featuring De La Soul



(And now for my next number....I'd like to return to the classics. Perhaps

the most famous classic )



Pos:

Yo yo excuse me

I heard the word from word of mouth

That you were into booking flights

My travel agent took a trip up north

And I need to book a flight tonight

I enjoyed a getting away from day

To day stress so I need to leave

Soon. (If that's a case, I have no space

But for later I'd be sore to (leave?))

Nah, nah, that's not gonna do, I know that you

Can find another flight leavin the same

Time. I need to get aboard. I can't afford

Any penalties to sit in the main cabin

(yo, that didn't rhyme) It doesn't matter (What does? The money.

Show the cash and the ticket is yours)

Cool. Here's your green. Now I'm up outta the scene

But I'll be back to purchase some more

Jewels.



Chorus:

(I like it) More than you know it

(I like it) More than you know it

(do you want me baby) I want some mo'!

(do you want me sugar) I want some mo'!

(I like it) (I like it!)

(I like it) (I love it!)



Pos:

Now I'm comin down outta the clouds

And I'm runnin into turbulence

Need to get up, up higher again

Feelin like my soul's on fire again

Don't need to bail for safety, show me where the safe be

So I can take me another trip

To the agency, cause the travel unravel my woes

But now the craving grows

So, I need to get a ticket cause man, oh I,

Need to get aboard a plane again

Some, say I'll crash, but It's my life and cash

Gonna write it out until the end

Numb, to the lift of the whiff, (grow?), when I vacate frequently

And I got, frequent flyer when I retire to death

Tell 'em that the big see sent me

And a lot, of brothers man. I'm not the only brother

At the airport, needin a lift

Off. Was a agent til I was caught and brought

To an unfair court, pleadin the fifth

Soft, ground I prefer upon the mound

When I pinched a rock for a fee

Now others say standin at the bat isn't where it's at

But takin hits is where I'd rather be



Chorus



Dove:

Now I bagged this chick but she got me wide

Made me lose my friends and my pride

Had me cashing my checks for her

Lost all my self-respect for her

When I was broke she'd go solicit other guys

And if we made love you could see it in my eyes

My fantasy was one day to be a millionaire

So I could reassure that my baby girl was there

I could feel her love, son, I taste it in her lips

Mentally she was a trip, had a nigga whipped

A lot of other cats got strung out in the past

But I'ma get the love last, then I make a dash

That's what I thought but Miss Thing was too appealing

When I had no dough for her, she had a nigga stealing

(Hands hot) Now I'm incarcerated, honey ain't around

Into withdrawal from her, while I'm locked down

Two years down I hear she's still a thick dime

Controllin niggas pockets and even ladies' minds

(Here she come) ? with a temptin proposition

(Approaching me) But when she said "Hi" I had to listen

I'm sweatin beans cause I know I'm gonna bait her

Better do it now cause you're bound to do it later

I can't refuse her, my denial's a wish

Fell into her arm when I gave her a kiss

Cause I like it



Chorus

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

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.
