Response : 

Like A Rolling Stone

Once upon a time you dressed so fine
Threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?
People call say 'beware doll, you're bound to fall'
You thought they were all kidding you
You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hanging out
Now you don't talk so loud
Now you don't seem so proud
About having to be scrounging your next meal
How does it feel, how does it feel?
To be without a home
Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone
Ahh you've gone to the finest schools, alright Miss Lonely
But you know you only used to get juiced in it

This are the some of lines which are connected to my schooling Life when I was in hostel and in the finest school which was very different days of my life and this are themes which are visible like  identity, isolation, loneliness, loss.

Fire and Ice 

I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice

Response : 



The Songs lines "A Change Is Gonna Come" by Sam Cooke: This soulful anthem addresses issues of racial inequality and discrimination. Like "Blowin' in the Wind," it reflects on the struggle for justice and the hope for a better future. 

Lyrics
I was born by the river
In a little tent
Oh, and just like the river, I've been running
Ever since
It's been a long
A long time coming, but I know
A change gon' come
Oh yes, it will
It's been too hard living
But I'm afraid to die
'Cause I don't know what's up there
Beyond the sky
It's been a long
A long time coming, but I know
A change gon' come
Oh yes, it will
I go to the movie
And I go downtown
And somebody keep telling me
"Don't hang around"
It's been a long
A long time coming, but I know
A change gon' come
Oh yes, it will
Then, I go to my brother
And I say, "Brother, help me, please"
But he winds up knockin' me
Back down on my knees, oh
There been times that I thought
I couldn't last for long
But now, I think I'm able
To carry on
It's been a long
A long time coming, but I know
A change gon' come
Oh yes, it will

Songwriter : Sam Cooke
And the themes of this songs are faith, hope and justice.
