@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

"Whoo! Yeah, Whoo! Yeah
Back Back,
Whoo! Yeah,
Back Back Back,"
Back from a visit
another does of bad timing
you complete the recipe
what's this you chiming *briiing*
all the celly's sound like you rhyming
underminding my movement blind that you shining
diamond in the ruff got
ice water veins got
guilt free novicane spilt milk what a shame
raining on your parade, clouds they just find you
your magnetic like the back of a houndjoo
Two in the A.M., a number I will play them, make you cry when I say them
must be the violens
ain't trying to tell you what to do
but who's taking care of you?
now baby doll
you the type to make men drink
wash it away in the shiny brass tack sink
you broke the skin lost conciennous
your room dimlighted tore with boys who act dimwitted
school day crush got
puppy love crush
you gotta way with words you talk to much
and just playin'
but what I say is true
and who's taking care of you?
put the needle on the recklessness, give it a spin
so dizzy and I might confess, perfect gentleman
he goes unarmed and harmless, brought you flowers
you act like this is as good as it gets
take off that dress, the sweet caress, the rest is to explicit
I'm saying
yo she loved the way I did it im so commited
yo my heart is my pledge, too much pussy almost lost my edge
Two in the A.M., a number I will play them, make you cry when I say them
must be the violens
aint trying to tell you what to do
but who's taking care of you?
Two in the A.M., a number I will play them, make you cry when I say them
must be the violens
aint trying to tell you what to do
but who's taking care of you?
"it goes on [until she]"
"now break it down now. [ha, ha, ho!]
check, uh."

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.

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.
Back, back, back, back for a visit Another dose of bad timing You complete the recipe What's this you chime in? (Rrrring!) All the cellie's sound like you rhymin' Undermining my movement Blinding, you're shining Diamond in the rough Got ice water veins Got guilt-free novacane Spilt milk, what a shame Raining on your parade Clouds, they just find you You're magnetic like the bat that will hound you
Two in the A.M. My number I will play them Make you cry when I say them Must be the violins Ain't tryin' to tell you what to do But who's takin' care of you?
Now babydoll You the type to make men drink Wash it away Let your shiny brass tacks sink You broke the skin Lost consciousness Your room, dim-litted Torn with boys who act dim-witted
School day crushed Got puppy-love hushed You got a way with words You talk too much I'm just playing But what I say is true And who's takin' care of you?
With a needle on the recklessness Give it a spin So dizzy, and I might confess Perfect gentleman He goes unarmed and harmless Brought you flowers You act like this is good as it gets Take off that dress The sweet carress The rest is too explicit I'm saying Yo, she loved the way I did it I'm so committed Yo, my heart is my pledge And too much pussy almost lost my edge
Two in the A.M. My number I will play them Make you cry when I say them Must be the violins Ain't tryin' to tell you what to do But who's takin' care of you? (x2)
It goes on.
