This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
In my historical oracle
I blast metaphorical
Editorials educating
In my territorial get torn
Heavily armed with seventy bombs
That'll blast devine like the heavenly song
Your men'll be gone
If they explore my deepest thoughts
I beat hearts in two then ask demons for chalk
I'm dreaming a stalk
MCees in the dark I walk
Blindfolded the mines golded
Watch how you talk
My styles is an art
Recognize lycially purity
All hell breaks loose like a mall with no security
The dopest vocalist
With my third eye, I focus with
I proceed, flow with the speed of an INDY motorist
There's more of this than wasted
Shiny chains and bracelets
I hit tracks my toungue weigh
For the brains to blaze in
Amazin angelic, tell it to your people
Illedelph is like the sun 'cause we shine with rhymes
Underground is like the moon you only see us at times
And at times with light skies when the stars recline
Jedi Mind, outer space, coincide and combine
Illedelph is like the sun 'cause we shine with rhymes
Underground is like the moon you only see us at times
And at times with light skies when the stars recline
Jedi Mind, outer space, coincide and combine
Raw poems, bury your body in catacombs
Rip your soul from your limbs
Like brims from Jip Jones
In the Twilight Zone we disperse cowards
Vampires that stalk earth on reversed hours
Nite cause we talk a different song
My latitude is God darts out my jaw
Leave eternal scars
You left breathing out of tubes
Straws by the marksman, harnessin'
Science for the marvelous and the charlatan
Raps will make your parallax
My domain has power to block synapses I daze
War shots fight of by the army type warlock
Devil's Plan is to have you drip in the Clorox
Beast deceiving us ways devious possessing
My peeps to walk streets with stolen heat like Prometheus
Elements rushin' you back to hell again
Illadelphians crush your skeleton into fuckin' gelatin
Illedelph is like the sun 'cause we shine with rhymes
Underground is like the moon you only see us at times
And at times with light skies when the stars recline
Jedi Mind, outer space, coincide and combine
Don't ever come at me with war
I've severed scores of orators
Rappers fall onto all fours like minotaurs
With Jedi Mind and the planetary be bombin' this
We stayin' one step above you like a pharmacist
With Ominous detonate the bomb
Heads dread hallucinogenics in Vietnam
I spit a psalm create bombs like an Iraqi
Swear on the bible and then lie to Ecclesiastes
Assault and battery
Battle me that'll be what splits you
Store enormous amounts of energy in a crystal
We boa constrict you
The gods are militant
You faggots couldn't go the length
Like you was impotent, you ignorant
Your whole click gets split in half
You step in Allah's path, and face Allah's wrath, what
Illedelph is like the sun 'cause we shine with rhymes
Underground is like the moon you only see us at times
And at times with light skies when the stars recline
Jedi Mind, outer space, coincide and combine
Illedelph is like the sun 'cause we shine with rhymes
Underground is like the moon you only see us at times
And at times with light skies when the stars recline

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Blue

Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
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.
The line is:
"with stolen heat like Prometheus."
This is the benefit of white girls listening to rap. They are well versed in their Greek Mythology.
In any respect, that line is so ridiculously brilliant.
