Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

It's Da Boss
It gets no better than this
Maybach Music!
Swimmin' in women, champagne sippin',
Gold Emblem with 2 M's in it, this living is so magnificent, stop dreaming it,
I'm living it
(Oh I), I can show you, (Oh I) show you better that I can tell you, (Oh I) I can show you,
(Oh I), (Oh I)
I'm tha magnificient with tha sensational style,
far from bein' shallow cause she caught me wit a smile,
try to figure out my style,
baby that will take a minute but if all we got is time,
you can't be actin' timid, so we back to playin tennis,
we been goin' back and forth,
she the one that I adore, so I tried it in aurar,
conscience intervened concentrating on my cream, I'm tha king,
make a move, pawns all tha way to queens,
I'm a don, I'm a boss, I'm a profit, I'm a g,
I'm a CEO which means that I profit off of me (Yea!).
All white T's still rockin' my Nike Airs, fresh outta flight school,
cause I'm fly right? (Yea!)
Ain't nothin free, I'm chargin'to breathe air, if it's not a Maybach,
really who da hell cares?
My money long, my nigga my money strong,
if you ain't gettin' money dat mean you done somethin' wrong (Boss!)
Swimmin' in women, champagne sippin',
Gold Emblem with 2 M's in it, this living is so magnificent, stop dreaming it,
I'm living it
(Oh I), I can show you, (Oh I) show you better that I can tell you, (Oh I) I can show you,
(Oh I), (Oh I)
I'm tha magnificient with tha sensational style,
down to all of my automobiles wit no miles, yellow corvettes,
black rally stripes, and I never phone ahead,
all she do is hear the pipes, project bitches, upscale kittens,
fuck her for a minute then now we countin' digits,
Maybach money so I always had a vision,
I would always tell ma niggas but... ain't nobody listened.
Words work magic, haters wreak havoc,
there ain't nothin'on my back but the delicates of fabrics.
I made a transition from the thieves,
to the biggest executive Def Jam's ever seen.
Only yours dream, Sean John suit and a S. Dot ring,
Sean Don for my crew, bad hoes in pursuit,
Masspike on a two, Gunplay he a glue goon wit a attitude (Holla!)
Swimmin' in women, champagne sippin',
Gold Emblem with 2 M's in it, this living is so magnificent, stop dreaming it,
I'm living it
(Oh I), I can show you, (Oh I) show you better that I can tell you, (Oh I) I can show you,
(Oh I), (Oh I)
I'm tha magnificient with tha sensational style, when I decorate a home,
marble flooring like Da Nile,
nigga you a clown, here's the number you should dial,
ye start wit 305 but we end at 4 pounds.
Stop at ... old pound, for life is a ??, all them Carol City killers,
feel liking you broke down,
money is a must tommy guns on a bus, Allan Zamren on the case,
so you know what you can suck,
wear red all the time but really I'm colour blind,
wanna catch my attention nigga, throw up a dollar sign.
One time for tha Crips, young g's buyin cribs and I smoke wit Vice Lords
when I visit Mississip.
The game never change, money still a focal,
but its time to rape tha game like Puffy did Total,
like Rev Run in the tub still smokin', in memory of Shakir,
Boss gotta shout Oakland!
Swimmin' in women, champagne sippin',
Gold Emblem with 2 M's in it, this living is so magnificent, stop dreaming it,
I'm living it
(Oh I), I can show you, (Oh I) show you better that I can tell you, (Oh I) I can show you,

No Surprises
Radiohead
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
