I can hear her heart beat for a thousand miles
And the heavens open every time she smiles
And when I come to her that's where I belong
Yet I'm running to her like a river's song
She give me love, love, love, love, crazy love

-Van Morrison.

I wanna cut out my tongue and let you hold onto it for me
Cause without my skull to amplify my sounds it might get boring.

I mean, come on. Who comes up with stuff like that EXCEPT for Jack White?

I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies that you've been living in
And if you do not want to see me again
I would understand
I would understand

Now I get up around whenever
I used to get up on time

Gonna kick him on down the line.

The Stars, the moon, they have all been blown out
You left me in the dark.
No dawn, no day, I’m always in this twilight in the shadow of your heart.

That chew your ass out all day long.

Juliet, when we made love you used to cry
You said 'I love you like the stars above, I'll love you 'til I die'
There's a place for us you know the movie song
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?"

The Clash didn’t write that song. It was a Crickets song, covered by Bobby Fuller Four, and then much later on covered by The Clash. So you should be crediting the Crickets.

Cause both Black and White are smoking crack tonight
And the only time we chill is when we kill each other
It takes skill to be real, time to heal each other
And although it seems heaven-sent
We ain't ready to see a black president
It ain't a secret, don't conceal the fact:
The penitentiary's packed, and it's filled with blacks
But some things will never change

Tupac, Changes

Honestly there are so many Pac lyrics that are just as relevant today as in the 90s

See I remember when we were driving, driving in your car
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder

It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
The regular crowd shuffles in
There's an old man sittin' next to me
Makin' love to his tonic and gin
He says, "son, can you play me a memory?
I'm not really sure how it goes
But it's sad and it's sweet and I knew it complete
When I wore a younger man's clothes"

I got my first real six-string
Bought it at the five-and-dime
Played it 'til my fingers bled
Was the summer of '69
