This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
you came up from the ground
from a million little pieces
you're a pretty human being
yeah you're a pretty human being,
when it all comes crashing down
try to understand your meaning
no one said it would be easy
this living it ain't easy
and you were sewn together
with a tapestry of molecules
a billion baby galaxies
and wide open spaces
and every thing you need is here
everything you fear is here
and it's holding you up
it just keeps holding you up
you came up from the ground
from a million little pieces
you're a pretty human being
yeah you're pretty human being
when it all comes crashing down
try to understand your meaning
no one said it would be easy
this living it ain't easy
from a million little pieces
you're a pretty human being
yeah you're a pretty human being,
when it all comes crashing down
try to understand your meaning
no one said it would be easy
this living it ain't easy
and you were sewn together
with a tapestry of molecules
a billion baby galaxies
and wide open spaces
and every thing you need is here
everything you fear is here
and it's holding you up
it just keeps holding you up
you came up from the ground
from a million little pieces
you're a pretty human being
yeah you're pretty human being
when it all comes crashing down
try to understand your meaning
no one said it would be easy
this living it ain't easy

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
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.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
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.

Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
The first part is "When you came up from the ground From a million little pieces"
That repeats in the second part where you have Well, You could walk for a month around.
This album is so good, I'm going to get to see them in April and I can't wait.
Oh hey, I just bought the album from their website and it comes with a lyrics list. I'm going to go fix the lyrics I just added.
I bought thia album two days ago, and I can not stop listening to them. I love Cloud Cult, i think this is my favorite band. Craig Minnow is so lyrically creative.
craig minowa is a lyrical genius. they are too under-appreciated. and seeing them live is one of the best concert experiences you can have.
this song is one of my favorites on the new album.
brilliant
This is beautiful writing. Perfectly expresses the difficulty in knowing your world, and how the only things that there are to know are things we've made up.
this song is very sad to me, i am pretty sure he is talking about his deceased baby boy.
I think it's kind of interesting how the "million little pieces" line gets echoed in Everybody Here is a Crowd.
Regardless, this song makes me want to drive really fast when I listen to it.
