In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Get me?
Got a lot to talk bout
Rasket, Godsgift
Oi, yo
What you do will come back to you
(What you do will come back to you)
What you do will come back to you
(What you do will come back to you)
What you do will come back to you
(What you do will come back)
Hold your mout' (hold your mout')
Rasket don't give a shit (I mean)
Ain't concerned, ain't worried, don't mind
But you should watch your lip (I mean)
If you keep chattin' in a hurry you'll find
The bottom of a 6 foot pit (I mean)
Don't care what creed, color or kind
Bullets'll make you sit (I mean)
Make you relax, lay-down, unwind
Rasket don't give a damn (I mean)
Ain't that bothered not much, don't care
Catch me if you can (I mean)
It's possible you will get hit with a chair
Talk like your the man (I mean)
If you want beef you'll get a fair share
Dizzee got a masterplan (I mean)
I'm a problem for Antony Blair
Rasket don't have a bar (I mean)
Don't have it from him, her or dem
I'll make a rudeboy say raw (I mean)
With or without the use of a skeng
Remove you from your car (I mean)
Got a temper, its big like ben
And I don't care who you are (I mean)
Move to your boys, I'll move to your men
Rasket don't waste time (I mean)
Don't hesitate, don't pet, don't ramp
.22, .38, .9 (I mean)
These digits'll leave you stiff like cramp
You want to test? that's fine (I mean)
You couldn't take Dizzee Rascal for a tramp
If you cross my line (I mean)
I'll leave you colourful, dazed and damp
I don't want beef today
It's not arms today
Let's keep it calm today
Let's be friends
I don't wanna write today
Lets not fight today
I feel alright today
Let's be friends
You've got a problem blood?
Let's solve it blood
Gats and bora's blood
Hold your mout'
You've got a problem blood?
Let's solve it blood
Gats and bora's blood
Hold your mout' (yo)
It don't make no sense to me
Why fella's don't wannaact sensibly
You better re-check your identity
You better re-check how you speak (uh)
You don't make no sense to me
If I switch I won't act sensibly
I'll make you care intensively
You'll be in a coma for a week
And I really can't come to grips
With how these fellas act just like chicks
But now I retaliate with clips
And now I retaliate with force
You should come to grips
With how you really should watch your lips
You better know we're some lunatics
And that we retaliate, of course
You don't want to feel the heat from my
I roll deep wit' my
I'm always on the street wit' my
I eat wit' my
I sleep wit' my
And I can put you 6 foot deep wit' my
Chat shit you get beat wit' my
Roll straight sound be the street wit' my
Try if I'm never on my feet wit' my
I'm only on my feet when I buss heat
And you just ran outta luck wit' my
Say your gonna get fucked up wit' my
Gunshots leave bodies bruk with my
And I can make the whole place duck wit' my
If you don't want to get stuck wit' my
Don't want to get out the truck wit' my
'Cause you'll get jacked and gun-butt wit' my
And I'll leave your whole jaw bruk wit' my
Got a lot to talk bout
Rasket, Godsgift
Oi, yo

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

Punchline

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.

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
