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.
Everybody been, like, goin' crazy with this, like, autotune and shit
And I don't need no tune for the auto
All I'm missin' is you
I done made it out that fire like it's magic
If you ain't with me, I don't wanna see you happy
I'm just tryna spend my Easter in Miami
My baby told me stay out the way and stick to rappin', yeah
Now why you got the money for if you gon' waste it?
Lil' Kodak, ain't you tired of livin' crazy? Boy, you famous now
I'm just tryna spend my Easter in Miami
And I need it on my first day out, bitch, that's my last day in
I'm in all kind of shit, I'm chillin' at the Days Inn
I've been prospering, prayin' I don't get prosecuted
I can't believe that you can really leave me lonely
You don't even call to see if a nigga hungry, yeah
I done stood up in that water with all kind of divers
I done made it out that fire, like a firefighter
I'm in Cleveland quarantining with a baddie
Ducked off, we ain't poppin' out until they find a vaccine
I told my lawyer, boy, I love you like a daddy
And I'ma catch a charge before I let them take advantage of me
I done came home so much, I already know they tired of me
Ran up out of prison, I ain't say bye to nobody
I want sushi then some coochie, no more lunch trays, yeah
Had to stop showin' everybody where my mama stay, yeah
Trump just freed me, but my favorite president is on the money
All the hate and prejudice has become evident to me
Tryna quit takin' trips with the carbon
But I know you niggas won't miss the chance if you could harm me, yeah
This my first day out, bitch, I want a head massage
Ain't no rumor, I keep shooters in my entourage
Got the white bitch talkin' like a nigga ho
I be runnin' with the Z's, like I'm Piccolo
Spend my Christmas in Miami, yeah, Caresha Brownlee
They ain't even wait 'til you went to prison, they left you in the county
I been savin' up the money on my Sundays
Know you only wish for you to see me sufferin'
Whatever I spend on you is less than what you makin' me
Who spent the biggest bag on you? Girl, don't play with me
'Cause I don't want to have to show you that I love you, baby
If you ever cheat on me, guess what I'm gon' do, baby?
I don't know, I think it's over for this rap game shit
This my first day out the joint, so that my last day in
Yeah so, I was on the horn with my mama
You know, that's my Z queen
And she like, "Son, you got a beautiful voice"
I was blowing to her, sayin' this to her and shit
Say this my last day in, know what I'm sayin'
Yo ta tiye m tou, tone kraze m pap pran prizon
Yeah so, creatin' a healthy and a happy lifestyle
I'm so proud of myself and how far I've come
Always kept it real, even when no one's lookin'
And I don't need no tune for the auto
All I'm missin' is you
I done made it out that fire like it's magic
If you ain't with me, I don't wanna see you happy
I'm just tryna spend my Easter in Miami

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."
Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
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.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
