- J. Cole January 28th 歌詞
- J. Cole
- The real is back, the ville is back
回到思念已久的故鄉，回歸真實的自己
Flow bananas here, peel this back
回歸內涵豐富的說唱
And what you'll find is, your highness
你們將會發現，你們的王者
Can paint a picture that is vivid enough to cure blindness
他創作出清晰的畫作，足以給盲人帶來光明
Carolina's finest
我就是北卡最棒的人
You knew that already
你們早就了解了
And turned to the greatest, I proved that already
誰是最偉大的rapper，我早已證明過了
And if you would like, I do it twice
如果你們喜歡，我會再示範一次
I just sharpen my blade for a minute but came lost in my ways
雖也曾在旅途中迷失，但我會重新振作起來
This for my niggas that was tossin' the graves
這首歌獻給那些在天國安息的朋友們
Every so often I fade deep in my thoughts and get lost in the days
平日里你們常令我陷入沉思
We used to play before your coffin was made
入土之前，我們曾是多麼鐵的兄弟啊
Just got the call nigga got caught with a straight
剛接了個電話，又一個哥們誤入歧途進了局子
Hope he's okay
希望他一切安好
Just got paid what Cochran got paid to free OJ
剛得到一筆巨款，足以使OJ免受牢獄之災
Just to share my life on the stage in front of strangers
舞台上我把一切都分享給陌生人
Who know a nigga fall to well, and that's the danger
他們都知道的太多了，而這會帶來危險
Know me better than I know myself
他們竟然比我還更了解我自己
I rip a page out my notebook in anger
我生氣地從本子上撕掉一張紙
And let these thoughts linger singing
讓這些思緒徘徊在腦海裡
[Hook]
別被他們迷惑住
Don't give 'em too much you
別被他們所掌控
Don't let 'em take control
記住最重要的一件事
This one thing you do
別讓他們玷污你的靈魂
Don't let 'em taint your soul
如果你相信上帝
If you believe in God
牢記這條真理
One things for sure
若不志存高遠
If you ain't aim too high
便會碌碌終生
Then you aim too low
一條黑色的生命到底價值幾何
[Verse 2]
仔細查看了價簽，竟然如此低廉
What's the price for a black man life?
打開電視，卻看不到一個黑人英雄
I check the toe tag, not one zero in sight
除了球星和那些故弄玄虛的rapper
I turn the TV on, not one hero in sight
望著窗外，這城市今夜燈火輝煌,繁華似錦
Unless he dribble or he fiddle with mics
也許沒有人會來闖入我的小圈子
Look out the window cause tonight the city lit up with lights, cameras and action
我把大家團結起來，因為我們就像親兄弟一樣
May no man alive come through and damage my faction
我們就是一家人
I brought you nigga with me cause I love you like my brothers
我想我們需要一個行動計劃
And your mothers' like my mother
當一個整體得到的越多，就越容易產生內部矛盾
Think we need a plan of action
這並不可怕，只要每個人都把私心放到一邊
The bigger we get the more likely egos collide
不能讓這些雜念將我們變成敵人
It's just physics, please let's put our egos aside
我希望我們能銘記
You my niggas, and should our worst tenancies turn us into enemies
這些同甘共苦的日子
I hope that we remember these
就像我和Jay-Z在一起的時候
Nights fulla Hennessey
互相尊重，總有一天我們會站在同一戰線
When Hov aroun we switch up to that D'usse
因為我們都有過同樣的經歷
Gotta show respect, one day we tryna stay where you stay
我指的不是貧民窟的生活
Cause we from where you from
而是那充斥著我們大腦的，那些愚昧無知的思想
I'm not talkin' bout the slums
它讓黑人兄弟們互相殘殺
I'm talkin' 'bout that mind state that keep a black nigga dumb
它讓大家聽那些裝逼的rapper胡說八道
Keep a black nigga dyin' by a black nigga gun
我就這麼說了
And keep on listening to the frontin' ass rap niggas son
我也是紐約最屌的
Yeah I said son
在紐約經歷了11個春夏秋冬，早已習慣這氛圍
This is New York's finest
倘若紐約的階梯擺在我面前
For 11 winters straight I took on New York's climate
我將登上頂峰，而且讓每一階都高不可攀
Like show me New York's ladder
別再胡思亂想，你們永遠也達不到這高度
I climb it and set the bar so high that you gotta get Obama to force the air force to find it
這遊戲我早已玩轉自如，無論何時何地
Never mind it, you'll never reach that
在每一首歌裡都是如此
Cole is the hypnotist, control the game whenever he snap
別被他們迷惑住
That's every track
別被他們所掌控
Don't give 'em too much you
記住最重要的一件事
Don't let 'em take control
別讓他們玷污你的靈魂
This one thing you do
如果你相信上帝
Don't let 'em taint your soul
牢記這條真理
If you believe in God
若不志存高遠
One things for sure
便會碌碌終生
If you ain't aim too high
我從不沾毒品，也不用它污染我的詞句
Then you aim too low
我從不說假話，人們都傳唱著我的名言
I ain't serve no pies, I ain't slang no dope
我從不鬧著玩，也決不當個沒用的草包
I ain't bring no lies, niggas sang my quotes
當我寫下這首歌時，宛如手握麥克風的上帝Rakim
I ain't play no games, boy I ain't no joke
你們或許能成為偉大的MC，就像BigL和BigDaddyKane
Like the great Rakim, when I make my notes
又或許你會像Slick Rick一樣戴著一堆鍊子
You niggas might be L or you might be Kane
你或許也能成為Drake又或是Kendrick Lamar
Or you might be Slick Rick with 19 chains
但是回去查查你的生日，你並不是神仙
Or you might be Drizzy Drake or Kendrick Lamar
你並不是最偉大的
But check your birth date nigga, you ain't the God
請牢記，J.Cole才是上帝！
Nah you ain't the God
一月二十八
Nigga Cole the God
January 28th
