Songs about pain: TUC's Top 5 Mix - The Unprecedented Cult

In one of our earlier posts, we curated the top 5 Poems on Pain written on TUC. Today, we are going to talk about the top 5 songs written on TUC relating to “pain”.

The power of music is known to everyone. I feel that there is no better venting mechanism than music. Songs can drain out all the darkness, all the venom, all the misery from the inside.

If you are alone and can’t pour out your feelings with anyone, songs are probably your best bet. All the goosebumps and all the adrenaline rush, that is the power of music.

So, without waiting any further, let’s start. Sit back. It is going to be intense.

#1 – Haemorrhage: Rise Again

One of my all-time favorite rap songs on TUC related to pain and depression. It brings out strong emotions of misery, instability, helplessness, and pain of a depressed person. The song was written to create awareness on depression and understanding how painful it is to live a life of depression. If these lyrics don’t give you chills, I don’t know what can?

Songs about pain: Blood splattered across the dark depicting depression, disease, and sickness.

Falling,
a worm crawling,
my skin,
it’s hurting,
choking,
this burden,
my hopes,
broken,
not coping,
the wind,
it’s hurling,
aching,
shaking,
these chains,
never breaking,
burst open,
inside’s facing,
a monster,
a volcano,
erupting,
I’m fine,
you’re mistaken,
the truth,
I’m embracing,
the worst part,
I’m making,
never thought,
I’m hating,
these senses,
fading,
reaching for the dark,
I’m saying…

Haemorrhage…
my last breath,
sickening,
inside my head,
it’s over,
nothing’s left,
turn me into ashes,
maybe, I’ll rise again..

Misery,
salt in my wounds,
dripping,
red drops,
nothing new,
blazing,
the body’s consumed,
pain,
the flesh, sewn,
noises,
veins in fumes,
push back,
can’t control,
give back,
the life,
but it’s owned,
tell me,
if death’s of any use?
lying,
I’m still confused,
laughing,
you cut loose,
bury me in hell,
but,
I’m here to rule…

Haemorrhage…
my last breath,
sickening,
inside my head,
it’s over,
nothing’s left,
turn me into ashes,
and maybe, I’ll rise again..

#2 – Into the ashes: The Abuse

A rap song about abuse. One of the songs that bring out the true essence of misery and pain. The song highlights the different kinds of abuses in our society and the mental state of its victims. The song is an eye-opener for the people who still treat others like nothing.

Songs about pain: Man trying to remove the cloth wrapped around his face depicting abuse and depression.

Came in this world
A Shining star for thee
Smiles for a day
The world at my feet

Then came the night
The complacency was thrown away
The hurt defined by your love
That even the angels went to the grave

Thought, it was bad to spill out
Thought, they will never leave me alone
But, the storm brewing inside
Was more than that I could own

Fast forward
Everything didn’t go as planned
They found a different path
And my life left on the edge of being damned

Treated like a shit
Always hurting and gazing at the sky
Wishing for the rain to come
And wash away the wounds I keep inside

There is a reason
Why people choose the path
Embracing the ecstasy
When the reality is just as bad

I hear them calling my name
I know, but I can’t
Even the best days for me
Are the ones
You do not want to have

I know you know me
Made it this far, you beside me
But the black I’ve been carrying within
Is something no one will ever see

Should I stand in front of you
Show how broken I am
Or, should I smile
Pretending to be the person, not I am

I am not sure
If I am done with this life
Or, do I need to see more
The sanity inside of me
It took away, bleeding I’m left all alone

Maybe, I was born to die
Maybe, I was never meant to get through
The hurt and the pain I’ve been living all the while
Will turn me into the ashes, you’ll see soon

#3 – Never-ending love: Song of a Hitman

One of the intense and dark songs about love and pain. It narrates the scene where a hitman is wounded by a gunshot and is dying in front of the woman he loved the most. The essence of the song is that the love between the two did not succeed because of the job of the hitman and they had to part ways.

Songs about pain: Blood splatter showcasing broken and dying love.

I can’t take another step
A hurting metal inside my chest
Life revolving in my head
Probably, this is the end

Falling on my knees
The red source beneath my feet
The screams pegged inside of me
Black is all that I can see

Maybe the last visual
You standing in front of me, unusual
I’ve waited for it, hauled
I’ll be curse free after all

Resting against the wall
Pouring the tincture on the hollow
Head hanging and fire left to swallow

A smile on the face
May be tears in your eyes
The happiness and sadness
Still can’t erase, even as I die

The weight of you leaving
The trigger I pulled, left bleeding
A flesh of regrets, it has always been
Was it me or was it the devil, holding on to me?

I wanted you to set me free
But, I was born for the sunset it seems
When I needed some sanity
I was at the crossroads of my own deeds

Running from my shadows
Reaching for yours
A person so drowned into
Still couldn’t find, what was inside of you

I have always hated
The truth that made me
I tried to change myself
But, black was the blood inside of me

This moment I wanted all my life
Your arms around me and the love in your eyes
But, it’s too late and end of the road on which I ride
For the last time
For this never-ending love, I want you to realize,

“I will love you even on the other side”

#4 – Black Blood: Life and Death

One of the best songs about pain. A rap song about life and death. The song tries to join the dots between pain, darkness, depression, life, and death. Focus is on a person who realizes that no matter how good or bad a person’s condition is, ultimately he/she has to die. And, after death, every soul fuses into a dark void.

Constellation in the sky depicting existence of darkness and light, life and death.

Far away
In the ocean
A soul I saw
Gasping with emotions
A lightning
Struck his head
Couldn’t escape
It was the end

Stressed eyes
I took an invisible blow
The grey clouds scrambled
And the death rowed
I held my chest
Did the blood flow?
It was too late
Couldn’t bring me back to the shore

A lie I always needed
The world I built fell apart
The pain in you was never your part
Cut through my veins
And watch
How the black blood flows into my heart

Standing
On the brown earth
Slowly sinking in
I am drenched and frozen
As the vultures close in
I prefer
To be buried
than be victimized
But, beneath the ground
Something doesn’t feel right

I see them all
A smirk they embrace
A cross in front
Beneath, a wooden case
It finally made sense
I was never awake
Running with the darkness
It was my own death bed

A lie I always needed
The world I built fell apart
The pain in you was never your part
Cut through my veins
And watch
How the black blood flows into my heart

Alive
The death seemed so low
The black was all around
They said
Now, I was one of their own
A tear dropped then
Now turned into snow
I thought
I’ll be floating somewhere
But now I’m left all alone

I looked around
The same story written
On every block of stone
Everyone slept
Not concerned
Even if the heavens roared

A message sent by him
Was clear in my mind
The fear we run from
Is eventually a friend for the lifetime
Everything goes on
It never matters
The black and the white we live
In the end, shatters

The lie
I finally threw away
From inside my soul
The world I built
Was never meant to be my own
The pain you live
Will never make it that far
Cut through the veins
It’s just the blood
That will finally embrace the dark

#5 – Animal: My Own Reflection

One of the initial hardcore rap songs written about depression and pain. The song, though being old, has everything a hardcore rap song should have. It showcases misery, pain, anguish, and self-hatred. Pure bliss for the hurting and an eye-opener for people who think depression is NOT real.

A man looking at his own reflection in a broken mirror depicting thoughts about self and inner struggle.

My walls,
are closing in
Can’t breathe,
it’s all too suffocating
Blood,
in the cracks
A disease,
No, but a victim outcast
Laughing,
I see you through that glass
Reflection,
you’re not, but a devil of my past

Infused,
you’ve been since that time
Love,
when I surrendered to die
Assassin,
you’ve been of my soul
Fault,
it is but of my own
Escape,
I can’t now from your trap
A Predator,
I’ve become of my own mishap

Darkness,
the sunshine in me
Shadows,
are mine, but don’t belong to me
Sadistic,
has become a way of life
Control,
have you now over my mind
Numb,
I’ve become to this world
Chained,
I’ve been within, with my emotions

Selfish,
is what I am now
Pain,
I don’t feel somehow
Expectations,
I don’t have any more
Love,
is nothing but a closed-door
Hate,
is like a venom I’ve drunk
You,
are an animal I’ve become
