"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.
Aight play that shit..
Stiletto pumps in the club
Stiletto pumps in the club, get crunk
(Princess)
Homegurl bow down when you see me because I'm comin up fresh
Ride wit' the realist ya feel me? So you should call me the best
I can look jazzy, act nasty wit' my stilleto hills on
But if a hoe say somethin, try me then her hair will get thrown
I'm turnin' heads left and right soon as he see one foot
Step out the car, strollin' through the club
Then I make my way right by the bar, yeah yo nigga eyein' me
I take 'em from ya so watch out, I'm lookin' jazzy actin' classy
But I got a sexy mouth, hair is done and nails are too
And I match from head to toe, then to top it off
I'm rockin' 6-inch black stilettos hoe
Different color everyday that's just to match the mood I'm in
Silver, red, grey, and black lookin' this good should be a sin
Stiletto pumps in the club
Whoeva thought that these girls will get crunk?(x2)
We rockin stilettos hoe(x8)
(Diamond)
Stilettos on my feet, I'm sexy wit' a mug
I'm buckin' on why'all hatas just to see if why'all crunk
We swangin' throwin' bows, 'cause' why'all boys thought we soft
I'm knockin' heads off, I'm the baddest of 'em all
Makin' niggaz fall, mane they fightin' and tusslin'
Club owner scared that the gurls might start bussin'
We crunk and we thuggin', we takin' it public
This is for the gurls in the trap steady hustlin'
Stiletto pumps in the club
Whoeva thought that these girls will get crunk?(x2)
We rockin stilettos hoe(x8)
(Diamond)
I know you want a second look, but pictures isn't necessary
Diamond be my name and by the looks gurl you ain't even ready
Wit' my dickies two piece and my hair cocked to the other side
Pink and white interior inside my drop top Chevy ride
Killin' all these hatas 'cause' they know I got stilettos on
Yo nigga tried to holla, but the pimpin' here is way too strong
I'm known for breakin' pockets, I can walk it like I talk it
Got some Prada in my closet, can't no hatin' heffa stop it
I'ma put this shit up on the map, 'cause' ATL is where I be
I got my gurl Aisha and the Princess on a shoppin' spree
I get 'em for they goodies, and get richer ain't no pitty
I'm the reason why they hurtin', I'm the baddest in the city
Yeah hoe..

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.

Head > Heels

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
