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.
Can we get a motherfuckin' moment of silence
For this small chronic break?
A-hah, yeah, niggas be brown-nosin' these hoes and shit
Takin' bitches out to eat, and spendin' money on these hoes
You know what I'm sayin?
I treat a bitch like 7-Up, I never have, I never will
I tell a bitch like this
"Bitch, you without me is like Harold Melvin without the Blue Notes
You'll never go platinum"
Hey Daz, give me a light, nigga
We'd like to welcome y'all to the fabulous Carolina West
I own this motherfucker and my name is TaaDow
Y'all niggas know who I am, y'all niggas tearin' up shit
But we got somethin' old and somethin' new for y'all tonight
Put your hands together for Snoop Doggy Dogg
The Dogg Pound, and the fabulous Dramatics
It's like everywhere I look and everywhere I go
I'm hearin' motherfuckers tryin' to steal my flow
But it ain't no thing 'cause see my nigga Coolio
Put me up on the game when I step through the door
Ya know, some of these niggas is so deceptive
Usin' my styles like a contraceptive
I hope ya get burnt, seems ya haven't learnt
It's the knick knack, paddy whack, I still got the biggest sack
So put your gun away, run away, 'cause I'm back (why?)
Hit 'em up, get 'em up, split 'em up, now
Tell me what's goin' on?
It make me wanna holler, 'cause my dollars come in ozones
Known for the break-off, so take off your clothes
And quit tryin' to spit at my motherfuckin' hoes
Speakin' of hoes, I'll get to the point
You think you got the bomb 'cause I rolled you a joint
You's a flea and I'm the big Dogg
I'll scratch you off my balls with my motherfuckin' paws
Y'alls niggas better recognize (uh-huh)
And see where I'm comin' from it's still Eastside 'til I die
Why ask why? As the world keeps spinnin' to the D-O-Double-G-Y
It's a crazy, mixed-up world, it's a Doggy Dogg World
It's a Doggy Dogg World (it's a Doggy Dogg World)
Ooh (the Dogg's World, ooh)
Well, if you give me ten bitches then I'll fuck all ten
See my homie Snoop Doggy sippin' juice and Gin
Don't slip, I'm for the set trip to get papers
Styles vary, packin' flavor like Lifesavers
Ain't that somethin'? Talk shit and I'm dumpin'
I had your whole fuckin' block bumpin'
Don't sweat, but check the technique, I'm unique like China
You'll never find a bomber rhymer than this nigga behind ya
So peek-a-boo, clear the way, I'm comin' through
One, two, three, you can't see me
I'm a G like that, strapped with hit hard tactics
A fuckin' menace, usin' hoes like tennis rackets
It's on again, it's on and poppin'
All I see is green, so there ain't no stoppin'
I want to see some panties droppin'
I'm comin' from L.A., she used to chill with Dre up in Compton
(All I ever did-did was use that hoe
Chill in my Dickies, get quickies, and kick flows)
I'm dishin' out blues, I'm upsettin' like bad news
Cut-off khakis, French braids and house shoes
Kurupt's the name, so all marks are catchin' slugs
And I smoke weed for the fuck of it
Rough and rugged shit, it's unexplanatory how I gets wicked
But it's mandatory that I kick it
Check it, I'm runnin' hoes in '94, now must I prove it
Hoes call me Sugar Ray for the way I be stickin' and movin'
Prepare for a war, it's on, I'm head huntin'
Hit the button, and light shit up like Red Dawn
Peep the massacre from a verbal assassin
Murderin' with rhymes, packin' TEC-9's for some action
You really don't know, do you? You fuckin' with a hog
You can't do me, I'm goin' out looney like O-Dog
(Ooh) My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
(It's a Doggy Dogg's World)
It's your world (a Dogg's world) it's your world
The Dogg Pound rocks the party (all night long)
Uh-huh, 'til when? ('Til the early morn')
It don't stop (and uh) it don't quit (for, uh)
Tha Dogg Pound Clique (to drop the cavi' dope shit)
Diggity Daz out of the motherfuckin' cut once mo'
So grab a seat and grab your Gin and juice and check out the flow
I flip flop and serve hoes with the fat dick
'Til I die I'm still screamin' that (bitches ain't shit)
Now I'm the Mack Daddy, had he, not known about
The city where I'm from, dumb diddy dumb
As you groove to the gangster shit
The D-O-Double-G the P-O-U-N-D, the gangsta clique
Now as the Pound break it down with the gangsta funk
I can see and I can tell that's what the fuck you want
So I blaze up the chronic, so I can get high
I promise I'll smoke chronic 'til the day that I die
Ooh, it's a Dogg, it's a Dogg, it's Dogg (it's a Doggy Dogg world)
It's a Doggy Dogg world (a Dogg's world)
Just cool (ooh, it's a Doggy Dogg's world)

“Midnight” is a song about finding a love that is so true that it provides a calming feeling through every storm. Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms.
“Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.

System

Just listening for the 784,654th time....and it's just perfect in every way. Just incredible. The only reason it was remade was to scoop up a boatload of money from a more modern and accepting audience. But it is a completely different song than the other one that sounds slapped together in a few takes without a thought for the meaning.
This song captivates me still, after 50+ years. Takes me to the deep South and the poverty of some who lived thru truly hard times. And the powerful spirit of a poor young girl being abandoned to her future with only a red dress and her wits to keep her alive.
She not only stayed alive, she turned her hard beginnings around, became self sufficient, successful and someone with respect for herself. She didn't let the naysayers and judgers stop her. She's the one sitting in the drivers seat at the end.
So, not a song about a poor girl, but a song of hope and how you can rise up no matter how far down you started.
There is a huge difference between a singer who simply belts out a song that is on a page in front of them, and someone who can convey an entire experience with their voice. Telling not just a story with words, but taking you inside it and making you feel like you are there, with their interpretation.
