This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Lend me your ears, but turn away because it's hideous up here. Amber waves of grain have crumbled down and Church Street has been swept clear. A lonely train ride home, when all your friends have wings (your friends have wings).
Remember when the skies were for the birds before structures were even dreamed. When everything has gone wrong.
So what's your two cents? That's all it worth because you never had a clue. Regurgitating everything you heard in the post and the daily news.
A slave to your nine to five and your three piece suit and tie(your suit and tie). The irony of the American dream, indentured till you die.
When everything has gone wrong. Just know I meant every word.
You know I meant every word. And we dance, and we dance, and we dance through the streets and tenements and we snap-snap and clap our hands in remembrance.
Why me? "The seasons come and go. Look at the ash it falls like snow. We flew to fertilize the earth so a flower can grow." He said. But still the seasons come and go. Look at the leaves that turn to snow. We flew to fertilize the earth, cause from death come rebirth. So just live!
When everything has gone wrong. Just know I meant every word. You know I meant every word. Why me?

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.

Blue

“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.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
