@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
You should have ran for days
You embrace you betray
I am sick to say
You're a sad cliché
But when you ran you tripped and fell
On a path that lead you straight to hell
This is my salt in your wounds
This is my "I told you so"
If you knew what I know
Would you move like you do?
With malicious discontent
You went about hell-bent to destroy
But did you have a reason why?
Here's to lowering caskets of old friends
Choice and consequence
We'll birth a new day with the death of an old and
Start over, start over
Here's to burying hatchets
In those who you'd never call your friends
We'll birth a new day with the death of an old day and
Start over! Start over!
Can you breathe in, reach and let it out
Thee evil inside that's eating you out tonight
With every venomous move I will suck you up and spit you
Get out of my life
Get out of my sight!
Here's to lowering caskets of old friends
Choice and consequence
We'll birth a new day with the death of an old and
Start over, start over
Here's to burying hatchets
In those who you'd never call your friends
We'll birth a new day with the death of an old day and
Start over! Start over!
You let yourself get carried away
Don't act like your ashamed
You let yourself get carried away
Bow your head now, accept the blame
You let yourself get carried away
Bury this with you, a waste
And now it's time to see
What you don't mean to me
Now it's time to see
What you don't mean to me
Now it's time to see
What you don't mean to me
Here's to lowering caskets of old friends
Choice and consequence
We'll birth a new day with the death of an old and
Start over, start over
Here's to burying hatchets
In those who you'd never call your friends
We'll birth a new day with the death of an old day and
You embrace you betray
I am sick to say
You're a sad cliché

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.
