Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Look
What’s happenin
It like the whole world
Comin to a tragic end
It’s like the world
Comin to a tragic end
It’s like the world
Seen it all coming again
Look
What’s happenin
It like the whole world
Comin to a tragic end
It’s like the world
Comin to a tragic end
It’s like the world
Seen it all coming again
They watchin the time
They see the demise
They running inside
Too late
For the odd
Future
We living in it
No closer to god
Too lazy to get it done
They taking our jobs
Robbing all of the peters
And killin the Paul’s
Susie ain’t tough enough
Replacing the bod
Revolution is here
Should they televise
I don’t think you would watch it
Cuz it’s filled with lies
Somebody pick up a phone
Who you gonna call
Ghostbusters is gone
Leaving us to die
Gun don’t even work
Cuz they broke inside
Computers is all black
They missing a drive
All we want is to live
Releasing our pride
All we want is to live
Releasing our pride
All we want is to live
Just before we die
All we want is to live
Releasing our pride
Look
What’s happenin
It like the whole world
Comin to a tragic end
It’s like the world
Comin to a tragic end
It’s like the world
Seen it all coming again
Look
What’s happenin
It like the whole world
Comin to a tragic end
It’s like the world
Comin to a tragic end
It’s like the world
Seen it all coming again
They seein the tears
Controlling the fear
Somebody out of the crowd
Just gave it a cheer
Hate of the own kind
Coming from a peer
Jump in holy water
See the end is near
Apocalyptic Roberts
On a frontier
Climbing over the wall
Just to leave here
Families broken up
Children left behind
Three strikes is the rule
For the color blind
Shoot up ya education
For the colored mind
Laughing at at an assault
While you online
Tell me what you envision
Thru a 3rd
If all we seein is death
From a birds eye
All we want is to live
Releasing our pride
All we want is to live
Releasing our pride
All we want is to live
Just before we die
All we want is to live
Releasing our pride
Look
What’s happenin
It like the whole world
Comin to a tragic end
It’s like the world
Comin to a tragic end
It’s like the world
Seen it all coming again
Look
What’s happenin
It like the whole world
Comin to a tragic end
It’s like the world
Comin to a tragic end
It’s like the world
Seen it all coming again
Look
What’s happenin
It like the whole world
Comin to a tragic end
It’s like the world
Comin to a tragic end
It’s like the world
Seen it all coming again
Look
What’s happenin
It like the whole world
Comin to a tragic end
It’s like the world
Comin to a tragic end
It’s like the world

Comin to a tragic end




It’s like the world
Seen it all coming again

Overall Meaning

In T.I.L.A.N.'s song "Apocalypse," the lyrics paint a picture of a world that is collapsing in on itself and spiraling towards its end. The song starts by stating that the world is coming to a tragic end and everyone sees it coming. People are running inside, trying to escape the destruction, but it's too late. The future is odd, and the world is only getting further away from God. People are too lazy to get anything done, and they see their jobs being taken away from them. Violence is everywhere, and it seems like society is replacing the good for the bad. The revolution is near, but the person singing the song does not believe people would watch it because it's too full of lies.


The song then moves on to talk about how people see the end drawing near everywhere, and they try to control their fear. Hate is everywhere, and it's coming from people's peers. The song talks about families being broken apart, and children being left behind. Society has established unfair rules that only affect the color-blind. The singer calls out the education system and laughs at the fact that people are being assaulted online. The song ends by saying that all people want is to live and release their pride, even though death seems to be the only thing visible from above.
