Home is calling me, I hear it in the engines humming.
Upon my tracks a storm is coming, but I'm not running.
I'll be safely in their arms when it comes knocking.
And home is calling me, asking me to lay my head,
Release my thoughts and let them tread the softest ground.
I am keen to watch them running for the hills, and I may join them,dismiss my duties.
Me & my demons are daring beauties.
And at the horizon we'd stand with hope in our hands,casting our shadows.
Tell every man we are free.
We are free.
I do not want a war, but if you've come to claim my land,
I cannot swear I'll be so kind to give in.
I have dug my heart & soul into this soil, but you are wearing me down.
I need to find a place to fall.
I cannot rebuild these walls with every shell.
I am asking you to let me be myself; for if I join you, took up your duty,
(You & your demons, obsessed with beauty)
So soon would I run to the river & take off my shoes, swim for my life & call to the sky, "Set me free! Set me free!"
I had to leave.
Return to where I speak the truth.
Return to where I left my youth.
It still plays on, home is calling me.
Home is calling me.
Home is calling me.
Home is calling me.

Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

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.

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.
