This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
It would simply say everything,
If you would, take a pen and
Write my name on friend,
Who never cared to let me inâ?¦
Then take a fast ravine,
That for three years swimmin' straight up stream,
And the wind,
The wind will drag me down in the endâ?¦
You live inside my wall, and I,
I reach back and hit you harder than God fallsâ?¦
Christ amen, amen, amenâ?¦
You're such a line to break, but I'm,
I'm so scared to make a fucking mistake
In the endâ?¦
But I just want to be happy again,
Againâ?¦.
Until it all falls down,
And where does that leave me?
With things, things,
I've got so many things to sayâ?¦
And with a broken heart,
And a straight face,
I'm saying brotherâ?¦
Help meâ?¦
Brother would you help me?
It's just a natural phase that I,
I go through, and then it's taken away,
And then bam, bam I'm fixed,
I'm fixed, I'm fixed, I'm fixedâ?¦
But I'm in another place to be where I,
I can't sleep without the thought
Of me being so,
So damn sick,
But I'm sick, I'm sick, I'm sickâ?¦
So take this song, take this song awayâ?¦
Until it all falls down,
And where does that leave me?
With things, things,
I've got so many things to sayâ?¦
And with a broken heart, and a straight faceâ?¦
And he always said,
Reach for the girl, reach for the girl,
And hold her closeâ?¦
Believe you can shine when you're silver,
And I promise you gold,
I promise you goldâ?¦
And whenever you're dark inside,
Don't let goâ?¦
Remember there's rain,
And there's candy,
And Christmasy winter snow,
The snow, the snowâ?¦
And remember I love you the same,
And I'll strangle your painâ?¦
And he tells me to sing,
So I sing, and I sing for my brother,
Who keeps me sane,
And tells me everything will be,
Okayâ?¦
I'm never alone,
No I'm never alone,
I'm not alone,
Not aloneâ?¦
If you would, take a pen and
Write my name on friend,
Who never cared to let me inâ?¦
Then take a fast ravine,
That for three years swimmin' straight up stream,
And the wind,
The wind will drag me down in the endâ?¦
You live inside my wall, and I,
I reach back and hit you harder than God fallsâ?¦
Christ amen, amen, amenâ?¦
You're such a line to break, but I'm,
I'm so scared to make a fucking mistake

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.

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.
I think the first person who had commented on this is WAY off. This song is about a guy who simply cant get his life together. He has so many problems he has delt with and its hard for him to cope in this life. But one thing that has always been a constant in his life is his brother. His brother held him together when he just wanted to fall apart. He reminds him the good things on life "Remember there's rain and there's candy and Christmasy winter snow" That no matter how bad it gets that he will always have his brother right at his side and is willing to do anything to help. This song is just about a guy who has someone he can always count on no matter what.
