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”
And say yeah (and say yeah, and say yeah)
One night in town, my niggas 'round
Throwin' money, them bitches hit the ground
Then bring it back up, she bringin' backup
Put 'em in that black truck, so many hoes they lapped up
My niggas leanin', Diddy boppin'
Let's get it poppin', I said let's get it poppin'
Just look at how she drop it, lil' mama a certified pro
She need her own show, slide on down that pole and grind slow
Hell no, I ain't countin' my dough, I came to blow it all
And get some brains tryna find Mrs. Know-It-All
And I got my cup filled, juicy how them bucks peel
Young pimp, see I grab me up a chick and just chill
In the back of the club with a stack full a dubs
Drop it low like a pro, bring it back, that's what's up
All my dawgs up in here, plus there's hoes everywhere
Nigga, stunt like you don't care
Throw that money in the air and say yeah (yeah)
Throw that money in one hand and say yeah
Throw that money in the air and say yeah (yeah)

I'm high and drunk doin' my same dance
They call it Pocahontas, doin' that rain dance
Talkin' dough I got it, so make it rain, man
'Cause the flow retarded, sorta like that Rain Man
Borderline insane, man, look at all these dames, damn
When a nigga gettin' money, and I'm a changed man
You smell that haze scent, know my game plan
Tryna get it smackin', I ain't with that game plan
Lil' mama work for every dollar, she drop it low
Pop it slow, stop and go
Lots of smoke, we keep 'em rollin' up
Shorty mad, she came with you, she wan' roll with us
In the back of the club with a stack full a dubs
Drop it low like a pro, bring it back, that's what's up
All my dawgs up in here, plus there's hoes everywhere

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
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."
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
Ahh I freakin LOVE this song! I love how it takes alice deejay's "better off alone" beat. Soo smooth. Hopefully more people hear this song and comment on it :)
