In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Well
They say you got it
I'll say you got it
That's right, you got it
You got it good
You got it
Oh hell, you got it
You can have it
You got it
You give it away like free samples
But I don't want what anyone can have
You got it
Damn right, you got it
So what?
Keep it outta my face
Keep it outta my face
Keep it outta my face
Keep it outta my face
Yeah
Just 'cause you got it
You think everyone wants you
Just 'cause you got it
You think you're so damn neat
You got it
That's right, you got it
Fuck you
Keep it outta my face
Keep it outta my face
Keep it outta my face
Keep it outta my face
Ow
Yeah
Oh
They say you got it
I'll say you got it
That's right, you got it
You got it good
You got it
Oh hell, you got it
You can have it
You got it
You give it away like free samples
But I don't want what anyone can have
You got it
Damn right, you got it
So what?
Keep it outta my face
Keep it outta my face
Keep it outta my face
Keep it outta my face
Yeah
Just 'cause you got it
You think everyone wants you
Just 'cause you got it
You think you're so damn neat
You got it
That's right, you got it
Fuck you
Keep it outta my face
Keep it outta my face
Keep it outta my face
Keep it outta my face
Ow
Yeah
Oh

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.
Magical

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.
Yeah, I definitely think this is about some slut who dresses scantily that he doesn't want any part of.
