Ever wonder how one days so blessed and the next is cursed
Cause what you do in a day effects the whole universe
It�s mysterious but here it is energy swells
From lands full of sand to the liberty bell
From advanced organisms to single cells
From those living in heaven to those dwelling in hell
Yesterday talking bout something don�t prevail
The power of 24 hours can change and compel
Mr. closely, we still just strangers still
One day a child�s born with its brains of bill
One first at a time, I live mine through music
One day a teacher but always a student

Don�t wanna be free baby, ill make it one day
Don�t wanna be free baby, ill make it one day

Some days go quicker than Amtrak
Momentum got me thinking so stand back
He stands back to his benzyl baby
Never let a stiff religion make me crazy
It aint worth it (no)
Picture it to make it perfect
It can build to protect measurements like my verses
Has me verses the world and all its curses
Has me working the evil I�m not a servant
I�m murdered by the fact I�m on my own track
Phone back �cause I�m busy it can really get worn down
Despite my family in group I�m out the loop
But we superior and ready to count as loop

Don�t wanna be free baby, ill make it one day
Don�t wanna be free baby, ill make it one day
Don�t wanna be free baby, ill make it one day
Don�t wanna be free baby, that�s all I got to say

One love, one sun
Wanna know where your time is going when you�re under a gun
I got one fight, one breath
I think ill breath a little deeper until I got outta left
I run away from death every time that I speak
I gotta keep my breathing in tune to when I�m a leave
I think its seasoning to the reasoning to when I have a beautiful talk
I am the rotten a and confiding in your dreaming
You see you�ll never be yourself in this
Don�t forget all if that and get selfish
I�m a gift from the sky in the FBI
I ain�t nothing anything until the day I die

One day I�ll want that you�ll have some trouble with
In one day cause the next day I�ll want to double it
Then triple it, I�m sitting here tripping wake
Keeping this ridiculous vigorous akon jay
I want to take away but I don�t want to be forgotten
So I�m plotting a scheme of screaming demons
Going through my mind in nightmares and day dreaming
That�s a close comparison I was drunk during most of the moments of trash
And at least I can�t remember all the shit that I was passing
Swing swings, extreme highs and lows
One day we�ll see that we�ve got miles to go

Don�t wanna be free baby, ill make it one day
Don�t wanna be free baby, ill make it one day
Don�t wanna be free baby, ill make it one day
Don�t wanna be free baby, that�s all I got to say

I�ll make it one day, catch my on the runway,
Saturday Sunday, find me in the sunrays
That�s all I got to say, Sometimes its funnay
That I can feel this way, I�ll make it one day ooo

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
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.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
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.

Amazing
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.
