Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Who are you to dictate what i do
Who are you to say I'm crazy
When your crazy too
Who are you to do those things you do to me
You don't judge yourself
So bitch stop judging me
You're crazy too
Crazy too
Crazy
So so fucking crazy

The definition of crazy is mentally deranged
But only if manifested in an aggressive way
I regretfully inform you I feel this everyday
But I thought I was among many
Who expected it to change
So I ask you again
And give it to me straight
Am I as crazy as they think I am
As fucked up as I thought
I need a second opinion on why I cant get off the floor
And why these drugs that Im takin
Don't do shit anymore

Why no one gets what Im sayin
Why I met satan in person
And he told me I'm worthless
That I might as well die and do the whole world a service
Because I don't have a purpose
So I wont leave behind a legacy
Just shit that I purchased
But Im aloud to feel crazy without you locking me up
This is why we don't speak
No one really gives a fuck
They just lock you up good
And throw away the key
Left to fend for yourself
Aimlessly

These chapters are getting darker and i know that
But i cant just rip out pages
Change the facts of the past
Fading to black to fast
Hands are shaking
Wishing I could turn back
Ill fucking stab you if you ever cross my path again
Ill end you so sadistically
And feed the pieces to the demons you created
In the sickest way that you could
You know I wont feel a thing but i might begin to sing
Cause the idea of you dead makes me feel so good

Who are you to dictate what I do
Who are you to say Im crazy
When your crazy too
Who are you to do those things you do to me
You don't judge yourself
So bitch stop judging me
You're crazy too
Crazy too
Crazy
So so fucking crazy

Feels like Im on lockdown
And I don't know why
I told you Im not crazy
But Im still stuck inside
Why wont you let me out
Just open up and let me go




I wasn't even suppose to be here
Please let me go home

Overall Meaning

SkyDxddy's "Asylum" is a song that delves deep into the concept of mental health and the misconceptions surrounding it. The lyrics question the judgment and label of individuals as "crazy" and explores the idea that everyone at some point in their lives may experience feelings that are perceived as such. The song challenges societal norms and the confinement of individuals in mental institutions, where they are left to fend for themselves without proper support and care.


The first verse begins with the question of who has the right to dictate what one does and judge them as crazy. The lyrics point out that even the person judging may also have their own flaws and struggles with mental health. The chorus emphasizes the idea that anyone can experience feelings of madness, and thus the label of "crazy" should not be used to confine or label an individual. The second verse explores the struggle of mental health and the isolation that often accompanies it. SkyDxddy questions if they are really as crazy as others see them and wonders why they are unable to receive the proper support and care they need. The lyrics also touch upon drug use as a coping mechanism and the feeling of hopelessness.


The final verse takes a darker turn, delving into violent thoughts and feelings of revenge towards those who have inflicted pain upon the individual in the past. The lyrics express the desire to be free from the confinement and isolation that mental health can bring. The final plea to be let go home is a cry for help and a call for understanding.


Overall, "Asylum" serves as a powerful commentary on mental health stigma and the need for better support and resources for those struggling with mental illness.

I love how you used Alice in Wonderland for this and I always admire how much passion you put into your words, writing and speaking them! Keep shining your light and telling your story!! ๐Ÿ’–

@Emmie1223

alice in wonderland syndrome

@Anemonol

Agreed. Her work is real. Other artist sing songs they donโ€™t understand. She understands. And you can hear that.

@Anemonol

@@Emmie1223but that is a real syndrome though. itโ€™s where a person feels they are giant then tiny due to a lack of spacial awareness. Itโ€™s very rare.

@pack899

Heard you on hate it or love it on the all out show wit Jude, so I came here and liked the song it was dope.

@RenoirThornwood

I love all your songs, wish I had this level of talent, you're way too underrated so I'mma share this to everyone I know

@GETBENT1331

time is no factor and i am running into pain
i walk about this land with the bad, men create
spoils the will is these vice versa compromise
tears flow like dumping out all the unwanted whine
give me my key to health lost i was made
dormant my sanity lost left today
right to the end of conspire got me
do never ask what i do see?

@FuckThePast1

"The thought of you dead, makes me feel so good." I'm glad I'm not the only one that feels that way!
