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.
A nigga like me be so gone
Eyes so low that a nigga gotta throw his loaks on
Wonder what them folks on?
That's what they be askin
Them kush we smoke some
Smell it when a nigga passin
We getting to the cash and
You can see a nigga shinin'
Just a lil doe, a couple hoes, a couple 2-3 diamonds
Up in the hood where you'll find him
Unless he out on the road
Every show got a bag full of blow
And patron all my niggas gettin dough
Like they supposed to
Cause life is short, and filled with lots of grief and doubt
So I just pour that bag of colorful frosty leaves on out
And free my scalp
I mean free my mind
One puff at a time
I'm up all the time
I'm up on the grind
So a big booty and a blunt would be fine
Just wanna feel fine
Just wanna kill time
Just wanna relax and think of a rhyme
Don't really like sippin
Cause I get to trippin my nigga
Just roll me a heap of that pine
And I only bring a little good for the trip,
Just in case we get blurred by 5-0
Sir you look high
I know, but I prefer my eyes low
Chorus:
Can we get higher, and higher, and higher, and higher
Can we get higher, and higher, and higher, and higher
You know we get higher, and higher, and higher
You know we get higher, So higggherr
They say easy friend
There he go talkin bout weed again
Probably becuz of all that weed in him
Yes and no
Cause and effect is what most don't know
Doin bad like Mike said
Could be doin wrong
Forget about the obvious context of the song
Put your brain where it belong
Can't we just all get a bong and tag along
And we float
We kids with hope
Better than coke we smoke
Dog please don't miss
Whatta a nigga tryna get you thinking bout
We outside becuz my mama in the house
Puff puff pass with yo bitchass
Back in high school smoked weed when I cut class
And now I'm an addict
Tragic stable enough for reclining
I be lookin down and see my jewels be shinin'
Good look Yeezy
Ya'll stay blinded
By that light
Somebody pass me a shell to the right
Yes, I'm goin
I be outtie
And you can find me
I'll be chilling back, I'll be chilling Jack
Chorus:
Can we get higher, and higher, and higher, and higher
Can we get higher, and higher, and higher, and higher
You know we get higher, and higher, and higher
You know we get higher, So higggherr
Eyes so low that a nigga gotta throw his loaks on
Wonder what them folks on?
That's what they be askin
Them kush we smoke some
Smell it when a nigga passin
We getting to the cash and
You can see a nigga shinin'
Just a lil doe, a couple hoes, a couple 2-3 diamonds
Up in the hood where you'll find him

Every show got a bag full of blow
And patron all my niggas gettin dough

Cause life is short, and filled with lots of grief and doubt
So I just pour that bag of colorful frosty leaves on out
And free my scalp

I Can't Go To Sleep

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.
Its an easy "Sunday Morning and the kids are going to school" what kind of kid goes to school on a Sunday unless its Sunday School with the church.
