让你失望--J.Cole
Let （0,171）Nas Down - J Cole
自由还是禁锢往往只在一念之间
Freedom or jail, clips inserted
一个宝贝的新生的同时会有人因为被谋杀从此消失不见
A baby's bein' born same time a man is murdered
“周而复始”这个主题在说唱里屡见不鲜
The beginning and end, so far as rap goes
最自然的流露我得以坐稳一线
only It's natural, I explain my plateau
最重要的还是能让“我”之定义最佳上演
And also what defines my name
耶，你(Nas)一直是我的偶像
希望你永远世界最强
Yeah, long live the idols
都说2Pac和耶稣最像
may they never be your rivals
那么会有谁懂得你撰写圣经时的忧伤
Pac was like Jesus
即将登场
Nas wrote the Bible
是一篇衡量罪恶与荣耀的文章
Now what you're 'bout to
对了我的导师名为"No I.D."，故事送上
hear's a tale of glory and sin
记得很小的时候就开始听你的歌然后把你的歌词抄在墙上
No I.D. my mentor now let the story begin
我的伙伴们都笑我一个文字游戏便放在心上
他们不知道那是我童年所能看到最美好的景象
I used to print out Nas raps and tape 'em up on my wall
懂事后便有了成为歌手的梦想
My niggas thought they was words
时常望着墙上发誓将来一定要像你一样
but it was pictures I saw
还记得你发行"Stillmatic“那一张
And since I wanted to draw
掀开了说唱历史的伟大一章
I used to read 'em in awe
岁月如梭谁曾想
Then he dropped Stillmatic
若干年后你会出现在我的巡演现场
rocked the cleanest Velour
那时的我事业刚刚开始蒸蒸日上
Fast forward, who thought
家里成为了阿迪达斯的殿堂
that I would meet him on tour?
表演结束后我激动地紧紧握住你的手
I'm earnin' stripes now nigga
始终不敢相信一直不肯松手
got Adidas galore
你却笑着说你成为我的粉丝已经很久
我的天呐感觉我的魂魄在四处游走
Backstage I shook his hand
之后有段时间一直在为首专发愁
let him know that he's the man
这种困境前所未有
When he said he was a fan
Jay-Z也在不停地催促我准备好了没有
it was to hard to understand
他说他的电台可以让我大展身手
No time to soak up the moment though
数月后我成功发行了我的首张专辑
cause I was in a jam
心里却像九局下半时的焦急
Hov askin' where's the record
似乎就是德里克.杰特完成一次本垒打之前的压力
that the radio could play
但好在我顺利完成了职业生涯最重要的一击
And I was strikin' out for months
然而我并未想到
9th inning feeling fear
也根本不会料到
Jeter under pressure
迪昂给我打了电话我才知道
made the biggest hit of my career
说来悲伤但是从此我不会在骄傲
But at first, that wasn't clear
迪昂告诉我你听了我的主打歌"Work Out"
niggas had no idea
你很不喜欢然后骂这首歌是傻屌
Dion called me when it dropped
还说没想到我怎么会制作的这么傻屌
sounded sad but sincere
我不敢相信我会让你失望
Told me Nas heard
我去，感觉瞬间我的心压在了胃之上
your single and he hate that shit
还是不敢相信我会让你失望
Said you the one, yo why you make that shit?
电话这头我早已火冒三丈
I can't believe I let Nas down
愤怒的我甚至带着哭腔，我真他妈的烂泥扶不上墙
耶，你(Nas)一直是我的偶像
Damn, my heart sunk to my stomach
希望你永远世界最强
I can't believe I let Nas down
都说2Pac和耶稣最像
那么会有谁懂得你撰写圣经时的忧伤
I got defensive on the phone
即将登场
resentment was in my tone, fuck it
是一篇衡量罪恶与荣耀的文章
对了我的导师名为"No I.D."，故事送上
Yeah, long live the idols
思绪平定后我想了好多
may they never be your rivals
也许你说的是对的是我的错
Pac was like Jesus
我猜你一定是想到了”You Owe Me"那次创作
Nas wrote the Bible
因为那是你为数不多的失败之作
Now what you're 'bout to
所以即便“Work Out"首周打榜不错
hear's a tale of glory and sin
你却不屑地说
No I.D. my mentor now let the story begin
这样的歌真心令人作呕
I couldn't help but think
其实一开始我也很不爽
that maybe I had made a mistake
脑子里一直恶补着和自己的偶像beef一场会怎样
I mean, you made "You Owe Me" dog
那么我的第一句话是这样
I thought that you could relate
你当年甚至都没打榜
But while I shot up the charts
你这样说我是想怎样
you mean tellin' me
再来说说你的心伤
That I was not up to par
Jay-Z一直把你的专辑视如臭翔
when I followed my heart
你也晓得为什么会这样
Granted, my heart was tainted by my mind
可是一想到如今的音乐市场我便不再胡思乱想
I kept on sayin'
这些唱片公司心里只有销量
Where's the hits?
他们迷失了方向
You ain't got none
他们就只会打榜
You know Jay would never
我呢一心顾着表演
put your album out without none
却忽视了歌迷们正在随着他们在改变
And dog, you know how come
现在我才发现
Labels are archaic
我们的音乐已经很难回到从前
formulaic with their outcomes
想要改变？
They don't know
那就他妈的撕掉这些虚伪的标签
they just study the charts
还有尽量少去综艺节目去表演
Me, I study the shows
你要记住喜欢去那里的人都是二线
the fans, study their hearts
所以真相在慢慢浮现
I had a feelin' I was killin'
你说的话全部得到了实现
and this music we were spillin' out
可是他们依旧执迷不悟我任重道远
Would change lives forever
但愿他们不要丧心病狂
fuck the label, put it out
古奇总是要我成为嘻哈之王
Friday Night Lights blew
修改嘻哈法则可是如今半路上
that was classic number 2
我却让你失望，只能记在自己头上
Now it seemed as if
因为我真的无比羞愧会让你失望
the Nas comparisons was comin' true
这也许是冥冥之中，后悔永远别想
Still no release date from the label
无比的懊恼，我真他妈的烂泥扶不上墙
are they insane?
耶，你(Nas)一直是我的偶像
Gooch told me play the game
希望你永远世界最强
to change the game but on the way
都说2Pac和耶稣最像
I let Nas down, I got noone to blame
那么会有谁懂得你撰写圣经时的忧伤
I'm ashamed I let Nas down
即将登场
是一篇衡量罪恶与荣耀的文章
But this is God's plan
对了我的导师名为"No I.D."，故事送上
you could never understand, fuck it
现在我有一个很棒的想法要给你们说
Yeah, long live the idols
如果我能让这些拜金狗
may they never be your rivals
来听听哥的独家讲座
Pac was like Jesus
哥会开门见山从不啰嗦
Nas wrote the Bible
最重要的诚实待人，哥会教他们如何做
Now what you're 'bout to
没有最多只有更多
hear's a tale of glory and sin
你们都不想成为路人皆知的司马昭吧？
No I.D. my mentor now let the story begin
那就争取成为下一个Kendrick.Lamar
I always believed in the bigger picture
哪怕我是上帝之子，犯了罪也难逃被绳之以法
If I could get them niggas
我毫无办法
to listen outside my core
和你们这些虚伪的家伙共事还不如让我跳楼自杀
then I can open a door
过去这十几年不是哥瞎BB
Reintroduce 'em to honesty
一旦我有半点虚伪我保证此歌是我的绝笔
show 'em that they need more
毕竟我是发自内心里
The difference between
为了我的发展做出了牺牲对不起了我的好兄弟OG
the pretenders and the Kendrick Lamars
但是此刻我有一个超好的动机
And so, I took the fall like the son of the Lord
我晓得做回原来的自己还来得及
On the cross
要做到心中将所有爱我的人深深牢记
dyin' for that fake shit you niggas bought
不能高高在上要学会平坐平起
For the past decade
这些真的不太容易
if I should pass please let this be my last essay
就像游戏里我正在和恶魔练级
Therefore I write from the heart
母亲请别为我哭泣
Apologies to OG's for sacrificin' my art
自己选择的人生就要硬闯到底
But I'm here for a greater purpose
漫漫长路不能大意
I knew right from the start
更不能迷失了自己
I'm just a man of the people
有些人到现在还在质疑
not above but equal
说什么嘻哈已死，真他妈的歇斯底里
And for the greater good
现在我就下地狱去救出嘻哈，看好了你
I walk amongst the evil
以后再敢出言不逊，小心哥废了你
Don't cry mama
让你失望
this the life I choose myself
电话依旧在手上
Just pray along the way
如同一条哑巴狗添了新伤
that I don't lose myself
让你失望
This is for the nigga
耶，想开点也许经过这一仗
that said that hip-hop was dead
我再也不会失去方向，我不再他妈的烂泥扶不上墙
I went to Hell to resurrect it
耶，你(Nas)一直是我的偶像
how could you fail to respect it?
希望你永远世界最强
Lettin' Nas down
都说2Pac和耶稣最像
那么会有谁懂得你撰写圣经时的忧伤
I got the phone call
即将登场
quietly I mourned dog
是一篇衡量罪恶与荣耀的文章
I let Nas down
对了我的导师名为"No I.D."，故事送上
Yeah, and on this flight
may I never lose sight, fuck it
Yeah, long live the idols
may they never be your rivals
Pac was like Jesus
Nas wrote the Bible
Now what you're 'bout to
hear's a tale of glory and sin
No I.D. my mentor now let the story begin
