My Time
Royal Deluxe Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I wasn't in it for the gold
Don't wanna wait 'til the end of the story
To find my body lying cold
Waking up to the now or the never
Feel the walls closing in
I see the wolves, now they're circling around me
Yeah I am hungrier than them
It's the end of the line
I don't get another try
This is live or die
This is my time
This is my time
This is my time
This is my time
This is my time
Just when everyone was saying it was over
That I never stood a chance
They didn't know that they were always starting fire
And bringing life back to these hands
They're 'bout to learn that they should never try to cage me
Cause when my back's against the wall
I know that I'm the only one that'd ever save me
And I can never lose it all
No I can never lose it all
It's the end of the line
I don't get another try
This is live or die
This is my time
This is my time
This is my time
This is my time
This is my time
This is my time
This is my time
This is my time
This is my time
It's the end of the line
(It's the end of the line)
I don't get another try
(I don't get another try)
This is live or die
(This is live or die)
This is my time
This is my time
(It's the end of the line)
This is my time
(I don't get another try)
This is my time
(This is live or die)
This is my time
"My Time" by Royal Deluxe is an upbeat rock song that conveys a message of resilience and determination in the face of adversity. The lyrics make it clear that the singer is not motivated by fame, glory, or money, but instead wants to make the most of their life while they still have it. The line "Don't wanna wait 'til the end of the story, To find my body lying cold" suggests that the singer is aware of their own mortality and wants to seize the day while they still can. The chorus repeats the phrase "This is my time" multiple times, emphasizing the singer's determination to make the most of their life.
The verses go on to suggest that the singer has been through tough times and has faced doubters and detractors who said they would never make it. However, the singer has proved the doubters wrong and is now ready to take on any challenge that comes their way. The line "Just when everyone was saying it was over, That I never stood a chance" suggests that the singer has faced setbacks but has not let them define them. Instead, they have used those setbacks as motivation to keep going and to prove themselves.
Overall, "My Time" is an empowering song about seizing the moment and making the most of our lives, even in the face of adversity.
