In Gangsta's Paradise Coolio says: "they say I got to learn but nobody's here to teach me, if they can't understand it, how can they reach me?"

It says so much while being so simple

The song is very misunderstood, this is NOT a gangster song, it's a song about injustice

Threshold's amazing song 'Mission Profile'. It is 20 years old but more relevant than ever.

Can we go on? Can we be strong?

We've got a system you're going to use it
We call it freedom and you are free to choose it
If you're not against it you've got to be for it
Neutral is dangerous and you cannot ignore it

Can we go on forcing our hand?
Can we be strong till others understand?
Can we go on to save our wounded land?
Can we be wrong?

We've got the money we're going to spend it
Peace is our mission we'll murder to defend it
Sooner or later you'll get the picture
We're the creator and you were just created

Devastation is where we're heading if we follow this illusion
Escalation of all the hurting that is borne of our confusion
Unrelenting as we persist in putting everyone beneath us
Never ending until we understand our honesty deceives us

There is still one truth on which we can depend
We've started something we can never end

We know although we try to justify the means
The truth behind the end remains unseen
And while we all assume we all agree
We're giving up the freedom to be free

Disillusion is always possible but we've got propaganda
Mass confusion is always better than the threat of understanding
We'll deceive you we've got so many ways to make you stand behind us
If we need to we'll use them on ourselves to constantly remind us

There is just one lie that we can still defend
We've started something we can never end

We know although we try to justify the means
The truth behind the end remains unseen
And while we all assume we all agree
We're giving up the freedom to be free

There is still one truth on which we can depend
We've started something we can never end

We know although we try to justify the means
The truth behind the end remains unseen
And while we all assume we all agree
We're giving up the freedom to be free

That's indeed very relevent

the brighter my light gets
the darker my shadow grows

 

[dark_tranquility]

Banished from the medical community
One brilliant German forensic pathologist
Johann Casper, his nascent methods on
The rate of rot made him a cunning medico-criminalist
The heady chemical stench of decay set him free
To discover putrefaction patterns others failed to see
Internal and external bacteria coalesced
And illustrated their wisdom in a semi-liquid mess
Professor of Forensic Pathology
Disgraced by Berlin doctors
Misunderstood forensic genius
Nineteenth century medicine
Rejected forensics and outlawed him
Amongst reeking gassy corpses
Casper hatched his dark science
Medical examiners now unite
Bring Casper's Dictum to scientific light


the county medical examiners

there is this one kpop boy group song that has a rap that goes "i don't pay i don't money" and it's very unserious but these days living in poland really makes me relate to this

 

[SnowWhite]

Most Lana del rey songs

 

[dark_tranquility]

Don't want to close my eyes again
Cause every time I do you're there
With that smug look on your face
Don't want to fall asleep again
Cause every time I dream
I love and lose you
Over and over again

It takes a second just to fall in love
It takes a second just to fall in love
Against the odds
Despite myself
Yeah, just one second to love
Just one second to love

[ChiaraStar169]

the little monologue at the end of Get Busy Living or Get Busy Dying by Fall Out Boy is so thought provoking! It's off their second album, From Under the Cork Tree, if anyone wants to take a listen

Not an all-time favorite but the line "Even the iron still fears the rot" from Ethel Cain's "Ptolemea" goes hard
