This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Can you read my mind?
Do you know what it is you do to me?
Don't know who you are
Just a friend from another star
Here I am
Like a kid at the school
Holding hands
With a god(??) I'm a fool
Will you look at me, quivering
Like a little girl, shivering
You can see right through me
Can you read my mind?
Can you picture the things I'm thinking of?
Wondering why you are
All the wonderful things you are
You can fly
You belong to the sky
You and I
Could belong to each other
If you need a friend
I'm the one to fly to
If you need
To be loved
Here I am
Read my mind
Will you look at me, quivering
Like a little girl, shivering
You can see right through me
If you need a friend
I'm the one to fly to
If you need
To be loved
Here I am
Read my mind
Do you know what it is you do to me?
Don't know who you are
Just a friend from another star
Here I am
Like a kid at the school
Holding hands
With a god(??) I'm a fool
Will you look at me, quivering
Like a little girl, shivering
You can see right through me
Can you read my mind?
Can you picture the things I'm thinking of?
Wondering why you are
All the wonderful things you are
You can fly
You belong to the sky
You and I
Could belong to each other
If you need a friend
I'm the one to fly to
If you need
To be loved
Here I am
Read my mind
Will you look at me, quivering
Like a little girl, shivering
You can see right through me
If you need a friend
I'm the one to fly to
If you need
To be loved
Here I am
Read my mind

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.
