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.
Listen up, turn it up and rock it out
Party on, I wanna hear you scream and shout
This is real, as real as it gets
I came to get down to get some fucking respect
Taking it back to hardcore level
You better be ready, put your pedal to the metal
Taking it back to hardcore level
You better be ready, put your pedal to the metal
Go!
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give up
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
I just wanna be, wanna be loved
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give up
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
I just wanna be, wanna be loved
I want domination
I want your submission
I see you're not resisting
To this temptation
I've got one confession
A love deprivation
I've got a jet black heart
It's all fucked up and it's falling apart
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give up
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
I just wanna be, wanna be loved
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give up
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
I just wanna be, wanna be loved
I've got another confession
I fell to temptation
And there is no question
There was some connection
I've got to follow my heart
No matter how far
I gotta roll the dice
Never look back and never think twice
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give up
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
I just wanna be, wanna be loved
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give up
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
I just wanna be, wanna be loved
Take your past, burn it up and let it go
Carry on, I'm stronger than you'll ever know
That's the deal, you get no respect
You're gonna get yours
You better watch your fucking neck
Take the past, burn it up and let it go
Carry on, I'm stronger than you'll ever know
That's the deal, you get no respect
If you try to get hard you better watch your fuckin' neck
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give up
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
I just wanna be, wanna be loved
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give up
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
I just wanna be, wanna be loved
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in (take your past, burn it up and let it go)
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in (take your past, burn it up and let it go)

I came to get down to get some fucking respect
Taking it back to hardcore level
You better be ready, put your pedal to the metal
Taking it back to hardcore level

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."
No Surprises
Radiohead
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

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.
"Listen up, Turn it up & rock it out Party on, I wanna hear you scream & shout This is real, as real as it gets I came to get down, to get some fucking respect Taking it back to the hardcore level I'd rather be ready for some battles in the metal Taking it back to the hardcore level Better be ready for some battles in the metal"
That lyric is incorrect,
its "Better be ready, put your pedal to the metal"
