If ya been delivered stand up on your feet and praise the Lord,
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

If ya been delivered stand up on your feet and praise the Lord
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Here's the Knowledge, get your pen and paper
A spiritual caper, You'll be calling me later
Seeking Godly wisdom that's 2000 years in the making
I'm taking the lesson that holds your deliverance
Asking me how God can save a man, raise a man
The enemy he pays your man
So why you judging me and your buggin me
Just remember me ain't no fearing me
You'll hearing me

If ya been delivered stand up on your feet and praise the Lord,
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

If ya been delivered stand up on your feet and praise the Lord
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

You can shout to this, bounce to this
Clap to this, as long as you don't question this
Radical, acrobatical, Jesus Christ fanatical
Sabbatical taker, innovator, in love with the Creator
Since I was a baby I know folk hate me
But lately don't really matter what you say
Them silly games you try and play
I represent the One who healed me
Gods people can you feel me

If ya been delivered stand up on your feet and praise the Lord
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

If ya been delivered stand up on your feet and praise the Lord
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

All the people on the left
All the people on the right
Clap your hand

Make my praise the high praise
I want to lift Him up

Make my praise the high praise
I want to lift Him up

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
