This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
In the midst of negativity, a positive site can be blurred
And the visions that we thought were good, seems to let evil occur
While still possessing our human form
We live life searching for greatness since the day we was born
And as we bow our heads at night rich wealthy or poor with dislikes
We pray, asking for forgiveness for our sinful ways
With mind, body, spirit and faith
We pray
Amen
Yeah (amen) you like that right? (Amen)
I wrote it myself by the way (amen)
Yo Young, Jeezy (amen)
Jizzle, Snowman (amen)
We gotta give the streets what they want man (amen)
Fuck the god damn sheet man (amen)
You gotta get it in bruh
Let's get it (amen)
You like that don't you?
I wrote it myself by the way
And I don't mean to be selfish
But I picture myself gettin' paid
And you might catch pneumonia
'Cause I'm colder than an elf on a sleigh
Uh, me and Pusha back on it
Now everybody help us pray
Lord forgive my sins and all my friends
Dollars make sense, I'm tryna get paid
Tryna get saved (too late)
Time to get paid
Got a gun and a stocking mask
Niggas thought I was tryna get waves
I'mma let y'all niggas pray for it
My young niggas knocking off a K for it
Sold my soul on the back end
Only fucking way I'ma pay for it
Front that shit you put a flame on
My niggas locked in a cage for
They keep telling me to go hard
Number one spot you was made for
Yeah, I made more
Front of the grill, got a racehorse
California Crayola red
Glow In The Dark like a 'Ye tour
Fuck niggas steppin' in my lane for
Not knowing that it's a land mine
Soon as a nigga feel a cool breeze
Throw the top up like a gang sign
Red or blue, crip or blood
Solitaires, diamond studs
Like chandeliers I'ma flood
Black Jesus piece like it's dipped in mud
Fashion God's, notice mine
Roller ball spikes I'm Pokemon
Paris shit, Louboutin
Under bright lights where do you belong?
Please Lord, yeah, it's gettin realer everyday
Niggas killin' niggas, starving 'cause they can't find no Yay
See at first they roll around and their bills they cannot pay
So some be trapped and some be dying, bow our heads and let us pray
Amen
Amen, how many people do you know hatin'?
On your downfall sitting their waitin'
When you shine, wonder what they gonna say then
Everything I do now stadiums
Tell me what they really gon' say to him
And I'm headed straight to the ATM
Finna go HAM, nigga finna go in
Nigga you'll get it when pigs fly, when Yeezy fake
Devil's pie, piece of cake
Kit-kat I need a break
God's child, Jesus Christ
Club like a broken neck, I need the ice
I need the lights, uh
In Egypt they fightin' for freedom
Cop pull you over no reason, beat him
Please Lord, yeah, it's gettin realer everyday
Niggas killin' niggas, starving 'cause they can't find no Yay
See at first they roll around and their bills they cannot pay
So some be trapped and some be dying, bow our heads and let us pray, amen
I got them units packed in that black van like the A-Team
Even seen 'em come two tone like a Saleen (Saleen)
Saleen, Yeah that's a Mustang
Break 'em down in the night, that's what I call hustling
They say they want that dumb shit, but this is ignorance
Come to warn the timepiece, yeah now that's ignorance
They like, Young you a fool, yeah I coulda bought some real estate
Instead I bought a half a block, I tried to sew up half the streets
I'm up seventy five on seventy five, when they was going for the twenty five
Guess who's pickin' up a trey
Just an ordinary day with extraordinary pay
Extraordinary risk
Can't even explain, got an extraordinary wrist
I talk it 'cause I lived it man, this shit ain't really nothin' to me
Tell ya like Sosa told Tony "don't you fuck with me"
Please Lord, yeah, it's gettin realer everyday
Niggas killin' niggas, starving 'cause they can't find no Yay
See at first they roll around and their bills they cannot pay
So some be trapped and some be dying, bow our heads and let us pray
Amen, amen, amen
Amen, amen, amen
Amen, amen, amen
Amen, amen, amen, amen

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”
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
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."
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.

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.
