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.
Di youths dem saying justice, ah, weh dem really need overall
Di way dem deal wid mankind all mi gal start ball
Justice ah weh di youths dem need overall
Di way dem deal wid mankind
She nah go cry fi no guy inna nah 3 piece suit
Nor no pretty boy inna nuh crisp Nike boot
She nuh ball fi nah dapper, she nuh cry fi nah doop
She shed those lonely tears for di little ghetto youths weh ballin'
Stary, stary X-News and Gleaner
Foot might be dirty but his heart is much cleaner
Than those politicians fightin' down sensimillia
Get up every day dem want fi run this arena
Extra, extra read all about it
Ghetto youths in need and there is no doubt about it
If baby, want feed and can't do without it
Big 45 goin' to scout it
Youths dem ballin' out
Hear the ghetto youths dem ballin' out
Di youths dem callin' out
Hear the ghetto youths dem ballin' out
Di youths dem saying justice, ah, weh dem really need overall
Di way dem deal wid mankind all mi gal start ball
Justice ah weh di youths dem need overall
Di way dem deal wid mankind
Jack and Jill went up the hill to sell some marijuana
Buck up the fed dey broke jack crown and Jill
Came tumbling after, little Bo peep she had lost her sheep
To thief inna di pasture and if one try do dat again
It's goin' to bring disaster king of Kings and di Lord of Lords
Everlasting Ever laster inspire I and I to be a microphone blaster
We nah goin bow down to no slave master
Help di youths first and ask di question dem after
Youths dem ballin' out
Hear the ghetto youths dem ballin' out
Di youths dem callin' out

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.
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/
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
