Be creative, be daring. Take the scenic route.

[Grouch & Eligh:]
All I need is,
My heart and soul to live.
I've seen this road before,
And I'm'a drive it again, survive it again.

[Chorus: Grouch, Eligh, Jo Wilkinson]
All I need is,
(all I need)
My heart and soul to live.
(heart and soul)
I've seen this road before,
(seen this road)
And I'm'a drive it again, survive it again.
(drive, sirvive)

[Eligh:]
I'm only human. I gotta make my mistakes in life.
That means I probably travel similar roads more than twice.
Details are tattered on my battered brain,
Every time I take a path where my footprints already lay.
Memory late, takin on my struggles.
Tellin me plain to my face that I've been here before.
Open the lane to my ?(feature)? I'll be ?(mashin)? a highway.
On the way I'll be taking detours tryin to make it my way.
Monday through Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
Every day lurks like time was a man in the dark with a cane.
Beating you down like a raggedy dog with a mane of pain.
Insane thoughts drop like rain, on the windshield of your auora.
Makin it hard to breath but I believe,
If I keep marchin this path, eventually I'll succeed. (in, in, in who you are.)

[Chorus]

[Grouch:]
Choose your weapon. Back to the basics,
Activate this auto-pilot function junction straight.
Let's navigate to a new lunar height.
Noon to night I'm guided by the tune it's the height,
Mister bright and Doctor bass got the concaulction.
Auction a taste off, lofty costin'.
Heavier hit, ready or not,
Drop, skip the beatin' path, hop toward the hills and the sleepin grass.
Peel the cover off, butter-soft skin emerged, word.
Where you goin's where I've been.
But I've never been where you've gone.
Our paths'll cross soon, keep on, keep on.

[Eligh:]
Please God, tell me how to get from A to B.
I keep on doing things that destroy my energy.
My energy's suffering at the hands of my physical needs.
I guess my eyes couldn't see past these, a material greed.
But here and now I understand that bein' a man has nothing to do with,
[?] and detail while we sail, these same waters.
Daughters and sons dying in the seas for the contempt of life.
Hangin' in the tree from the past aggression.
Layin on the beaches bakin in your mistakes.
You put us on the earth to wander and find a niche.
Due to that fact alone, I believe that life's a bitch.

[Grouch:]
History repeats, the story never peaks.
When you get to where you reached, reach again.
Takin' what you seek.
At your highest point celebrate and then retreat.
I guarantee you missed the mountain (?choppin but that aint weak?).
Freak'a nature, I'll freak the nature of the beat.
The peice or feature, at least I'm growin.
Goin' in circles like the planet.
And if that's good for mother earth, God damnit.
You see, I've landed on the path of the sinnin man.
And when I finish I'm goin' back to the beginning man. Righteous.
Not outta sight this is purely in my blueprints.
I'm on this road, just cruisin.

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Mountain Song
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."
