Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
For anyone, for anyone, anywhere that's ever had mutha fuckers tryin' to step on you,
tryin' to step on your dreams, tryin' to step on your life, tryin' to hold you down,
tryin' to keep you low, we got something for y'all mutha fuckers
Chorus:
Fuck 'em if you're doing your thing
They run point a finger
Figer they got it figered out
This whole life is a contradiction
Your who? Hell naw, I won't listen
Blow the universe into submission
Verse 1:
From eternity I could feel it in me
One love, soul vibe, flow incredibly
I said I believe and Ima bend history
I'ma take what I need you don't owe shit to me
They pissed at me for being careless
I ain't always right, but always true
I could fearless
How they react to what I do
Cause they jealous
Gimmie some room I'm comin' thru with the new
Fuck you
Did what I did, I had to do
Bread up on violence and the blue coats
Seen some people get live and now they gone
If you got hate then bring it on
And if you got love then bring it on
Cars crash, people lie
Planes fall from the sky
Mothers get high and babies die
To keep the fear alive
Bridge:
But you ain't gonna ever steal my shine
No, naw, cause it's mine
Verse 2:
Illuminated, all feeling triple X rated
Try to pull me down, but I made it
I'ma give you somethin' from the heart
If it stands in the way, tear that Mutha fucka down, oops,
Turn that bitch around, oops,
How you feelin' now
Come around, go around
I'm alive trawin' sound time
And space shifta, mood lifta, love bringa
Hole filla, strong like gorilla,
In my dreams tryin' to kill a enemy
How you feelin', bigger than theirs drops in the sea
Top billin', deeper than the thoughts you believe
I can read from your action
You ain't got no action
Hear the message, blast son
Wicked plot, jealous lie
Secrets talk, and money buys
Mothers get high and babies die
To keep their fear alive
Bridge
Chorus
Drop:
Take all the little babies across the whole world
And teach those beautiful little boys and girls
The truth

Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?

This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone).
And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.

The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
Holiday

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
Awesome song, I've been a huge fan of Marz ever since he was with Dark Lotus, he was awesome back then, and he still is today.
