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"
Smell like new money
C'mon
Shawn Jay's in the house tonight,
Shawn Jay's in the house tonight Fleetwood!
Chevy P's in the house tonight,
Chevy P's in the house tonight Dark Brooks!
The Field Mob's in the house tonight,
Field Mob's in the house tonight This the F.B.I.
We got another one, act your age not your shoe size baby,
Pinky ring, no wedding band!
[Chorus]
I'm not afraid to say I get around
Its just I'm much too young to settle down
I got places to go, and people to see, and things to do
I can't be tied down with you I'm sorry baby! (sorry baby)
She say that she love me, want me to be her husband
Wanna tie me down, tryna ?? and cuff me
But I can't let her, cause I got a jet to catch
But I told her id be back like ??
Wasn't too convincing, she scared to go with me
Say she be lonesome all alone 'cause she miss me
Cries when I'm leavin', whining and weeping,
But I gotta go before my flight leaves me (leaves me)
Now I could pass you like Grey Poupon
Or you could wait on me shawty I won't take too long
Give a nigga some space, or baby move on
Cause like a Chinese name I'm too young (ha ha)
[Chorus]
Now soon as they see the Field Mob ??, chicks be tryna hizzang,
I ain't Keith Murray but she so star struck,
(Pretty Eddie) fix your ego
Spit on a bitch down sit on my dick
If a face ?? complain I stay gone
Every message sound sad like a ?? song
The wood good like the Bentley interior
Get your man he a couple inches inferior
She dick-??, violent too
Talk shit I let you go like a silent poo
Smelling me good, tryna have some f-you-n
If you ain't bout that F you then! (move on!)
I'm too young for relationships,
So many parties, so many chicks, I don't mean to be a playa, but I gotta do my thaaang
[Chorus]

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
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.

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.

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.
