You are my soldiers
Just bounce

[Chorus: x4]
When we bounce, you bounce
Lets make the club bounce

To the east what you doin'?
We bouncin', we bouncin'
To the west what you doin'?
We bouncin', we bouncin'
To the north what you doin'?
We bouncin', we bouncin'
To the south what you doin'?
We bouncin', we bouncin'

I, come to deliver, a message so clear
Do or die, the consequences, ain't nothing to fear
Who am I?
I be the giver, I ride with the wind
I'm beginning to redeliver, One deeper within
If you believe, won't wait for long
Better stop, look and listen and pay attention to what's goin on
Analyze and disguise before the bass is low
Recognize, the truth lies within this danger zone
When I say danger, my body emits
Chemicals straight to the brain so that I'm fully equipped
I contain my mental anger
By letting it rip
From the chords in my pores
To the rhymes I commit

[Chorus: x4]

To the east what you doin'?
We bouncin', we bouncin'
To the west what you doin'?
We bouncin', we bouncin'
To the north what you doin'?
We bouncin', we bouncin'
To the south what you doin'?
We bouncin', we bouncin'

A military mind
I pull up to the curb
Right to the valet
Then I walk right in the entrance
And the crowd is yelling "hey"
I got paid, so lets play, send the bartender my way
They say that money talks and I sure got a lot to say
Ask about me in the south
Mother nature say she proud
I been known to make it rain
Ben and Franklin erase the droubt
We don't smack outside the club
I'm the hustle poster child
I Walk up to bank tellers
Then I pull my pistols out
Got so much jewelry security gon' have to search me
Most people friendly but the ones who ain't can never hurt me
A semi on the side, I'ma call it Eddie Murphy
Bet my pockets speak another language like: Iebadirtay
She thought it was a salad
She noticed all the karots
So vegetarian, all this green and all this cabbage
And I'm feelin' like I'm the baddest
Get it if you wanna grab it
No need for words cuz 'hustle' to me is automatic

[Chorus: x4]

To the east what you doin'?
We bouncin', we bouncin'
To the west what you doin'?
We bouncin', we bouncin'
To the north what you doin'?
We bouncin', we bouncin'
To the south what you doin'?
We bouncin', we bouncin'

[Verse 3]
I hear em talking money but I ain't seen nuthin
I'll be bumpin at the gum shoutin: 'He ain't sayin nuthin'
First of all: I'm a ganster, I'm gon take yours
Big Willie in the game, I'm a pimp and you're my whore
I declare, I swear, I ain't seen nuthin hot
They keep talkin' bout the cash, that's all these n**gas got
I dun told ya'll n**gas: 'I'm back once again'
Here to take all these b*tches
I ain't lookin for no friends
I'm a grinder, hustler, made it, done it
I'm the one that ain't scared
Ya'll n**gas don't want it
Got a personal vendetta against all these mo-foes
Mentality of a killa on all these weak ho's

[Chorus: x4]

To the east what you doin'?
We bouncin', we bouncin'
To the west what you doin'?
We bouncin', we bouncin'
To the north what you doin'?
We bouncin', we bouncin'
To the south what you doin'?
We bouncin', we bouncin'

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
