This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
People tell me I'm too high when I'm around,
And when I'm not I'm closer to the ground
Well, I do anything whenever I want,
And I want to do it here and now
I'm on a one-way street,
I can't retreat,
'Cause my mind and I play hide and seek
They want to make a problem out of me,
'Cause they want their own problems unseen
My mind's a gallery of memories, yeah
I reflect the history
I'm the sort of case of the human race,
That people find hard to face
I'm the living wreck, I live in Tooting Bec,
I'm the Cosmic Ted spaced out of my head
I'm the living wreck, I live in Tooting Bec,
And I'm equal to anyone I've met
I'm the second door on the third floor,
If you've got the key then please unlock me
But hey, don't talk to me, I'm not what you see,
I'm not here today, I'm miles away
It's twice as much reality,
When you're face to face with history
Yeah its been a long trip, it made me flip
Now I'm crawling on your bedroom floor
Now I'm climbing up your bathroom wall
And I search, I search, in this shit, and i search,
For the eternal party,
Is it in my head, or is it in my bed?
Baby, please baby, I said baby, is it here, or is it there?
What? the second door on the the third floor
Tell me more
I'm the living wreck, I live in Tooting Bec,
I'm the Cosmic Ted spaced out of my head
I'm the living wreck, I live in Tooting Bec,
And I'm equal to anyone I've met
And I'm living wreck,live in Tooting Bec,
Cosmic Ted, spaced out of my head
And I'm better than anyone you've met
I sing "la la la la la la la la la"
Well i just got back from the outer space,
They call me the Flashing Psychedelic Kid
Some say I'm spaced out of my head
You know it feels so good, when i reappear,
And its so so sad to see yourself disappear,
I disappear, when i disappear well its too bad
Well, here i go again! And I sing
And when I'm not I'm closer to the ground
Well, I do anything whenever I want,
And I want to do it here and now
I'm on a one-way street,
I can't retreat,
'Cause my mind and I play hide and seek
They want to make a problem out of me,
'Cause they want their own problems unseen
My mind's a gallery of memories, yeah
I reflect the history
I'm the sort of case of the human race,
That people find hard to face
I'm the living wreck, I live in Tooting Bec,
I'm the Cosmic Ted spaced out of my head
I'm the living wreck, I live in Tooting Bec,
And I'm equal to anyone I've met
I'm the second door on the third floor,
If you've got the key then please unlock me
But hey, don't talk to me, I'm not what you see,
I'm not here today, I'm miles away
It's twice as much reality,
When you're face to face with history
Yeah its been a long trip, it made me flip
Now I'm crawling on your bedroom floor
Now I'm climbing up your bathroom wall
And I search, I search, in this shit, and i search,

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."

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
Wu-Tang Clan
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.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
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.
