Survivor - Eye of the Tiger
Rising up, back on the street
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance, now I'm back on my feet
Just a man and his will to survive
So many times it happens too fast
You trade your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive
It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the eye of the tiger
Face to face, out in the heat
Hanging tough, staying hungry
They stack the odds still we take to the street
For the kill with the skill to survive
It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the eye of the tiger
Rising up, straight to the top
Had the guts, got the glory
Went the distance, now I'm not gonna stop
Just a man and his will to survive
It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance, now I'm back on my feet
Just a man and his will to survive
So many times it happens too fast
You trade your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive
It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the eye of the tiger
Face to face, out in the heat
Hanging tough, staying hungry
They stack the odds still we take to the street
For the kill with the skill to survive
It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the eye of the tiger
Rising up, straight to the top
Had the guts, got the glory
Went the distance, now I'm not gonna stop
Just a man and his will to survive
It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The song mentioned here signifies death and the need to survive, As you continue to listen to this song you can see a man struggling against his decisions, and his needs to rise to power. This song portraits Jack perfectly as throughout the story, he continues to rise to power and slowly turn his passion to glory, meaning he turned his ability to kill into a survive method to keep his team mates alive. "Rising up, straight to the top.. Had the guts, got the glory" is mentioned in the song and as comparison to Jack, he was one of the few who had the guts to commit such malicious deeds in the story. This song also symbolizes Jack's will to survive, after all he is simply just a human.

[Bridge - Eminem:]
Feels like a close, it's coming to
---- am I gonna do?
It's too late to start over
This is the only thing I, thing I know
[Verse 1 - Eminem:]
Sometimes I feel like all I ever do is
Find different ways to word the same, old song
Ever since I came a long
From the day the song called "Hi, my Name Is" dropped
Started thinkin' my name was fault
Cause any time things went wrong
I was the one who they would blame it on
The media made me the, equivalent of a modern-day Genghis Khan
Tried to argue it was only entertainment, dog
Gangsta? Nah, courageous balls
Had to change my style, they said I'm way too soft
And I sound like AZ & Nas, out came the claws
And the fangs been out since then
But up until the instant that I went against it
It was ingrained in me that I wouldn't amount to a shitstain I thought
No wonder I had to unlearn everything my brain was taught
Do I really belong in this game? I pondered
I just wanna' play my part, should I make waves or not?
So back and forth in my brain, the tug-o-war wages on
I don't wanna' seem ungrateful or disrespect the artform I was raised upon
But sometimes you gotta' take a loss
And have people rub it in your face before you get made pissed off
Keep pluggin', it's your only outlet
And your only outfit so you know they're gonna' talk about it
Better find a way to counter it quick and make it, ah
Feel like I've already said this a kabillion eighty times
How many times can I say the same thing different ways that rhyme?
What I really wanna' say is if there's anyone else that can relate to my story
Bet 'cha feel the same way I felt when I was in the same place you are
When I was afraid ta'
[Hook - Sia:]
I was a... afraid to make a single sound
Afraid I would never find a way out
Afraid I'd never be found
I don't wanna' go another round
An angry man's power will shut you up
Trip wires fill this house with tip toed love
Run out of excuses for everyone
So here I am and I will not run
Guts over fear (the time is near)
Guts over fear (I shed a tear)
For all the times I let you push me round
And let you keep me down
Now I got guts over fear, guts over fear
[Bridge - Eminem:]
Feels like a close, it's coming to
F--k am I gonna do?
It's too late to start over
This is the only thing I, thing I know
[Verse 2 - Eminem:]
I know what it's like, I was there once, single parents
Hate your appearance, did you struggle to find your place in this world?
And the pain spawns all the anger on
But it wasn't until I put the pain in songs learned who to aim it on
That I made a spark, started to spit hard as shit
Learned how to harness it while the reins were off
And there was a lot of bizarre shit, but the crazy part
Was soon as I stopped saying "I gave a ----"
Haters started to appreciate my art
And it just breaks my heart to look at all the pain I've caused
But what am I gonna do when the rage is gone?
And the lights go out in that trailer park?
And the window is closing and there's nowhere else that I can go with flows
And I'm frozen cause there's no more emotion for me to pull from
Just a bunch of playful songs that I make for fun
So to the break of dawn here I go recycling the same, old song
But I'd rather make "Not Afraid 2" then another mothar---in' "We Made You", uh
And I don't wanna' seem indulgent when I discuss my lows and my highs
My demise and my uprise, pray to God
I just opened enough eyes later on
Gave you the supplies and the tools to hopefully use that'll make ya' strong
Enough to lift yourself up when you feel like I felt
'Cause I can't explain to y'all how dang exhausted my legs felt
Just havin' to balance my dang self
When on eggshells I was made to walk
But thank you, ma, 'cause that gave me the
Strength to cause Shady-mania,
So when they empty that stadium
'Least I made it out ta that house and a found a place in this world when the day was done
So this is for every kid who all's they ever did was dreamt of one day just getting accepted
I represent him or her, anyone similar, you are the reason that I made this song
And everything you're scared to say don't be afraid to say no more
From this day forward, just let them a-holes talk,
Take it with a grain of salt and eat their f--kin' faces off
The legend of the angry blonde lives on through you when I'm gone
And to think I was a...
[Hook - Sia:]
I was a... afraid to make a single sound
Afraid I would never find a way o-o-out
Afraid I'd never be found
I don't wanna go another round
An angry man's power will shut you up
Trip wires fill this house with tip toed love
Run out of excuses for everyone
So here I am and I will not run

The meaning of this song is quite difficult to understand, once you get past the message written that the media blames everything on other people, it discovers another meaning of the song that can be related to Jack in Lord of The Flies. The meaning that connects with Jack is his gut and once again his rise to power however, it also explains how Jack at first was also afraid but later on throughout realized he is the leader of his own world, and he has the "Guts over fear".
"An angry man's power will shut you up", indicates Jack's ability to use fear to rise to leadership, also another quote that can be related to Jack is "Haters started to appreciate my art" , connecting to subliminal message that at first the children at the island were afraid of Jack and didn't approve of his way of ruling the island, but later on turned to the other side and supported Jack and themselves became monsters.
The Dark Knight Rises - Theme Song
(Created by Hans Zimmer)
- This song is composed by Musical Instruments -
This beautiful soundtrack composed by the legendary Hans Zimmer, tells the story of a dark knight who rised to power through cruel ways. However, the question of "Why chose a song without lyrics? Although this is considered a soundtrack and not a song, I chose this masterpiece because It's a perfectly matching soundtrack that fits perfectly once Jack, in this case "The Dark Knight" reaches full power , but the plot twist is that the media believes that the leader is believed to be an act of evil, and shall no receive such title. In the novel Jack was eventually crowned the chief, but many believe that his ways of cruelty and intimidation are not acceptable, and that a true leader must rise without hurting another individual. This can be seen as Jack takes on a devilish personality but, beyond the story, is he doing this to run a successful community or for his own personal needs?

This song demonstrates the behavior of Jack and Ralph gets progressively intense and shows the theme of insanity, It's also quite ironic how the title of the song is "Welcome to the jungle" as compared to the story of Lord of the flies which are boys on stranded on the island and Jack "Welcomes them to his island". This song takes on Jack's personality and behavior to the extreme as throughout the novel can be seen doing things that can be logically considered insane, as his addiction towards hunting progressively gets worse and worse as long with his actions. The song itself represents craziness written all over and relates quite well to Jack.
This song empathizes the demons inside Jack, the darkness inside him and his ability to do things most humans would consider evil. This song also refers to the "kingdom" Jack wishes to build alongside his comrades. The line in the lyrics that can relate to jack the most if the following; "No matter what we breed, we still are made of greed, This is my kingdom come(x2)", the meaning behind this, is that peace will never be achieved because we are filled with greed, and you shall join the empire with the most power and the intentions of evil exactly like the character Jack is portrayed in Lord of the Flies.
Imagine Dragons - Demons
When the days are cold
And the cards all fold
And the saints we see
Are all made of gold
When your dreams all fail
And the ones we hail
Are the worst of all
And the blood’s run stale
I wanna hide the truth
I wanna shelter you
But with the beast inside
There’s nowhere we can hide
No matter what we breed
We still are made of greed
This is my kingdom come
This is my kingdom come
When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide
Don’t get too close
It’s dark inside
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide
At the curtain’s call
It's the last of all
When the lights fade out
All the sinners crawl
So they dug your grave
And the masquerade
Will come calling out
At the mess you made
Don't wanna let you down
But I am hell bound
Though this is all for you
Don't wanna hide the truth
No matter what we breed
We still are made of greed
This is my kingdom come
This is my kingdom come
When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide
Don’t get too close
It’s dark inside
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide
They say it's what you make
I say it's up to fate
It's woven in my soul
I need to let you go
Your eyes, they shine so bright
I wanna save that light
I can't escape this now
Unless you show me how
When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide
Don’t get too close
It’s dark inside
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide
And the cards all fold
And the saints we see
Are all made of gold
When your dreams all fail
And the ones we hail
Are the worst of all
And the blood’s run stale
I wanna hide the truth
I wanna shelter you
But with the beast inside
There’s nowhere we can hide
No matter what we breed
We still are made of greed
This is my kingdom come
This is my kingdom come
When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide
Don’t get too close
It’s dark inside
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide
