This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Moving like a dancing bear
It's in my blood
Falling down the marble stairs
It's in my blood
Oh my dear, that's the way
I am made, I'm afraid
Those crimson tears
Drip on the floor, drip on the bar
Those crimson tears
Stain what I wore, drip on the bar
Swinging a punch, connect to the eye
It's in my blood
I've got a hunch I should just stay quiet
It's in my blood
Oh my dear, that's the way
I am made, I'm afraid
Those crimson tears
Drip on the bar, drip on the floor
Those crimson tears
Drip on the bar, stain what I wore
It's in my blood
Falling down the marble stairs
It's in my blood
Oh my dear, that's the way
I am made, I'm afraid
Those crimson tears
Drip on the floor, drip on the bar
Those crimson tears
Stain what I wore, drip on the bar
Swinging a punch, connect to the eye
It's in my blood
I've got a hunch I should just stay quiet
It's in my blood
Oh my dear, that's the way
I am made, I'm afraid
Those crimson tears
Drip on the bar, drip on the floor
Those crimson tears
Drip on the bar, stain what I wore

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.

Mm this song is beautiful. His voice is beautifully soothing...Anyone get the new Ed cd? It says its coming out in june but i talked to someone who got it in the store? VERY STRANGE. maybe im just extremely un informed..either way i cant wait.
this song is to die for ,his voice is like , i cant explain, but its beautiful and the song just puts you in a place where the lighting is low and you feel present but in a dream. this song feels like a dream.
"Oh my dear, that's the way I am made, I'm afraid"
To me this song's about somehow who thinks he's someone that maybe he's not. That he isn't meant for love and that he's just gonna hurt anyone that gets too close.
