Write Your Name第一段描寫了一位老無所依的老人,孩子們留下他搬去了芝加哥從此失去聯繫,妻子已去世。Probably never see his name in the headlines But if I had a plane, I'd put it in the sky. 第二段講述了一個年僅16的單親母親被男友拋棄,獨自撫養孩子。第三段獻給所有默默無名的人們,也許你們默默無聞一輩子,也許你們非常艱苦,但你們都是真正耀眼的stars,你們,有了你們,這個世界才得以運轉。我要把你的名字寫在天際,帶走星星,因為你照亮了星空。和你在一起,就像和月亮一樣高,所以寫下你的名字,讓全世界都看到。
歌詞
[Hook : Mona Moua]
I’ll write your name
Across the sky
And take away the stars
Cuz you light up the night
You as high as the moon
When you’re here with me
That’s why I’m gonna write your name
For the world to see
[1st Verse : Yelawolf]
Another old name on the porch with the bottle
Wind blows and the old rocking chair wobbles
He’s just the waving, everybody’s welcome
All he can say about the youth is lord help ‘em
Got a couple grand babies, but they never call though
?? left ?? in the south and they moved to Chicago
Wifes in heaven and, hes saying ever since
Vietnam life’s been hard as a veteran
Simple life, ?? shifting ?? six pack, yeah ice cold
Across the Georgia line for a ticket for the lotto
Probably never see his name in the headlines
But if I had a plane, I’d put it in the sky
Alabama
[Hook : Mona Moua]
I’ll write your name
Across the sky
And take away the stars
Cuz you light up the night
You as high as the moon
When you’re here with me
That’s why I’m gonna write your name
For the world to see
[2nd Verse : Yelawolf]
She’s in love, yeah, Friends call her crazy
Met him at a party, they started dating
Daddy’s little angel, Momma’s little lady
Only 16 now Brenda’s got a baby
She can’t afford to, drop out of high school
Jimmy’s not a man and he can’t provide you
He doesn’t want to, but you keep it anyhow
Nine months down the road, what you gonna do now
Go to the food stamp, ??
You can find a job, it’ll help you get by
And you made it when you didn’t know how
Now that’s a real star put her name in the clouds
Alabama
[Hook : Mona Moua]
I’ll write your name
Across the sky
And take away the stars
Cuz you light up the night
You as high as the moon
When you’re here with me
That’s why I’m gonna write your name
For the world to see
[3rd Verse : Yelawolf]
You may never be on television or be the one
Your boss at work loves giving you employee of the month
May never be the first dream on a champion team
You may be the star the world just hasn’t seen
But that don’t make you any less of a star to God
Being rich is only realizing it’s all a facade
You’re richer than you think in that old small town
Cos people like you make the world go round
Alabama
[Hook : Mona Moua]
I’ll write your name
Across the sky
And take away the stars
Cuz you light up the night
You as high as the moon
When you’re here with me
That’s why I’m gonna write your name
For the world to see
