This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
The books that you gave me, they had no pages
No picture book stories to put inside my song
And the heroes you made me, they had no faces
No chisel jaw features to carve my own on
And there's a right road
And there's a wrong wrong road
So I dropped your book you held so high
For to question is believe
And I know you said you needed time
But I never thought you had
The balls to leave
And there's a right road
And there's a wrong wrong road
I see your card come tumble down
And I know your future now
I see your card come tumble down
I watch the wheel go spinning round
I see your card come tumble down
And I know your future now
I watch the wheel go spinning round
And I watch your future going down
And there's a right road
And there's a wrong wrong road
I was a featureless face till you came along
Now I'm carved by your diamond
Won by your song and I feel that it's right
But I know that it's wrong
And all the love and care and respect
I had for you is long gone
Right road wrong road
Wrong road
No picture book stories to put inside my song
And the heroes you made me, they had no faces
No chisel jaw features to carve my own on
And there's a right road
And there's a wrong wrong road
So I dropped your book you held so high
For to question is believe
And I know you said you needed time
But I never thought you had
The balls to leave
And there's a right road
And there's a wrong wrong road
I see your card come tumble down
And I know your future now
I see your card come tumble down
I watch the wheel go spinning round
I see your card come tumble down
And I know your future now
I watch the wheel go spinning round
And I watch your future going down
And there's a right road
And there's a wrong wrong road
I was a featureless face till you came along
Now I'm carved by your diamond
Won by your song and I feel that it's right
But I know that it's wrong
And all the love and care and respect
I had for you is long gone
Right road wrong road
Wrong road

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.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
This song is about being left with bad memories at the end of a relationship, described perfectly in the first couple of verses. There is plenty of religious imagery in the song too, plenty of faith questioning statements.
Put simply then, in life, in love and even in spirituality, every decision we make leads us down either a right road, or a wrong road. And it's not until we're at the end of the road that it becomes clear just which we were on.
