歌词
How does a bastard, orphan, son of a whore and a
一个野种,孤儿,荡妇生的苏格兰后裔
Scotsman, dropped in the middle of a forgotten
冥冥之中降生于加勒比海的不毛之地
Spot in the Caribbean by providence, impoverished, in squalor
肮脏破落,一贫如洗
Grow up to be a hero and a scholar?
如何成长为一代才子,一代传奇
The ten-dollar Founding Father without a father
十美元上的国父,被父亲抛弃
Got a lot farther by working a lot harder
却天道酬勤,他出人头地
By being a lot smarter
凭借天资聪颖
By being a self-starter
凭借自强自立
By fourteen, they placed him in charge of a trading charter
刚到十四岁就掌管公司的远洋贸易
And every day while slaves were being slaughtered and carted
每天无数奴隶被屠杀,被虐待,被迫飘洋过海被人贩卖
Away across the waves, he struggled and kept his guard up
亚历山大不愿同流,坚守自己的看法
Inside, he was longing for something to be a part of
他内心渴望一个归属,一个家
The brother was ready to beg, steal, borrow, or barter
他早已做好了准备巧取豪夺,讨价还价
Then a hurricane came, and devastation reigned
突然一场飓风来袭,家乡满目疮痍
Our man saw his future drip, dripping down the drain
此君眼见自己的前途也要随波飘离
Put a pencil to his temple, connected it to his brain
于是他动了动脑子,拿起一支笔
And he wrote his first refrain, a testament to his pain
发表了他的第一篇诗作,倾诉心中疾诉
Well, the word got around, they said, “This kid is insane, man”
消息传开,人们说到:这个孩子太厉害了嘿
Took up a collection just to send him to the mainland
家乡筹款送他去了大陆上的北美
“Get your education, don’t forget from whence you came, and
“去上学吧,别忘了这是我们给你的机会
The world's gonna know your name. What’s your name, man?”
你将扬名立万大有作为,说吧,你是谁?”
