YOUR theme song?

Any of you ever heard a song and been like "damn, that song
is about ME!" Either that, or you felt you completely
understood what the musician felt %100 upon hearing the song
for the first time?
Ever heard a song that DEFINES you?

For me, it's "Dead" by They Might Be Giants"

I returned a bag of groceries
accidentally taken off the shelf
before the expiration date
i came back as a bag of groceries
accidentally taken off the shelf
before the date stamped on myself
did a large procession wave their torches
as my head fell in the basket?
and was everybody dancing on the casket?
now it's over i'm dead and i haven't
done anything that i want
or i'm still alive
and there's nothing that i want to do
i will never say the word "procrastinate" again
i'll never see myself in the mirror with my eyes closed
i didn't apologize for when i was eight
and i made my younger brother
have to be my personal slave
did a large procession wave their torches
as my head fell in the basket?
and was everybody dancing on the casket?
now it's over i'm dead and i haven't
done anything that i want
or i'm still alive
and there's nothing that i want to do
so i won't sit at home anymore
and you won't see my head in the window
and i won't be around ever anymore
and i'll be up there on the wall at the store
(repeat first verse & chorus)

i cant exactly say a particular song, but there is one album
which i feel completely connected with. when i listen to it
i am complete. it unifies me with the music.

Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here

notorious big - everyday struggle

I don’t wanna live no mo’
Sometimes I hear death knockin at my front do’
I’m livin everyday like a hustle, another drug to juggle;
Another day, another struggle

I know how it feel to wake up fucked up
Pockets broke as hell, another rock to sell
People look at you like youse the user
Selling drugs to all the losers, mad buddha abuser
But they don’t know about your stress-filled day
Baby on the way mad bills to pay
That’s why you drink tanqueray; so you can reminisce
And wish, you wasn’t livin so devilish, ssshit
I remember I was just like you
Smokin blunts with my crew, flippin over 62’s
Cause g-e-d, wasn’t b-i-g
I got p-a-i-d, that’s why my moms hate me
She was forced to kick me out, no doubt
Then I figured out licks went for twenty down south
Packed up my tools for my raw power move
Glock nineteen for casket and flower moves
For chumps tryin to stop my flow
And what they don’t know will show on the autopsy
Went to see papi, to cop me a brick
Asked for some consignment and he wasn’t tryin to hear it
Smoking mad newports cause I’m due in court
For an assault, that I caught, in bridgeport, new york
Catch me if you can like the gingerbread man
You better have your gat in hand, cause man

Chorus

[notorious b.i.g.]
I had the master plan
I’m in the caravan on my way to maryland
With my man two-tecs to take over this projects
They call him two-tecs, he tote two tecs
And when he start to bust he like to ask, "who’s next? "
I got my honey on the amtrak
With the crack in the crack of her ass
Two pounds of hash in the stash
I wait for hon to make some quick cash
I told her she could be lieutenant, bitch got gassed
At last, I’m literally loungin black
Sittin back, countin double digit thousand stacks
Had to re-up; see what’s up with my peeps
Toyota deal-a-thon had it cheap on the jeeps
See who got smoked, what rumors was spread
Last I heard I was dead with six to the head
Then I got the phone call, it couldn’t hit me harder
We got infi

We got infiltrated, like nino at the carter
Heard tec got murdered in a town I never heard of
By some bitch named alberta over nickel-plated burners
And my bitch swear to God she won’t snitch
I told her when she hit the bricks I’ll make the hooker
rich
Conspiracy, she’ll be home in three
Until then I looks out for the whole family
A true g, that’s me, blowing like a bubble;
In the everyday struggle

Chorus

[notorious b.i.g.]
I’m seeing body after body and our mayor guiliani
Ain’t tryin to see no black man turn to john gotti
My daughter use a potty so she’s older now
Educated street knowledge i’ma mold ’er now
Trick a little dough buyin young girls fringes
Dealin with the dope fiend binges, seein syringes
In the veins; hard to explain, how I maintain
The crack smoke make my brain feel so strange
Breakin days on the set, no sweat
Drunk off moet, can’t bag yet because it’s still wet
But when that dry, baggin five at a time
I can clock about nine on the check cashin line
I had the first and the third; rehearse that’s my word
Thick in the game, d’s knew my first name
Should I quit? shit no! even though they had me scared
Yo they got a eight, I gotta teck with air holes..
..and that’s just how the shit go in the struggle
motherfucker

My theme song is "Tomorrow" by Information Society. At my
funeral that's what will be played. And maybe my wedding if
I have one, which I probably won't.
