This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Everybody is leaving from this town and from me.
They've got the burning flame, they sure achive their aim.
You know that's tough for me to see.
Oh, how I wish that I could do the same as them and go.
Just pack my bags and good-bye.
Get out fast or fade away real slow.
What you see is what you get right here.
Where a change is nowhere near.
What you see is what you get from me.
In this duckpond, leave me be.
I pretend my life is perfect like the faces on TV.
Yeah, that's the only way to face another day.
Try to deny the misery.
But those are the ways of looney's and like a clown.
Yeah, I do act.
No matter where I could be or would like to go.
I'm stuck here. That's a fact.
What you see is what you get right hear.
Where a change is nowhere near.
What you see is what you get from me.
In this duckpond, leave me be.
I'm too weak I'm down on my knees.
Too feeble for something new.
Feels like there's nothing I can do.
Keep on laughing 'bout me.
Keep on doing your own.
But someday I will be that one.
Be that one.
Yeah, someday I will be that one...
Be that one.
Be that one.
Yeah, somday I will be that one...
Be that one.
Yeah, someday I will be that one...
They've got the burning flame, they sure achive their aim.
You know that's tough for me to see.
Oh, how I wish that I could do the same as them and go.
Just pack my bags and good-bye.
Get out fast or fade away real slow.
What you see is what you get right here.
Where a change is nowhere near.
What you see is what you get from me.
In this duckpond, leave me be.
I pretend my life is perfect like the faces on TV.
Yeah, that's the only way to face another day.
Try to deny the misery.
But those are the ways of looney's and like a clown.
Yeah, I do act.
No matter where I could be or would like to go.
I'm stuck here. That's a fact.
What you see is what you get right hear.
Where a change is nowhere near.
What you see is what you get from me.
In this duckpond, leave me be.
I'm too weak I'm down on my knees.
Too feeble for something new.
Feels like there's nothing I can do.
Keep on laughing 'bout me.
Keep on doing your own.
But someday I will be that one.
Be that one.
Yeah, someday I will be that one...
Be that one.
Be that one.
Yeah, somday I will be that one...
Be that one.
Yeah, someday I will be that one...

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
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.
i agree its a good song. and one of the best on Pennybridge, but.... pennybridge is apretty ab dalbum, its still good, but compared to millencolins standards it lacks, i hate to bag the boys out, but all the other MC alkbums were so much better, liek for minkeys and life on a plate, i hated how everyone jumped on the millencolin band wagon when pennybridge was released, all their other stuff is better, their new album home form home is awesome. it beats the he;ll outta pennybridge.
