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.
All eyes are on you kid! You're the new sensation. It's a tough job keeping the stones situated, you have to annunciate it like a protest against the wind.
Speak strong with your feet deep in the mud or your words will blow away like dandelions in the wind. Separating you from your life, taking you from everything you know and the ones you thought you knew.
Fall a thousand times and get back up, your words are underlined in red so from the highest point in your chest push away from the edge, you've got this one under your belt. Push away from the end.
Tell them all you're a star and you can ride in the back of the car and get lost in the distance.
She's not going anywhere planted like a rose in thorns in the glare here's your shot to let her know its over. The only roads she'll ever see, she'll see alone.
Get back up and show them your teeth
When the lights on the stage begin to dim, bow out bow down. And if the airwaves make one sound shut them down shut them out.
Speak strong with your feet deep in the mud or your words will blow away like dandelions in the wind. Separating you from your life, taking you from everything you know and the ones you thought you knew.
Fall a thousand times and get back up, your words are underlined in red so from the highest point in your chest push away from the edge, you've got this one under your belt. Push away from the end.
Tell them all you're a star and you can ride in the back of the car and get lost in the distance.
She's not going anywhere planted like a rose in thorns in the glare here's your shot to let her know its over. The only roads she'll ever see, she'll see alone.
Get back up and show them your teeth
When the lights on the stage begin to dim, bow out bow down. And if the airwaves make one sound shut them down shut them out.

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.
Magical
Ed Sheeran

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Page
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
I believe This song speaks about a person finding out that the one they loved is cheating on them with many people. I mean, the first few sentences clearly states that its the obvious.
SICK BAND. they sound amazing together. and the bits of screams are freakin intense, they use them extremely well.
this song sounds to me like its about a guy who somehow gets in the spotlight, sounds like he has something to do with speaking or maybe singing(!possibly himself?!) He is warned that even if he falls a thousand times, to get back up and stand strong, because otherwise they will blow him away. It seems like maybe the media is watching his every move(your words are underlined in red) (Tell them all you're a star and you can ride in the back of the car and get lost in the distance) he is getting into all the "hot" parties, because he is recognized.
Now here's where it seems to take a turn: "She's not going anywhere planted like a rose in thorns in the glare here's your shot to let her know its over. The only roads she'll ever see, she'll see alone." Im thinking either he is talking about dumping a girl he's already with, because somebody is telling him that she isn't going anywhere and will only drag him down; or he has just picked up some chick for a one nighter, and is just letting her know that its not going anywhere and he isn't planning to be with her. It seems like this is the point where stardom gets to his head.
"When the lights on the stage begin to dim, bow out bow down. And if the airwaves make one sound shut them down shut them out." It seems like he is about to play a show, and he is being told (now im thinking by a manager or something) to ignore the critics and people saying that he has sold out or whatever and to just play.
It seems like in all this song is just talking about the negative effects of fame on the people. Brilliant song.
