This is hope
This is faith
This is my life

It's no miracle that I'm still standing
This is my soul, my heart until I die
Cause someone's got to try
Yeah the reasons
That I'm still breathing
Are in these lullabies
Tonight!

I've been counted out
I've ran for cover
And one too many times
I should have died
It's not about redemption
It's pure salvation
Written out in every single line

It's no miracle that I'm still standing
This is my soul, my heart until I die
Cause someone's got to try
Yeah the reasons
That I'm still breathing
Are in these lullabies
In this fight
We live or dream it
So I'm still screaming
Out these lullabies
Tonight!

This is everything I've known
Set to rhymes and passing tones
Yeah I'm still standing
Here right now
Through the tragic to the bone
Take it all I've been disowned
But I'm still standing
Yeah I'm still standing

Cause someone's got to try
Yeah the reasons
That I'm breathing
Are in these lullabies
In this fight
We live or dream it
So I'm still screaming
Out these lullabies
Tonight!

(This is everything I've known)
Yeah the reasons
(Set to rhymes and passing tones)
Yeah I'm still breathing
(Yeah I'm still standing)
Are in these lullabies

(Through the tragic to the bone)
We live or dream it
(Take it all I've been disowned)
So I'm still screaming
(But I'm still standing)
Out these lullabies
Tonight!

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
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.

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.

Plastic Bag
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.
