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.
Leave it up to me to mix business with pleasure
But were not getting any younger
And it leads me to wonder shouldnt I be getting
Something out of this
Something I should have missed when Im without her.
What the hell are you waiting for?
Its all for you or its all for nothing
All for hoping that youd give it a chance, give it a chance, give me.
What the hell am I waiting for?
To be out of time or be out of context
Pleasantly complex
And were giving up on getting guilt out of our way.
Theres something in the air tonight
And I cant quite put my finger on it
But I tell you that shes got it
And it works for me
And im falling for
Shes another break in the bend
I could be nothing more than a trend
Im wandering off
Im wondering if shes got it out for another one
Shes got it out for another one better than me.
An eye for an I am ready to give it up give him up and on and on
And im floored to see that you are standing here
Like everything was oh so clear and bright you dont think about it
Why do you kick me when im down
Im running out of things to say
Things dont come as easy, and things dont come as easy as you do
And im running out of things to say.
RISE OR DIE TRYING!
But were not getting any younger
And it leads me to wonder shouldnt I be getting
Something out of this
Something I should have missed when Im without her.
What the hell are you waiting for?
Its all for you or its all for nothing
All for hoping that youd give it a chance, give it a chance, give me.
What the hell am I waiting for?
To be out of time or be out of context
Pleasantly complex
And were giving up on getting guilt out of our way.
Theres something in the air tonight
And I cant quite put my finger on it
But I tell you that shes got it
And it works for me
And im falling for
Shes another break in the bend
I could be nothing more than a trend
Im wandering off
Im wondering if shes got it out for another one
Shes got it out for another one better than me.
An eye for an I am ready to give it up give him up and on and on
And im floored to see that you are standing here
Like everything was oh so clear and bright you dont think about it
Why do you kick me when im down
Im running out of things to say
Things dont come as easy, and things dont come as easy as you do
And im running out of things to say.
RISE OR DIE TRYING!

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.

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.
this song is one of the greatest songs ever. its probably about a date and making a move on your girl or whatnot. i heard about these guys when i saw the blink 182 tribute album. they played "dumpweed"
i know these guys fucking amazing my fav band next to saves the day amazing live neat guys and my fav song,,., i know for a fact this song is about starting a relationship with a girl you like. this completly reminds me of the night i asked a girl i loved elaina
I just have no idea whatsoever where the title came from.
I mean, I usually don't with FYS, but this one just seems particularly random because it seems like it could be a title for a song - but it doesn't match the lyrics at all.
I think this song is about meeting a girl and liking her, but feeling as though she may be leading you on, and that she secretly has other guys who are better than you round her little finger too, leaving you to be just another trend in a long line of guys she has on the go.
exactly what i think
