歌词
[Intro: Benny the Butcher]
Yeah, you know?
你知道吗?
Tana Talk 4, this shit mean a lot to me, know what I mean?
这对我来说很重要,你懂我意思吧
You know this shit don't feel as good as it look (Big Griselda)
要想人前显贵,必须人后遭罪
I'ma keep it real with you (Black Soprano Family)
我同意你说的
I'm straight though (I'm good)
不过我熬过来了
This street shit made me what I am today
这条街带给我的压抑刺激了我的成功
Niggas know I worked so hard for this shit
所有人都看到了我的付出
Niggas know I deserve this shit, nigga (Ah)
所有人都明白我配得上今天的成功
Butcher comin' nigga
butcher来了
[Verse 1: Benny the Butcher]
This ain't my story 'bout rags to riches
我的故事没有从贫民窟到百万富翁那么夸张
More 'bout how I master physics (Uh-huh)
不过我疯狂自律
In the game, I used to train like Rocky, catchin' chickens (Yeah)
在这场游戏中,我努力训练好比拳击手洛奇日常抓鸡
I was nice, but they was right when they told me that rapper business
我本来就混的不错,后来身边人告诉我说唱这门生意有搞头
I had ten bands in my stash when I passed over half a million
我放弃了挣到50万的机会,用我1万块的存款开启说唱生涯
Come easily, no good, don't be surprised I outlast these niggas
有些人迅速成名,又很快岌岌无名,所以别奇怪为啥我比那些人强
It's like they put out a smash then they gon' in a flash, admit it
他们的成名就好比一闪而逝的烟火,同意吧
And then they made tracks and diss us like that's gon' add up the digits (**** you doin'?)
他们出歌嘲讽我就是为了蹭热度
They showin' fake racks in pictures like that's gon' attract the bitches
然后再穿一身假货发一发朋友圈,搞的自己真的很有魅力似的
That was really me, nigga, I ain't have to acted conflicted (Nah)
我一直玩真的,从不说一套做一套
Only difference is I'm livin', and I would've whacked one of 'em niggas
跟他们的区别是不扣键盘,现实中也能轻松拿捏他们
Who knew that after drug dealin', I still be casual spendin' mil' plus
不卖货以后,我照样吃香喝辣
Annual income, so here's my manual and some
彷佛手里拿着赚钱手册,年度收益不用担心
And this Eastside shit still in me, my ability
东海岸的精神一直都在,这种精神塑造了我的能力
To turn words to imagery prolly the reason they gon' remember me (Let's go)
我的词汇图文并茂,让人印象深刻
Figure me, walk this tightrope with a feline's agility
看我,有着猫的灵敏度可以穿越钢丝
The streets did so much shit to me, I can never live civilly
这条街给我的刺激太多,我改变不了一身匪气
I can never leave the scene withouth checkin' my mirrors visually
如果没在镜子里认真审视过自己,我也走不出这种环境
Come with that energy, cause some shit always gon' stick with me
带着对成功的渴望,很多事情都让我烦心
They wanna know what I brought to Griselda, I say, "Validity"
他们想知道我给griselda带来了什么,我说别人的认可
They askin' what work us niggas put in, I'm like, "What didn't we?"
他们问我们付出了什么代价,我说 什么罪我们没受过?
Problems that I correct through the obstacles I progress
在这条荆棘路上我取得了很多成就
And logical for them to feel they responsible for our success
所以我会成功也是合情合理
Besides Con' and West, tell me who else I gotta respect (Who else?)
除了Conway和Westside Gunn还有谁值得我们尊敬
'Cause I'm kinda perplexed, it's 'bout time that I got my respect
我不知道该怎么回答,是时候该我成为大哥了
It's the Butcher, nigga
这就是我,哥们儿
Ah, let's go
开始吧
[Interlude: J. Cole]
该轮到我当大哥了,这里是butcher,哥们儿
Bout time that I got my respect, it's the Butcher, nigga
由cold来表演
Yeah, Cold ****in' World
griselda,你知道我的意思
Griselda shit, you know what I mean (Griselda)
你知道我的意思,当我出现
You know what it is, nigga, when I show up
我顶满了
I'm on ten nigga, not nine
一个深夜我出生了,大雨滂沱,上帝在哭泣
[Verse 2: J. Cole]
On the night I was born, the rain was pourin', God was cryin'
雷电劈中电线,停电了,火花四溅
Lightnin' struck, power outage, sparks was flyin'
天选之子出现,年轻的男孩,后面跟着一头狮子
The real one's here, the young boy that walk with lions
他们站在尸体的圈线外
Around the outlines of chalk where the corpses lyin'
没错,我正在尝试掀起一场文艺复兴
Of course I'm tryin' to revive a sport that's dyin'
但他们想要的只有枪支和药丸
But the guns and the drug balls that y'all relyin'
那些傻子们觉得他们跟我一样硬
Got these nerds thinkin' that you niggas hard as I am
但是我们不一样,因为我活在谎言中会很不舒服
But that just mean I ain't as comfortable as y'all with lyin'
不会夸大事情,我在录音室里不会有任何压力
Stretchin' the truth, no, I never stress in the booth
他们感到了压力,我却像刚做完按摩般一身轻松
They feel the pressure, me I feel like I just left the masseuse
没怎么用力,看我在伴奏上轻松驾驭
Effortless, how I'm skatin' on these records was proof
我给你们最爱的rapper们的脖子上套上绳索,不让他们好过
I put your favorite rapper neck in a noose, never lettin' them loose
我的歌声穿越了你的音箱
Cold World, the heater blast through your speaker
每首都惊艳的像最后的莫西干人那般,我出的都是狠货
He the last of Mohicans, no weaklings last in my sneakers
他们想让我出歌,因为想欣赏我恐怖的实力
Nigga want me on a song, he gon' see the wrath of the reaper
如果上帝想跟我做歌我可能得去地狱走一遭
I'm prolly gon' go to Hell if Jesus ask for a feature
我的灵感源源不断碾压同行,不需要靠抽草来刺激
I'm higher than niggas and don't need a bag full of reefer
有些人看到玻璃杯是空的,我看到的是以太物质
Some see the glass as empty, I see a glass full of ether
他们收取着那点面包钱,像天主教牧师
Collectin' his bread in mass like he a Catholic preacher
再看看我的钱吧,你得雇个数学老师来数
Just to count a nigga cash, you might need a calculus teacher
我感觉到了,就像爱因斯坦领悟到了相对论的那一刻
Eureka, Einstein on the brink of the theory of relativity
没有MC能跟我匹敌,我的笔就是上帝之鞭
Really no MC equal, feel me, Cole pen be lethal
房子豪华的像是MTV秀
Crib like an old MTV show, uh
上帝,我就是现存的最好的rapper,枪枪爆头
On God, the best rapper alive, headshot
现在问问那些死去的rapper
Now go and ask the best rappers that died
他们会告诉你我没撒谎
They tell you he never lied, nigga
我太狠了
[Outro: J. Cole]
Yeah, Tana Talk
