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”
I've been thinking that you and I just need a little time
I've been thinking
I'll do this the, the right way and dig myself out of this hole
It's frightening but I don't know which way I can go
It might be that everyone around me seems cold
And I think I need to do it all on my own
And if I try to turn my life back around
It's so hard 'cause I'm on a path I've never been down
And I've got to think that this might be
The one way that I can go
You had faith in me and this is all for you
And I've been thinking that you and I, we just need a little time
We'll figure out where we both went wrong and we'll make it right
I've been wishing on every star that's hanging up in the sky
Just hoping that I can find a little bit of time
Now that I'm, I'm stuck in this city with spring rolling in
It's so hard 'cause I don't know where to begin
There's just never much time these days
And I've been up all night trying to say
I've got, I've got to get this all off my chest
I am so sick of living my life in suspense
I'm focused on getting my life rearranged
You're goddamn right, my life has changed
You had faith in me and this is all for you
And I've been thinking that you and I, we just need a little time
We'll figure out where we both went wrong and we'll make it right
I've been wishing on every star that's hanging up in the sky
Just hoping that I can find a little bit of time
All at once my world collides
All at once my world collides
There's so much more that I wanted to say
I guess it didn't turn out that way
So I'll step back and never let go to the
Constant hope I'm never alone
And now I've been thinking that you and I, we just need a little time
We'll figure out where we both went wrong and we'll make it right
I've been wishing on every star that's hanging up in the sky
Just hoping that I can find a little bit of time
I've been thinking
I'll do this the, the right way and dig myself out of this hole
It's frightening but I don't know which way I can go
It might be that everyone around me seems cold
And I think I need to do it all on my own
And if I try to turn my life back around
It's so hard 'cause I'm on a path I've never been down
And I've got to think that this might be
The one way that I can go
You had faith in me and this is all for you
And I've been thinking that you and I, we just need a little time
We'll figure out where we both went wrong and we'll make it right
I've been wishing on every star that's hanging up in the sky
Just hoping that I can find a little bit of time
Now that I'm, I'm stuck in this city with spring rolling in
It's so hard 'cause I don't know where to begin
There's just never much time these days
And I've been up all night trying to say
I've got, I've got to get this all off my chest
I am so sick of living my life in suspense
I'm focused on getting my life rearranged
You're goddamn right, my life has changed
You had faith in me and this is all for you
And I've been thinking that you and I, we just need a little time
We'll figure out where we both went wrong and we'll make it right
I've been wishing on every star that's hanging up in the sky
Just hoping that I can find a little bit of time
All at once my world collides
All at once my world collides
There's so much more that I wanted to say
I guess it didn't turn out that way
So I'll step back and never let go to the
Constant hope I'm never alone
And now I've been thinking that you and I, we just need a little time

I've been wishing on every star that's hanging up in the sky
Just hoping that I can find a little bit of time

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
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.
In my opinion, the best song on their new album. "We All Need A Reason To Believe" is so good, as was their other album. This song can be interpreted in so many ways, but it relates to me in telling one of my very good friends that I was totally in love with them for two years, but they don't truly understand the depth and meaning of how much I do. Valencia is amazing, and they are unique in so many ways. Great job, koumika, I hadn't figured out what 'all at once my world collides', was. Thanks for posting them :D
