I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Til my dragon baby stop whining
I see my influence still
Til my dragon baby stop whining
I see my influence still
Til my dragon baby stop whining
I see my influence still
Til my dragon baby stop whining
I see my influence still shining
Hit you with my ultraviolence
Skin cancer causing laser beam flow then causing riot
Oh shit! I'm gon' give you
More and more (haha) flows that's gon' help you
See who got the real raw, you can watch me wreck (huh)
For the entire nine seasons
Cold-blooded flow that got you motherfuckers freezing
You (you) must (must) find (find) your style
Identify with your own profile!
Niggas don't understand what we be talking about
Designed especially for biters who try to figure it out!
Huh, who! Ice Capades all over beats son
While I smoke your Phillies all the way down to the last one
Yo watch me skyrocket
Prop me for my flow then get your hand out my pocket
As the world keeps on turning
Killing microphones as the nigga most determined
Keeping biters fiending like this was they last serving
Stay away from fake motherfucks like Mark Fuhrman
Got your whole entire "Little House on the Prarie" burning
Stick me for my rhyme like you stuck me for my Sherlings
Yo, you must be out your fucking mind
The only thing you really need to do is chill and watch the sun shine
Til my dragon baby stop whining
I see my influence still shining
Hey, get with this here roll call
Keep my peoples moving like a U-Haul
Then I'm gonna hit you, wit that
Shit that's sure to make your dome crack
Watch me knock you down
You'll be surprised how quick the fucking word will get around
A biter came up missing and the bitch was never found, yo
I come with shit, so sure, to hit
Hit you til your motherfucking dome split
Counterfeit niggas need to sit back up off of it
And if you don't listen you deserve whatever you get
Just a moment, let me take a breather
Got you niggas sweating coal, like you caught the fever
Just to know my every move you fuck a freak psychic reader
For those who bite my flows I got to always pack my heater
Yo, I was the one that (haha) made a nigga cough (huh)
Soft (hoo!) Wait quick to turn a nigga off
Yo, I'm quick to break a niggas spine
And any effort made by those who try to take mine
Til my dragon baby stop whining
I see my influence still shining
Til my dragon baby stop whining
I see my influence still
Til my dragon baby stop whining
I see my influence still
Til my dragon baby stop whining
I see my influence still shining
I see my influence still
Til my dragon baby stop whining
I see my influence still
Til my dragon baby stop whining
I see my influence still
Til my dragon baby stop whining
I see my influence still shining
Hit you with my ultraviolence
Skin cancer causing laser beam flow then causing riot
Oh shit! I'm gon' give you
More and more (haha) flows that's gon' help you
See who got the real raw, you can watch me wreck (huh)

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.
