Gotta go, gotta go
Go your own way

What's it all about, what're they saying now that I'm not good for you
But they don't know I'd be there for you
How I care for you, truly doubt for you
But it's clear that

I know if I push, I push you away
So I give you time
I hope you decide what we feel is right
Can't make up your mind

Gotta go your own way, go your own way
If you're feeling doubt baby, work it out
Gotta go your own way, go your own way
If you feel the same then baby, stay

Now it's up to you what you wanna do
No one can decide if you're wrong or right
Everybody who's got their point of view
Don't know what's on the line though it's hard sometimes

I know if I push, I push you away
So I give you time
I hope you decide what we feel is right
Can't make up your mind

Gotta go your own way, go your own way
If you're feeling doubt baby, work it out
Gotta go your own way, go your own way
If you feel the same then baby, stay

If you wanna be with me
You gotta show me what I'm trying to see
You gotta give me some kind of sign
Cause Baby I can't read your mind

I know you wanna get in a zone
But nobody wanna live alone
It doesn't matter what I say
I can't make you stay

Gotta go your own way, go your own way
If you're feeling doubt baby, work it out
Gotta go your own way, go your own way
If you feel the same then baby, stay

Gotta go your own way, go your own way
If you're feeling doubt baby, work it out
Gotta go your own way, go your own way
If you feel the same then baby, stay

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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.

I Can't Go To Sleep
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.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
