Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Of purest evil, I am the light
Born in the abyss of ancient time
Beyond the mountains of knowledge by magic
You find me and summoned my name
Of eternal fire, I am the flame
And I flood the cosmos with sublime hate
As you're crawling out of the genesis slime
From the darkness of chaos I rise to steal your souls
From the darkness of chaos I rise
From the darkness of chaos I rise
Of chaos supreme, I'm the overlord
Summoned by glorious emperors
As they painted magic runes with their sacred blood
I aid them and made them my slaves
I am the master of your creation
Prime mover of your annihilation
But the price for my duty is much too high
Your immortal souls' sacrifice
And I'll be forever the great lord of the seven darks
Now your precious souls will be my prey
Arioch is my name
I'm the Chaos star, Ruler of the universe
Feeding on screams, smashing your dreams
Casting your souls into the deepest hell
Chaos star, Ruler of the universe
Feeding on screams, smashing your dreams
Just speak my name and forever you'll seal your fate
Summon the Chaos star
I'm the Chaos star, Ruler of the universe
Feeding on screams, smashing your dreams
Casting your souls into the deepest hell
Chaos star, Ruler of the universe
Feeding on screams, smashing your dreams
Burning your bodies to blackened bones
I'm the Chaos star, Ruler of the universe
Feeding on screams, smashing your dreams
Casting your soul into the deepest hell
I'm the Chaos star, Ruler of the universe
Feeding on screams, smashing your dreams
Just speak my name and forever you'll seal your fate
Born in the abyss of ancient time
Beyond the mountains of knowledge by magic
You find me and summoned my name
Of eternal fire, I am the flame
And I flood the cosmos with sublime hate
As you're crawling out of the genesis slime
From the darkness of chaos I rise to steal your souls
From the darkness of chaos I rise
From the darkness of chaos I rise
Of chaos supreme, I'm the overlord
Summoned by glorious emperors
As they painted magic runes with their sacred blood
I aid them and made them my slaves
I am the master of your creation
Prime mover of your annihilation
But the price for my duty is much too high
Your immortal souls' sacrifice
And I'll be forever the great lord of the seven darks
Now your precious souls will be my prey
Arioch is my name
I'm the Chaos star, Ruler of the universe
Feeding on screams, smashing your dreams
Casting your souls into the deepest hell
Chaos star, Ruler of the universe
Feeding on screams, smashing your dreams
Just speak my name and forever you'll seal your fate
Summon the Chaos star
I'm the Chaos star, Ruler of the universe
Feeding on screams, smashing your dreams
Casting your souls into the deepest hell
Chaos star, Ruler of the universe
Feeding on screams, smashing your dreams
Burning your bodies to blackened bones
I'm the Chaos star, Ruler of the universe
Feeding on screams, smashing your dreams
Casting your soul into the deepest hell
I'm the Chaos star, Ruler of the universe
Feeding on screams, smashing your dreams
Just speak my name and forever you'll seal your fate

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.
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.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
