Banks coming down
They’re taking all our hard earned pay
Lord giveth but He taketh away
And I pay our debts
But works getting hard to find
These are hard times

And I built this house
With my own two hands
Now they’re gonna take it
And five acres of land
And all of our children
Are growing up way too fast
In these hard times

But wait, oh wait!
See how the morning breaks
Its the simplest of love songs
But its all our hearts can take
And though we lose our stake
Heaven is where we make it
Even in the smallest places
Can a garden grow

I took this job
In part as a sacrifice
For my unborn children 
And my beautiful wife
And I always worked hard
On all of these sad estates
With no hard times

But wait, oh wait!
See how the morning breaks
Its the simplest of love songs
But its all our hearts can take
And though we lose our stake
Heaven is where we make it
Even in the smallest places
Can a garden grow

So wait, oh wait!
See how the morning breaks
Its the simplest of love songs
But its all our hearts can take
And though we lose our stake
Heaven is where we make
Even in the smallest places
Can a garden grow
Even in the smallest places
Can a garden grow

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.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Amazing
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.

Page
Ed Sheeran
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. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
