Black Clouds
Twiztid Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They caught him dealin with this, people concealin their real fears
Now they got me reelin and spinnin a million circles of whirlwind
It's out of control and I can't believe that I just won't let it go
I'm bout to explode, or corrode from this road that I've chosen
Who knows if it goes to the heart of the soul of a friend or a foe
Is it light, Is it dark, Is it real, is it for?
You're a monster hiding in sight of a black cloud
And you hate me for where I'm from
And I'm never goin back down
You're just goin through the emotions, yellin shit to be loud
I'm too focused on the potion to be concerned with all that now
So please do us all a favor and quit hovering over our's
We're all too focused on the potion to be concerned with all that now
So please do us all a favor and quit hovering
Turn up the madness
And make everything fall away
Fall a victim to sadness
And it's all goin crazy for me
Break these black clouds in half for me
Whenever the world gets [beat/me] down, I feel beat down
Need a release now, they've got me inner [peace/beast] out
I try to rebound, everything goes down
Feel like I'm diseased, how can they get the cold out?
I took my soul out and put it back in
And said If I'm not a loser then why do I never win?
Turn up the madness
And make everything fall away
Fall a victim to sadness
And it's all goin crazy for me
Break these black clouds in half for me
The lyrics to Twiztid's song Black Clouds explores the feelings of being overwhelmed and lost. The song begins by the artist expressing that they are full of emotions and that they are dealing with people who are concealing their real fears. The chorus implies that the artist is dealing with a monster in the form of a black cloud that represents self-loathing and backstabbing. The character seems to be lost in their thoughts, questioning whether what they are experiencing is real or not. They feel like they are about to explode or corrode from the path that they’ve chosen.
In the second verse, the artist continues to express their battle with feelings of sadness and depression. They are irritable and feel like they are being pulled in different directions. They feel diseased and need to release their inner beast. They ask why they can’t win if they are not a loser. In the end, the artist pleads for people to leave them alone as they are focused on their own potion, their own healing process.
Overall, the song is a deep and vividly expressive exploration of emotions like sadness, confusion, loss, depression, and the struggles of the artist to deal with them.

I'm up to the ceiling with feelin
I am overwhelmed with emotions
They caught him dealin with this, people concealin their real fears
Someone got caught doing something wrong and people are hiding their true fears
Now they got me reelin and spinnin a million circles of whirlwind
I am spiraling out of control
It's out of control and I can't believe that I just won't let it go
Things are spiraling out of control and I don't know how to stop it
I'm bout to explode, or corrode from this road that I've chosen
I feel like I am going to explode or break down because of the path I have chosen
Who knows if it goes to the heart of the soul of a friend or a foe
I don't know if my problems involve a friend or an enemy
Is it light, Is it dark, Is it real, is it for?
I am questioning the reality and validity of my problems
You're a monster hiding in sight of a black cloud
You are a terrible person hiding in plain sight
Shrouded in self loathing, backstabbing the crowd
You are consumed by self-hatred and betraying those around you
And you hate me for where I'm from
You dislike me because of my background
And I'm never goin back down
I am not going to give up or back down from this situation
You're just goin through the emotions, yellin shit to be loud
You are not genuinely feeling anything, you are just trying to be loud and noticeable
I'm too focused on the potion to be concerned with all that now
I am too focused on finding a solution to my problems to worry about your behavior
So please do us all a favor and quit hovering over our's
Please stop bothering us and our problems
Turn up the madness
I want to be consumed by chaos
And make everything fall away
I want all of my problems to disappear
Fall a victim to sadness
I am overwhelmed by sadness
And it's all goin crazy for me
Everything is becoming chaotic and distressing
Break these black clouds in half for me
I want my problems to be solved or resolved
Whenever the world gets [beat/me] down, I feel beat down
When things get tough, I feel defeated
Need a release now, they've got me inner [peace/beast] out
I need an outlet to feel at peace or I am becoming agitated
I try to rebound, everything goes down
I try to get back up from my problems, but everything just keeps getting worse
Feel like I'm diseased, how can they get the cold out?
I feel like I have a problem that is impossible to fix
I took my soul out and put it back in
I am trying to find myself again and rediscover who I am
And said If I'm not a loser then why do I never win?
I am questioning my own abilities and why I never seem to come out on top

Twiztid definitely has no idea how much their music has helped me in life.. I've loved these guys since they signed with PSYCHOPATHIC.. but I love that they finally broke FREE and did their own thing.. now they have total freedom to do whatever they want and I love it! I'm proud to say that I still, after all those years, am in love with their music and them as human beings! After my daughter passed away, I didn't think I had shit left to live for.. Their music literally saved my life. And I am and always will be, forever grateful to these guys! Meeting them in person down in Pittsburgh was probably one of the best days of my life.. they are so humble and truly love the music and their fans! I will always rock MNE.. BUT TWIZTID ESPECIALLY!!!
@Ford-dc9mu
I'm glad I'm not the only one that feels like this. Twiztid has gotten me through the darkest lowest time in life. They are my daily inspiration to keep driving forward for myself my family and people that say they care for me. I have terrible anxiety and depression twiztid keeps me fighting I struggle with weight loss twiztid keeps me pushing between ups and downs their music and their interviews keeps me pushing. You're not alone with your feelings I'm with you all the way.
