This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I’m gonna start again
This world I painted black
Just needs some colour
I’m gonna live my life like the other
Person I should have been
I ain’t tapping out, no no no no
To this dark and twisted dream
That’s kept me living
I pray to my soul
To keep its fire burning
And when it does
I’m gonna let it shine
I’ll make the best of this life I’ve got left
Got no time for no regrets
Gonna show you just what I can be
The person I should have been
And it might take time, take time
'Cause this life has taken it right out of me
I wanna change my perspective of reality
Be a much better version of me
The person I should have been
I make the best of this life I’ve got left
Put my sincerity to the test
Wake up my senses finally
The water washes me clean
What shouldn’t have been has all been done
If I don’t get a grip
Then the world has won
Making me think that I’ll never be
The person I should have been
Who am I now?
A lonely man that’s fallen down
No I can’t change
The past that time has all burned out
But I know somewhere inside of me
Is the person I could have been
Make the best of this life I’ve got left
Got no time for no regrets
Gonna show you just what I can be
The person I should have been
What shouldn’t have been has all been done
If I don’t get a grip
Then the world has won
Making me think that I’ll never be
The person I should have been
I said the person, person I should have been
The person, person I should have been
The person I should have been
I said the person, person I should have been
This world I painted black
Just needs some colour
I’m gonna live my life like the other
Person I should have been
I ain’t tapping out, no no no no
To this dark and twisted dream
That’s kept me living
I pray to my soul
To keep its fire burning
And when it does
I’m gonna let it shine
I’ll make the best of this life I’ve got left
Got no time for no regrets
Gonna show you just what I can be
The person I should have been
And it might take time, take time
'Cause this life has taken it right out of me
I wanna change my perspective of reality
Be a much better version of me
The person I should have been
I make the best of this life I’ve got left
Put my sincerity to the test
Wake up my senses finally
The water washes me clean
What shouldn’t have been has all been done
If I don’t get a grip
Then the world has won
Making me think that I’ll never be
The person I should have been
Who am I now?
A lonely man that’s fallen down
No I can’t change
The past that time has all burned out
But I know somewhere inside of me
Is the person I could have been
Make the best of this life I’ve got left
Got no time for no regrets
Gonna show you just what I can be
The person I should have been
What shouldn’t have been has all been done
If I don’t get a grip
Then the world has won
Making me think that I’ll never be
The person I should have been
I said the person, person I should have been
The person, person I should have been
The person I should have been
I said the person, person I should have been

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
Wu-Tang Clan
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.
