From California to London town,
I will hold it down,
I promise so baby please don't go
Cause if nobody hears that tree fall down,
Does it make a sound?
And am I even here if I'm alone
And there's nothing really I can do,
If you're gonna say it's over now,
I'm not used to taking it from you,
And bringing it back to me somehow
Cause I'm a lover not a fighter,
What's the point in life without it,
This world, we could run it, yeah we could run it
From California to London town,
I will hold it down,
I promise so baby please don't go
Cause if nobody hears that tree fall down,
Does it make a sound?
And am I even here if I'm alone
I know that you can tell that I'm afraid,
I'm not used to being on my own,
And I've got so much more to say,
But I don't wanna talk to myself though
I'm not a leaver I'm a stayer,
Yeah you know that I'm team player,
This world, we could take it, yeah we could take it
From California to London town,
I will hold it down,
I promise so baby please don't go
Cause if nobody hears that tree fall down,
Does it make a sound?
And am I even here if I'm alone
Lalalalalalalalala, lalalalalalalalalalala,
I'll lalala a hundred million songs,
But it's sweeter when you sing along
And we could run it
From California to London town,
I will hold it down,
I promise so baby please don't go
Cause if nobody hears that tree fall down,
Does it make a sound?
And am I even here if I'm alone
I will hold it down,
I promise so baby please don't go
Cause if nobody hears that tree fall down,
Does it make a sound?
And am I even here if I'm alone
And there's nothing really I can do,
If you're gonna say it's over now,
I'm not used to taking it from you,
And bringing it back to me somehow
Cause I'm a lover not a fighter,
What's the point in life without it,
This world, we could run it, yeah we could run it
From California to London town,
I will hold it down,
I promise so baby please don't go
Cause if nobody hears that tree fall down,
Does it make a sound?
And am I even here if I'm alone
I know that you can tell that I'm afraid,
I'm not used to being on my own,
And I've got so much more to say,
But I don't wanna talk to myself though
I'm not a leaver I'm a stayer,
Yeah you know that I'm team player,
This world, we could take it, yeah we could take it
From California to London town,
I will hold it down,
I promise so baby please don't go
Cause if nobody hears that tree fall down,
Does it make a sound?
And am I even here if I'm alone
Lalalalalalalalala, lalalalalalalalalalala,
I'll lalala a hundred million songs,
But it's sweeter when you sing along
And we could run it
From California to London town,
I will hold it down,
I promise so baby please don't go
Cause if nobody hears that tree fall down,
Does it make a sound?
And am I even here if I'm alone

I Can't Go To Sleep

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.
Just A Little Lovin'

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Plastic Bag

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.
