Song #1: "Don't Kick The Chair" by Dia Frampton ft. Kid Cudi



        The first song is "Don't Kick The Chair" by Dia Frampton ft. Kid Cudi. It is a very good example of the transcendentalism because it promotes the belief that you can't let pressure from everyone around you break you down or change you, as stated in the chorus with the lines "Have you ever felt like everybody’s watching waiting for you to lose have you ever felt like you’re living in a spot light searching for the real you" and "Don't kick the chair, it can only get better". In the part of the song performed by Kid Cudi, he says "You don't need no help, you can be better all by yourself" which correlates with the transcendental idea that you can do anything you put your mind to, and don't need to be dependent on other people. All in all, this song is a great example of transcendental views in the way that it promotes believing in yourself and not letting the pressure of society get to you or change you.
