I was waiting in the dark age
Searching for the ones in my life
I'm so far away
But I had hit the ground runnin'

Steady as you go, I don't mind
I'm still here today
Oh, spouting hymns and all's in them
And forever target when it ain't so kind

But it feels like forever
When your mind turns to fiction

And I had took the long way
And I was in the heat and I don't mind
I'm so far away

But it feels like forever
When you mind turns to fiction

Imagine the darks from the skull
In a night without sleep
Vibration comes
First suit I had in months without feet

Spouting hymns and all's in them
And forever target when it ain't so kind

But it feels like forever
When your mind turns to fiction

    My Interpretation

    It sounds like these lyrics are about someone who feels lost and alone, searching for meaning in their life. It's like they're trying to find their way through the darkness and uncertainty.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
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.
