The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
(Ooh, Sav killed it) yuh, grrr
Boat
Ayy, think I'm in love with my bitch momma
Red rag wrapped around the head like I work for Osama
My bitch pussy bald head look like Dalai Lama
Who got the percs I need f-f-fifteen
My asian bitch rich and bold London Tipton
How the fuck cop knew that bro someone tipped him
Soon as we find out bet that we dip him
Heard that the opps got locked up we gon' bond him
Huh, we gon' find him, tie him up and grind him
These niggas dick suckin' what I thought I signed him
Would shine some light on him but it might blind him
Ayy, I need a eighth of wo'
Never leave the house, I'm strapped, boy, you know I keep my pole
Chopstick on me and it sing like Nat King Cole
Nigga think he flexin' money, boy, I seen mo'
Nigga think he flexin', big hoes, we fucked em before
Shouts out YN Jay I know he gon' get the Rolls
Ayy it's Big Boat, play with me I stick tote
Ain't no sick note, finna get me a Rick coat
I do not tip toe I'm good where I walk
Miss me some wok keep some wok in the stock
Jet skis at the dock got a boat by the jet skis
Been fuckin' bitches since the Gameboy SP
Been fuckin' bitches since a nigga was a lil' one
Playin' with my name I'mma make a nigga feel sumn' on God
I ain't finna make no band I got a real drum
Perky got me bitin' down like it was real gum
Oh they said the opps in the party imma still come
Call of Duty only difference is I got a real gun
I can say some smart shit make you feel dumb
If I beat your doonies down you gon' feel numb
I don't wanna buy that pint if it ain't sealed up
I'm finna put your bitch out I think I smelled somethin'
Niggas waitin' on they stimulus like, "when the mail coming?"
Nigga you do not own shit like, "when the bills coming?"
Damn, my battery's going dead got my scale jumpin'
Phone slappin' all day I got sales comin'
I was posed to be there at eleven, it's like twelve somethin'
Why the fuck you flashin' five thousand, that ain't real money
You can't jugg me if I was blind I can feel money
I can't bring young dog around he'll steal somethin'
Draco with a banana clip, I'll peel somethin'
I just threw a party yesterday and it's still jumpin'
Coach said shoot it from the three but I still dunked it
Yachty, why you do that, man?

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”
Holiday

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
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."
