Keep it going now, keep it going now
Keep it going now, keep it going now
Keep it going now, don't ever slow it down
We gonna hold it down anytime we throw it down.

I'll take ya back like Galaga and Atari
I was falling into junk like Pitfall Harry
My Life was game over thats when Christ saved me
so now its bonus round ever since then he changed me
it was scary how my life was run over like frogger
i was down to one life and didn't have another
but now i'm super like the mario brothers
pulling stunts off like tony hawk pro skater
so here's the story ain't legend of Zelda
its about Christ who was the space invader
hit sin like arruken from street fighter
came from heaven now just to die for ya fella
that's why he paid the price for ya sins
on top of that he just wants to run ya life like the sims
so this right here is my advice for ya friends
just stop and think about ya life when it ends

Keep it going now, keep it going now
Keep it going now, keep it going now
Keep it going now, don't ever slow it down
We gonna hold it down anytime we throw it down.

no doubt see i was just down for the count
knocked down and beat up like mike tyson's punch out
i flipped it up and went a whole different route
and now i lift it up cuz its what i'm all about
then i throw it out like super tecmo bowl
so every word out of my mouth would just touch a soul
even to the ones that bust guns like halo
or to those thugs on the run like grand theft auto
i just gotta let them know
just living life fast like grand turismo
may get ya rich just with a whole lotta dough
but in the end bro you just left out in the cold so
to the ones on the run like pac man
we came to slam it down like NBA jam
and leave the spot blown up like missle command
cuz thats how we do when the mics in the hand

Keep it going now, keep it going now
Keep it going now, keep it going now
Keep it going now, don't ever slow it down
We gonna hold it down anytime we throw it down.

so how i lay it just down for my people
underground like did dug old scholl like coleco
thats the sound that i bump just to reach y'all
sin got a clutch on us the resident evil
i gotta teach y'all what he did on the cross
three days later go raid the tomb like lara croft
but all you gonna find is that my Lord is gone
took the sin of mine took death and just shook it off
i'm going off i can't helpbut start braggin
it just so happens he runs the game like john madden
they cut him up first like ninja gaiden
and beat him down worse than double dragon
if you saw the passion then you know what happened
he took a bashing just to take on man's sin
thats me and you and even Charles Manson
so party people remember that when ya dancin'

Keep it going now, keep it going now
Keep it going now, keep it going now
Keep it going now, don't ever slow it down
We gonna hold it down anytime we throw it down.

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.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
