We don't need a party
Just a place to meet
My mind is still racing
While the city sleeps
But I don't complain
'Cause I know we're okay

Race against the clock
Running on no sleep
When there's no time to rest
And there's no need to dream
'Cause when you're with me
I feel like I'm dreaming

I hang out and hold on
(And count the days till I come home)
I can't brave this all alone

Quarantine my heart, baby
In someone else's arms
I feel unhealthy

How can we survive
And finally live our dreams
In a world filled up with players
On opposing teams?
Darling, how can I go on?
Sing me one more song

Not even an hour on the interstate
Such an unforgiving journey
An eternal wait
And I hit the cruise control
There's a swelling in my soul
It's so good

I speed up and get home
To find you again

Quarantine my heart, baby
In someone else's arms
I feel unhealthy
(So never let me go)
If I can't feel your heart beating
I might as well just write off love completely

Clogging up my mind
Gotta get it out
(Get it out)
Open my mouth and let it out
I've tried, and trust me
It's not the same with anyone but you
I swear to God it's true

Quarantine my heart, baby
In someone else's arms
I feel unhealthy
(So never let me go)
If I can't feel your heart beating
I might as well just write off love completely

Check my pulse
I think I've had too much, baby

I Can't Go To Sleep
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.
