Infrared, yeah, you know what I mean?
Infrared, yeah, you know what I mean?

[Verse]
醒醒,游戏结束了
The game's ****** up
洗脑副歌和毒性节奏让你声名鹊起
******’ beats is bangin', *****, ya hooks did it
你回击的桥段如川普上任一般滑稽
The lyric pennin' equal the Trumps winnin’
俄罗斯人背后做了甚么自然明晰(Trump 当选有俄罗斯人的帮助,详见通俄门事件)
The bigger question is how the Russians did it
妙笔生花如 Nas 之作,可惜都来自 Quentin(Quentin 帮 drake 代写了 10 Bands,R.I.C.O,It was written 是 nas 在 1996 年发行的专辑)
It was written like Nas, but it came from Quentin
受愚弄于规则丢失的说唱游戏
At the mercy of a game where the codes is missin
Kanye 也被友情的光芒所蒙蔽(Kanye 是 G.O.O.D Music 的 CEO,Glow 是 Kanye 和 Drake 的合作单曲)
When the CEO's blinded by the glow it's different
我同 Cole 和 K.Dot 都无疑是这一代的中流砥柱(NO Drake)
Believe in myself and the Coles and Kendricks
你这手偶就继续被玩儿着走你的浮夸舞步(暗讽 Drake 找枪手,只是一个说唱工具)
Let the sock puppets play in their roles and gimmicks
栽种,还记得威尔·史密斯赢得第一座说唱类格莱美?(Best Rap Performance 颁奖没有电视转播,威尔·史密斯因故抵制)
S**t, remember Will Smith won the first Grammy?
榆木脑袋们甚至在 Jay-Z 采样 Annie 之后才认可他的赫赫功绩(Jay-Z 第一座格莱美源自其 1998 年发行的专辑 Vol. 2… Hard Knock Life)(写不下看评论)
And they ain't even recognize Hov until "Annie"
So I don't tap dance for the crackers and sing Mammy
所以我不为这群白皮猪跳踢踏舞,扮演慈祥老奶妈(Mammy 是白人对黑人种族主义的刻板印象,即顺从,母性,慈祥的黑人保姆,同时也可能暗指 Al Jolson 的一场名为“My Mammy”的黑化表演)
'Cause I'm ’posed to juggle these flows and nose candy (yugh)
我能玩耍着行云流水的 flow,飞着 coke
Ferrari, my 40th, blew the candles out
法拉利的轰鸣将我对岁月的惶惑卷去,我不畏年老再次发力
Tom Brady’d you ******, I had to scramble out
所向披靡如汤姆·布雷迪,摁下加速键我绝尘而去(Tom Brady 是 NFL 著名球员,Pusha T 想表达他和 Tom 一样老当益壮)
They be ridin' these waves, I pulled my sandals out
他们追随浪潮,而我像耶稣在水上前行(耶稣水行在马太福音的 14:22-33 中,Pusha 将自己提升到神一样的境界,表明不随波逐
Jefe Latin my Grammy, I went the Spanish route
流的态度)
Oh, now it’s okay to kill Baby
拉丁老板,格莱美谁在乎,老子另辟蹊径
****** looked at me crazy like I really killed a baby
哦,现在已经可以做掉 Birdman?(Baby 为对 Birdman 的蔑称,Cash Money 的 CEO,Pusha 与他积怨已深)
Salute Ross 'cause the message was pure向Rick Ross
人人瞪目结舌,好像我真的干了他一弹(Pusha 在 15 年公开 diss 过 Birdman,人们对此十分惊讶,同时用这个台词来描述 Birdman对 lil wayne 的打压)
He see what I see when you see Wayne on tour
致敬兄弟 Rick Ross,立场纯粹而坚定(Rick Ross 是当时极少数支援 Pusha T 骂 Birdman 打压 lil wayne 的 rapper)
Flash without the fire
当你能看到 Weezy 巡演之时,他和我看见的是同一个世界(指 Lil wayne 与 Birdman 的战争处理时间长)
Another multi-platinum rapper trapped and can't retire
焰火在高光之时殆尽
****** get exposed, I see the cracks and I'm the liar?
又一个说唱巨星身陷桎梏无法退休,纵然多白金在手(之前类似的示例还有 Dr.Dre;Tha Carter V 一直无法发出,直到 2018 年才重见天日)
S**t, I’ve been exposed, I took the crack and built the wire
我洞悉真相将你曝光,谁是骗子?(这是对 Drake 的回击,因为他在 Two Birds One Stone 曾质疑过 Pusha T 的街头信条)
Now who do you admire?
啥 b,我有前车之鉴,但我全身而退又建了火线(他的客户经理 Tony Gonzalez 因为卖货判了 32 年牵连到了他,The Wire 是根据巴尔的摩的毒品战争改编的 HBO 节目)
Your rap songs is all tryin' my patience
如今你尊重谁?
Them prices ain't real without inflation
你的 diss tracks 在不断地与我的耐心作对
I done flew it, I done grew it, been a conduit
没有通货膨胀,他们的价值都得原形毕露(Diss 其他没有水准的口水 rapper)
Moynat bags on my b*****s, I done blew it
花钱整着狠货,生意蒸蒸日上
See through it, neck, igloo it
票子到手,马子腰间立马配上摩奈包
Habla en español, I "y tu" it
项上冰钻,冰屋般亮眼
Let Steven talk streamin' and Shazam numbers
用西班牙语来说,你,和我?
I'll ensure that you gettin' every gram from us
让 Steven 来处理流媒生意(Steven Victor 是 Pusha 的经纪人;Shazam 是苹果旗下一款音频识别应用)
Let's cram numbers, easily
我们绝不缺斤少两(Pusha 说明自己的音乐就像 cracks 一样令人上瘾)
The only rapper sold more **** than me was Eazy-E
成绩数据,手到擒来(直接回应 Drake 在“Two Birds One Stone”中夸耀自己商业的巅峰)
How could you ever right these wrongs
走货这方面只有 Eazy-E 能一较高下
When you don't even write your songs?
代笔作家笔耕不绝
But let us all play along
你要怎样迷途知返?
We all know what ****** for real been waitin' on
不过让我们一起好好玩玩吧
Push. (I do so, yeah)
真正的倪哥总是在最后出场
[Outro]
king push
Infrared, yeah, you know what I mean?
Infrared, yeah, you know what I mean?
Infrared, yeah, you know what I mean?
I'm gone, I'm gone, you hear me?
I'm gone
