Dedicated (Demo 1999) - demo

歌词
I have a dream of a scene between the green hills
我梦想着有一天,在这翠绿的山峦中
Clouds pull away and the sunlight's revealed
云层消散,日光下澈
People don't talk about keeping it real
人们不再对保持本真泛泛空谈
It's understood that they actually will
因为他们已有对真实渴求的意愿
And intoxicated and stimulated emcees
那些曾经被刺激陶醉的人们
Staring in the trees paranoid or caught in the breeze
在闪烁着星光的树丛中
Watch them flee hip-hop hits
我在这嘻哈的音乐节奏中看着他们望风而逃
Take a walk with me and what you'll see
若你静下心来与我一同走走,也许会看到截然相反的景象
Is a land where the sand is made up of crushed up wax
碎蜡成沙,铺成这片精致的土地
And the sky beyond you is krylon blue
氪光般天蓝,充斥着身后的天空
And everybody speaks in a dialect of rhyme
每个人都能说一口流利的特色韵律
And emcees have left materialism behind them
人们开始摒弃表面的虚像和浮华
Meanwhile I just grip my mic
与此同时,我只握住手中话筒
And hope me and my team make it through alright
但愿乐队成员能奏出正确的音符
Because say what you will and say what you might
如此而来,只管说出你的意愿,说出你的动机
But don't ignore who it's for at the end of the night
只要别忘了这首歌的矛头指向的是谁
Because this is dedicated to the kids
因为这首创作是在为下一代着想
Dedicated to where the music lives
是在为音乐文化何去何从而着想
Dedicated to those tired of the same old same
是致力于那些厌倦了重蹈覆辙的人
And dedicated to the people advanced in the game
致力于那些有勇气向权威发起挑战的人
What's real is the kids who know that something's wrong
何为本真?是后世眼中透露的恐惧
What's real is the kids who think they don't belong
何为本真?是后世不屈于上的信念
What's real is the kids who have nowhere to run
何为本真?是后世们同时被禁锢的臆想
Who are hiding in the shadows waiting for the sun
是他们躲在阴影中,企盼着来日的太阳
I've seen a lot of shit I've talked to a bum
世间如此多不平,皆历历在目
Out on sunset strip he asked me How would you feel
在繁华的日落大道上,我曾与乞丐对话
If everybody acted like you didn't exist
他说,若人们表现的就像你根本不存在于这个世界上,你作何感想?
You'd lose your grip probably eventually flip
你会失去方向,失去把握,甚至可能崩溃
So let it be known the only reason that we do this
所以要让人们知道,我们创作的目的
So that you can pick it up and just bang your head to it
就是你可以握住歌曲的枪柄,朝自己脑袋打一发
While emcees fight to see who can be the commonist
当领导者们为谁最臭名昭著而争斗起来
Be floatin overhead like a space odyssey monolith
给你的感觉就像一块蹩脚的巨石浮于头顶
Over seeing the game over being part of the same old thing
好了,别再坐地旁观,扔掉你保守陈旧的思想
It's all gonna change in a hurricane of darkness and pain
相信,充满了黑暗与痛苦之灾患的社会,必将被取代
And acidic rain and promises that you won't do it again
别等一场酸雨袭来,你再大叫后悔
Meanwhile I just grip my mic
与此同时,我只握住手中话筒
And hope me and my team make it through alright
但愿乐队成员能奏出正确的音符
Because say what you will and say what you might
如此而来,只管说出你的意愿,说出你的动机
But don't ignore who it's for at the end of the night
只是别忘了这首歌的矛头指向的是谁
Because this is dedicated to the kids
因为这首创作是在为下一代着想
Dedicated to where the music lives
是在为音乐文化何去何从而着想
Dedicated to those tired of the same old same
是致力于那些厌倦了重蹈覆辙的人
And dedicated to the people advanced in the game
致力于那些有勇气向权威发起挑战的人
What's real is the kids who know that something's wrong
何为本真?是孩子们眼中透露的恐惧
What's real is the kids who think they don't belong
何为本真?是孩子们不屈于上的信念
What's real is the kids who have nowhere to run
何为本真?是孩子们同时被禁锢的臆想
Who are hiding in the shadows waiting for the sun
是他们躲在阴影中,企盼着来日的太阳
Pulling me close the shadow is warm inside
“再将我拉近这阴影吧,它里面似乎很温暖....”
This is where I feel at home this is my place to hide
“这是我的家,是我终生的庇护所....”
Pulling me close the shadow is warm inside
“再将我拉近这阴影吧,它里面似乎很温暖....”
This is where I feel at home this is my place to hide
“这是我的家,是我终生的庇护所....”

What's real everybody who doesn't feel safe
何为本真?是那些没有安全感的群众
What's real everybody who knows they're out of place
何为本真?是那些没有地位的贱民
What's real anybody with nowhere to run
何为本真?是那些无家可归的罹难
Will hide in the shadows waiting for the sun
是那些躲在阴影中,企盼着来日的太阳的人
