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”
Well I stopped my bike outside some joint
I liked the sound that I could here
They was rocking and rolling and ripping it up
Thought I'd get myself a beer
The guy at the door was looking at me
He said what the hell are you
I said man I am a psychokat and I need to talk to you
Well the Devil taught us how to rock
And then he turned us loose
We ain't quite the same as you
But we got a good excuse
I ain't got your fashion sense but boy you sure look swell
But I can make these monsters move and open up the gates of hell
I got me a mean little band I could show you what we do
We could really set this place alight
And if you got the sense or at least the balls to put us on your stage
You would see the wildest thing you ever saw in your damn life
I got me a drummer that hits so hard
He can knock down Fucking walls
And a hellbound slapping bass player that will shake you to your balls
I'll plug in my old guitar just to make it sweet
Then well play some psychobilly that will knock you of your bleeding feet
We'll fill the place with mutants that will drink the whole place dry
Wild and crazy devil girls so hot they'll burn your eyes
You wont regret a thing unless your answers no
If that's the case we'll head on out and give some other lucky bastard a show
We wanna wreck here
We wanna wreck here
We wanna wreck here
That's the only thing we wanna do
I liked the sound that I could here
They was rocking and rolling and ripping it up
Thought I'd get myself a beer
The guy at the door was looking at me
He said what the hell are you
I said man I am a psychokat and I need to talk to you
Well the Devil taught us how to rock
And then he turned us loose
We ain't quite the same as you
But we got a good excuse
I ain't got your fashion sense but boy you sure look swell
But I can make these monsters move and open up the gates of hell
I got me a mean little band I could show you what we do
We could really set this place alight
And if you got the sense or at least the balls to put us on your stage
You would see the wildest thing you ever saw in your damn life
I got me a drummer that hits so hard
He can knock down Fucking walls
And a hellbound slapping bass player that will shake you to your balls
I'll plug in my old guitar just to make it sweet
Then well play some psychobilly that will knock you of your bleeding feet
We'll fill the place with mutants that will drink the whole place dry
Wild and crazy devil girls so hot they'll burn your eyes
You wont regret a thing unless your answers no
If that's the case we'll head on out and give some other lucky bastard a show
We wanna wreck here
We wanna wreck here
We wanna wreck here
That's the only thing we wanna do

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.

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.
