Steven marley-
'mind control'
Verse:
Don't let them mold your mind/they
want to control mankind/ seem like their
only intention is to exploit the earth/and
you trust in their deceit/ your mind causes
your defeat/ and so you become an invention/
to distort this earth.
INSIGHT:
Steven in this verse enlightens his listeners
to be careful of what we choose to believe
because there are things that the society
sometimes implements that they claim will
be more beneficial to our lives but, in
turn does, more harm than good, not only
for us, but also for the very earth we
live on. Remember, it's not everything
that glitters is gold, so one sometimes
has to take a closer look to see the ambush.

Tessanne
chin - 'messenger'
Verse:
Your words are your weapon/ shooting down
your brothers/ with your lyrical bullets/
don't you know life and death come from
the tongue/ cutting down your sisters
with your piercing melodies.
INSIGHT:
Tessanne speaks not only to her fellow
colleagues in the music industry with
this verse, but to everybody. The power
of words can cause the rise or fall of
individuals or even a nation. Our thoughts
emanate from our speech, so watch what
you say.

Jason
mraz - 'i'm yours'
Verse:
well you done done and bet I felt it/
I tried to be chill/ but you're so hot
that I melt it/I fell right through the
cracks/ and now I'm trying to get back/
before the cool run out/ I'll be giving
it my bestest/ nothing going to stop me/
but divine intervention/ I reckon it's
again my turn to win some or learn some.
INSIGHT:
Jason speaks of giving his all to the
one he loves. In his pursuit to ensure
his happiness, nothing other than God
can stop him from attempting the task
of seeking his destiny, whatever it may
be. In some situations, we sometime have
to leap and pray to God we fly. |
