This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Committed, committed
I need to be committed
I need to be locked away
I need a straighter jacket on my crooked frame
I need to be admitted today
Excited, excited
I need to get excited
And reconnect with nature, babe
I need to focus on the sunshine, focus on my goal
Truth in every grain of sand
I put my back into, put my back into my work
I will receive what I, will see what I deserve
Listen
You have to be patient
This new administration is doing the very best it can
But there's armies in the banks who tried out all the skanks
Attorneys for the Ku Klux Klan
For god and for country, for Michael Jackson's monkey
Just take another on the chin
I was a singer in a band, yeah, had sex in my van
And filling it with Mexicans
Who put their back into, put their back into their work
They will receive all they, they will receive all they deserve
It's a beautiful life
We lay sleeping
With my beautiful wife and me
We'll hold each other closer till the end of days
I made my decision
I will go back to prison
I will survive the end of my bed
The writing is in the hall, the markings on the wall
That say "dead man walking"
I put my back into, put my back into my work
I will receive what I, will receive what I deserve
Make the commitment
I need to be committed
I need to be locked away
I need a straighter jacket on my crooked frame
I need to be admitted today
Excited, excited
I need to get excited
And reconnect with nature, babe
I need to focus on the sunshine, focus on my goal
Truth in every grain of sand
I put my back into, put my back into my work
I will receive what I, will see what I deserve

@[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.

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.

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
I think this is a song about working hard (obviously) in a relationship, doing the best you can to move forward despite your faults, and accepting responsibility for your mistakes. It's also related to America as a whole- we have a lot of problems and we have to work to overcome them. It seems like a couple of songs on this album have the same dual meaning- Big Wave has the same ties between personal life, and the state of the nation.
