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”
I fuck you because your famous
I fuck you for your money
I fuck you to control you
I fuck you so somebody I can have half of everything
I fuck you to fuck you over
I fuck you until I
I fuck you for a secret
I fuck you because I can't remember
If I already fucked you
Whore
I fuck you out of boredom
I fuck you because I can't feel it anyway
I fuck you to make the pain go away
Fuck you because I love you
Fuck you for loving you
I don't need a reason to hate you the way I do
Fuck you because I love you
Fuck you for loving you
I don't need a reason to hate you the way I do
Hate you the way I do
I fuck you so I can fucking feel
Something
Instead of nothing at all
I fuck you because you are beautiful
I fuck you because you're my nigger
I fuck you because I'm your whore
I fuck you because you are a whore
I fuck you for fun
I fuck you for fun
I fuck you because I can
I fuck you so I have a place to stay
I fuck you so you will protect me
Fuck you because I love you
Fuck you for longing you too
I don't need a reason to hate you the way I do
Fuck you because I love you
Fuck you for loving you too
I don't need a reason to hate you the way I do
Hate you the way I do
I don't need a reason to hate you the way I do
Hate you the way I do
Hate you the way I do
Hate you the way I do
(Hate you the way I do)
Hate you the way I do
I fuck you for your money
I fuck you to control you
I fuck you so somebody I can have half of everything

I fuck you for a secret
I fuck you because I can't remember
If I already fucked you
Whore
I fuck you out of boredom
I fuck you because I can't feel it anyway

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.
Just A Little Lovin'

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Plastic Bag

“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.
Yea i agree with marilyn, it's about being used and getting sick of it, and knowing they knew what they were doing but did it anyway
I kinda think it's a long overdue song for rose magowen (sp?)
