This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
You could be sad but never torn
You saw the light when it was on
You never turned or looked away
Your eyes were focused, mine were grey
Your sentences were concentrated
You made your points so understated
Where I would mumble, you would say
Your eyes were focused, mine were grey
I made up conversations with my symbolic language
Saying everybody wants to be like you
But I'd rather fall in love with you
You got the picture from the start
You saw right through me in the dark
You saw that I couldn't behave
With eyes so focused, yet so frail
I chose you from a million
You were the choice of billions
Wishing they would try to be like you
But I'd rather fall in love with you
Ba-ba-ba baa-ba...
You questioned men and called them whores
But you would never burn your bra
You held your head up in the rain
Your eyes were focused, mine were grey
You had relationships that worked
And yet experience with jerks
So well adjusted, but with charm
Your eyes were focused and yet calm
I'm fairly realistic
But my thought are out of lip-sync
When I say that I'm not one of those
Who pass you by and fall in love with you
Who pass you by and fall in love with you
Who pass you by and fall in love with you
I'll pass you by and fall in love with you
Ba-ba-ba baa-ba...

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.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
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.
It's basically summing up the feelings of admiration towards a person. This girl (I'm presuming he's singing about a girl since he mentions bras) seems perfect - 'So well adjusted but with charm' - and he marks himself as inferior to her 'Your eyes were focussed, mine were grey'. His feelings for her are higher than wanting to be like her, as he's developing strong feelings for her.
