@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
It's been a while but your smile
Always brightens up my day
I guess you know because it shows
You can see it on my face
Feels like you put a spell on me
Feels like you captured me
And baby, this is how I feel
Don't need the sun to shine to make me smile
Don't care if it's dark outside 'cause I've got you
And though the rain may fall, no, I won't care at all
'Cause baby, I know that I got you
Every day there's a change
You bring out the best in me
My inner soul is what you know
That is how you speak to me
You seem to understand
You know just who I am
And baby, this is how I feel
Don't need the sun to shine to make me smile
Don't care if it's dark outside 'cause I've got you
And though the rain may fall, no, I won't care at all
'Cause baby, I know that I got you
Don't need a rocket-man to help me touch the sky
I don't need to fly a plane to get this high
Don't need to hitch a ride when I could run a million miles
Yes, I would, just to see you smile
Don't need the sun to shine to make me smile
Don't care if it's dark outside 'cause I've got you
And though the rain may fall, no, I won't care at all
Baby, I know that I got, I got you, I got you
Don't need the sun to shine to make me smile
Don't care if it's dark outside 'cause I've got you
And though the rain may fall, no, I won't care at all
'Cause baby, I know that I got you
I got you, baby, and it feels right
You got me feeling so good and so bright
Feel I can touch the sky
Always brightens up my day
I guess you know because it shows
You can see it on my face
Feels like you put a spell on me
Feels like you captured me
And baby, this is how I feel
Don't need the sun to shine to make me smile
Don't care if it's dark outside 'cause I've got you
And though the rain may fall, no, I won't care at all
'Cause baby, I know that I got you
Every day there's a change
You bring out the best in me
My inner soul is what you know
That is how you speak to me
You seem to understand
You know just who I am
And baby, this is how I feel
Don't need the sun to shine to make me smile
Don't care if it's dark outside 'cause I've got you
And though the rain may fall, no, I won't care at all
'Cause baby, I know that I got you
Don't need a rocket-man to help me touch the sky
I don't need to fly a plane to get this high
Don't need to hitch a ride when I could run a million miles
Yes, I would, just to see you smile
Don't need the sun to shine to make me smile
Don't care if it's dark outside 'cause I've got you
And though the rain may fall, no, I won't care at all
Baby, I know that I got, I got you, I got you
Don't need the sun to shine to make me smile
Don't care if it's dark outside 'cause I've got you
And though the rain may fall, no, I won't care at all
'Cause baby, I know that I got you
I got you, baby, and it feels right
You got me feeling so good and so bright
Feel I can touch the sky

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.
