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.
Day one the lights fade, the music is full of bass,
She's all up in my face, I can't believe she's so close,
Feeling her grind made me lose my mind,
I'm just plain old take home material, take home material.
I keep my fingers crossed,
Hoping to find a way to show you what I'm made of,
Throw all our worries to the wind.
(I backtracked, stabbed at you,)
(Followed the tracks to a cabin filled with wooden spoons.)
(Then a shred of lead ripped my hoodie in two,)
(There's no telling what my evil twin brother wouldn't do.)
I wake up drenched in sweat
Wondering who I'm lying with,
What a joke there's nothing left to explore.
Find myself at the end of a bottle,
Laying in your bed hoping to find out where I'm at
(The weight can make you trip, but you won't fall down.)
It's gone away my song so long.
(Accept fresh, fresh can of broccoli,)
(I can't hear when you are knocking.)
(Unless fresh, fresh can of broc')
(I'll be leaning towards a centimeter short of much.)
As the sun goes down baby I'm in town
Hopin to find someone to take it all,
I know I'm right when I say go away
You get around, oh. you get around, oh.
You get around, oh, you're busy fucking everyone,
you're busy fucking everyone, Oh you're busy fucking everyone.
Find myself at the end of a bottle,
Laying in your bed hoping to find out where I'm at
(The weight can make you trip, but you won't fall down.)
It's gone away my song so long
Feeling my heart race
Drenched in sweat.
As I wonder
I'm not scared, not prepared
Lay down flat on your back
Open up girl let's play attack,
Lets waste our time.
(Back on top, but my blocks mowed down)
(Man I'm fit)
(Yeah my stomachs never touched the ground)
(But I'm courteous)
(Still keep it real with my nerdyness)
(14th's my birthday)
(Her's is on the 30th)
(If you were dead I bet this shit would bloom)
(Get a standing ovation from an empty room)
(Fuck your ass)
(I don't want your cereal)
(You can get your wig split back)
(I'll be the same ol' G.)

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
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.

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.
I wish everyone would shut the fuck up about the lyrics and discuss the meaning. Jonny Craig sings unclear lyrics on purpose, so every listener has their own interpretation on his words, Mess' words and the band.
YOU didn't even discuss the song's meaning. LOL. I'll take a stab at it, but it's wrong. It's about a guy who sleeps around w/o committment. You're on your own after that 'cause I suck at deciphering lyrics:)
