歌词
Started when I was 23
当我还在 23 岁的时候
Actin' like my daddy
行为与我的父亲如出一辙
I know, I know
我就已经知道了
I recognize parts of you in me
我感受到了你就是我的一部分
The parts that can't find peace
无法安宁的那部分
My soul feels old
我的灵魂，如你一般苍老
I made decisions to prove I was different
我下定决心，想证明我与你不同
But you follow me like a ghost
但你的阴影却如影随形
Now I'm a little bit lit and I'm pleading the fifth
如今我已不愿再伤神于这个问题
As I'm making a toast
平凡地过着自己的生活
People say I look like you
人们都说我长相随你
They say that I got your eyes
都说我遗传了你那双眼睛
My mother says I'm tough like you
母亲说我如你一般难缠
Even in the ways that she don't like
哪怕她并不喜欢这样
And I can't change it, didn't choose my blood
生来如此，无能为力
But I made up my mind
但我已下定了决心
That I don't want to be like you

But either way, I got you in my DNA
但如论如何，你已经刻入了我的 DNA
My DNA

I try to just play pretend like I didn't fall apart
我试着假装自己没有崩溃
I'm lonely, like am I the only one?
我如此孤独，难道世界就我一个人？
When blockin' out the shame stops workin'
当自我麻醉不再有用
Can't you tell, can't you tell that I'm hurtin'?
难道就不能来几句毒鸡汤让我放声哭出来么
Hold me if you love me, come show me
如果你还爱我，请抱紧我好吗
Found myself down on the pavement
站在十字路口
No matter which way that I turned, I was low
无论走向何方，都让我感到迷惘
But you went before me and traveled the stories
但好在有你在我身前指引我
Of places that I shouldn't go
把不该走的弯路都告诉我
People say I look like you
人们总说我长相随你
They say that I got your eyes
都说我遗传了你那双眼睛
My mother says I'm tough like you
母亲说我如你一般难缠
Even in the ways that she don't like
哪怕她并不喜欢这样
And I can't change it, didn't choose my blood

But I made up my mind
但我已下定了决心
That I don't want to be like you

But either way, I got you in my DNA
但如论如何，你已经刻入了我的 DNA
My DNA

The T-shirt you gave me in '96

It's bleached and it's faded, but it still fits
被漂白，褪了色，但仍合身
And I know that you thought that you ****** up

And I'm not ready to be anybody's daddy
