You know I gotta say something
你知道我有話要說
Check
聽好了
Here's a tale that must be told
有個故事我必須要講
Picture this a 12 year old
想像一下，有個小男孩
Maybe 13 but that's the max
他只有12歲或者再大一點
You know I gotta say something
你知道我有話要說
Check
聽好了
Here's a tale that must be told
有個故事我必須要講
Picture this a 12 year old
想像一下，有個小男孩
Maybe 13 but that's the max
他只有12歲或者再大一點
Definitely no older than that
但絕對不會超過13
This thing's called rap had him open in fact
他遇到了rap，這開啟了他的新世界
It wasn't enough just ownin' the tracks
他知道只擁有一些tracks是不夠的
Learnt every song word for word
於是他逐字逐句地學每首歌
Thought of himself as the opening act
想起他的第一次“個人秀”
No stage no microphone
沒有舞台沒有麥克風
Just a bathroom mirror maybe a comb
有的只是浴室里的一面鏡子，或許還有把梳子
Blink of an eye and the world of his own
他沉浸在自己的世界裡
Just like that king on the throne
就好像他是寶座上的王
Until one day he simple felt
直到有一天他意識到
In need of a way to express himself
他需要一種方式來表達自己
Pen and a pad line after line
他拿起筆和紙，寫下一行行歌詞
Just him and his rhymes nobody else
除了他和他的韻詞再無其他
Of course he wasn't the illest in sight
當然他是個有自知自明的人
In fact he sucked but still he would write
實際上他有點菜，但他仍在堅持寫歌
Little by little the feelin' was right
漸漸地，他有了對的感覺
That eventually he would be killin' the mic
最後他覺得自己能把麥唱爆
After school freestylin' flows
放學後freestylling上的fiow
Countless ciphers talent shows
各種才藝表演比賽
World revolved around his craft
世界都圍繞他精湛的技術旋轉
His passion and his happy codes
他的flow是他熱情和快樂的代碼
Mom and pops had rotten views of
可他的爸爸媽媽思想很守舊
Hiphop and would not approve
他們接受不了Hiphop
They stood firm no matter how hard he tried
不管他多努力去地說服，他們都堅持自己的看法
They could not be moved
不為所動
Still he let his fire burn
但他心中的說唱熱情從未退減
Hopin' that the tide would turn
希望著這種形勢會有所轉變
Until that day his prime concerned
直到有一天他發現他最關心的
Was your respect he tried to earn
是用實力贏得你的尊重
Maybe that's why at the time
也許這就是為什麼在那時候
Only one thing was on his mind
他腦海里只有一件事
Everyday every night mic or no mic
白天黑夜，有麥無麥
All he wanted to do was just rhyme
他唯一想做的事就是押韻
But who whoever the heck would listen
但有誰會聽呢？
Witness a lyrical exhibition
有誰見證這情感的流露？
Wherever he went no matter the time
無論何時，無論何地
He battled for props and recognition
他為了獲得支持和認可去battle
Parkin' lot at the mall outside of a bathroom stall
在超市外的停車場、洗手間外面
Didn't matter who single or a crew
不管對方是一個人還是一群人
Line 'em up and he would battle 'em all
讓他們排好隊挨個跟他battle
Eatin' rappers was all he knew
他所知道的就是幹掉每個rapper
Soon his reputation grew
很快他有了些名氣
No matter what he was goin' through
不管他之前經歷了些什麼
Step up stage and he feel brand new
只要一登上舞台，他就覺得煥然一新
Still that wasn't enough to fulfil
但他仍然不夠滿足
His thirst and hunger for something more real
他如饑似渴地追求一些更真實的東西
Whatever the case continue the chase
不管怎樣都要繼續追求
Can't change your fate once it is sealed
一旦夢想被封存，你就無法改變命運
Meanwhile back home sounds the same
與此同時，他回到家總會聽到一些質疑
Folks started and now complain
周圍人開始抱怨他
How he doesn't even care
說他一點也不在乎
That the family business is goin' down the drain
家裡生意上的失敗
Truth is he's aimin' for more than just the fame and stardom
事實上他追求的不只是自己的名聲地位
Deep down inside he just wants to keep his family from starvin'
在內心深處，他是想讓自己的家人遠離飢餓
So even though they hated it kept him motivated
所以儘管家人反對，但這也激勵著他前進
If you have never seen this struggle
如果你從來沒有經歷過這種（夢想與現實的）掙扎
Before how will you recognize when you have made it
你又怎會真切體會到成功的滋味？
Finally graduated parents were agitated
終於他畢業了，父母為他前途感到不安
The dream and hope of their son goin' to college has gradually faded
讓兒子上大學的夢想也漸漸放棄了
He was determined to shine
他下決心要發光發亮（做出點成就）
Time on the grind tryna get signed
時間被消磨，他試圖去得到簽約
Looked for a break anywhere he could find
在他能找到的任何地方尋找機會
A never endin' ladder for him to climb
（這種日子）就像是在爬沒有盡頭的階梯
Knockin' on doors only to meet
為了獲得面試機會去敲每一扇門
So called execs who don't wanna greet
但那些高管連招呼都不想跟他打
All they expect is soap on their feet
那些人只是一心想趕他走
He stays anyways go on a beat
但他不離開，他打著拍子唱著
That's when they see he's kinda raw
當他們看到他不加修飾的樣子
Never encountered his kind before
發現他是他們之前從未遇到過的類型
Rhyme before not like any of the artist
他的韻律不像以前的任何一個藝術家
That they've ever signed before
他是他們之前從未簽過的類型
Whatever the case they wouldn't explain
不管什麼情況，他們從都不解釋（為什麼拒絕他)
No matter the label it was the same
也不管是哪個廠牌結果都是一樣的
Walkin' on in walkin' on out thank you for comin'
他走進來又走出去，“謝謝你能來”
We're glad that you came
”很高興你能來“（拒絕）
He didn't give up he just kept strong
但他一直很堅強，堅決不放棄
Knowin' deep down that it wouldn't be long
他心裡知道這種情況不會持續太久
He did his turn respect he earned
他仍做自己想做的，去贏得尊重
And eventually he would prove them wrong
最終他會證明，那些（瞧不起他的）人都是錯的
Far from an easy dream
但這絕不是一個簡單的夢想
On the right track but evening steam
就像走在了對的軌道上卻夜霧瀰漫看不到出路
The MC man cause of what he's seen
The MCman讓他看到了點曙光
Until he popped up on a
直到他突然間
TV screen
出現在電視上
That's when the whole world saw him shine
那時全世界都看到了他的光芒
Then the word quickly spread online
他的歌詞在網上瘋傳
And it actually blew everyone's mind guess who
實際上這些詞震撼了所有人，你猜怎么著
