This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
You promise us a bright golden future
You say you will save the world
That there will be no more hunger and pain
But we only see your golden hands
You say you take care of our survival
Sending us missiles instead
But you just betray us, deny us and lie
And you always say you would
Fight for freedom, fight for rights
I see treason in your eyes
Judas, rulin' with an iron hand
Judas, sittin' in the government
Judas, I am not a Jesus Christ
Judas, you will be the one who's crucified
Your worship money and economy
There's nothing that you wouldn't do
If the payment is right you don't care about life
'Cause economy is your truth
You are the one selling terror and pain
In all the parts of the world
You are preparing the final grand slam
But you keep on tellin' you'll
Fight for freedom, fight for rights
I see treason in your eyes
Judas, rulin' with an iron hand
Judas, sittin' in the government
Judas, I am not a Jesus Christ
Judas, you will be the one who's crucified
Judas, Judas, are you still human?
Judas, Judas, I can't believe it
Judas, Judas, dealing with evil
Judas, Judas
You'll keep on telling you'll
Fight for freedom, fight for rights
I see treason in your eyes
Judas, rulin' with an iron hand
Judas, sittin' in the government
Judas, I am not a Jesus Christ
Judas, you will be the one who's crucified
Judas, rulin' with an iron hand
Judas, sittin' in the government
Judas, I am not a Jesus Christ
Judas, you will be the one who's crucified
You say you will save the world
That there will be no more hunger and pain
But we only see your golden hands
You say you take care of our survival
Sending us missiles instead
But you just betray us, deny us and lie
And you always say you would
Fight for freedom, fight for rights
I see treason in your eyes
Judas, rulin' with an iron hand
Judas, sittin' in the government
Judas, I am not a Jesus Christ
Judas, you will be the one who's crucified
Your worship money and economy
There's nothing that you wouldn't do
If the payment is right you don't care about life
'Cause economy is your truth
You are the one selling terror and pain
In all the parts of the world
You are preparing the final grand slam
But you keep on tellin' you'll
Fight for freedom, fight for rights
I see treason in your eyes
Judas, rulin' with an iron hand
Judas, sittin' in the government
Judas, I am not a Jesus Christ
Judas, you will be the one who's crucified
Judas, Judas, are you still human?
Judas, Judas, I can't believe it
Judas, Judas, dealing with evil
Judas, Judas
You'll keep on telling you'll
Fight for freedom, fight for rights
I see treason in your eyes
Judas, rulin' with an iron hand
Judas, sittin' in the government
Judas, I am not a Jesus Christ
Judas, you will be the one who's crucified
Judas, rulin' with an iron hand
Judas, sittin' in the government
Judas, I am not a Jesus Christ
Judas, you will be the one who's crucified

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.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
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.
But all in all the song is about a politician(king emperor tyrant) that promises to get into power, probably by making people fight(fight for freedom) but he is in only for the money(judas) and doesn't care about(crucified guy!)people. In the end he is just like or worst than the last one. Unlike Judas he doesn't seem to have remorse though. (Justice die!)
