High life
(This song right here)
Ooh
Young Mula baby
That's right
Happy music, happy people
Happy people
Everything is alright
Everything is alright, yeah, come on
Pop a bottle and celebrate
We made it to a new day, yeah
Pop a bottle and celebrate
We done made it to a new day
Oh, I take a hit and just elevate
'Cause today will be a good day
I got my mind right, money right, ready for war
Workin' hard today for a better tomorrow
Hey, yeah, blow the horns on 'em
The sun is out, it's a brand new day and it just dawned on 'em
The smoke in here got 'em floatin' just like in salt water
And break is fast, we gotta cook it just like a short order
Don't feed the hens when the birds covered in cheetah print
A jungle out there and the jail is the zoo that keep us in
Players in gators is crazy, we feel the need to rock 'em
Furs comin' in all different colors like PETA got 'em
Killin' yourself for a salary
Look ya line flatter than stomachs of the women that's runnin', watchin' them calories
Hope that we linkin', we smokin' and drinkin' casually
'Cause life without livin' ain't nothin' but a fallacy (come on)
Pop a bottle and celebrate
We made it to a new day, yeah
Pop a bottle and celebrate
We done made it to a new day
Oh, I take a hit and just elevate
'Cause today will be a good day (come on)
I got my mind right, money right, ready for war
Workin' hard today for a better tomorrow
Hey, I say who's that peekin' in my window?
Is that sunshine? Is that one time?
Let that sun shine through my livin' room
Hospitality is what I'm givin' you
Harsh reality is what I've been through
But I'm not alone, ask her and him too
And they shall tell ya, ain't nothin' better
Than the smell of a new day
And I know the ocean runs dry and the sky gets dark
And ya don't see what He's tryin' to show ya
And I know the wall may seem tall
But if we help each other I guarantee that we get over
And once I'm over, I'll reach back for my brother
And pull him over as well
Keep our heads high and our noses wide open
Hopin' for that new day smell
Love live life (come on)
Pop a bottle and celebrate
We made it to a new day, yeah
Pop a bottle and celebrate
We done made it to a new day
Oh, I take a hit and just elevate
'Cause today will be a good day (come on)
I got my mind right, money right, ready for war
Workin' hard today for a better tomorrow
Yeah, homie, I been waitin' since I was sixteen
To tell 'em what I'm 'bout to tell 'em so I need more than a sixteen
See I'm the only son of Mary and Joe
So I gotta fulfill my purpose 'fore I'm buried, ya know
My momma say she havin' visions of me bein' a missionary
And the hood lookin' at me as a walkin' visionary
So I sit back and wonder will I ever have my time to shine
And die like Pac in his prime
Or will I go out like Len Bias and OD before the tryouts
No tell the reaper no buyout
I'm good, I pray for a head to protect ya
And I gotta walk the streets with the heat as my protection
Still gotta watch my back, still watch my front home
'Cause I seen a lot of niggas die with they gun on
So with that in mind, I just get higher
And pray to the higher Messiah, I'm no liar
And they say that puffin' the fire fucks with your memory
But I got a lot of stuff that I don't wan' remember, see
Like when my homie Ivin died
I like how I never seen a man cry 'til I seen Lance died
Never seen my pops cry 'til I seen my Grams died
And I'm here to tell him that I miss my Grams too
And I wish that I could hug her for mothers day too
And I feel the same way that you do
But we still gotta move on so she can just smile down on us
And I don't want the Lord to ever frown down on us
I know that they really got power in a gun
But I also know that they got power in a tongue
So every time I speak, look I try to speak life
Y'all tweakin' for broads, I tweak life
They said I was 'posed to die as a fetus
My momma said I bind that Devil in the name of Jesus
So now I'm here just to talk to y'all
Come and stroll with me homie, let me walk wit' y'all
Ten million ways to die so I chose
To get my life right by the end of the road
'Fore my body in a casket and I'm stiff and froze
'Fore I'm layin' in a morgue with a tag on my toes
I'm here to tell you take heed to the warnings
School shootings, hurricanes, and global warming
Open ya Bibles up with no hesitation
B.C. was the Genesis, this is Revelations
So you better pick your destination
Tomorrow ain't promised, better pick your destination
Rest in peace B Spencer, rest in peace Beepsy
Shit could be worse so I'm feelin' like Weezy
I wake up in the mornin', take a piss, and wash my hands
Take a knee and thank the Man and leave my life in God's hands, yeah (come on)
Pop a bottle and celebrate
We made it to a new day, yeah
Pop a bottle and celebrate
We done made it to a new day
Oh, I take a hit and just elevate
'Cause today will be a good day
I got my mind right, money right, ready for war
Workin' hard today for a better tomorrow
Pop a bottle and celebrate
We made it to a new day, yeah
Pop a bottle and celebrate
We done made it to a new day
Oh, I take a hit and just elevate
'Cause today will be a good day
I got my mind right, money right, ready for war
Workin' hard today for a better tomorrow
Young Mula baby
Ooh
Young Mula baby
That's right
Happy music, happy people
Happy people
Everything is alright
Everything is alright, yeah, come on
Pop a bottle and celebrate
We made it to a new day, yeah

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.

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.
Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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.
This song is about Celebrating a new day some of us don't even know we will wake up tomorrow and if we will see our loved one's this song is about celebration we gotta thank God for waking us up and cherish us all the time
