(Artie)
Woah, Oh, Oh, Oh (Jake: The longest)
For the longest time (Marley: Time!)
Woah, Oh, Oh, Oh (Jake: The longest)
For the longest

If you said goodbye to me tonight
There would still be music left to write

(Kitty)
What else could I do,
I'm so inspired by you
That hasn't happened
For the longest time

(Artie)
Once I thought my innocence was gone
Now I know that happiness goes on

(Kitty)
I'll take my chances
I forgot how nice romance is

(Artie)
I haven't been there for the longest time

Woah, Oh, Oh, Oh (Jake: The longest)
For the longest time (Marley: Time!)
Woah, Oh, Oh, Oh (Jake: The longest)
For the longest

(Sam)
I'm that voice you're hearing in the hall
And the greatest miracle of all

(Marley)
Is how I need you,
And how you needed me too

(Marley & Sam)
That hasn't happened for the longest time

(Ryder)
Maybe this won't last very long
But you feel so right
And I could be wrong
Maybe I've been hoping too hard
But I've gone this far
And it's more than I'd hoped for

(Jake)
Who knows how much further we'll go on
Maybe I'll be sorry when you're gone

(Marley)
I'll take my chances,
I forgot how nice romance is
I haven't been there
For the longest time

(Ryder)
I had second thoughts at the start
I said to myself, hold on to your heart
Now I know the woman that you are
You're wonderful so far
And it's more than I'd hoped for

(Artie)
I don't care what consequence it brings
I have been a fool for lesser things

(Artie & Kitty)
I want you so bad,
I think you ought to know that
I intend to hold you
For the longest time

(Artie)
Woah, Oh, Oh, Oh (Jake: The longest)
For the longest time
Woah, Oh, Oh, Oh (Jake: The longest)
For the longest

Woah, Oh, Oh, Oh (Jake: The longest)
For the longest time (Marley: Time!)
Woah, Oh, Oh, Oh (Jake: The longest)
For the longest time

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.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
