Standing by the bedroom door
Leaning on the wall
Watching how you brush your hair, like a waterfall

Dusty galaxies
Dance around the sun

Nothing moves pretty good
Holding everything
I wonder what would happen if we pulled the string

So you be you and I'll be me
Just don't hide a thing and we'll be fine
Even if it's all wrong, it's all right
And don't remember what you're supposed to do
You be you and in unforgiving light
Even if it's all wrong, it's alright

Drawing circles in the dirt
And throwing pennies in
Thinking works a lot like that
You lose more than you win

No matter how you twist it up
It comes undone
Leave a well enough alone
And we'll all have fun

So you be you and I'll be me
Just don't hide a thing and we'll be fine
Even if it's all wrong, it's all right
And don't remember what you're supposed to do
You be you and in unforgiving light
Even if it's all wrong, it's alright

A rainbow ain't a crayon box
The sun it don't know it's hot
We don't know how nothing works
Like it or not

So you be you and I'll be me
Just don't hide a thing and we'll be fine
Even if it's all wrong, it's all right
And don't remember what you're supposed to do
You be you and in unforgiving light
Even if it's all wrong, it's alright

So you be you and I'll be me
Just don't hide a thing and we'll be fine
Even if it's all wrong, it's all right
And don't remember what you're supposed to do
You be you and in unforgiving light
Even if it's all wrong, it's alright
You be you

So you be you and I'll be me (and I'll be me)
Just don't hide a thing (just don't hide a thing)
Even if it's all wrong, it's all right (it's all right)
And don't remember (don't remember) what you're supposed to do
You be you (it's alright) and in unforgiving light
Even if it's all wrong, it's alright

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
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.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
