You expect me to be young and dumb because of my appearance
I'm walking with the dead, and talking to the spirits
Open is a ear when a nigga broadcast
Hidden between the channels the remote pass
You don't have to ask, I understand you're scared
Sitting at the table you so eagerly prepared
Are you ready?
Here's the world in a nutshell
Evil is everywhere, everybody got a place in Hell
And Heaven's gates are tall and strong
And the Father is forgiving for however you wrong
If you think life is a game of chance
Be prepared to throw down when it's time to dance
If you're young enjoy it, cause your youth is gold
Never waste time, every single day you grow old
Written is a page in the Book for you
And hard times and bad luck to see what you would do.
(Chorus)
Now we look to the sky for the light and truth
I'll see you again in the morning
Now we look to the sky for the light and truth
I'll see you again in the morning.
You're a machine
That's not really what I mean, what I mean is if you're programmed tight ya might not malfunction
Taught to be militant, given education so never be an idiot
If ya never wanna be a nothing forever
Ya better stop all that talk and get your shit together
Ya gotta think
And take into consideration all the people, all the problems that they facing
You don't understand what your own life about, so how the fuck you supposed to help another mothafucka out?
Ya got bills piling up a mile high
Got a card in the mail says some family died
And now you're stressed
Pressure is a bitch, you can go on like a sucker or stay and be victorious
Written is a page in the Book for you
And hard times and bad luck to see what you would do.
(Chorus)
Now we look to the sky for the light and truth
I'll see you again in the morning
Now we look to the sky for the light and truth
I'll see you again in the morning.
Raging is a way to escape
But I remind you that when you come back it's still gonna be the same way
It's up to you
Now what you gonna do?
You can cry to the world and tell them you played the fool, but nobody cares
We all got problems of our own, man
And you're so crazy that's it's hard to hold it down, and some of us break and fall apart
And some of us just pause and we need to restart
Thinking
Process of a man to evolve and create and conquer what he can
Living in a world where the elevated live well
The population double daily in Hell
And having all that gotta weigh the soul
Gotta have a mothafucka wanna lose control
Written in the Book is a page for you
And hard times and bad luck to see what you would do.
(Chorus)
Now we look to the sky for the light and truth
I'll see you again in the morning
Now we look to the sky for the light and truth
I'll see you again in the morning

    i think this song is saying that he doesnt believe in fate he believes that wat u do has consequenes. like wat the french guy says on matrix reloaded "cause and effect". i all so think that it means like if yr really lazy and do nuttin all day u'll get no where in life and if u get in and work hard u mite actually hav a chance of gettin somewhere.

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”

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.

Punchline
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.
