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.
After all
They made them robed
Repeating all
To live in her wall
Something you'll show me a chance
Wearing a mask
But not before
She's going places she should have never been
She should have never been
After all
They made them robed
Repeating all
To live in her wall
Something you'll show me a chance
Wearing a mask
But not before
She's going places she should have never been
She should have never been
Something you'll show me a chance
Wearing a mask
But not before
She's going places she should have never been
She should have never been
They made them robed
Repeating all
To live in her wall
Something you'll show me a chance
Wearing a mask
But not before
She's going places she should have never been
She should have never been
After all
They made them robed
Repeating all
To live in her wall
Something you'll show me a chance
Wearing a mask
But not before
She's going places she should have never been
She should have never been
Something you'll show me a chance
Wearing a mask
But not before
She's going places she should have never been
She should have never been

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."

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.

The language spliced in here is Farsi, sometimes called Persian, which is the official language of Iran.
Here is what you are hearing along with English translations:
Negah con, negah con, be aebr-ha-ye tu-ye aseman (Look at the clouds in the sky) Saerneveshtaemo didaem (I have seen my destiny)
Aesb-aem bayaed bebaze, ha ha ha (My horse must lose, ha ha ha)
Musik-e delvapaesi (Musical anxiety)
Maen be seda jaevab midaem mostaeghim. Seda naefaesaeme. (I answer to sound directly. Sound is my breath.)
That seems to go in "My Horse Must Lose" this is other song, but awesome job anyway!
i think the anthony green vocals gave TSOAF a little more "umph". still pretty sweet though :]
I agree, but i'm pretty sure that it's not anthony in this song. If that's what you meant. It's the dude from chiodos
right?
Yeah, this is Craig from Chiodos. I think that Saraujo meant he thinks he would have preferred Anthony singing on this song?
the introduction is actually some vocals played backwards.. ive played it forwards but still sounds like german to me.. xD
ill find out

tsoaf sucks now. anthony is barely even in any of the songs. one or maybe two.
anyone know the chords for the chorus and the breakdown n shit?
uhm anthony is singing in this song. i believe it's both anthony and craig if not just anthony.
or i could be wrong. except i have been listening to anthony green sing the past three years of my life. xD
sounds more like "something distorted and changed" in some of the choruses, also maybe "repeating of, the lips interwove" are these official lyrics and does it really matter if its anthony or craig? the voice is still amazing.
i believe it sounds more like "stop being disorientated..."<br /> but definitely not something for a change.
