Yo Bret, Sean, Muggs
Let's rock this one for the East

(Na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na)

Grandmixer Muggs, Bret E. and Sean E.B.
Your city needs your voice most definitely
To keep the party pumpin' like the heart of a tiger
Grandmixer is the earth, Sean the air, Bret the fire

Combination of the elements, we're universal
Because we're gettin' paid sayin' we're commercial
But accept the fact that we're a household appliance
Muggs adds the scratch, we drop the science

Think that I'm lyin'? Listen to it in your room
You'll notice that it's pumpin' with a definite boom
And let me tell ya, I'm sure to convince
Because it's one half Bouldin' y'all, and the other half Ince

Whip MC's, don't try to criticize
Step to me yo, and I will victimize
Showin' no sympathy, you know what I will be
Behold my lyrics yo, and now you pray to me

In astonishment, you come and compliment
Back to the drawing board yo, cause you're irrelevant
Write a rhyme, you're tryin' to catch me
Climbin' the barriers of conquer MC

So you make it and return to find
I'm still a step ahead so hit the back of the line
If we meet again it will be our last bout
Strike one, strike two, third strike you're out

Your posse roll up, I won't even clinch
'Cause I'm one half Bouldin' and the other half Ince

Charles Earnest Bouldin', Sandra [middle name] Ince
Produced two rhyme creators who been rockin' ever since
Birth and you know from the time we were born
To expect success the minds were strong

Raised on Linden, building one, 570
As you already know apartment 7A
For all you scroungy suckers whose minds are dense
My father's last name Bouldin', my mother's maiden name Ince

Last name Bouldin' and my first name's Bret
Don't' walk on me boy, cause you pose no threat
To Bret E.B. speakin' words of a prophet
Peace is my answer, violence we should stop it

Took a trip to Mexicali, threw on my sombrero
Kickin' it in a '68 Camarro
Red and Convertible, cause that's my style
Got a girl in every seat, I'm feelin' kinda wild

Always talkin' knowledge with a touch of intellect
And every time you hear the voice the name you shall respect
So yo, and let me tell you just how I live
I gets you in the mood, make you all festive

Walk on me boy, nothin' to it but to do it
Had to think about it? Yo, then pursue it
I am the engine and you are the kaboost
And if you were a snneak I'd be a mongoose

'Cause I am the king, Sean is the prince
And it's one half Bouldin' y'all, and the other half Ince

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.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

Magical
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.
