Madchild - Painful Skies Lyrics






Look
I know what I did
And I'm not sitting here blaming anyone else
I'm not feeling sorry for myself either

Yo
I listen to this beat it makes me think of what I've been through
All of the mistakes and stupid shit that I got into
All the fuckin' fakeness of people that I made friends with
So 98 percent of those friendships, I had to end it
I'm to old to be worried and keep pretending
And I apologize to some of the people deeply offended
But I can't live in the past, that shit just wears me down
That shit just tears me up inside and fucking tears me down
I'm not the man I was then, but I am not running
And I am not yet the man that I am still becoming
I'm getting stronger everyday and I can fucking feel it
And all the problems of my past one day I'm gonna deal with
Thanks for your patience I apologize for each occurrence
And I just hope that you can take this as some reassurance
My life is good. each day is better than the next day
But I have not forgotten won't settle till every debts payed

Time changes
Each man ages
And sometimes best friends become strangers
Each life's a book with blank pages
Last ten years it's a chapter that's outrageous
Time changes
Every man ages
And sometimes best friends become strangers
Tears, anger and laughter we can't change it
Listen to your hearts. We're protected by angels

Look
Let me make this clear I don't regret my whole past
Can't believe how time flies, shit has gone by so fast
You let me in your secret world and that was quite an honor
And I admit that that's a life I thought I might have wanted
Probably of pursued If I hadn't gotten caught up
But flags they started raising with these kids all gettin' shot up
And I became addicted to a drug that almost took my life
Lookin' back that might of been the only thing that saved my life
I'm full of love now, I'm Happy. I don't harbor hatred

Pretty sure that's how God wants us and to me that's sacred

I'm not sitting here judging and calling ya'll some vagrants
And I'm not pointing fingers questioning your occupations
I'm just hoping that the way I feel can shine some light
I know you got a good heart dawg. It's time to stop the fight
And let yourself become the man that your supposed to be
I still believe in you. No matter what, you're always close to me

Time changes
Each man ages
And sometimes best friends become strangers
Each life's a book with blank pages
Last ten years it's a chapter that's outrageous
Time changes
Every man ages
And sometimes best friends become strangers
Tears, anger and laughter we can't change it
Listen to your hearts. We're protected by angels

And I know becoming friends again ain't possible, at least for years
And fucking up for me is still a problem that I deeply fear
Only got a couple close friends now. That's how I like it
And I think I'm actually gonna make it, but I'm not a psychic
One of them's a brother proud to say that he's my best friend
Come on man! you got some fucking brothers, let this shit end
It's sad to me to see that greed is still The Devil's weapon
I tried my best to walk away from shit and kept steppin'
Brothers doin' good, his heart is filled with love
And we gon keep on building with these people that believe in us
Remember there was four of us till death do us part
Now there's only two of us the rest grew apart
It doesn't mean I don't think about you too, every week
And even if we never speak there's still a bond I'll never leave
I hope your happy and your family is doin' awesome
And hope that your still following the progress of the little monster
You had a hand and that helped and saved my life, I won't forget
Let's live the next half with no regrets, cause it ain't over yet

Time changes
Each man ages
And sometimes best friends become strangers
Each life's a book with blank pages
Last ten years it's a chapter that's outrageous
Time changes
Every man ages
And sometimes best friends become strangers
Tears, anger and laughter we can't change it
Listen to your hearts. We're protected by angels

  1. D.... ....

    Holy hellfire missiles this song speaks to me! So thankful that I found Madchild music.

  2. a.... G....

    This hits me deep man I want to end my life but dope songs n drugs make me want to stay here

  3. N.... f....

    I drink and cry to this song.

  4. S.... G....

    The way this song was made with the beat and the way you did the lyric, it gives me a 2Pac vibe. In a way, it reminds me of the song Dear Mama.

  5. M.... P....

    Dude your helping me through my own withdrawal ive listened to you and tom this whole time you guys basically tell my story and it helps xanax meth opioids and in comming off my sub program havent had anything in 5 days you guys give me the strength i need

  14. H.... ....

    I've been there. I had money and the other bs but at the end of the day I was alone. I lost it all but got my life back. Depression is a bitch but better then drugs,alcohol and dope buddies.

  15. J.... T....

    Cool brother right here. Us Christians love you man even if we disagree with the ways you live. I was in your shoes for 6-8 years

  16. B.... C....

    This current world sucks nuts. In my perfect world artists like MadChild etc would be on the radio constantly and the fuckin trash that's on there now would be reserved for prisoners on a constant loop.

  17. v.... ....

    Who else is here after seeing his new (AMAZING) video colab W/Tom Macdonald ("Sober")?

  18. M.... D....

    Awesome from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

  25. R.... S....

    Madchild come to Nelson, BC

    Madchild, thank you for putting so much love into this awesome song!

  27. J.... M....

  28. R.... K....

    Here after " Sober" forgot about my man, Shane mother fucking Bunting.

  29. E.... I....

    "I who have nothing" by Vinnie Paz vibes

  30. w.... o....

    Gotta thank Tom McDonald for bringing me here

  31. M.... B....

    This song is way better than most people can appreciate! Madchild truly is one of the most "awake" artists out there!

  32. C.... R....

    Real ass song brother

  33. A.... ....

    Listen to this song 3 years ago. Didn't really relate to anything. Right now. About 90%-ish of these things I relate too. Time is crazy

  34. N.... S....

    Madchild looks like Colby Covington's tatted up cousin

  35. K.... B....

    Still listing in 2020 Great song thanks

  36. J.... M....

    Who is he talking about in this song

    J.... M....

    @Jay M sure... But the reason he put it in a song; did a video; and released it to the masses is because he's speaking to a large audience. Using a personal situation that people can relate to and understand. Maybe it's fictional; probably not. Maybe he's referring to his boys from swollen members?

    For sure though; the ultimate point is to relate through music to his audience.

    J.... M....

    @lawrence shadow yea I know that's what every song is but that does not answer the question I'm asking

    J.... M....

    @Jay M ok.. Well.. I think he's talking about no one. Just hypothetical people used as imagery for people to relate to... That's my belief. If you get a better answer I'm interested to see it.

    J.... M....

    Ummm the first 3 words of the song are let me think about what I been threw not everyone him so this is about his life and the people in it so he's talking about real people with real problems an the problem is he's is fighting with a guy who's brother is friends with him an on tour an he wants to be friends with this guy again an get him an his brother back together it's not some meaphore for something

    J.... M....

    I hope you get the answers you are looking for. Message Madchild. He'll answer.

  37. M.... A....

    yo you better be thankin tom child, there is probably a lot of people just like me that are startin to listen to you again that didnt forget about you but just lost track. you kinda fell off the radar and im glad you back in that bigger light.

    M.... A....

    There's lots of people like me who just learned about Tom because of madchild.. I think Tom might be a short lived gimmick but we will see!!

    M.... A....

    Idk .. who knows I hope not. That last couple songs together worked really good. And just seeing how tom interacts with his fans cause I've been there almost since when he blew up. I dont see him being a flame that goes out. Madchild ... f#ckin OG!! glad I'm seeing more of him

  38. B.... P....

    Yo Madchild, your music helped me find a way out of my own hell. Much love and respect brother, always supporting your music! Keep on spittin the real shit, youre an inspiration to many.

    Fuck the haters

  70. J.... M....

    This is top 10 rap songs for me. Hits so hard.

  71. G.... O....

    I would put Mad Child in my top 5 Canadian rappers.

    G.... O....

    Top 5 Canadian rappers? How can that be when he's a top 10, greatest of all time. 😏 Shawns most recent album solidifies him as one of the most well rounded and underrated rappers of all time. I think the best is yet to come to....

  72. n.... w....

    why the fuck doesn't have like 35 mill views......this shit is life man

  73. R.... N....

    I think madchild and Tom McDonald suck each other off at night. They both suck.

  85. D.... E....

    I don’t recommend specific songs to anyone. Usually I’ll just put on a playlist if they want to listen too the music i do. But on occasion, when I’m having a heart to heart, I play this song and this song only, I don’t play it twice, and I don’t play another after. I call very few people friends anymore, I’ve had a lot, I have fewer now.
    Thank you.
