Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Dreams are real
All you have to do is just believe
Dreams are real
All you have to do is just believe
There is nothing that should ever
Take your heart away
From what it is you wanna do
You should always go with what you love
Don't follow no one else
Just do what's good for you
Tell them dreams are real
All you have to do is just believe
Dreams are real
All you have to do is just believe
Sometimes, people try to bring you down
They wanna see you frown, just keep your faith in you
Doesn't matter if they try to tell you
That you'll never make it, this is what you do
Tell them dreams are real
All you have to do is just believe
Dreams are real
All you have to do is just believe
Tell them dreams are real
All you have to do is just believe
Dreams are real
All you have to do is just believe
Dreams are real
All you have to do is just believe
Dreams are real
All you have to do is just believe
Dreams are real
All you have to do is just believe
I believe in myself
And my dreams will come true
I'm nine years old

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.

American Town
Ed Sheeran

Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
This is a good song about dreams and to never let anyone get u down. Never to let anyone change your dreams cause people will try.
