This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Why did you need to take that pill?
it never has and never will
make you better make you well
you\'re shackled in your self-inflicted cell
sunlight you\'ll never see
you\'re a prisoner of pharmacology
and you\'re telling me you feel fine
never better
that\'s what you said in your last letter
that was read aloud at your memorial last week
where are you now?
up above?
I hope you find some kind of love
that isn\'t bottled or tamper-resistant
but unconditional and consistent
the peace you\'ve spent you lifetime searching for
if this is what it takes
maybe others can learn form your mistakes
and turn off that blacklight before it gets too late
it never has and never will
make you better make you well
you\'re shackled in your self-inflicted cell
sunlight you\'ll never see
you\'re a prisoner of pharmacology
and you\'re telling me you feel fine
never better
that\'s what you said in your last letter
that was read aloud at your memorial last week
where are you now?
up above?
I hope you find some kind of love
that isn\'t bottled or tamper-resistant
but unconditional and consistent
the peace you\'ve spent you lifetime searching for
if this is what it takes
maybe others can learn form your mistakes
and turn off that blacklight before it gets too late

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.

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
after my dad died from chemical dependency, i would have never thought to have found a song like this. im so lucky i did though because it literally changed my life. since that day a few years ago when i first heard this song, i have been a die-hard good riddance fan. die-hard becuse they saved me and i owe my life to them. had their amazingly positive messages never made their way to my ear, i would be just another statistic. i am not the person i once was because their music has inspired me and gotten me on the right track, away from the things that i once thought would help. without them and their music, i wouldn't be living a life worth living. i give this song credit for making me a fan and i thank this song.
