Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Well he left here
With his backpack
And his big pants hanging down
Took a trip went
Overseas and
Caught disease that made him smile
Now he's out of
Home town and
Gonna bring it to the ground
Long flights and
Shitfights he'll
Take it all in his stride
The cat's out of the bag
He's off and racing
Was down but now
Look at all that he knows
He got down off his shelf
No time be wasting
Look round right now
He's a pocket dynamo
Well he got there
In the morning
Checked bags and he hit the town
Made a friend a
Bartender
By night he was falling down
Better watch him
Can't stop him
He's on a mission now
Nose ring through
Back tattoo
When is he coming home
The cat's out of the bag
He's off and racing
Was down but now
Look at all that he knows
He got down off his shelf
No time be wasting
Look round right now
He's a pocket dynamo
hes off and racing
hes off and racing
no time be wasting
hes off and racing
we seen him......?
The cat's out of the bag
He's off and racing
Was down but now
Look at all that he knows
He got down off his shelf
No time be wasting
Look round right now
He's a pocket dynamo
The cat's out of the bag
He's off and racing
Was down but now
Look at all that he knows
He got down off his shelf
No time be wasting
Look round right now
He's a pocket
With his backpack
And his big pants hanging down
Took a trip went
Overseas and
Caught disease that made him smile
Now he's out of
Home town and
Gonna bring it to the ground
Long flights and
Shitfights he'll
Take it all in his stride
The cat's out of the bag
He's off and racing
Was down but now
Look at all that he knows
He got down off his shelf
No time be wasting
Look round right now
He's a pocket dynamo
Well he got there
In the morning
Checked bags and he hit the town
Made a friend a
Bartender
By night he was falling down
Better watch him
Can't stop him
He's on a mission now
Nose ring through
Back tattoo
When is he coming home
The cat's out of the bag
He's off and racing
Was down but now
Look at all that he knows
He got down off his shelf
No time be wasting
Look round right now
He's a pocket dynamo
hes off and racing
hes off and racing
no time be wasting
hes off and racing
we seen him......?
The cat's out of the bag
He's off and racing
Was down but now
Look at all that he knows
He got down off his shelf
No time be wasting
Look round right now
He's a pocket dynamo
The cat's out of the bag
He's off and racing
Was down but now
Look at all that he knows
He got down off his shelf
No time be wasting
Look round right now
He's a pocket

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.

“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.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
