鱼和熊掌 我偏要兼得
Fame made me a balloon 'cause my ego inflated
名声可以是个气球使我自负膨胀
When I blew; see, but it was confusing
看吧 最终破裂开来 这让人迷惑
'Cause all I wanted to do is be the Bruce Lee of loose leaf

Abused ink, used it as a tool when I blew steam
滥用墨水，在我需要时把这当作泄愤的工具
Whoo, hit the lottery ooh-wee
一把中头彩 哦耶
But with what I gave up to get it was bittersweet
就拿我为得到而放弃的那些来说，可谓是苦乐各半
It was like winning a used mink
好像一路牺牲赢得一件二手的貂皮衣

To seize the moment and don't squander it
