Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
Why you ain't check for me when I been showin niggas that we got the recipe
Naw get the fuck off me! You luv a nigga once he talk about his pedigree
Lemme say it's plain as day to me, the admiration lacks sensitivity
It's the 21st century
And niggas still can't just be, apparently
Men lie, women lie, as do numbers out
The mouths of them both and on that I could die
Loaded dice throwing whites
Wanna make me think that they're on my side; it's not like I can't see why
It's been
More than 10 years of writing just like this
Nobody paid me any mind, nobody gave a shit
Niggas start saying nigga, suddenly we important
Now a nigga feels
Fucking intolerant
You want to see me cry, you fucking assholes, and decipher my
Vocal fry while I contemplate suicide?
You can pay my life while I bring everything I
Said under my breath up into the light
I would make a living out of cussing out
Everyone who ain't listen
It just might be the middle child in me but it's worse to
Get ignored than told straight up you won't be shit
Hell yeah I'm hatin, niggas don't
Know shit about patience
I spent 14 years training
I spent 14 years waiting
Dan Yemin is my OG, I can't believe he fuck with me
Next to that I guess it means that
Jeremy B is big homie. Did I need to get put on to understand my worth? I was
Ready to quit before this shit and now hella people got our shirts
People ignore us
At home then talk us up while they touring
Y'all love us when it works for you and
That shit is fucking boring
Why you ain't check for me
When I been showin niggas that we got the recipe? Naw get the fuck off me!
You luv a nigga once he talk abt his pedigree
Lemme say it's plain as day to me
The admiration lacks sensitivity
It's the 21st century and niggas still can't just be
Afforded a real representation of the full breadth of their humanity in art, in film, in
Music
It's so steadfastly true I'll literally tell you and nothing will happen
Nothing
Will change
Global cultural control will stay ours in a dangerous dance of achilles
Heels and superpowers
Why was so much blood lost, and who gonna pay off that
Cost? Yea duh niggas can be soft, and you can also fuck the fuck off
Naw get the fuck off me! You luv a nigga once he talk about his pedigree
Lemme say it's plain as day to me, the admiration lacks sensitivity
It's the 21st century

Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.
The Night We Met
Lord Huron
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
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."
