It's in the life that we lead
Set up for money and greed
As if it isn't enough
We have to use it all up
Success
Excess
The truth is inconvenient

All in your head, the reasons, let us forget
You kept your pride in this land

How could you think nothing's wrong
You won't be smiling for long
When it's all gone, gone, we can never go back

Gone into the end, at my spend
Watching the rain come down
Turn your head away, ignore the fear
Watching the ice crash down

How 'bout a justice exposure
How could you screw us all over
Rape, steal, and murder
Got us the almighty dollar
The almighty dollar

Poison the air that we breathe
Change your industrial need
Destroy the soul that you steal, the radiation is real
Beat fate, too late, you built and fueled the fire

You killed my faith, my whole earth desecrate
Deceived the whole human race
I know you think nothing's wrong
We won't be breathing for long
When it's all gone, gone
We can never go back

Gone into the end, at my spend
Watching the rain come down
Turn your head away, ignore the fear
Watching the ice crash down

How 'bout a justice exposure
How could you fuck us all over
Rape, steal, and murder
Got us the almighty dollar

Dead human disaster
The point of no return
No thing like ever after
Is it too late to learn

Gone into the end, at my spend
Watching the rain come down
Turn your head away, ignore the fear
Watching the ice crash down

How 'bout it's just an exposure
How could you fuck us all over
Rape, steal, and murder, got us the almighty dollar
The almighty dollar

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
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.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
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”
