Yet another of the duo’s finest works, the song ride is inherits the enthusiasm of a man stuck in his tracks, striving to just reach the end somehow without breaking in the process.Being a practical pessimist the duo expecting the journey in the worst possible way but they enjoying the journey and taking their time to reach the end rather than rushing and just leaping for the end point.
I just wanna stay in the sun where I find
I know it’s hard sometimes
Pieces of peace in the sun’s peace of mind
I know it’s hard sometimes
Yeah we do want to stay in the warmth, the loving , caring and comfortable environment we live in.This is symbolized by the singers desire to stay in the sun where there is comfort and warmth, we do not want to leave our comfort zone, the idea of stepping out and exploring is too damn terrifying.
But we forget how we only got here by stepping out of our previous comfort zone and then expanding over that, our past self looks petty and miserably to be stuck in such a small space in hindsight.Hindsight puts everything in place, it does it every damn time , I know it may seem hard today being up against the whole damn world(i know it’s hard sometimes) but if you do so, your future self will look back and thank you for being so courageous to open all the possibilities for him.
Yeah, I think about the end just way too much
But it’s fun to fantasize
All my enemies who wouldn’t wish who I was
But it’s fun to fantasize
We all do fantasize about how things are going to end and how we will be finally free to explore other ventures in our life but the thing is when all is over and done we will long for the older times, wishing to go back before going back to our depressing, sickening, miserable lives. The hardest thing to do is start again. We all want to end it all in one go and achieve the end game but things will take time to run it’s course no matter how fun it is you will have to work it out to end it all.
A jab to all the rivals by calling them enemies, if one is so good at his job that all the rivals hate your guts, your existence maybe it’s time to level up and lift up your game on a new standard performing for a higher level quality of audience or spectators whom so ever your services caters to. A man said “if you are the most intelligent man in the room,then you are in the wrong room”, this way you won’t learn anything new that will stunt your growth and you can not reach your full potential. The best thing you can do is finish up things, take your leave and find something better to do.
I’d die for you
That’s easy to say
We have a list of people that we would take
A bullet for them
A bullet for you
A bullet for everybody in this room
But I don’t seem to see many bullets coming through
See many bullets coming through
Metaphorically I’m the man
But literally I don’t know what I’d do
It is a common cliche, it is easily said that i would take a bullet for you but it is not practical as until and unless you are somehow connected to mafia or are Walter White in the flesh nobody is gonna pull out a gun and shoot you. It’s metaphorical but still highly exaggerated bullshit nobody gives a damn about unless you are in a really old drama movie setting. Cause as the artist puts it, he can’t see even the sloghtest possibility of any bullet coming through in that particular area.
I am the MAN, said anyone who is stupid enough to come and see what is and what is not.
