This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
When your head's exploding and your vision blurred
The teasing torture when anger is spurred
When the bats in your belfry won't let you sleep
Incessant insomnia, or does it go more deep?
Yet it's in all of us; catch me if I fall
The seed of madness, the seed of madness
It's in your body - a genetic cruelty
Seed of madness, seed of madness
Into the abyss between love and hate
Happiness don't come on a plate
Hold your head up high and breathe in hope
Else you'll find yourself dangling on the end of a rope
In the midnight hour when your body screams
Make sure those voices are in your dreams
With a knife in her back and blood on your hands
Your twisted mind just can't comprehend
The teasing torture when anger is spurred
When the bats in your belfry won't let you sleep
Incessant insomnia, or does it go more deep?
Yet it's in all of us; catch me if I fall
The seed of madness, the seed of madness
It's in your body - a genetic cruelty
Seed of madness, seed of madness
Into the abyss between love and hate
Happiness don't come on a plate
Hold your head up high and breathe in hope
Else you'll find yourself dangling on the end of a rope
In the midnight hour when your body screams
Make sure those voices are in your dreams
With a knife in her back and blood on your hands
Your twisted mind just can't comprehend

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.

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.
