you in my sight

So apocalyptic, my flow sadistic
Wanna stop, dark thoughts been so addicted
Hearing voices telling me to kill them all
Came right back, now I'm ready to brawl
Watching them run when I'm hitting the scene
Bringing itch, better believe
What you gonna do when the
Dark thoughts follow you?
Better off dead, now we all float too
Like yuh, hundred-five visions of death
Scared of what might happens next
Talk up the side of your neck
Might have to pump you with lead
Bitch, I'm possessed want it so much
Gonna think I signed to Satan
Handed over my soul, my ship is vacant
So my fans are the coal
Like a bunch of pagans
Gonna bring in the days when he awakens, yuh

Watch 'em running for their life now
We've been making tracks like every day
It's sounding nice now
Yeah, we're 'bout to take over the game
We're plotting right now
Sick of all these idiots, about
To change their minds now, yuh

Yeah, they used to laugh at me but
Who the fuck is laughing now?
From the trenches
I've returned again to drag
You through the ground fear me, fear me
Hear me whisper in the night
Too late, too late, bitch
I got you in my sight

They say we all float in the dark place
Where we all go
Walls closed with my jaw sewed
I'm a lost soul
Seal me up and throw me under
Drown under the rolling thunder
Rain floods in the drain, it's just
Like blood through my veins
Drip off my fingertips
Rip the stitches off my lips
So I can breathe again
I fill my lungs with cold air
Hit's my tongue, a cold stare with a grin
Evil has risen
Again demons with angelic presence
Serpents break the surface

Watch 'em running for their life now
We've been making tracks like every day
It's sounding nice now
Yeah, we're 'bout to take over the
Game we're plotting right now
Sick of all these idiots about
To change their minds now, yuh

Yeah, they used to laugh at me but
Who the fuck is laughing now?
From the trenches
I've returned again to drag
You through the ground fear me, fear me
Hear me whisper in the night
Too late, too late, bitch
I got you in my sight
Yeah, they used to laugh at me but
Who the fuck is laughing now?
From the trenches
I've returned again to drag
You through the ground fear me, fear me
Hear me whisper in the night
Too late, too late, bitch
I got you in my sight

Watch 'em running for their life now
We've been making tracks like every day
It's sounding nice now
Yeah, we're 'bout to take over the
Game we're plotting right now




Sick of all these idiots about to
Change their minds now, yuh, yuh

Line by Line Meaning

Yeah, they used to laugh at me but
In the past, people would mock and ridicule me, but


Who the fuck is laughing now?
Now, I am in a position of power and success, and those same people who once mocked me are no longer laughing.


From the trenches
Emerging from a place of struggle and hardship


I've returned again to drag
I have come back with determination and strength to forcefully bring


You through the ground fear me, fear me
You down to the depths, instilling fear and intimidation


Hear me whisper in the night
Listen to my voice, which is haunting and unsettling, during the dark hours


Too late, too late, bitch
By the time you realize the danger you're in, it will already be too late, and you will be left in regret


I got you in my sight
I have targeted you and have complete control over your fate


So apocalyptic, my flow sadistic
My style and delivery are reminiscent of a doomsday scenario, filled with cruelty and pain


Wanna stop, dark thoughts been so addicted
Despite wanting to overcome my dark thoughts, I have become consumed and reliant on them


Hearing voices telling me to kill them all
I am plagued by internal voices urging me to commit acts of violence and destruction


Came right back, now I'm ready to brawl
Despite setbacks, I have returned stronger than ever and prepared for conflict


Watching them run when I'm hitting the scene
Observing those who oppose me fleeing in fear when I enter the situation


Bringing itch, better believe
Causing unease and discomfort, it's a guarantee


What you gonna do when the
How will you react when


Dark thoughts follow you?
My negative and destructive thoughts haunt and pursue you?


Better off dead, now we all float too
It would be preferable for you to be deceased, and just like in the movie 'It,' we will all float together in a dark and twisted realm


Like yuh, hundred-five visions of death
Like, yeah, there are countless gruesome and deadly scenarios playing out in my mind


Scared of what might happens next
Filled with fear and trepidation regarding what horrors could occur in the future


Talk up the side of your neck
Speaking boldly and arrogantly without thinking of the consequences


Might have to pump you with lead
I may be forced to shoot you with bullets


Bitch, I'm possessed want it so much
I am completely influenced and controlled by evil forces, desiring it intensely


Gonna think I signed to Satan
People will believe I have made a pact with the devil


Handed over my soul, my ship is vacant
I have willingly given up my soul, thus leaving me empty and devoid of morality


So my fans are the coal
My loyal supporters provide the fuel and energy for my dark and destructive actions


Like a bunch of pagans
Similar to a group of worshippers with non-traditional beliefs, my fans follow me devotedly


Gonna bring in the days when he awakens, yuh
I will contribute to summoning the arrival of a malevolent entity, with a sense of triumph


Watch 'em running for their life now
Observe them fleeing in terror, desperately trying to escape their impending doom


We've been making tracks like every day
We have been consistently creating songs and making progress on a daily basis


It's sounding nice now
The music we produce is sounding impressive and enjoyable


Yeah, we're 'bout to take over the game
We are on the verge of dominating the music industry


We're plotting right now
We are strategizing and planning our ascent to power at this very moment


Sick of all these idiots, about
We are fed up with the foolish and ignorant individuals who are


To change their minds now, yuh
On the verge of realizing the error of their ways and altering their perspectives


They say we all float in the dark place
There is a belief that we all experience a sense of weightlessness and detachment in our darkest moments


Where we all go
This is the destination we eventually reach


Walls closed with my jaw sewed
Trapped within closed walls, my mouth stitched shut, unable to speak or express myself


I'm a lost soul
I am a forsaken and directionless entity


Seal me up and throw me under
Encase me, then cast me aside and abandon me


Drown under the rolling thunder
Suffocate and be swallowed by the overwhelming and destructive force of a storm


Rain floods in the drain, it's just
The rainwater floods the drains, symbolizing the flow of darkness and despair


Like blood through my veins
Similar to the way blood flows through my blood vessels, embodying the essence of my being


Drip off my fingertips
Emanating from my fingertips, dripping and shedding


Rip the stitches off my lips
Violently tearing apart the sutures that have sealed my mouth closed


So I can breathe again
I yearn to regain the ability to breathe freely and express myself


I fill my lungs with cold air
I inhale icy and chilling air


Hit's my tongue, a cold stare with a grin
As the cold air touches my tongue, I give a menacing gaze with a twisted smile


Evil has risen
A malevolent force has emerged and become prominent


Again demons with angelic presence
Once more, demonic entities possess a seemingly innocent and celestial exterior


Serpents break the surface
Sly and treacherous individuals come to the forefront, revealing their true nature
