This planet is turning our tires are burning
Start up the engines I'm ready to go
You caused a commotion and got my devotion
We should be Bonnie and Clyde on the road
I feel fascination a kicking sensation
This is my turn and I'm striking for gold
Let's fly this truck through the sky
Worlds colliding we keep on riding

[Chorus:]
Ooh oh chariots of fire
Higher and higher ascending above
Ooh oh chariots of fire
Share my desire creation of love
Ooh oh chariots of fire
Higher and higher ascending above
Ooh oh chariots of fire
Share my desire creation of love

It's my dedication to rule aviation
I'm certified with the highest degree
I strive for perfection you had the connection
Now I've got God shine his light down on me
It ain't necessary to call Virgin Mary
When you have the gift to set my spirit free
Let's take this train through the sky
Worlds colliding we keep on riding

[Chorus:]

Those were the halcyon days
The days when we walked on the scene
Those were the halcyon nights
The lights shining bright on the screen
When we dreamed of creating machines
Waving sounds to our dreams
I feel fascination a kicking sensation
This is my turn and I'm striking for gold
Let's fly this truck through the sky
Worlds colliding we keep on riding
Ooh oh chariots of fire
Higher and higher ascending above

[Chorus:]

It's a brand new day things will go my way
Every night I pray every time I say
It's a brand new day things will go my way
Every night I pray every time I say

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
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
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.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
