The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
yo, yo, yo
Jedi Mind
Heavenly Divine
steadily shine
ikon the fucking hologram
yo, yo, yo, yo
[Ikon the H ologram]
another sacrificial lamb
is out of the hands of hologram
send him into the dungeon and plunder his fucking plan
holy land
who spit the live shit
the do or die in the jail, Jedi Mind shit
the hot shit
live raps crack your jaw
like who's the avenger and who's at the center of war
i left the scar
so your crabs would over sand
mental will dent you and take you to a holy land, lord know the man
sharp blades slash your vitals
recitals will fight you and entice you to burn bibles
homicidal
hologram burn churches
murders by sticking a crucifix through your cervix
divine purpose
for the remi that's in my thermos
wait and see we'll stick you with needles that's hypodermic
you heard the verdict
I'm with Allah cause he chose me
broke into the Vattican strangled the pope with his rosary
what, what what what, what, what what what what
[Chorus Repeat 4x]
jedi mind heavenly divine
steadily shine in '99
what what
[Jus Allah]
mc's face terror wherever my sounds audible
banned from third world portals battle mortals and slaughter you
seen inside the places of beyond
the dwellings of the Omn
resistance in Islamic patheon
flows got the breeze on my clothes got the scent of trees
I lay back and blow sax like Kenny G
power blast wiping my path devour fast
I leave you with the grain of sand in life's hour glass
divide the spell
the demons rise out of hell
gun buying lapels and rob you of your outer shell
you feel the ill dire who sire and hell fire
I launch writers
put the drawn on Gong's wire
Jedi swordsmen give rappers a foul furtune
what shines slippin torches in your body into a coffin
insane damage is done, you fucking with the army
we beat the skulls in the shape of wet bag of laundry
what, yea yea
[Chorus 4x]
[Ikon]
yo the gods around, the dramatarzan
[Jus Allah]
your fibical light, law of the titans
[Ikon]
we like a fucking bolt of lightning
[Jus Allah]
the three wisemen
[Ikon]
we at levels that defy men
[Jus Allah]
watch out for fake heads deviled the skysmen
[Ikon]
arriving from the dawn and spawned with ill form
[Jus Allah]
battle leave you laying dead in the balm like stillborns
[Ikon]
the master herein
[Jus Allah]
the ominous the master spirit
[Ikon]
can't understand the language of rappers with bile lyrics
[Jus Allah]
ikon the python
[Ikon]
rappers are left strangled
[Jus Allah]
I overlook the earth cause I see it from sun's angle
[Ikon]
above the clouds
[Jus Allah]
we set high, we daze
write a page
on how you enslave the worldly way
[Ikon]
Islamic marksmen
[Jus Allah]
seeing the squad then..
[Ikon]
..could be your fatal mistake
[Jus Allah]
like the first sins of Adam in the garden
[Ikon]
you feel sorrow
I projected is all Apollo
[Jus Allah]
explore realms you left too confused to follow
[Ikon]
invite your town to absorb the sniper rounds
[Jus Allah]
Illadelph, Shamballah, nigga staying underground
[Chorus 4x]

In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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”
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
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.
I should think it's pretty obvious - the group embraces Muslim-influenced hip-hop, as Vinnie Paz is Muslim, and denounce Christianity.
Also - MicrowaveSkank, this "scene" is that of epic/underground hip hop, it's not much like the usual hip-hop rap scene. I'm not into most rap, but I was astounded by some of the lyrics that this group and Non-Phixion have - it, along with my black-metal-loving boyfriend, brought me into this. Give it a chance, eh?
