歌词
I had an epiphany
我明白
I was repeating history
怎么做都只会是重蹈覆辙
I was doing everything I hated
我对现在所做的一切厌恶至极
The weight on my shoulders
我承受的 (有谁能知道)
I let it all get to me (I let it all get to me)
就让你们压垮我吧
I had an epiphany
我知道
I just smiled at my enemies
我也会虚伪的对着黑子们笑
I was listening to everybody who was talking
我也曾对别人唯命是从,听信一切
But never did **** for me, yeah
但不知为自己做过些什么
I had an epiphany
我清楚
I was looking at everybody else that's up in the industry
我在意这个行业里的每一个人
They ain't as sick as me (they ain't as sick as me)
他们不会像我这样软弱
I had an epiphany
我明白
I was seeing somebody that never had no good intentions for me
我曾经一直苦苦追寻的她,我能够看见她的真心
Now she missing me, yuh (now she missing me)
如今她要失去我了(暗讽自己找不到)
这首歌就是要告诉你们,没人愿意支持像我这样的软蛋!
Moral of the story is that nobody did it for me
难以下定决心做出改变
Had to make a change (nah)
光点缀着城市,而我在那黑暗的地方
I was living in the city with no scene
只有梦想能带我走出去
I had a dream I had to make a lane (yup, yup)
我只知道我不能无用到拿着那份最低的工资,苟活下去
Always knew that I couldn't live off of minimum wage
于是发怒撕碎了那张纸
Ripping the pay stub
我没想过要万人瞩目
I had a minimal taste for all the fame stuff
我身无分文的加入了这场游戏
But I got into the game without a cent to my name
但现在老子的身价和你爱的NBA球星一样
And now I'm ballin' like I'm in the NBA, bruh
不知道什么是满足
And I know I got a lot but I'm not content
你们看我都红了眼,但我不在意
If they ask me to stop, I will not consent
没人能够阻挡我,因为我百发百中(指发行的歌)
Never gonna let nobody block cause my shot to miss
你这只井底之蛙,出了井底也只能仰望我
You can meet me at the top if you hop the fence
你听从他们的话往上爬
And you climb the stairs
你听从他们的话和野兽搏斗
And you fight the beast
你迷失了自己
And you lose your way
但你会再度重逢那一片净土
Then you find your peace
你会醒来,开始憎恨现在的自己
And you do it sober
你去大醉一场
Then you find a drink
慢慢地,堕落到了谷底,无力向上爬
Then you spiral down
而这一切只会不断的重复
And it all repeats
可,我始终相信这不是白日做梦!
And I always had a vision I could get it
我的路我自己走,我的梦我自己做
So I did it by my lonely
不欠别人也从不让别人欠我
I don't owe nobody nothing, never let nobody own me
有点钱就花在“兄弟”身上
Got some money from the music, and I spend it on the homies
但在我成名之前,谁看过我一眼?狠狠抽了鞭 lil Brody(不知道什么梗)
But don't put nothin' before me, gave a whip to little Brody
我才刚刚开始
And I'm only getting started
我仍旧是和别人分一杯羹,但我怎么都“吃”不够
And I'm eating with the people that I starve with
大脑一片空白,我必须要“充电”了
And my batteries, I had to recharge 'em
这种情况下,我创作了一张唱片,但那就是迎合世俗的垃圾
I made an album but that **** was garbage
我被困在大家都爱玩把戏里
Yo, I was trapped in a gimmick
我算是看清了
I finally get it
我来这是为了制作真正的音乐
I'm here to make music that matters
创造那些在我死后仍会被传唱的神作
If I die, it'll all be alright
我赋予它们的灵魂会替代我一直活下去
'Cause the message I gave you will live for me after
明亮的心灵给予我一股力量
And my chapter will highlight a lifetime
此时此刻让我焕然一新的力量
Of energy gave through a bright mind
你从没有试过命悬一线的感觉
How you never had to stand on the sideline
你又怎能听见心的声音
How you the guide to your own guidelines
那是我的觉悟 (你会明白的)
我庆幸自己终于清醒了
That's an epiphany
那是我的觉悟
I had an epiphany, yeah
我庆幸现在明白还为时不晚
That's an epiphany
我知道
I had an epiphany, yeah
我拥有修改历史的能力
我也证明了你们都愚蠢之极
I had an epiphany
你们还敢说我不是创作的那块料吗?
That I could make history
我明白
That I could prove everyone wrong
假如
That told me I wasn't cut out for this music thing, yeah
我阳光、正直,做满有爱的事
I had an epiphany
而不是费心去对付那些满嘴谎话的人,我是不是会变得更好?
What if I took my energy
不,我清楚现在这样才是真正的我
And used it on positive things in my life
把苦痛注入音乐
Instead of the people that lie to me, huh?
人们听了才能感同身受,了解痛苦本身才终能被治愈
Yeah, I had an epiphany
是的,我真的明白
That I could put all of my hurt into music
假如大家知道我没我的歌说的那么好,我其实每日也堕落不堪
And use it for people that might feel the same as me
他们可能不再相信我说的
Yeah, I had an epiphany
听到这首歌我就想到了过去,过去那个傻小子
What if everyone knew my depression was worse than they thought?
异想天开的把音乐当作事业
They probably gonna look at me differently
长大后
Yo, this song got me going back, when I was a stupid kid
意识到你们当中有一半的人甚至不知道音乐是什么
Thinking maybe I could make it in the music biz
这是我的地盘,你们得学着习惯我的做法
And then I figured out the politics
生活就像是电影
And realized that half of y'all don't even know what music is
总有那么一群人试图告诉我,你得在人群前演戏,呼吸都得演,sick
And going nowhere, I told 'em to get used to me
你不能,你也没资格说我该成为谁
Feels like I'm living in a movie scene
我没有参加过派对
A bunch of people trying to tell me how to act and breathe
也许,我害怕在人群前变得醉醺醺的
One thing I never let nobody ever do was tell me who to be
怕别人知道我喝醉之后想妈妈
I never got into the party scene
连我自己都害怕变成那个样子
Maybe I was just scared to drink
怕人们脑袋里想着 “ 你喝醉的样子真是个可怜虫 ”
'Cause addiction it runs in my family
看不透人们复杂的心思
That's someone I was scared to be
只想要一个我能够信任的人
You're looking pitiful compared to me
一个会以他最真实的样子对待我的人
Since I can barely read
说唱时我总能看见自己
All I wanted was somebody I could trust
我发现,原来我在世上也是独一无二的
That I knew would keep it real with me
显然,是我把自己变得这么优秀
Rap's always been a mirror for me
绝大多数人都认为这是我为了金钱,利益下的圈套
That's when I figured out that maybe I'm the one
但我告诉你,我笔下的每个词都是我的亲身经历
That's gotta make it on my own, yeah, it's clear to see
我不会停止往家里寄钱
A lot of people think that what I'm doing is a gimmick
试图以这样的方式,告诉他们我很想念他们
Everything you hear me writing I've been living
我很珍惜和亲人在家里的每个时刻
I ain't quitting, send the money to my family
这是我享受爱的方式
Try to show them that I miss them
我们试图在这虚伪的圈子里保持自我意识
And I cherish every moment when I'm home and when I'm with them
我们试图在这混烂的圈子里得到一份满意的合同
And this is the way that I feel
上帝相信我能做到,Meek Mill 也是这么想的
In the industry of fakes trying to stay real
嗯,夜里躺在床上还在想着
In the industry of lames trying to get deals
“ 我得到的会越来越多 ”...
Lord knows imma get it, that's Meek Mill
我努力偿还债务...
如果我爱的人还在...
Yeah, I lay in my bed at night thinking
在我最初到处碰壁时
"There's got to be more to me"
我常常在想,如果
I'm trying to pay off the mortgaging
我能从失败中汲取经验教训
But the life of the people I love in the midst of it
即便是失败也是胜利
I've always thought that if
有志者事竟成
I learn from mistakes that I'd make
以上便是我的觉悟
Even the losses are victories
便是我对周遭事物的真谛的顿悟
That's when it starts hitting me
我庆幸我终于清醒了
If you set your mind to it you can do anything
终于看清自己
That's an epiphany
That's an epiphany, yeah
I had an epiphany
I had an epiphany, yeah
