Skillet

(It's been confirmed that the aliens have landed.)

Worldwide Jesus domination
Love conquers all
Rise like a chosen generation
There's no stopping it all
Come on freaks let's go
Come on freaks let's go
Get all the freaks and let's go
Yeah yeah

We're taking over the world

We're gonna, we're gonna, we're gonna
Shake the world
We're the Alien Youth
We're taking over, over, over

Do you believe that the aliens have landed
We're everywhere you go
Infiltrate at the break of revolution
You can't stop the revival
And we're not gonna leave this world alone
And we're not gonna leave it yeah

We're taking over the world
We're the Alien Youth
We're coming for your souls
We're gonna, we're gonna, we're gonna
Shake the world
We're the Alien Youth
We're taking over, over, over
Alien Youth

Come on freaks let's go
Get all the freaks and let's go
Come on freaks let's go
Get all the freaks and let's go

And we're not gonna leave this world alone
And we're not gonna leave it yeah
And we're not gonna leave this world alone
And we're not gonna leave

We're taking over the world
We're the Alien Youth
We're coming for your souls
We're gonna, we're gonna, we're gonna
Shake the world

    this song is all about how the world looks at us as "aliens." usually, aliens are looked at as foreigners, or as people who dont really belong in an area. i think john chose the analogy as us being aliens rather well. we have to use our 'alien' powers for the good, however, and go and totally throw our society upside-down for Jesus. we have to go like a "chosen generation" for Christ and be the light for him. i like how he adds at the end of the 1st verse "there's no stoppin it all" because with the power of Jesus coming through us to the people, we can go on forever, no sin can stop us because we have the power of God flowing from us. the other way he uses aliens, which i like, is as the little scary green things from other planets who are usually out to get us for the bad. but as the alien youth, we have to be the good aliens for Jesus and be out there for their "souls" as john puts it. we shouldnt have to leave this world alone at the coming of Christ. "And we're not gonna leave this world alone" states that we need to be out there encouraging our peers and family members and friends to come with us. dont leave this world alone, and become an alien for God

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.
