Tabloid crutch or tabloid crush?
Famous players painted an absinthe rush
Van Gogh with it 'til the mandates made
Man with a schedule, I can't be late
I'm not an ambulance chaser, unless I have to be
My job's a tough one, it's garnering apathy
From the stuffed shirt mercantile system wisdom bitches
With a job that kills their brain out, played out
Talk to me and you'll find out who's cheating
Who with, who's beating and who's sick
Who's speaking to Hugh's friends
And who's being a nuisance to Ben and Jen
Or Jen and Brad and that Tomb Raider chick
And don't hate me, baby, 'cause you paid for it
I'm not a monster, no, I'm not a monster
I just do what I have to get rich

Gold-plated and razor-shaped

Brain washer, mind deleter
Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise was my idea
Arranged relationships, based on the patronage
Of millions of moviegoers, many ages and races
Big faces in places of the strangest basis
Stasis, shut the fuck up and be complacent
And buy that rag like the maid in my house
I watch Extra and wipe the fame off my mouth
And if they ask what daddy does
Tell them he holds a camera up
There's no need to name the name's names
We aren't so different, we play the same games
Like status quo for pro bono
And blackface prime time coons like
But it makes no difference if we win or lose
Elegant rouse, ooh, I'm fixing moves

Gold-plated and razor-shaped

Denzel got robbed and I'll never forget the look
He took from the ceremony, phony franchise
He had Nixon heart, I am not a crook
But I will take the statue if I win for one
I'm looking for the real killers
Jackson had a glove too, but there ain't blood on those fingers
They talk love on it, honest, they run comments
About the freak that got away in a Jeep
As always, had a Pog slammer as a young buck
A gold razor blade with the juice on the front
You're a fake Robert Blake with that pump
And Beretta did that shit, you know, with the chick he dumped
It runs through my fingers like a dead blonde's blood
CNN will blame it on a husband's gun
Pretend it ain't real, peel the vic's seal
And you'll still get that promo deal, enjoy the fruit basket

Gold-plated and razor-shaped

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
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 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.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
