Time Of Our Lives
deM atlaS Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
As people we shine
And the sun will never rise again
Washin' my
Dirty linens
Penicillin that be in 'em
Dried acrylic mono chromatics
Hard battles won
But we lost ground son
Now we back at one
In these homely trenches
With foul stenches, we fight
For inches near something
To hold onto but
I've been fighting for so long
I dunno where to go onto
A clung hard to someone
Who could to tell me better than no one
Who i was and where i came from
What i knew and if the sky
Was really blue
The river flows yet no one knows
Where it goes
The time of our Lives
As people we Shine
And the Sun will never Rise
Again
Shitty days make for some
Shitty nights the blackest lights
The saddest sights
Sad memories still seein' em vividly
Wickedly the sky's so empty
Not a drop of cloud hoping to come down
In the form of liquid admiration
Rain cleansing my blasphemy passively
Passionately kissing
Fertile ground and its apple seeds
Reality, ain't nothin to me
Nothin more than some fallacy
My calloused feet become jaggedy
Head more raggedy
No song speak tragedy
Without a tiny little shimmer of hope
Oh wait, there it goes
The time of our lives
As people we shine
And the sun will never Rise
Again
The World is made of paper it's a paper bag jar
Got two eyes that are fulla demons and it's
Heavy on my soul
The song Time Of Our Lives by deM atlaS is a reflection on the difficulties and struggles one faces throughout their lives. The lyrics depict a sense of hopelessness and confusion about the next steps in life. The chorus serves as a reminder that despite the struggles, there is a time when we all shine, but it may never happen again. The verses describe the trials and tribulations that the singer faces, including dirty linens, failed tactics, and foul stenches, which serve as metaphors for the struggles in life.
The second verse introduces feelings of depression and sadness, as the singer describes the blackest nights with sad sights and vivid memories. The line "the sky's so empty, not a drop of cloud hoping to come down" represents the emptiness and lack of hope the singer feels. However, there is a glimmer of hope in the end of the verse, with rain representing a form of cleansing and hope for the future.
Overall, the song is a reminder that life is not easy and struggles are a part of the journey, but there are moments when we shine and we should hold onto those times. It encourages the listener to keep fighting through the tough times and to not give up hope.

Washin' my
I am cleaning my
Dirty linens
Dirty clothing or fabrics
Penicillin that be in 'em
Antibiotic medication found in the dirty clothing
Dried acrylic mono chromatics
Dry art supplies made of acrylic with only one color (mono) used
And badly, woven tactics
Poorly executed strategies
Hard battles won
Difficult fights were won
But we lost ground son
However, we lost some of our status during those battles
Now we back at one
Starting over from the beginning
In these homely trenches
In a familiar and confined location
With foul stenches, we fight
In a place with bad smells, we battle
For inches near something
Trying to make small movements towards something
To hold onto but
To attempt to grasp but there are obstacles in the way
I've been fighting for so long
Been in conflict for an extended period of time
I dunno where to go onto
I do not know where to continue towards
A clung hard to someone
Heavily relied on someone
Who could to tell me better than no one
Someone who could offer insight that nobody else could
Who i was and where i came from
Describing their identity and history
What i knew and if the sky
Defining what was known and questioning the sky's true color
Was really blue
If the sky truly appears to be blue
The river flows yet no one knows
The river is in constant motion but nobody knows its destination
Where it goes
The river's final destination is unknown
Shitty days make for some
Terrible days contribute to
Shitty nights the blackest lights
Horrible nights with no light
The saddest sights
The most depressing things to view
Sad memories still seein' em vividly
Recalling painful memories with great clarity
Wickedly the sky's so empty
The sky is completely void
Not a drop of cloud hoping to come down
No clouds in sight that may bring rain
In the form of liquid admiration
Rain that helps vegetation grow and flourish
Rain cleansing my blasphemy passively
Rain that purifies and results in hope
Passionately kissing
Embracing
Fertile ground and its apple seeds
Fertile soil with the potential for new growth and ideas
Reality, ain't nothin to me
Reality is insignificant to them
Nothin more than some fallacy
Simply untrue or inaccurate beliefs
My calloused feet become jaggedy
Rough, worn-out feet with sharp edges
Head more raggedy
Unkempt or wild minds
No song speak tragedy
No music that speaks of sadness
Without a tiny little shimmer of hope
Without the smallest spark of hope
Oh wait, there it goes
Even the smallest amount of hope can be found
The World is made of paper it's a paper bag jar
The world is extremely fragile and easily damaged
Got two eyes that are fulla demons and it's
They have two very troubled and wicked eyes
Heavy on my soul
Very emotionally burdening
