This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Half dead, you trod through life
So dependant, a shell of a man
Follower of the blind, you have nothing
My empathy has turned to rage
My pity has turned to hatred
In selfishness you've sunken to the depths
How much lower can you go
All virtue decayed, now a memory
So many friendships lost
Only enemies
Same I feel for you, pain I feel for you
To cleanse yourself you've got to let go
Are you not alone now?
Are you not what you've become?
I want to give you the strength to overcome
The strength to reject those who have brought you down
Take a look, take a look at yourself
What do you see what have you become?
Take a look, take a look at yourself
You've gone below the bottom
You've taken their lies as your own
Tried to justify your own hypocrisy
You bear the mark of consequence
You've lied to yourself, you've lied to me
You've betrayed your own soul
Sacrificed all you were
In selfishness you've sunken to the depths
How much lower can you go
All virtue decayed, now a memory
So many friendships lost
Only enemies
Shame I feel for you, pain I feel for you
To cleanse yourself you've got to let go
Are you not alone now?
Are you not what you've become?
I want to give you the strength to overcome
The strength to reject those who have brought you down
Take a look, take a look at yourself
What do you see what have you become?
Take a look, take a look at yourself
You've gone below the bottom
So dependant, a shell of a man
Follower of the blind, you have nothing
My empathy has turned to rage
My pity has turned to hatred
In selfishness you've sunken to the depths
How much lower can you go
All virtue decayed, now a memory
So many friendships lost
Only enemies
Same I feel for you, pain I feel for you
To cleanse yourself you've got to let go
Are you not alone now?
Are you not what you've become?
I want to give you the strength to overcome
The strength to reject those who have brought you down
Take a look, take a look at yourself
What do you see what have you become?
Take a look, take a look at yourself
You've gone below the bottom
You've taken their lies as your own
Tried to justify your own hypocrisy
You bear the mark of consequence
You've lied to yourself, you've lied to me
You've betrayed your own soul
Sacrificed all you were
In selfishness you've sunken to the depths
How much lower can you go
All virtue decayed, now a memory
So many friendships lost
Only enemies
Shame I feel for you, pain I feel for you
To cleanse yourself you've got to let go
Are you not alone now?
Are you not what you've become?
I want to give you the strength to overcome
The strength to reject those who have brought you down
Take a look, take a look at yourself
What do you see what have you become?
Take a look, take a look at yourself
You've gone below the bottom

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
I Can't Go To Sleep

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.
