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.
There is no ethereal war no more children
We've taken those devils and buried them down
There is no hyperial war no more brethren
We've taken bad angels and conquered them now
So all you soldiers can turn to healing now
All of you takers can start to give
All of you lovers must start your loving now
Search for the reason, Jah, let us live
The reason Jah gonna give
There is no ethereal war no more their swords
Are melted and angels have exiled their lords
Those for the cause rewards and applause
Abundantly gifted with ointment for sores
And the refugees have been treated with care
'Cause they ain't had a very nice time in there
All the hostages spiritually blessed and repaired
'Cause it's hard to find hope when you've lived in despair
And all you hunters can stop your hunting now
All of you judges must stop your judge
All of you builders can start your building now
Giving thanks and praise for the flood
Thanks and praise for Jah's love
There is no reason to fight and no reason to hate
No reason to lie and no reason to fake
No reason for masks and condemning of names
No resentment is needed nor no one to blame
There's a reason why to this great earth we all came
And we got different strengths but we all worth the same
Just like sun photosynthesize rice on the plain
We all need the earth and we all need the rain
So all you fighters can turn to growing now
All you peace keepers must turn to the land
All of you players can start your playing now
We gonna build Zion up with our hands
Build Zion up by Jah's plans
We've taken those devils and buried them down
There is no hyperial war no more brethren
We've taken bad angels and conquered them now
So all you soldiers can turn to healing now
All of you takers can start to give
All of you lovers must start your loving now
Search for the reason, Jah, let us live
The reason Jah gonna give
There is no ethereal war no more their swords
Are melted and angels have exiled their lords
Those for the cause rewards and applause
Abundantly gifted with ointment for sores
And the refugees have been treated with care
'Cause they ain't had a very nice time in there
All the hostages spiritually blessed and repaired
'Cause it's hard to find hope when you've lived in despair
And all you hunters can stop your hunting now
All of you judges must stop your judge
All of you builders can start your building now
Giving thanks and praise for the flood
Thanks and praise for Jah's love
There is no reason to fight and no reason to hate
No reason to lie and no reason to fake
No reason for masks and condemning of names
No resentment is needed nor no one to blame
There's a reason why to this great earth we all came
And we got different strengths but we all worth the same
Just like sun photosynthesize rice on the plain
We all need the earth and we all need the rain
So all you fighters can turn to growing now
All you peace keepers must turn to the land
All of you players can start your playing now
We gonna build Zion up with our hands
Build Zion up by Jah's plans

Holiday

Bee Gees
@[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.

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.
