@[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.
If you could roll the window down, I'm feeling crowded, and getting real nauseous.
If you could let the forcefield down...I swear I'm trying to make conversation.
If I could let my hair grow out, then I could prove that I'm not so impulsive.
If I could let my feelings out, then I could show you that I have been thinking that we'd have gotten farther if we never even started at all.
I'll meet you for coffee, let's say four.
That way it's crowded and less complicated.
Let's try and get this over now.
I've set the setting of great mass destruction.
If we're trying, we can strum things down.
I just don't think I have got this left in me.
If I try and tell you in words now how much I need you and know I'll sorry.
'Cause we'd have gotten farther if we never even started at all.
[If you could roll that window down....
If you could roll that window down....]
'Cause we'd have gotten farther if we never even started at all.
'Cause we'd have gotten farther if we never even started at all.
'Cause we'd have gotten farther if we never even started.

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.
