原歌詞
There's no sea left for me
And how the sky gets heavy
When you are underneath it!
Oh. I want to sail away from here.
And god. He came down down down down down down down down
And said (down down down down down down down down)
Nothing (down down down down down down down down)
He rolled up, asked him what he was sippin' on
He said lean, You want to hit it, dawg?
That's the same stuff
Weezy's sippin' huh?
And tons of other rappers that be spittin' hard
Yup yup five a bone
When he passed him that styrofoam the Easter pink, heard it in a rhyme before
Finally got to see what all the hype was on
And then he took a sip, sittin' in the Lincoln thinkin' he was pimpin' as he listen to the system
Little did he know that it was just as addictive as bass
Not the kind of hit from the kick drum
Hot box, let the bass bump
Take it to the face, gulp
Months later the use went up
Every blunt was accompanied by the pink stuff
But Goddamn he loved that feelin'
Purple rain coated in the throat
Just so healin'
Medicine alleviate the sickness
Liquid affix and it comes with a cost
Wake up, cold sweat, scratchin', itchin'
Trying to escape the skin that barely fit him
Gone, get another bottle just to get a couple swallows
Headed towards the bottom couldn't get off it
Didn't even think he had a problem
Though he couldn't sleep without gettin' nauseous
Room spinnin', thinkin' he might've sipped just a little bit too much of that cough syrup
His eyelids closed shut
Sat back in the chair clutchin' that cup
Girlfriend came and a couple hours later said his name shook him but he never got up
He never got up, he never got up
We live on the cusp of death thinkin' that it won't be us
It won't be us, it won't be us, it won't be us
Nah, it won't be us
Oh girl, this boat is sinking
There's no sea left for me
And how the sky gets heavy
When you are underneath it!
Oh. I want to sail away from here.
And god. He came down down down down down down down down
And said (down down down down down down down down)
Nothing (down down down down down down down down)
Now he just wanted to act like them
He just wanted to rap like him
Us as rappers underestimate the power and the effects that we have on these kids
Blunt passed, ash in a tin, pack being pushed, harassed by the feds
The fact of it is most people that rap like this talkin' about some shit they haven't lived
Surprise, you know the drill
Trapped in a box, declined record sales
Follow the formula violence, drugs, and, sex sells
So we try to sound like someone else
This is not Californication
There's no way to glorify this pavement
Syrup, Percocet, and an eighth a day will leave you broke, depressed, and emotionally vacant
Despite how Lil Wayne lives
It's not conducive to being creative
And I know 'cause he's my favorite
And I know 'cause I was off that same mix
Rationalize the shit that I'd try after I listen to dedication
But he's an alien, I'd sip that shit, pass out or play Playstation
Months later I'm in the same place
No music made, feeling like a failure
And trust me it's not dope to be 25 and move back to your parent's basement
I've seen my people's dreams die
I've seen what they can be denied
And "weeds not a drug" - that's denial
Groundhog Day life repeat each time
I've seen Oxycontin take three lives
I grew up with them, we used to chief dimes
I've seen cocaine bring out the demons inside
Cheatin' and lyin'
Friendship cease, no peace in the mind
Stealin' and takin' anything to fix the pieces inside
Broken, hopeless, headed nowhere
Only motivation for what the dealer's supplying
That rush, that drug, that dope
Those pills, that crumb, that roach
Thinkin' I would never do that, not that drug
And growing up nobody ever does
Until you're stuck, lookin' in the mirror like I can't believe what I've become
Swore I was goin' to be someone
And growing up everyone always does
We sell our dreams and our potential
To escape through that buzz
Just keep me up, keep me up
Hollywood here we come
Oh girl this boat is sinking
There's no sea left for me
And how the sky gets heavy
When you are underneath it
Oh, I want to sail away from here
And god. He came down down down down down down down
And said
Nothing
中文歌詞
喔,姑娘,這艘船正在下沉
我的海已蕩然無存
當你已在天空下方,它還能如何變得沉重
我只想起航離開這裡
上帝,他慢慢走下來
什麼都沒有說
他的朋友搖搖晃晃的走進來,讓他猜他剛剛喝了什麼
“Lean”他說,“老兄,你想試試嗎?”
這就是weezy喝的那種東西,哈
其他說唱歌手也對它趨之若鶩
沒錯,五美元一杯
他遞過來那個塑膠杯
那粉色,在歌里聽說過
終於能一見這東西了
他坐在林肯車中喝了一小口
他喝著那東西聽著車裡的音樂,覺得他酷極了
過了一會他發覺這玩意和安非他命一樣上癮
跟那些說唱專輯裡說的並不一樣
煙霧填滿了這輛車
大口的向口裡灌著
幾個月後身體已是殘燈之火
就連抽大麻時也要喝著lean
天哪,他真愛那種感覺
喉嚨都被染成了紫色
只為了讓他能舒服點
喝更多的lean才能減輕那噁心感
飲鴆止渴
頻醒,冷汗,抓痕,瘙癢
他想脫離這副皮囊
想搞到一瓶只為了多喝幾口
像口渴的人抓著那瓶子不放
他甚至沒有覺得這樣有什麼不對勁
直到每次入睡時都會伴隨著嘔吐
房間不停地旋轉
才發覺是不是喝的有一點太多
他的眼皮不停地打架
他攥著那杯子坐回了椅子上
女朋友幾小時後回來叫著他的名字,搖晃著他,但他再也不會醒來
再也不能醒來,再也不能醒來
我們活在死亡的邊緣,認為死的永遠不會是自己
不會是我們,不會是我們,不會是我們
不,不會是我們
喔,姑娘,這艘船正在下沉
我的海已蕩然無
存當你已在天空下方,它還能如何變得沉重
我只想起航離開這裡
上帝,他慢慢走下來
什麼也沒說
他只是想像他們一樣,他只是想像他一樣說唱
我們做為說唱歌手忽視了我們的作為對孩子們的負面影響
丟掉抽完的大麻
把灰彈進罐子裡,倒賣,被條子反覆的來訪
事實上,大部分那些唱著這種生活的歌手說的都是他們從來沒有經歷過的假話
詫異嗎,你知道為什麼
受制於人,只為了提高唱片銷量而按照那套路包裝
暴力,毒品,賣淫
所以我們努力讓我們聽起來像是另一個人
這不是加州夢想
沒有辦法美化這痛苦的經歷
這些毒品只會毀了你,讓你沮喪空虛
不管Lil Wayne怎么活
那些毒品不能讓你更富有靈感
我知道,因為他是我最喜歡的說唱歌手
我知道,因為我也試過那東西
聽過Lil Wayne的Defication後,我給自己找了一個藉口去試那東西
但他是個他口中的外星人,我喝了那東西後只能無精打采的從我的Playstation旁走開
幾個月後我也被毒品毀了
沒有錄製任何歌曲,像個失敗者一樣
還有,相信我,活到25歲再搬回你父母家的地下室這他媽一點都不酷
因為毒品,我見到我身邊的人的夢想破碎
因為毒品,我見到他們被否決
“大麻不是毒品”,這是假話
重複著這種糜爛的生活
我見過奧施康定帶走了三個人的生命
我跟那三個人一起長大,我們曾在一起抽大麻
我見過古柯鹼在人身上釋放出裡面的惡魔
欺詐和謊言
友誼結束,心情不再平靜
偷竊和順手牽羊來填補空虛
崩潰,絕望,不知道該向著何方
唯一想要的就是賣主手上賣的東西
那High的感覺爽翻了
那奧施康定,那古柯鹼,那大麻
誰又何嘗相信自己會做那種事,不會碰那種毒品
沒人知道長大後會變成那樣子
直到你像我一樣佇立在鏡子前
不敢相信自己居然成為了這樣的人
沒個人小時候都曾發誓要成為個人物
我們通過毒品的刺激來放棄夢想,逃避現實
請讓我繼續前進,繼續前進
好萊塢我們就要來了
