Once I was seven years old,

"Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely."

说你得要多交些朋友不然很多事你得独自承受

Once I was seven years old

It was a big big world,

在那时的我眼中世界很大很远很辽阔

but we thought we were bigger

但我们却总以为自己能将一切掌握

Pushing each other to the limits,

总将自己逼到极限逼到尽头

we were learning quicker

总渴望能笨鸟先飞比别人学得快学得多

By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor

十一岁前就已经堕为烟鬼也喝过不少烈酒

Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure

没钱继续堕落挥霍就外出打工

my daddy told me,

I always had that dream,

我会经常梦到这些

like my daddy before me

仿佛父亲就在我眼前

So I started writing songs,

于是我开始写歌

I started writing stories

把这些故事写进我的歌

Something about that glory just always seemed to bore me

有时候那些个功成名就总会让我厌倦让我莫名难受

'Cause only those I really love will ever really know me

而我始终爱着的还是那些真正懂我的人

Once I was twenty years old,

Before the morning sun,

事业如旭日蒸蒸而上

when life was lonely

I only see my goals,

名利在侧只顾一命往前冲

I don't believe in failure

'Cause I know the smallest voices, they can make it major

总相信即使内心的声音再微弱也还是会有能被听到的时候

I got my boys with me,

而我也还有一群挚友

at least those in favor

至少他们肯支持和陪伴着我

And if we don't meet before I leave,

若哪天离开之前没能来得及道别

I hope I'll see you later

Soon we'll be thirty years old,

很快就到了而立之年

our songs have been sold

We've traveled around the world and we're still roaming

巡演也走遍世界人生得意潇洒自由

Soon we'll be thirty years old

I made a man so happy when I wrote a letter once
