@[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.
*God, I thought I loved you so. [x2]*
They done let in the skinny jean wearer
‘fro for days in the old A A
balls so low most fools couldnt price me
silently stunt with a blunt full of P.E. (pineapple express)
and I guess you know me,
been in NY so long got Tri-State family
especially Brooklyn shout out to the Madi’s
my bloodline runs deep, unless I don’t sleep
figure it’s my pops keeping me awake
help me keep my mind off the clouds for reality
these muthaf-ckers can’t fathom the wizardry
slow mo' brain thats backwards cowards
took a shower your attitude stinks
wanna know what I think?
[Chorus]
Oh ohhh, oh,
hey my mojo so dope b-tch
hey my mojo so dope
yep we live it, live it
yeh we on it, on it
give a f-ck about your lifestyle,
give a f-ck about a muthaf-cking lifestyle cause n-gga
we, we live this sh-t
Oh ohhh, oh,
give a f-ck about your lifestyle,
give a f-ck about a muthaf-cking lifestyle cause n-gga
[Kid Cudi - Verse 2]
I live through words not metaphors
so I'll pass to be the rest of the freshmen
playful tough talk is often the fave
till I came like 'Pac's art and said true things
a whole new legion of some n-ggas
aiming high pass the idea slangin
praise Allah for keeping me away man
I lot of my n-ggas fell victim to the dope game
some things will never be same
wish I could tell my brother something for some motivation
and get him out that gutter
he’s leaving behind a family and a mother
damn you must understand when I speak about a song its how I really am
yeah this is how I really think
you could see what I see, yes I really blink
yes that's how I really drink
I really do rage
my demons out the cage 'bout most of the day
before I became the age to even rage
I was drowning them sorrows with some OE (old english malt liquor) n-gga
[Chorus]
Hey, we live this sh-t.

Mountain Song

Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
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/

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
He's sampling Claustrophobia from the Choir of Young Believers.
