I got on board of a Westbound 747
Didn't think before decided what to do
All of them talk about those TV breaks and the movies
They ain't true, Lord it sure ain't true

Seems it never rains in Southern California
Seems I've all been hurt that kind of tough before
It never rains in California
But girl don't be warn ya
It pours, man it pours

Out of work
I'm out of my head
Out of self respect
I'm out of bread
I'm on the love
Then I'm on the fade
I want to go home

It never rains in California
But girl don't be warn ya
It pours, man it pours

Well you tell the folks back home
I nearly made it
I had all thoughts
Didn't know which one to take

Please don't tell them how you found me
Oh don't tell how you found me
Gimme a break
Oh gimme a break

Seems it never rains in Southern California
Seems I've all been hurt that kind of tough before
It never rains in California
But girl don't be warn ya
It pours, man it pours

Seems it never rains in Southern California
Seems I've all been hurt that kind of tough before
It never rains in California
But girl don't be warn ya
It pours, man it pours

It pours, man it pours

I Can't Go To Sleep
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.

Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
