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.
Chorus:]
Cover me in blush, I'm a sugar rush
So sinful with my stare, like a millionaire
Cover me in cream, handle me with care
I'm in your every dream, so love me if you dare
It's so bizarre that you wanna be a star,
when everyone who is just doesn't quite fit in
But if you wanna make it to the very top
then you gotta get with me, I will show you how it feels
It's gonna take every inch of your skin, every bone, every limb...
Do you really wanna know?
You bought a Louis that you saw in a movie,
You just wanna go far I can take you there
If you can treat me right... I can show you the way...
I'll let you play with me.Â
[Chorus:]
Cover me in blush, I'm a sugar rush
So sinful with my stare, like a millionaire
Cover me in cream, handle me with care
I'm in your every dream, so love me if you dare
Let me take you to Chanel cuz you look like hell
Give a pretty smile now you're easy to sell
Fix you up & fix you down - lets hide your scars,
Cuz the world will start to play you like a guitarÂ
Now its time to brush your hair pretend that you care,
Just don't melt in the spotlights glare
Don't you know, life's so grand?
I'll steal your man while you're doing drugs with Lindsay Lohan
If you can treat me right I can show you the way...
I'll let you play with me.Â
Shut your mouth & lets just try to make you look more beautiful
Smoking crack with Britney Spears, yeah that's just the usual *flips hair*
It's not my fault the Jonas Brothers all took turns fucking me
Life's a bitch, say you're sorry... lick my ass on MTV
[Chorus]
Cover me in blush, I'm a sugar rush
So sinful with my stare, like a millionaire
Cover me in cream, handle me with care
I'm in your every dream, so love me if you dare
It's so bizarre that you wanna be a star,
when everyone who is just doesn't quite fit in
But if you wanna make it to the very top
then you gotta get with me, I will show you how it feels
It's gonna take every inch of your skin, every bone, every limb...
Do you really wanna know?
You bought a Louis that you saw in a movie,
You just wanna go far I can take you there
If you can treat me right... I can show you the way...
I'll let you play with me.Â
[Chorus:]
Cover me in blush, I'm a sugar rush
So sinful with my stare, like a millionaire
Cover me in cream, handle me with care
I'm in your every dream, so love me if you dare
Let me take you to Chanel cuz you look like hell
Give a pretty smile now you're easy to sell
Fix you up & fix you down - lets hide your scars,
Cuz the world will start to play you like a guitarÂ
Now its time to brush your hair pretend that you care,
Just don't melt in the spotlights glare
Don't you know, life's so grand?
I'll steal your man while you're doing drugs with Lindsay Lohan
If you can treat me right I can show you the way...
I'll let you play with me.Â
Shut your mouth & lets just try to make you look more beautiful

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.
Just A Little Lovin'
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/
Blue
Ed Sheeran

“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion.

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.
