Lightning Strikes

Ozzy Osbourne

Won't you listen 'cos I'm at it
Again
Lightning striking and on that
You can depend
They say that lightning never
Strikes the same place twice
Gods of thunder sit and watch
The event
You know I take no prisoners
My back's to the wall
You know I must be going
When destiny calls
Until I feel that thunder
Shattering my brain
I won't stop

Rockin' all night rockin' all
Night
Until the lightning strikes
Again
Rockin' all night rockin' all
Night
Until the lightning strikes
Again

Tell your mama that you're
Gonna be late
But not to worry we'll just be
Rockin' all night
The lightning strikes before
You hear the thunder roar
We're becoming the children
Of the night

I'm not apologizing
I am what I am
There is no compromising
I don't give a damn
Until i feel the thunder boiling
In my veins
I won't stop

Rockin' all night rockin' all
Night
Until the lightning strikes
Again
Rockin' all night rockin' all
Night
Until the lightning strikes
Again

Oh no I've lost control
Here we got it's only rock 'n'
Roll

The silver light is flashing
As all turns to gold
In my head voices screaming
And I'm being told
If you will only listen you will
Hear them too
I won't stop

Rockin' all night rockin' all
Night
Until the lightning strikes
Again
Rockin' all night rockin' all
Night
Until the lightning strikes
Again

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
