I like Wing$ by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis. For me, it is very emotional/awesome
Lyrics:

I was seven years old, when I got my first pair
And I stepped outside
And I was like, "Momma, this air bubble right here, it's gonna make me fly"
I hit back-court and when I jumped, I jumped, I swear I got so high
I touched the net, "Mom, I touched the net," this is the best day of my life

Air Max's were next,
That air bubble, that mesh
The box, the smell, the stuffin', the tread,
At school
I was so cool
I knew that I couldn't crease 'em
My friends couldn't afford 'em
Four stripes on their Adidas
On the court I wasn't the best, but my kicks were like the pros
Yo, I stick out my tongue so everyone could see that logo
Nike Air Flight, but that was so dope
And then my friend Carlos' brother got murdered for his Fours*, whoa

See he just wanted a jump shot, but they wanted his Starter coat, though
Didn't wanna get caught, from Genesee Park to Othello
You could clown for those Pro Wings, with the Velcro
Those were not tight
I was trying to fly without leaving the ground,
Cause I wanted to be like Mike, right
Wanted to be him,
I wanted to be that guy, I wanted to touch the rim
I wanted to be cool, and I wanted to fit in,
I wanted what he had, America, it begins

I want to fly
Can you take me far away?
Give me a star to reach for
Tell me what it takes
And I'll go so high
I'll go so high
My feet won't touch the ground
I stitch my wings
And pull the strings
I bought these dreams
That all fall down

We want what we can't have, commodity makes us want it
So expensive, damn, I just got to flaunt it
Got to show 'em, so exclusive, this that new Good
A hundred dollars for a pair of shoes I would never hoop in
Look at me, look at me, I'm a cool kid
I'm an individual, yeah, but I'm part of a movement
My movement told me be a consumer and I consumed it
They told me to just do it, I listened to what that swoosh said
Look at what that swoosh did
See it consumed my thoughts
Are you stupid, don't crease 'em, just leave 'em in that box
Strangled by these laces, laces I can barely talk
That's my air bubble and I'm lost if it pops
We are what we wear, we wear what we are
But see I look inside the mirror and think Phil Knight tricked us all
Will I stand for change or stay in my box
These Nikes help me define me, but I'm trying to take mine off

I want to fly
Can you take me far away?
Give me a star to reach for
Tell me what it takes
And I'll go so high
I'll go so high
My feet won't touch the ground
I stitch my wings
And pull the strings
I bought these dreams
That all fall down

It started out with what I wear to school
That first day, like these are what make you cool
And this pair, this would be my parachute
So much more than just a pair of shoes
Nah, this is what I am
What I wore, this is the source of my youth
This dream that they sold to you
For a hundred dollars and some change
Consumption is in the veins
And now I see it's just another pair of shoes

I can't really remember any of the top of my head, however I think Beyoncé a Pretty Hurts has a really good meaning.

Canvas by Rezonate

Tuning out of starlight,
the innocent lifetime flickers and flashes onto a canvas.
No, nobody seems worth it.
And while the feeling's sophisticated, the view is so restrained.
The past is nearing closer, and closer I fear.

So let's just cut the bulls*** and tell me who's independent.
Thumbs twiddling and your life's escaping your mind.
Keep in mind, well the air ain't as free as it used to be,
but that's quite alright when you're still eighteen.

It seems to be, and I'll tell you who's overrated.
What's a beautiful person with some hideous dreams?
While the lining isn't silver,
we're verging on the side of the road that will take us home.

The edge of us is getting weighed,
read about your life in your local paper.
Realize the end of us is getting near,
you're just a droplet of a paint trickled off your canvas.

Delirious, illusions flow back into the river of color
while we analyze to try to see it clearer.
Secretly appealing to a lonely prisoner.
What's your vision?
Initiate your shading and bring the universe together in time,
it only gets a little easier.
Suddenly piece yourself back together.
Now, what's your vision?

And I don't want to have to give a damn about you, or your inhibitions.
And after all you're the one who taught me love was not for everybody.
However, I'm starting to see this world in the right light, yet it still gets darker.
You see, it's just a simple symphony, or a painting? Whatever.

This unnatural path, it spans infinitely,
but my world is crumbling.
Let it collapse into the abyss,
in the midst of summer it won't exist.
This emptiness, it's just a blank slate,
waiting for a painter to interfere.
It's quite complex, but what do I know?

"Move B***H Get Out The Way, Get Out The Way B***H, Get Out The Way"
Ayo my rhymes be the tightest like bones with arthritis (that's tight)
Rockin with the S-U-B, that's why they like us
These crews like computers is filled with mega-byters
And I'm the new virus in town, I shut 'em down
Sound wack? Not the slightest, they filled with new surprises
Rap SCUBA diver, deep like tuba choirs
Rappers can't handle it, Joe just use your pliers
No doubt about it baby, I got what you desire
I coulda had way more hose than firefighters
But I choose not to date those roles, I'm striving higher
I got more game than ESPN
Just walk over to her like "let's be friends"
Went to her house like -- "Little Pig, let me in!"
She opened up the door with the sexy grin
And then (eh-eh) then (eh-eh) that was all she wrote
A lotta motion in the ocean throw me off the boat
Like Jonah, I want it in a special way
Cause she shine in an extraterrestrial way (what?)
I said she shine in an extraterrestrial way (what?)
She shine in an extraterrestrial way, E.T

("Shine shine shine..")

[Verse 2: One Be Lo]

Yo, that night we both shined like a binary star
I still can't believe we let it go this far (far)
This shorty was a forty on scales of 1 to 10 (yeah)
"Thanks, come again!" I was like, "I wonder when?"
It really didn't matter cause yo, she had a pen and some paper
(put my number down) Gimme your number, I'll call you later
Just like she said, ring-a-ling, "Hello?"
E.T. phone home, I played it smooth like a cello
Mastermind the plan and pulled it off like Velcro (I did it)
Hit it and now she feelin all funny like a elbow
"Why you holdin back?" She said, "I'm not"
Communication is the key, unlock
We put our heads together like a Mt. Rushmore
I found what I was lookin for, plus more
Now with you I wanna spend the rest of days
Cause you shine in an extraterrestrial way
I said you shine in an extraterrestrial way (uh-huh)
You shine in an extraterrestrial way, E.T

("Shine shine shine..")
("Shine shine shine..")

[Verse 3: One Be Lo]

Yo, we all know the women outnumber the men
But I wanna play you close like my name was Glenn
Put me in a cornfield, I'm lettin all ears know
So fly momma shoulda named her UFO, yo
She beamed me aboard, we headed back to her planet
Outta this world man, you wouldn't understand it (nope)
Now everybody think I'm all crazy and Good
Can't believe I did a song about this alien chick
But it's true, you can ask Decompoze and Phrikshun (yup)
I'm known to drop science but this science fiction
"Close Encounters of the Third Kind," kinda
Broke telescopes like you could never find her (shine, shine)
Shinin like a "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star"
Now everybody's wonderin who you are
Don't mean to break your concentration, if it's any consolation
I was thinkin me and you could make the perfect constellation
She said, "Ain't nobody never told me that"
I replied, "Girl, can't nobody hold me back"
Kick a flow while my man Decompoze the track
You better recognize the signs like the Zodiac (Scorpio)
We shine in an extraterrestrial way (what?)
We shine in an extraterrestrial way (what?)
We shine in an extraterrestrial way
Homegirl she was outta this world like E.T

("Shine shine shine..")
("Shine shine shine..")
("Shine shine shine, shine..")
("Shine shine shine..")
("Shine shine sh..")
