This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Where is your inspiration, you lost it, oh so long ago
so much for innovation, I saw this coming long before
You had no motivation, your hopes are high but trapped below,
This constant competition, we've won but your still keeping score
But I grew up, wishing on a star
Your think I won't ever get to far.
So high on dedication, it feels so good to get away,
From all this repetition, this angry town, this battleground
So now we'll break tradition, we'll leave you swimming in our wake
Without your inspiration, you can survive, you'll surely drown
But I grew up, wishing on a star
Your think I won't ever get to far
But I grew up, wishing on a star
You think I won't ever get to far
Where is your inspiration, you lost it oh so long ago
so much for innovation, I saw this coming long before
You had no motivation, your hopes are high but trapped below,
This constant competition, we've won but your still keeping score
But I grew up, wishing on a star
Your think I won't ever get to far.
So high on dedication, it feels so good to get away,
From all this repetition, this angry town, this battleground
So now we'll break tradition, we'll leave you swimming in our wake
Without your inspiration, you can survive, you'll surely drown
But I grew up, wishing on a star
Your think I won't ever get to far
But I grew up, wishing on a star
You think I won't ever get to far
Where is your inspiration, you lost it oh so long ago

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Mountain Song
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."

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.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
"you can survive, you'll surely drown"..Should be you "You wont survive..youll surely drown" so change it.
This song is exactally how I feel... You cant depend on other peoples thought or veiws on yourself. "You think i wont ever get to far". You can only depend on yourself.
Yellowcard is amazing. I mean an electric violin in a pop-punk band and making it work perfectly. That shows you have skills as a band. This song is great, and I love when all the guitars mesh and work perfect towards the end. I am in awe of that.
I agree with littlelostemoboy. This song, and every element in this song (electric violing and so on) make it so fucking good! It's very admirable.
I totally agree with Shann, its about keeping your hopes set high and going for your goals no matter what anyone says cuz most likely they arent gonna be on your side. you just have to live for yourself and do what you believe no matter what anyone says.
Ditto to the above. Sort of reminds you that just because you're living doesn't mean that you are the best you an be, especially if all you do is try to drag other people down to you and leech off them.
grrr, on audioplanet and kazaa this coems up. but its not yellowcard. another band. the song starts out "do you remember the day, when we used to play, in the backyard, hen life wasnt so hard?" someone pleeeeeeese get me those lyrics and the name of the band.
this song is for my dad cause im successful now and he never thought i would be....
