@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
Friends, tell me I am crazy
That I'm wasting time with you
You'll never be mine
Just be good to me
Ha, Just be good to green
All I need is a woman to be good to me
I'm an easy man, I'm easily pleased
An you provide me with everything that I need
Look you know I make ends I grind
So hold onto yours we're spending mine
Though you try I never let you buy
But If I was broke would you still be spending time?
Yes
An I believe you would
Don't think P's to fucked to treat you good
I walk street with you, talk deep with you
Even slip an spend all week with you
Then I'm off, you wish I'd put an end to the torment
Stop, but one thing it's not ever is boring
What would you rather me be like?
I ain't ever gonna change are you ever gonna realize?
Always talk about
Look, people are always gonna talk babes,
Reputation
I ain't even gonna lie
Shit, but it ain't like you don't know what mine is
I don't care what you do to them
Nah
Just be good to me
I'll try, an try, an try
Look babes, you know who I am
But as crooked as I am
I'll be as good as I can
I try an try though its evident my
Angel face is disguise for the devil inside
You're good to me, I ain't good to girls, me?
I'm a bad boy something every good girl needs, hehe
Honesty could avoid all your tantrums
But I'm a naughty boy and I always have been
What
An that ain't changing any time soon
I can't have you with me whenever I move
Whatever I do, I come back to you,
See the good attracts me and the crook attracts you
Whatever
What
We've all got our ways
Remember us talking?
Of course it was game
But it's all gone an changed
Now she's got me cutting of links like I'm trying to shorten my chain
Always talk about
Look, people are always gonna talk babes,
Reputation
I ain't even gonna lie
Shit, but it ain't like you don't know what mine is
I don't care what you do to them
Nah
Just be good to me
I'll try, an try, an try
Friends are always telling me
You're a user
Not me not ever,
Ain't no other man gonna treat you better
I don't care what you do to them
Nah
Just be good to me
I'll try, and try, and try
I'll be good to you
You'll be good to me
We can be together be together
I'll be good to you
You'll be good to me
We can be together be together
Just be good to me
Why you always listening to them?
Why you always gotta listen to your friends?

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.

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.
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.
