In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Oi
Haha, haha, aha, ha, aha, haha
Yea
Stupid
Fix up look sharp
Don't make me get the blitz out get dark (woo)
Hear the bang, see the spark
Duck down, lay down (just calm down) (woo)
Fix up look sharp
Don't make me get the blitz out get dark (woo)
Hear the bang, see the spark
Duck down, lay down (just calm down) (woo)
I got the big beat (aha ha ha)
I hear the sound (yeah)
I got the big beat, (Dizzee Rascal)
I get on down (rolling deep)
I've heard the gossip from the street to the slammer
They're trying to see if Dizzee stays true to his grammar
Being a celebrity don't mean shit to me
Fuck the glitz and glamor
Hit 'em with the Blitz and Hammer (woo)
Because they're talking 'bout rushing
Talk behind my back but to my face they say nothing
Stand up in the dance, keep a firm steady stance
Keep the beanies touching, keep the beanies hot flashing (woo)
Flushing MC's down the loo
If you don't believe me bring your posse, bring your crew
Feel free to hate 'cause I ain't tryna be your mate
Be serious, you wouldn't last an hour in my shoe (woo)
It's an Air Force One (woo)
Trainers by the truck load, trainers by the ton
Don't be dazed when I catch you by your J's
Chump, best to act like Forest Gump, best to run (woo)
Fix up look sharp
Don't make me get the blitz out get dark (woo)
Hear the bang, see the spark
Duck down, lay down (just calm down) (woo)
Fix up look sharp
Don't make me get the blitz out get dark (woo)
Hear the bang, see the spark
Duck down, lay down (just calm down) (woo)
I got the big beat
I hear the sound
I got the big beat (oi) (woo)
I get on down (sweet as a nut mate, sweet as a nut)
I stay sweet as a nut, sweet like Tropicana
When the hammer hits, your head splits like banana
You're not ready for this boy
You better send your best soldiers, this is Captain Roscoe (woo)
More destructive and troublesome than ever
I'll probably be doing this, probably forever
Fellas wanna stop me they'll probably come together
Its probable they'll stop me, probably never (woo)
Yo top boy, topman, or top a topper
Come to me with an attitude, come a cropper
I'm old school like Happy Shopper
I fight old school, bring your bat and your chopper (woo)
And a First Aid kit and some antiseptic, this could get hectic (woo)
I'm a Don accept it, you gotta bright future
Don't let my gun affect it
Fix up look sharp
Don't make me get the blitz out get dark (woo)
Hear the bang, see the spark
Duck down, lay down (just calm down) (woo)
Fix up look sharp
Don't make me get the blitz out get dark (woo)
Hear the bang, see the spark
Duck down, lay down (just calm down) (woo)
(Woo)
(Calm down)
Fix up

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
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.
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
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.
old skool! I don't like rap or hip-hop, but rap battling with my friends can get pretty fun, i usually come up on top, but that's prolly cause dizzee's one of my rapping influences (and so is hed pe)
