I won't let them get the best of me. This is the path I've made for me. You were my shield from the enemy. Always right there by my side. You were there for me. You were everything. When I felt like nothing, you still believed in me... you were there for me. Forever in debt of gratitude. Unconditional love and support. You paved the way. You gave me strength. Forget the past. Look back at me and I'll be there. Through years of discipline to never settle for second best. The great provider... the years of sacrifice... you were there for me. I've got to find a way to thank my family for everything they've done for me, the sacrifice they made for me. You gave me strength. Without you my life would not be the same.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
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.

Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
