Won't permit you to get me down
Because I'm on my stride
And I'll keep my pride
No time for you to analyze
Don't try to read my mind
You'll never get it right

Prejudice makes us less
And I, I will not be defined
I will not justify
Feeling blessed and serene you see
'Cause I believe in me
Just wait and see

It's showtime
Turn it on, gonna see me shine
I won't stop, I'm the one starring in my life
It's go time, starting right now
Watch me take a bow

It's so hot
Living large, standing in the light
I won't drop, gonna get to the finish line
It's showtime, starting right now
Watch me take a bow

People freak when they think you're weak
Because you change your mind
Just take another try

My decisions are mine all mine
Since when is that a crime?
I'm gonna be just fine
Win or lose it's for me to choose
I feel like breaking rules
I won't be no one's fool

Right or wrong, bring it on
'Cause I, I've only got one life
Just one life


It's showtime
Turn it on, gonna see me shine
I won't stop, I'm the one starring in my life
It's go time, starting right now
Watch me take a bow

It's so hot
Living large, standing in the light
I won't drop, gonna get to the finish line
It's showtime, starting right now
Watch me take a bow

Can you listen to this
Without your prejudice
Gotta follow your heart
Or you'll keep us apart
Won't you open your mind?

It's showtime
Turn it on, gonna see me shine
I won't stop, I'm the one starring in my life
It's go time, starting right now
Watch me take a bow

It's so hot
Living large, standing in the light
I won't drop, gonna get to the finish line
It's showtime, starting right now
Watch me take a bow

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
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.

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
“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.
