The drumbeats go like this
Yo, yo
Now once again, my friend it's the Reverend
The first platinum status rap president
And from the coast to California to the show the main,
Got an east coast sound and my beats go bang
My own black crown with my snickers got my name
And I'm back yo, with my collar and cape
Like a superhero armed with an old school tape
It's the Rev, yo, you gots to believe

There's a song for lovers you can hear all the time
But you're like no other to me
So I'm not gonna promise you a starry sky
You just need to believe
(Just need to believe)

I take time for my rhyme and I climb but don't reach
Hustling when we rustle and grime and rock beats
And this is it what Another hit for the streets
I got love for my people from queens to overseas
Step into the room and then 'boom' the horns scream
Rev's coming well and regal, I've got dreams
Just like Martin Luther the King I might teach
Rock a collar to the party after party going reach

There's a song for lovers you can hear all the time
(All the time)
But you're like no other to me
(Like no other, like no other)
So I'm not gonna promise you a starry sky
You just need to believe
(You just need to believe)

There's a song for lovers
But you're like no other
(Rev's coming well and regal, I've got dreams
(Step into the room and then boom the horns scream)
There's a song for lovers
But you're like no other to me
You just need to believe

(I'll be your friend)
If you say you love me
(I won't let you down)
If you say you really care
(Hold out your hands)
If you say you really want me
(I will be there)
I promise I'll be there, oh, oh

I promise
I promise
And then I promise
I'll be there

There's a song for lovers you can hear all the time
(All, yeah)
But you're like no other to me
(Like no other, like no other)
So I'm not gonna promise you a starry sky
(Nothing but a starry sky)
You just need to believe

There's a song for lovers you can hear all the time
But you're like no other to me
(Other to me)
(Like no other, like no other)
So I'm not gonna promise you a starry sky
You just need to believe
(Just need to believe)
(You just need to believe)

Faith is the substance of things hoped for
(You just need to believe)
The evidence of things not seen
(You just need to believe)
Your faith has made you whole
(Yeah)

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
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.

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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."

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
