This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Do you remember the days
When living was meant to be free
Not looking for fortune,
not looking for fame
The beauty of life was the key
We lived as one to conquer the world
A thousand dreams to come true
We knew in the end we'll find
The meaning of life and the truth
Once proud and full of passion
we formed a better world
We fought against oppression
and wisdom was our sword
On the path of glory
we searched the rainbows end
Lives meant to share,
where's the sign that we'd sent?
On sad wings of destiny
We're kings without a throne
If you believe in unity
Believe, 'cause you're not alone
Sad wings of destiny
The haunting thoughts of pain
The world's a patient majesty, but believe
The time, the time will take its toll
Now it's the time for a change
The days of your childhood are gone
The fool and the wise man
will burn at the stake
Confusion remaining too long
Violence and hate I won't see anymore
The innocent victims of fate
The prophets have written
their words on the wall
Wake up before it's too late
On the path of glory
we searched the rainbows end
Lives meant to share,
where's the sign that we'd sent?
On sad wings of destiny
We're kings without a throne
If you believe in unity
Believe, 'cause you're not alone
Sad wings of destiny
The haunting thoughts of pain
The world's a patient majesty, but believe
Believe, if you won't change your mind
All will remain the same
And soon, we'll find a common end
On the path of glory
we'll search the rainbows end
Lives meant to share,
where's the sign that we'd sent?
On sad wings of destiny
We're kings without a throne
If you believe in unity
Believe, 'cause you're not alone
Sweet child of innocence
Are you drowning in your tears?
The time has come for you my friend
Don't hide from evil made by your own hands
Let us try to fly again
One day we'll rise again
On wings of hope to be free
When living was meant to be free
Not looking for fortune,
not looking for fame
The beauty of life was the key
We lived as one to conquer the world
A thousand dreams to come true
We knew in the end we'll find
The meaning of life and the truth
Once proud and full of passion
we formed a better world
We fought against oppression
and wisdom was our sword
On the path of glory
we searched the rainbows end
Lives meant to share,
where's the sign that we'd sent?
On sad wings of destiny
We're kings without a throne
If you believe in unity
Believe, 'cause you're not alone
Sad wings of destiny
The haunting thoughts of pain
The world's a patient majesty, but believe
The time, the time will take its toll
Now it's the time for a change
The days of your childhood are gone
The fool and the wise man
will burn at the stake
Confusion remaining too long
Violence and hate I won't see anymore
The innocent victims of fate
The prophets have written
their words on the wall
Wake up before it's too late
On the path of glory
we searched the rainbows end
Lives meant to share,
where's the sign that we'd sent?
On sad wings of destiny
We're kings without a throne
If you believe in unity
Believe, 'cause you're not alone
Sad wings of destiny
The haunting thoughts of pain
The world's a patient majesty, but believe
Believe, if you won't change your mind
All will remain the same
And soon, we'll find a common end
On the path of glory
we'll search the rainbows end
Lives meant to share,
where's the sign that we'd sent?
On sad wings of destiny
We're kings without a throne
If you believe in unity
Believe, 'cause you're not alone
Sweet child of innocence
Are you drowning in your tears?
The time has come for you my friend
Don't hide from evil made by your own hands
Let us try to fly again
One day we'll rise again
On wings of hope to be free

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri

Hayalperest
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.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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.

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.
Living is made for the beauty of it, not for fortune or fame. Life is made for finding the truth and the meaning to live as one(united) and to face the evil.
