In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Check this
Two cups nigga got the red in me
The Ku Klux Klan and the streets with me
Some real designers love to sleep with me
Some real designers love to sleep with me
The molly crumbs got me like a zombie
Her waist line small and that booty look dummy
She just did some alcohol and she about to go dummy
You can check my catalog I'mma keep some money coming
I done kept the water all night, fuck it keep it running
Gotta call a no fly treaty, 'cause of my necklace
Get a lotta money put your main bitch on the sideline
Main bitch on the sideline
Get a lotta money put your main bitch on the sideline
I just get them bands, get them Xans, do a shoutout
I just get them bands and I like to give them a shoutout
I just get them Xans and the light becomes a shadow
I just fucked a fan and she asked me for a shoutout
Nigga talking crazy tryna get the club shot up
I just had some coke inside the freezer tryna come up
Everything seems different when you spark a blunt up
Do it gang territory, dare you try to run up
Dare you try to run up, I dare you try to run up
I dare you try to run up
I just bring my bands up on a weekday
Gotta keep the hammer on the seat baby
I gotta switch my gun up every week baby
'Til I see a billion dollars ain't complete baby
See a trillion dollars ain't complete baby
(See a trillion dollars ain't complete baby)
Dare you try to run up, boy I dare you try to run up
I, I dare you try to run up
Christian L's on me this is not a fairy tale
A couple bales on me I just got it out the mail
Dom Perignon let the champagne spill
We just get the funds then hit you with the steel
Upper echelon we will never miss a meal
You gotta use Waze just to get through the crib
Shawty fell in love with the codeine and pills
Shawty whip around and say it hit a half a mill
Main bitch on the sideline
Get a lotta money put your main bitch on the sideline
I just get them bands, get them Xans, do a shoutout
I just get them bands, get them Xans, do a shoutout
I just get them Xans and the light becomes a shadow
I just fucked a fan and she asked me for a shoutout
Nigga talking crazy tryna get the club shot up
I just had some coke inside the freezer tryna come up
Everything seems different when you spark a blunt up
Do it gang territory, dare you try to run up
Dare you try to run up, I dare you try to run up
I, I dare you try to run up
I just bring my bands up on a weekday
Gotta keep the hammer on the seat
I gotta switch my gun up every week baby
'Til I see a billion dollars ain't complete baby
See a trillion dollars ain't complete baby
(See a trillion dollars ain't complete baby)
Dare you try to run up, boy I dare you try to run up
I, I dare you try to run up
Off white leather gotta pop collars
Shawty bust it up, want top dollar
Caught a brown bad, bought her Margiela
I did the whole dance and said "you exceptional"
Main bitch on the sideline
Get a lotta money put your main bitch on the sideline
I just get them bands, get them xans, do a shoutout
I just get them bands and

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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."

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.
