Look, baby, I know times are hard right now
You know and it be easy for us to give up on each other
But I want you to know

I ain't going nowhere
I ain't going nowhere
I ain't going nowhere
I just gotta say

I promised to be with you
Till the end of time when I said the lines
I'd take you for my wife, oh yeah

You know we just can't throw it all away
'Cause the sun will shine after a rainy day
I need you in my life that's why I'm sayin'

I ain't going nowhere
You can wreck a car
I ain't going nowhere
You can lose your job
I ain't going nowhere
You can burn the house down
Stay out all night on the town

I ain't going nowhere
I want to have some change
I ain't going nowhere
I like it just how we did
I ain't going nowhere
You can spend up all my things
Hang out all night with your friends, yeah, yeah

See we turned this house into a lovin' home
But now the things are rough
You wanna get goin'
We've gotta keep this together, oh yeah

'Cause I was made for you
And you complete me
And don't nobody else
Even deserve the love that I give oh, to you, baby
Nobody but you

I ain't going nowhere
You can wreck the car
I ain't going nowhere
You can lose your job
I ain't going nowhere
You can burn the house down
Stay out all night on this town

I ain't going nowhere
I want to have some change
I ain't going nowhere
I like it just how we did
I ain't going nowhere
You can spend up all my things
Hang out all night with your friends

Baby, you ain't got to worry about me
I told you when I'm out here hustling
I'm trying big time to get this money
I'm just trying to make life better for us you know
I love you, girl, believe it, I ain't going nowhere

Don't you know that I love you
And I will never do anything to hurt you, my baby
Please don't go
We've got a good thing going on, yeah yeah yeah

Stand by your side through thick and thin
And I will never go away, 'cause I love you, baby

I ain't going nowhere
You can wreck the car
I ain't going nowhere
You can lose your job
I ain't going nowhere
You can burn the house down
Stay out all night on the town

I ain't going nowhere
I want to have some change
I ain't going nowhere
I like it just how we did
I ain't going nowhere
You can spend up all my things
Hang out all night with your friends

I ain't going nowhere
'Cause you're my baby
My wife, my life

Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Mountain Song
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."

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
