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.
Four in the morning she appeared there to me
Said she had the secret to life
She got into my heart and said that you'll believe
Felt my neck and then opened my eyes
But I've seen the light
I've seen the light, you're the one girl
And when it hit me, it felt like lightning
And when it hit me I wasn't frightened
Cause I've seen the light
Things will soon change, you will see, you will see
The light will chase away the dark
She said you'll be okay if you listen to me
All the superstars are burning out
But I've seen the light
I've seen the light, you're the one girl
And when it hit me, it felt like lightning
And when it hit me I wasn't frightened
Cause I've seen the light
Yes we've got dreams, something you will not believe
The desert was hot, the air was dry
She gave me instruction to play my magic keys
And magic treats starts falling from the sky
But I've seen the light
I've seen the light, you're the one girl
And when it hit me, it felt like lightning
And when it hit me I wasn't frightened
Cause I've seen the light
I can smell it when I go outside
And then it just pours
It's gives us peace
Then all in the town is quiet
That's what rain's for
All the kids see rain and scream 'oh no!'
Run off the bus and they would just stay in
Me I love how rain fills the potholes
Me and (?) that's what we played in
Ever wonder exactly where the sun goes
Did it go or did something shade it
The sun gives light cause it's the one tho
Rain gives life 'cause it is amazing
Inside of clouds
Inside of clouds
Sky proves there's life
Said she had the secret to life
She got into my heart and said that you'll believe
Felt my neck and then opened my eyes
But I've seen the light
I've seen the light, you're the one girl
And when it hit me, it felt like lightning
And when it hit me I wasn't frightened
Cause I've seen the light
Things will soon change, you will see, you will see
The light will chase away the dark
She said you'll be okay if you listen to me
All the superstars are burning out
But I've seen the light
I've seen the light, you're the one girl
And when it hit me, it felt like lightning
And when it hit me I wasn't frightened
Cause I've seen the light
Yes we've got dreams, something you will not believe
The desert was hot, the air was dry
She gave me instruction to play my magic keys
And magic treats starts falling from the sky
But I've seen the light
I've seen the light, you're the one girl
And when it hit me, it felt like lightning
And when it hit me I wasn't frightened
Cause I've seen the light
I can smell it when I go outside
And then it just pours
It's gives us peace
Then all in the town is quiet
That's what rain's for
All the kids see rain and scream 'oh no!'
Run off the bus and they would just stay in
Me I love how rain fills the potholes
Me and (?) that's what we played in
Ever wonder exactly where the sun goes
Did it go or did something shade it
The sun gives light cause it's the one tho
Rain gives life 'cause it is amazing
Inside of clouds
Inside of clouds
Sky proves there's life

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
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
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. 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.
