Defy You

System of a Down

Let me desecrate you child
Let me penetrate your world
Let me penetrate your mind
Let me desecrate you
Don’t let me desecrate you my child
Don’t let me penetrate your world
And steal the warmness of your soul away
Don’t let me penetrate you my child
Don’t let me desecrate your world
And steal the warmness of your soul away

I divide you with faith
Provide you your soul
Defy you to love
I divide you with your faith
I provide you with your soul
I defy you with your love

Don’t let me desecrate you my child
Don’t let me penetrate your world
And steal the warmness of your soul away
Don’t let me penetrate you my child
Don’t let me desecrate your world
And steal the warmness of your soul away

I divide you with faith
Provide you your soul
Defy you to love
I divide you with your faith
I provide you with your soul
I defy you with your love

(really quiet part, really hard to hear)

I divide you with faith
Provide you your soul
Defy you to love
I divide you with your faith
I provide you with your soul
I defy you with your love

I divide you with faith
Provide you your soul
Defy you to love
I divide you with your faith
I provide you with your soul
I defy you with your love

    dunno if you already know this, but i think in the really quiet part, he is saying what it sorta says in nuguns, i think it says: "the little boy stared to the price of love button must connects to the price of the time

    and the little boy glared to the sheets of the night a bullet connects to the price of his crime"

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
