This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Ooh ooh-ooh
La la la la la la
Yeah-yeah
Ooh-ooh, yeah
I never knew such a day could come
And I never knew such a love could be inside of one
And I never knew what my life was for
But now that you're here, I know for sure (babe)
I never knew 'til I looked in your eyes (no, baby)
I wasn't incomplete 'til the day you walked into my life (mm, hm)
And I never knew that my heart could feel so precious and pure
One love so real
Can I just see you every morning (every morning, baby)
When I open my eyes
Can I just feel your heart beating beside me every night (and every day)
Can we just feel this way together 'til the end of all time (together, always)
(Can I just spend my life) Can I just spend my life with you? (With you)
Now baby, the days and the weeks and the years will roll by
But nothing will change the love inside of you and I
And baby, I'll never find any words that could explain
Just how much my heart, my life, my soul you've changed
Can you run to these open arms when no one else understands (when no one else understands)
Can we tell God and the whole world (can we tell God)
I'm your woman and you're my man? (That you're my man?)
Can you just feel how much I love you with one touch of my hand? (Ooh, babe)
Can I just spend my life with you? (Ooh)
No touch has ever felt so wonderful (you are incredible)
And no deeper love I've never known (I'll never let you go)
I swear this love is true (now and forever to you)
Only for you (to you, oh, oh)
Can I just see you every morning when I open my eyes? (My eyes)
Can I just feel your heart beating beside me (feel your heart beating next to every day and every night)
Every night
Can we just feel this way together
'Til the end of all time
Can I just spend my life with you? (And ooh, baby)
Can you run to these open arms
When no one else understands? (No one else understands)
Can we tell God and the whole world
You're my woman, and you're my man? (I'm your man)
Can't you just feel how much I love you (how much I love you)
With one touch of my hand
Can I just spend my life with you? (Spend my life, yes, I will)
Can I just spend my life with you?
(Forever here with you)
Can I just spend my life with you?
Can I just see you every morning when I open my eyes?
Ooh
La la la la la la

I wasn't incomplete 'til the day you walked into my life (mm, hm)
And I never knew that my heart could feel so precious and pure

When I open my eyes

Can we just feel this way together 'til the end of all time (together, always)

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.

No Surprises

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.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
this song is for someone who wants to be with the person they love for the rest of their life. its the perfect wedding song because it really talks about all the things a person experiences when they are married.
I would like to dedicate this to my girl, she is 100% the girl of my dreams, through all the pain, and suffering shes endured with me, and all the happiness, that we give to each other. I love you so much Jessica.
To me the meaning of this song is, about your life, with the one you love. It touches your heart and makes you remember all the times you've endured, and no matter what you will always know that, you will always be with that person, and the person is the person you love.
