What up Charles? Hey baby
Hey Baby
Girl I been missin' you like crazy
Miss you too
These fools 'bout to make me lose my mind
I don't think I can do all this time
Now just calm down, don't lose it baby
Keep your head up man, we got you
How is lil' Junior? And my beautiful daughters?
Fine they just miss they daddy
Well did you get to talk to my lawyers?
Night and day, day and night I keep callin' em'
Yeah? Well day and night, night and day just keep callin' em'
O.K.
Yo, what up my nigga you straight? Anything I can get you?
Dis toilet paper be cuttin' my ass, I need some roles of tissue, Charmin
And man what happened to the squares yo ass promised me?
Baby, Charles lost his job, he's been strugglin'
Yeah? Is that right you lost your job, how?
Man, I been havin' troubles wit my car
Besides it's too far, price of gas, man it's hard
And on da real, shit man they be trippin up at that Wal-Mart, feel me?
Yeah man I feel you
Well baby, I got somethin' I wanna read you
It's from the kids, they wrote this poem in school
And they wanted me to bring it here and read it to you
It says, "Roses are red, violets are blue
Daddy we love you, and we miss you too"
Aww, dats sweet, but tell me why Charles
Is wearin' the shirt you bought me?
Yo bogus ass, you been doin' my best friend
Tell me how could you do it to me? Hell to, hell to, the naw
Got caught up doin' da business, now I'm servin' 5 to 10

Behind my back while I'm in da pen
Screw both, screw both of ya'll

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.
Amazing

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.
American Town
