Kings Never Die

歌词
[Chorus: Gwen Stefani]
在这里停留
Here to stay
即使当我已经离开了
Even when I'm gone
即使我已经合上双眼
When I close my eyes
时间可以流逝
Through the passage of time
但是王者永不逝去
Kings never die
我能听到鼓手下的鼓在震动
[Verse 1: Eminem]
以及喇叭的吹鸣,有人正在召唤着谁,我知道审判日即将到来(trumpet是上帝使自己被听见的方式)
I can hear the drummer drumming
但我飞奔逃离那里,我站在山峦的顶点
And the trumpets, someone's tryna summon someone, I know something's coming
但是突然开始坠落,完全不是我所设想的那样
But I'm running from it to be standing at the summit
是不是,我太直接、给的太过,让人接受不了(人们各种指责EM歌里煽动暴力,反同性恋,毒品,妓女
And plummet, how come it wasn't what I thought it was
从前一无所有,到现在得到我所有想要的,但是不是得到的太多了(得到名声的同时,失去了太多)
Was it, too good to be true?
然后我要再重新失去一次?所以我磕了药
Have nothing, get it all but too much of it
如果不,眼睁睁地现实又会再跌到哪里去?
Then lose it again, did I swallow hallucinogens
我坐在路西法(堕落天使)的恶穴中,坐在荷兰烤箱旁
Cause if not, where the hell did it go?
我决定要堕入罪恶(EM与恶魔做抗争却失败)
Cause here I sit in Lucifer’s den by the dutch oven
即使意味着我要出卖我的灵魂,我也要再次成为不容置疑的终极斗士
Just choosing to sin
我会不惜一切代价就为了赢(白人的肤色使他更易遭到社会、他人的攻击)
Even if it means I'm selling my soul, just to be the undisputed again
因为那该死的乌云始终遮蔽着我的脑袋
Do whatever I gotta do just to win
围绕着我的脑袋,荆棘丛中刺出
Cause I got this motherfucking cloud over my head
向内戳裂我,那些碌碌无为的傻子们
Crown around it, thorns on it
还真的以为我的堕落回地下,再也回不来了,是不是?
Cracks in it, bet you morons didn't
那我现在再回去变成地下的失败者,怎样?(地下的underdog根本没他的水平)
Think I'd be back, did ya?
但是无论我像疯狗一样吠地多响,但这游戏是我从来不会屈服的(可能最近的风格有人会说他像狗一样狂叫;但EM从不为了流行而特意添加水分;)
How 'bout that I’m somehow now back to the underdog
我抱怨着游戏,我叫喊着、愤怒着,对它又爱又恨
But no matter how loud that I bark, this sport is something I never bow-wow'd at
但是我发现可以消除我心头那像山一样沉重的疑惑、痛苦
I complain about the game, I shout and I pout, it's a love-hate
即使你们婊子们打算把我驱逐出去,而我也确实很失落
But I found out that I can move a mountain of doubt
我唯一离开的时间是在城里飙车,我下落不明,我深陷疑惑(指2011年代言克莱斯勒汽车超级碗总决赛时的广告)
Even when you bitches are counting me out, and I appear to be down for the count
因为,我迷失了,想要弄清楚我如何才能回归,我绝不是懦夫(跟电影Southpaw中主角一样,想要重新赢得尊重,并在音乐里走的更远)
Only time I ever been out and about is driving around town with my fucking whereabouts in a doubt
必须站起来,破釜沉舟,不然还不如直接放弃
Cause I been lost tryna think of what I did to get here but I'm not a quitter
练习,短暂小息,或者进步,但是绝不停下
Gotta get up, give it all I got or give up
我想要继续自己的坚持,但是好像又发生了什么不对的
Spit on, shit on, stepped on, but kept going
你开始往下一个目标前进,但是好像他们的尊重早已不再(而且现在咨询繁杂,媒体和人们的注意点几乎每周都在变)
I'm tryna be headstrong but it feels like I slept on my neck wrong
但是有人曾经告诉我
Cause you're moving onto the next, but is the respect gone?
王者应该是永不逝去的
Cause someone told me that
不要给我那些讲虚假的煽情故事,不要找借口、给我布那些道,
(Kings never die)
你都从没直面那火焰,继续往深攫取
从没有人在我生命中给过我什么,甚至是机乘人员
[Verse 2: Eminem]
我才不在乎其他一切与我登顶无关的事
Don't give me that sob story liar, don't preach to the choir
抹去我一路上的所有人
You ain't never even had to reach in the fire to dig deep
我想我知道为什么那么多rapper想要在一首歌里,想跟我合作来给他们的歌添彩
Nobody ever handed me shit in life, not even a flyer
那(EM的部分)确实足够好,足以让我早点去离去
Wouldn't even take shit into consideration
告诉那些新出的艺人,王者永远不会逝去
Obliterate anyone in the way
我知道这么多年里事情变了很多,去他们的twitter,(EM讨厌社交媒体,
I think I see why a lot of rappers get on these features and try to show out on a track with me
刚刚是不是说我退到舞台后去了?别人用此来成名,他偏不。所以他的twitter没有关注任何人)
But it'd actually have to be a fucking blowout to get me to retire
我为什么要在网上?这让我抓狂
Tell these new artists that kings never die
我拿着猎枪想要试着去看看
I know shit has changed in this age, fuck a Twitter page
我的东西网上挺火的,但是并没有引起大轰动
Did it just say I've been upstaged?
只是得到上台舞台表演的机会
Why am I online? It's driving me crazy
底下的留言摇摆不定,我可以听到他们在说,
I'm riding shotgun tryna get a gauge
如果我继续保持清醒和热情,我可能还可以像Jay-Z一样的传奇(Jay_Z不像EM在圈中经常被被恶意中伤)
Almost hot, but I'm not gonna' conform
要我卷土重来,看起来好像我曾经离开过(EM在09年休整后,即使歌火了,人们仍旧不满意,觉得EM不如从前)
With a stage pass and this shit
但是那些诋毁我陨落的人,又一直说些《Renegade》的屁话(EM与Jay-Z合作)(普遍认为EM在Jay_Z自己的歌里完全盖过他的风头,你尊重Jay_Z,为何不尊重我)
And opinions sway, I can hear them say
他们要逼我丧失我的理智
If I stay passionate maybe I can stay Jay miraculous
现在我重新开始,走上舞台,但我觉得我像困在笼子里
Comeback as if I went away
(EM在现实生活中是shy的,每次在台上表演都让他觉得像被囚禁在笼子里耍杂技一般
But detractors just say so much for the Renegade
他们极度渴望王者陨落(从职业生涯一开始,就很多人希望他被下架;还有恶意诋毁的人,看不顺的人等等
Someone's gonna make me blow my composure
难怪我会取笑他们,因为他们从来都赢不了我(在过去,EM会反击那些针对他的人,并且从来都是他赢)
Here I go again, center stage and I feel like I'm in a cage
所以,管他妈的那些愤世嫉俗的人说什么屌东西
Some want a champion to fall
我只管继续前进,因为我有墙可以靠背支撑
I still wonder why I laugh at 'em, cause why care when I'm awesome?
而我现在又再次成为攻击的目标,我看起来就像张贴在墙上的海报一样明显
Fuck what these cynics say
在这幽闭的笼子里,看着录音室里白金唱片(plaque也能指菌斑)
Just goes to show that when my back's against the wall
从地板一直蔓延到门边
And I'm under attack again, that I'll act as if I'm posted up
难道它们也单单只是象征,为了他们叫我“回”到那个所谓“水准”(奖杯的意义本来就是人为附加的)
With this pent up rage, cause all these plaques in my office
因为那些所有的成就,荣耀,奖项
On the floor stacked against the door
那些奖杯其实根本就什么意义都没有(真正的艺人不会在意奖杯,而是做好音乐)
Are they just metaphors for the odds of when you comin' back again?
因为即使我今天仍在,我也可能明天就会逝去
Cause all the accomplishments, accolades, awards
我不会一直在
And trophies just don't mean jack anymore
在这里停留
If I'm here today and gone tomorrow
即使当我已经离开了
And I'm not gonna be
即使我已经合上双眼
时间可以流逝
[Chorus: Gwen Stefani]
但是王者永不逝去
Here to stay
我想要的,我正在努力去争取,
Even when I'm gone
所以你们不用手下留情,你们阻止不了我
When I close my eyes
批评家们最终会被批评,认为你的东西是毒品,你会得到的所有的东西都是被熏出来的
Through the passage of time
我不会停止,直到我再次,所有单独和在一个宝座
Kings never die
象一个尊敬的象征,或一首诗,或是我所欠的一个颂歌
I want it, I'm coming to get it
扔在空中自己的手臂,并推出了这么辛苦,我的锁骨断了
当我的时间去,我仍然没有离开
[Verse 3: Eminem]
我不知道,但我已经告诉了一个障碍
So you son of a bitches don't duck you’re gonna get Riddick Bowe’d
挡住你的路,把它敲了,时间去了那罐金子,因为
Critics'll end up in critical, think your shit is dope all you're gonna get is smoked then
他们说国王永远不死
And I'm not stopping until I'm top again, all alone and on a throne
只问果酱大师
Like a token of respect, or a homage poem, or an ode I've been owed
它们只是长出翅膀,它们飞翔
Tossed in the air by my own arm, and launched so hard I broke my collarbone
所以,举起手,伸手到天空
And when it's my time to go, I'm still not leaving
试图保持和延长这些时刻
Stop for no one, I don't know but I've been told an obstacle that
引起眼睛一眨
Blocks your road, knock it over, time to go for that pot of gold, cause
他们将要结束了
在确保你的遗产像Shakur
[Bridge: Eminem]
并确保没有人会成为你的
They say kings never die
所以在你离开这个地球之前
Just ask Jam Master Jay
你想让人觉得一个纯粹的邪恶的脑死亡的愤怒
They just grow wings and they fly
执事的话,音节的天才在工作
So, hands up, reach for the sky
再加上我认为他们错认为我的善良软弱,提炼它的吝啬
Try to hold up and prolong these moments
我从奶粉普瑞纳
Cause in a blink of an eye
在烧烤架上煎汉堡
They'll be over
吉尔伯特阿里纳斯的,叫我吉尔伯特阿里纳斯,还呼吁的梦想家
我到了那里的岩石仍然是屏幕的主题是什么
[Verse 4: Eminem]
Khalil正在战场上,因为我从没觉得我们是在制作节奏,我们是在毁灭中产生节奏(Khalil是EM自从Recovery开始制作伴奏)
Tryna secure your legacy like Shakur
这让我感觉到我真的是实实在在坐在王位上的感觉
And ensure that nobody's ever gonna be what you were
曾经这声音,呕吐物,对成功疯狂的渴望,以及生活在贫民区时那些救济粮
So before you're leaving this Earth
在外面肚子叫个不停,抽痛着,饥饿
You want people to feel the fury of a pure evil cerebral berserk
在外面到处寻找机会,但上帝只给我这一次成功的机会
Deacon of words, syllable genius at work
我向你发誓我不会让你失望的
Plus I'm thinking that they're mistaking my kindness for weakness, distill it with meanness
我会名留青史,即使我在底下(地下)我也会
I went from powdered milk to Purina
你绝对不会听到我说我不是
To flipping burgers on the grill for some peanuts
在这里停留
To Gilbert's to arenas, call me Gilbert Arenas, still appeal to the dreamers
即使当我已经离开了
I made it to the silverscreen where Rocky's still what the theme is
即使我已经合上双眼
Khalil on the beat cause making the beat ain’t the same feeling to me as killing the beat
时间可以流逝
So fulfilling to me is what filling a seat is
但是王者永不逝去
That sound, vomit, thirst and how common underground commons eat
王者永远不会逝去
Outsider stomach growl, throbbing hunger
Out-rhyming everyone, God just give me one shot
I swear that I won't let you down
I'mma be around forever, entertain even in the ground
You ain't never gonna hear me say I ain't
[Chorus: Gwen Stefani]
Here to stay
Even when I'm gone
When I close my eyes
Through the passage of time
Kings never die
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Kings never die
