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'll take one, 'cause I needed to feel it so much
I had an emotional crutch, but
I'm feeling bored so ill take some more
'Cause nothing is happening
And once you told me that you loved me so much
I foolishly began to trust, but
Now I'm ignored and I'm taking more, till
Something is happening.
I'll take one 'cause I needed to feel it so much
I needed that thing we call fun, but
Now I'm ignored and ill take some more, till
something is happening
Cause once I thought you were right here with me, so
Maybe I'll take two or three
Until I believe what I have seen is really happening.
Morpheus! how could you leave me when I had need of your love?
Stop holding back!
Give me one reason to think you're decent
When I am Alone
Don't you ever try to bring me back With this one I needed to feel you so much, I Wantingly longed for your touch, but
Now I'm ignored and I'm feeling bored
'till something is happening.
Because once I thought you were right here with me so
Maybe I should take two or three
Until I believe what I have seen is really happening
With this one I needed to feel you so much
I needed that thing we call fun, but
Now I'm ignored and I'm feeling bored till something is happening.
And once I thought you were right here with me, so
Maybe I'll take two or three
Until I believed that what I have seen is really happening.
No no more
God Morpheus why did you leave me when I had need of your love
No holding back now! Give me the real thing!
I've got a reason
When I am alone
Don't you ever try to take me back.
I had an emotional crutch, but
I'm feeling bored so ill take some more
'Cause nothing is happening
And once you told me that you loved me so much
I foolishly began to trust, but
Now I'm ignored and I'm taking more, till
Something is happening.
I'll take one 'cause I needed to feel it so much
I needed that thing we call fun, but
Now I'm ignored and ill take some more, till
something is happening
Cause once I thought you were right here with me, so
Maybe I'll take two or three
Until I believe what I have seen is really happening.
Morpheus! how could you leave me when I had need of your love?
Stop holding back!
Give me one reason to think you're decent
When I am Alone
Don't you ever try to bring me back With this one I needed to feel you so much, I Wantingly longed for your touch, but
Now I'm ignored and I'm feeling bored
'till something is happening.
Because once I thought you were right here with me so
Maybe I should take two or three
Until I believe what I have seen is really happening
With this one I needed to feel you so much
I needed that thing we call fun, but
Now I'm ignored and I'm feeling bored till something is happening.
And once I thought you were right here with me, so
Maybe I'll take two or three
Until I believed that what I have seen is really happening.
No no more
God Morpheus why did you leave me when I had need of your love
No holding back now! Give me the real thing!
I've got a reason
When I am alone
Don't you ever try to take me back.

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 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.
