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.
Yeah, it's Gucci
I'm drankin', fuck, I'm 'bout to throw up
I woke up with a bad bitch, took her to Thumbs Up
Chevy so hard, haters give it thumbs up
Said it's a bomb threat when they seen my Charger
I ain't sayin' I'm hard, I ain't sayin' I'm God
But I'm moonwalkin' on water
I guess it run through your family
Cause you suck dick like your mama
Lil mama got an ass so big that shit just look ridiculous
They say folks consider (?) so I put it on 6s
Damn them bad bitches right in my section, that's just how I kick it
I can buy 200 bottles, bitch, to me that's only pennies
Jack them with your foamposites on, and my coupe is on them skinnies
Got a blue and black Franck Muller watch the same color the Pennys
Ain't got time for wishin', I ain't got time for wishin'
And the next 30 days I'm tryna fuck like 80 bitches
Ain't got time for wishin', ain't got time for wishin'
30 thousand, hit the club with a lot, 80 niggas
Ain't got time for wishin', ain't got time for wishin'
2013 Caddy pickup truck on 30 inches
I ain't got time for wishin', I ain't got time for wishin'
We rolled like 80 blunts but smoked 'em all in 30 minutes
I done told you niggas, I done showed you niggas
I don't wanna have to expose these niggas
Unload, reload, explode these niggas
None of you niggas be actin' like hoes, my niggas
Ain't playin' games, no joke, my nigga
I ain't finna let shit go, my nigga
Gucci Mane a pro and I bought a Lambo
Cause back in the day I was a low down nigga
Custy ass, car washed, cutthroat niggas
I advise you, don't trust that nigga
You don't know him like I know that nigga
He'll steal your weed then smoke one with you
I don't give a damn if it's your lil sister
Hell no, I ain't finna leave my pistols
Jokes on you and I got one too
Wish a nigga would come through my front window
My esse's are heavy sunder
Middle of July I'll make it winter
Trappin' so hard, been up two days
It's 6 A.M. and I'm eatin' dinner
Mile runner, and tint the window
Countin' up cash, that's my agenda
Crammin' bricks in bumpers, fenders
Bitch you fuckin' with a winner
Ain't got time for wishin', I ain't got time for wishin'
And the next 30 days I'm tryna fuck like 80 bitches
Ain't got time for wishin', ain't got time for wishin'
30 thousand, hit the club with a lot, 80 niggas
Ain't got time for wishin', ain't got time for wishin'
2013 Caddy pickup truck on 30 inches
I ain't got time for wishin', I ain't got time for wishin'
We rolled like 80 blunts but smoked 'em all in 30 minutes, huh
I'm drankin', fuck, I'm 'bout to throw up

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.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
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
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.
