This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I'd be home free if I could make up my mind,
What to do about you.
One minute I think I love you, the next I'm playing the fool.
You're such a part of me, can't tear myself away from you.
Don't care what people say, I just want to be close.
I've changed my mind a thousand times,
Now it's a case of do or die.
There's no more time to reason why.
Now it's a matter of decision,
Why can't I make up my mind?
I can't stand this indecision,
I'm going out of my mind.
The world is in such a sorry state.
In the papers, in the news.
Politicians can't see their hands from their feet,
Nobody cares about the truth.
Wish I could make the world a better place for you and me.
You always run and hide, I only want to be close.
The teachers stuff your head with lies,
And make it hard to realize,
What's going on, what's wrong, what's right.
Well, it's a matter of decision,
We all must make a stand,
For everything that we believe in,
Every woman, every man.
It's a matter of decision.
A matter of decision, a matter of decision.
What to do about you.
One minute I think I love you, the next I'm playing the fool.
You're such a part of me, can't tear myself away from you.
Don't care what people say, I just want to be close.
I've changed my mind a thousand times,
Now it's a case of do or die.
There's no more time to reason why.
Now it's a matter of decision,
Why can't I make up my mind?
I can't stand this indecision,
I'm going out of my mind.
The world is in such a sorry state.
In the papers, in the news.
Politicians can't see their hands from their feet,
Nobody cares about the truth.
Wish I could make the world a better place for you and me.
You always run and hide, I only want to be close.
The teachers stuff your head with lies,
And make it hard to realize,
What's going on, what's wrong, what's right.
Well, it's a matter of decision,
We all must make a stand,
For everything that we believe in,
Every woman, every man.
It's a matter of decision.
A matter of decision, a matter of decision.

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'

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/
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
