I, Being The Judge Of This Legal Court
Motion For The Accused To Arise.
Stand Up Boy, Here's The End Of Your Life.
Now All Be In Awe Of My Upper Hand
To You Watch As I Detain..
I Swallow Time, Twenty Years
Of Your Life, I Have Obtained.
Sorry In A Cell, With The Rest Of The Dogs
I Do Nothing But Wait.
I'm Being Fed Shit, Tormented, Such Hate.
Bashed, Beaten, Battered, Some Inmates Here
Just Cannot Defend Their Lives.
That For Me, The Luxury In Here Is Only To Die.

Now You're In, Here To Stay
Life Sentence, Convicted, And Now You
Must Pay.
So Watch Your Back And All That You've Got.
Stealer's Take, Killers Kill, But Usually In The Dark
Cold And Empty Grey Matter Of Your Brain
Would Spray.
Unpleasant Taste It Leaves In Your Mouth.
This Place Is Hell, This Place Is What We Call.
World In A World
And You Fear This Fucking!
World In A World
Guilty You'll Rot.

Warden Hates Because He's Playing The Part
He Makes His Point By Turning Guns
On The Unarmed.
Or Solitary Confinement They'll Keep You
You Resist And I'll have to beat ya
A Battered Mess, And Oh I Regret
When You're In Here Slop Is All You'll Be Fed.
And When You're Tired And Needing Some Sleep
The Cement Floor Is All They Feel You Need.
World In A World
And You Will Fear This Fucking.
World In A World
Guilty You'll Rot.
World In A World
Held Out Of All Sight.
World In A World.
To Be Here Is To Die!

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 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
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.

Amazing
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.
