This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I'm in so deep Omar Epps can relate to my situation on a real
Pain ain't the emotion I wanna feel
But I'm thriving off it so it's only right, I like this topic
I'll be on a hill, keeping my head above water
I can't afford to ever get caught in a corner
So I move with the force of a sorcerer
It's dark when I'm about just me myself and my shadow
I'm parro, running out of ammo
And it seems like everyone around me's on the same path so it's narrow
The less then the better, a more proof for the last one left
So they don't leave me as wet as an umbrella
I play fool to catch wise, are they ever gonna guess I'm clever?
How can I be at my best with this pressure?
I got a lot to loose but when I watch the news
My mind's infected with terror
No wonder I'm under stress, I got my door kicked off by a bunch of feds
And when they left It looked like I had rave
And invited more than a hundred guests (ohh)
I should of bust the back door and jump the fence
It easy when you look back, shoulda, woulda, coulda
But I bet you can't bring should woulda could back
Back to fifteen I've had strength in my days
I said to myself, that I'm more than a hood track
Whoa, you can drag me in the deep ends
Whoa, but you will never drown me out
Whoa, you can drag me in the deep ends
Whoa, but you will never drown me out, out, out
You won't drown me out, out, out
You won't drown me out
You can't ever drown me out, the water supply's too low
And I'm around about 6'1, ten stone
I've never seen someone drown without
A sufficient amount of liquid in their lungs
A minor MC, my mouth can vouch
Do I sound like I'm choking?
Seriously, do I sound like I'm joking?
I'm floating, even though they wanna send me to the bottom of the ocean (oh)
But I am a ship that's sunk many years, I'm maintaining
Plain sailing, no commotion (whoa)
Like a dolphin when it's in motion
But I can't break me, so why would I show them I'm broken?
No real shit, throw my skin ain't close to corrosion
Fuck 'em all, this ain't tug of war
Still don't get roped in the open, I don't wanna reveal my violent side
But I swear that I will soon if the Lord above don't provide a sign
Then I'ma kill you, arm for arm, eye for eye
Nah, I just wanna live my life
But you don't wanna see this guy survive
Whoa, you can drag me in the deep ends
Whoa, but you will never drown me out
Whoa, you can drag me in the deep ends
Whoa, but you will never drown me out, out, out
You won't drown me out, out, out
You won't drown me out
Whoa, you can drag me in the deep ends
Whoa, but you will never drown me out
Whoa, you can drag me in the deep ends
Whoa, but you will never drown me out, out, out
You won't drown me out, out, out
You won't drown me out
Pain ain't the emotion I wanna feel
But I'm thriving off it so it's only right, I like this topic
I'll be on a hill, keeping my head above water
I can't afford to ever get caught in a corner
So I move with the force of a sorcerer
It's dark when I'm about just me myself and my shadow

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
Yo La Tengo
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,
I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
Wu-Tang Clan
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.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
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/
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
