Don't lay down, lay down
Don't lay down yet
Don't lay down, lay down
Don't lay down yet

This is dedicated to the ones that are broken
Stay here with us
Your time to shine is coming
Trust

Do you know somebody in pain, I know somebody's
All fed up and off in the brain, heartbroken probably
I been broke when life was not gleaming with hope and foggy
But I would never dump it on you, then later say sorry
It be the hardest when a loved one's life isn't starlit
When they call you, they think the smartest way out of it is depart it
You tell 'em that shit retarded, and hate the call even started
Know they heart isn't guarded, not even your art is cathartic
Please think about your people, yo
Ease on about your ego, bro
That's about far as evil go
You don't really wanna fly like an eagle though
But in case you wanna know how sin taste
I wanna try to help another, save a brother from a grim fate
How could you make friends break down and act like an ingrate
Selfishness, that's what it is
When all your family and friends just wanna see a brother live
But if you don't see the gutter through, you're gonna leave the others blue
You make it hard as fuck for us, but think it's easier for you
Damn

It's easier for you
To take yourself away from things we all go through
But if you knew that it was killing me
It's killing me, would you?
Would you still believe that it was easier to do?
World ain't never been easy
Don't lay down, lay down
Don't lay down yet
Don't lay down, lay down
Don't lay down yet

Only the angels know the pain that you hold on to
Why would you leave me lone, just cause it's easy for you?

I know somebody that's stuck down on the bottom
And he deals with his problems in ways that never solve 'em
And I know how he feels inside
Try to give him flowers while he's still alive
I see demons in my sleep
Got a teardrop falling down my cheek
Don't lay down homie you can't leave me now
I woke up in the middle of the night, I was drenched in a cold sweat, stressing
I couldn't fall back asleep so I picked up the phone and I sent you a message
And it said
After everything that we've been through
Through the ups and downs just know that I believe in you
You said you won't leave me, I know I'm a piece of you
So don't you make this hard on us just cause it's easier for you

It's easier for you
To take yourself away from things we all go through
But if you knew that it was killing me
It's killing me, would you?
Would you still believe that it was easier to do?
World ain't never been easy for you
Don't lay down, lay down
Don't lay down yet
Don't lay down, lay down
Don't lay down yet

You
It's easier for you
You
It's easier for you

    The song interprets, mental health awareness.

    Everybody's reality's broken but we can all work together.

    Mental healths a real thing then it leads to physical health.

    He describes believe in yourself, please think about your people meaning loved ones you know and family.

    Health matters, this songs can be very uplifting and brings me joy of listening to strange music.

    Music can also be for therapy but along with strange music it can mean several things for other people as well.

    Music for me is great therapy for programming the mind but I would not be mislead to do bad or violence through music . Music helps cope with things in life and mortality and relieves stress or anxiety.

    Music has been around for thousands of years helping people.

    But the song explained talks about "Mental Health Awareness".

    Everyone on this planet unfortunately has problems but we can all hopefully love one another and express our feelings.

    We all have broken reality's life can get tuff, but we learn to cope with life and therapy for as music helps. N9ne's a great artist musics a talent and an art also expresses how to love one another.

    Lyrical artists and great tunes come along greatly with respect!!!

    I love music...……………………………….

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."

I Can't Go To Sleep
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.

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.
