Papa Roach - War Over Me Lyrics

2019 👀🤘🏾gang

Nice song greetings from Moscow

I'm struggling with my autistic temper and it feels like I'm fighting a losing battle, this song sums up my fight perfectly.

Suppresive Person / Potential Trouble Source here ... cheers :-)

Lyrics:

War over me!

I'm standing on the front lines
I'm fighting for my soul
I've walked the self-destructive lonely road
I read the warning signs but i was to blind to see
I had to feel the pain till i believed

I have a purpose

This is war, this is war
Since the day i was born
I would die just to live, just to bleed
I will fight for my life
Turn my darkness to light
This is war, its a war over me

War over me
War over me

My petty feeds destruction
My hunger turns to greed
But nothing ever fills this hole in me
No peace on the horizon
No peace in anything
I had to hurt myself till I believed

I have a purpose

This is war, this is war
Since the day I was born
I would die just to live, just to bleed
I will fight for my life
Turn my darkness to light
This is war, its a war over me

I’m caught up in the crossfire
I’m caught up in the pain
This gift of desperation
Is exactly what I need
I’m falling like an empire
I’m calling out your name
I’m locked in my own prison
Tell me help is on the way
Tell me help is on the way

I will fight for this life
Turn my darkness to light
This is war, its a war over me

This is war, this is war
Since the day I was born
I would die just to live, just to bleed
I will fight for my life
Turn my darkness to light
This is war, its a war over me
This is war, its a war over me
War over me

I have a purpose

Lovely song!

in the words of tyler durden from fight club  " I see all this potential, and I see squandering. God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need. We're the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed off.  ''

"Esto es guerra, esto es guerra desde el día que nací" qué parte.

FEAR the best album of 2015

Ese coro lo adoro

El coro me da una sensación de nostalgia.

Qué principio

And believe me Jacoby Shaddix. You have a purpose. You through your music, have inspired and helped so many people including myself that are "caught up in the crossfire and caught up in the pain" wake up the next day and face this life. God bless you and I believe that you are marked for Gods kingdom. I pray for you every day. Keep it going brother!

Freaking unreal song! Smashed it PR! And have been for years!

How are you guys so damn good album after album after album?

This song sounds like A Perfect Circle meets Five Finger Death Punch.

Que música incrível 😊😊😊

❤❤❤ the new stuff so much.please come back to sheffield next time u tour. we ❤to 👂the new stuff live.😊👌✌

wow man I don't even like rock, but P roach is so awesome I love the deep meaning and inspiration behind there music, still not a huge fan but ton of respect for them. I wish stuff like this was on the radion, imagine how much better people would be? to bad anything that's about God gets shut down unless its against him. sad world.

Population Control America MoFo! 💪🇺🇸💯

"I...Have A Purpose..."- Jacoby S.

this is great!!papa roach are going to surprise me every time i said that i know all of their their abilities in making songs!!!!!!

jacoby sounds like a young john cooper

Really thought this was a Five Finger Death Punch song at first. The instruments sound nearly identical to 5FDP's style.

Tactical Boredom Same producer

I feel so late finding this great song and album and only knowing how great it is now, neither the less better late then never love it :)

I love this song so much!!! :3

Perfect Dark souls 3 song

when I first heard gravity I got emotional hearing the spiritual shift in that song. after listening to the rest of the album all the songs are awesome and uplifting. so proud of jacoby and Papa roach where they've come from, where they are now and where they're heading.

great music for a great album, made by a fucking band!

play at 1.25 speed

+brian colston how about no.

I live you guys

FUCKED THE REPLAY BUTTON

After this it is certain that PR love iron man

the whole album is about. turning ur life around and getting away from the devil and giving ur life to God and seeing everything change for the better

Yes, more specifically about battling his addictions. This album is about escaping the hell within us.

Jacoby finally got rid of his many addictions and stopped cheating on his wife. That hell you're talking about is Well described in Gravity, and Devil highlights the aspect of fighting yourself

this song is my anthem put it in GODS hands and turn darkness to light!!!! this is war! face everything and rise

I honestly can hear him talk to the Lord through this whole albulm...definitely gave me a new perspective on life

awesome song with an awesome singer!!! XD

+Megan Roy. It's how I'm feeling... made me wonder if he feels the same.

He is a christian. There is video on you tube of him singing Christian music, and telling is testimony in church.

How do you loop? youtube wont let me anymore wtf

+hasani hall Yeah I dont know how either. :(

Yeah I just downloaded a youtube loop lol

What te fak

So I have some issues going on in my life right now... And every time I listen to these guys it's like their songs were made for me...

wow i have to say i liked a couple of your songs before but this whole album is baddass u guys got a great new sound

Great song

Jacoby, is this song about a relationship w God?

I am so glad I am not the only person with that question.

I'm just waiting for him to say it publicly. I want to hear the words.

This feeling when u live in country where going on civil war and listening this song

be safe and may God carry you

Great Song Realesed It On Halloween this Year 2015 3rd Single off from F.E.A.R

This is now my favourite song from Papa Roach and every other song this is the best

Can't wait to see you guys at helsinki!! I fucking love this shit!

BEST EVER PAPA ROACH SONG!!!

Junior Santana Noo, is better this one

@Mark Wakefield Sorry but this song is average compared to Gravity, pure logic

@Mr. Drown_73 Gravity was one of their most promising song... at least until maria brink ruined it.

P.S: Took you long enough to answer.

@Mark Wakefield I don't see how her minor role could ruin "one of their most promising" songs but ok. Sucks you can't enjoy it just for that.
And sorry. I've been asleep for 3 years.

I'm a new Fan, and I really love this album! really great!

energetic song.the whole album is awesome.great job guys

energetic song.the whole album is awesome.great job guys

last resort was the first papa Roach song I've ever heard. they have come a very long way since then and there is not a single song from them that I didn't enjoy, P Roach forever!!!

We love you too! Come to Ukraine! We are waiting for!

Been following since day one...Peewagon, GrrBrr etc. This is one of the top bands to see live. The energy and the show they put on for their fans is second to one. The continue to prove that rock lives. They reinvent their sound and write kick ass songs and tour constantly with great bands. These guys are helping keep rock on top. I live in CT and we have NO rock stations on FM radio. Corporation assholes sell the stations or change formats constantly. We have 3 classic rock stations and one really popular "Rock" station that plays nothing newer, usually play Vanhalen, ozzyand metallica. Good bands don't get me wrong but never hear bands like nonpoint, FFDP, Avenge 7 Fold, Korn, Slipknot and plenty others. CT sucks and I'm surprised any bands come here. We have iRockRadio which is guys who were part of a great rock station that was independent and ended up getting bought out. These guys are the only support and voice for rock and metal in CT.....anyways.....VIVA LA CUCARACHA

Thanks for the love everybody!

+Papa Roach you're awesome

saw you guys in London, ON, you put on an epic show and both my friend and I didn't even come to see you guys but we both loved you the most and I just can't stop listening to this album now!

Papa Roach is this Christian ish music?

Thanks for the great album :-)

This song is so true look within there is a war for us all and we need to see that and fight back for our soul and our true power and nature.

I love papa roach

Love this band live there music and it does sound like they r singing to me

For some there will never be help on the way.. even though someone held their hand, some people will always be self destructing.. no matter how much you give them

Simply an AMAZING Album, wasn't a fan prior, went back and am enjoying catalogue on Spotify.

I love this so true

First decent song on this album I've heard

Fucken thieves

This is how i feel towards isis" this is war this is war since the day I was born I will die just to live, just to bleed! I will fight for this life, turn my darkness to light!!!"

I've enjoyed what I've heard from this album so far!

some kind of Adema feel in this

i live these lyrics every day. I love this band for always making me realize I'm not the only one.

Not the Only One is a new song of theirs.

Tiene mejores

i hate ads

i like the part on 2:20, it reminds mi a lot of old getting away with murded papa roach

So great! I love it

excelente cancion !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

bring old p roach back

@Bun Rock The Paramour Sessions was the last decent album

@Bun Rock I was with that same thought, then FEAR came out and changed my mind.

This sounds very-very similar (the chorus) help me remember - I think it was some very popular probably europian song in the 90-s. 

this is just another song that makes me feel like it was written for me or everyone else who is (or was) going through an emotional war.

when I heard these words: I have a purpose... 
I started to cry cause it felt like jacoby is telling us that we all mean something. 

Papa Roach made everything alright. Best Album ever.... SEE YA AT ROCKIMPARK 2015 *o*

This song is so emotional and uplifting. Jacoby had to have been feeling it all when he wrote it. Awesome!

great track!

This song has very good lyrics

OMG!!!! I love this song!!! It makes me cry!!!! 

Agree it's a very good song

buena cancion..
me gusta

Really wanted to see a music video of another of the musics of the album. 

@Joey Torres Lovehatetragedy? There's only one with a music video

@Lazar. Actually two: She Loves Me Not and Time And Time Again

@Venamis Del Ah yeah, forgot about that one!

@Joey Torres They've posted on their Facebook/Twitter that they've just finished the music video for Gravity, and that it's in editing process right now.

ohh yeah, nice

Very uplifting <3
Great job you guys

this instrumental reminds me FFDP, but this song is very good

I like the orchestral/string parts on this song.
The raw honesty makes this one almost like a bonus track to Getting Away With Murder.
To me, this is the second part of “Take Me”..

I have a purpose...

Fuck, this track fucks me, I Cry really man, I love this One

Unlike many rock bands today, creating music that is amplifying negativity, P Roach have woken all us rockers up, giving us the positivity within rock that we have been so thirsty for. Well done P Roach. Its so tasty, so good, love it !!!! :)

I have to agree. This album has made me get so many goosebumps and I can relate to every word :)

@Caleb Blodgett Yes! And I can relate to every struggle he has been through. This song is probably my favorite :) 

@Caleb Blodgett Right??! I have been through almost everything that he has been through.

negativity is pretty good imo.

To me, it's more than that. This song actually saved my life. Exactly a year ago, I was at a point where I was ready to kill myself. I kept on trying to fight the depression from losing my grandfather, but kept feeling like I'd already lost. After listening to this song, I ended up deciding it was time to win the inner war over myself, and ended up calling a suicide prevention line. This song was what made me try to save myself. If it wasn't for the song, I'd sure as hell have been dead at my home.
