Apollo Brown & Guilty Simpson - Neverending Story [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Intro]
[Sample]
And I know what time it is
[Guilty Simpson]
Yo, this joint right here
Is dedicated to wisdom, you know what I'm sayin'?
A lot of these young cats think they know it all
I doubt that
Yeah, check it, yo

[Verse 1: Guilty Simpson]
I've been around for a minute
It's like I saw it all and now I finally get it
Wisdom achieved and doing what I believe
And I plan to do more before I'm finished
One goal met, another set, it's never enough
And when all's done, I'm saddling up
I'm living the life, out of mind, out of sight
Out of spite, naysayers try messin' it up
But I'm a man, free fallin' from the heights of unreachable plans
But I won cause I took a chance
So when I land, I'll never have to hold regret
And I earn respect for who I am
Now that's real, realer than a rap deal
I saw many cats lose it, all for this music
Yeah I'm thinkin, "How would that feel?"
God gave you this gift so use it, come on

[Hook]
[Sample]
And I know what time it is
[Guilty Simpson]
You can't tell me nothing, now listen up
I'm tryin' to tell you something, come on
[Sample]
And I know what time it is
[Guilty Simpson]
You can't tell me nothing, now listen up, listen up

[Verse 2: Guilty Simpson]
Yo, I had a need for more, so my ceiling became my floor
For every one shut, I noticed a door
Opportunity let me in when the rain poured, I'm thankful
Yeah, I used to be hateful and ungrateful
But now I'm doing tours, I had to let go
And accept the fate chosen, enjoy the moment
And what's in store, I'm still here
Many predicted I'd be killed here
Shot up hood, I knock on wood
Because the strongest brother I know is in a wheel chair
And some days are not so good
But a day above ground is never the worst
So a new one begins with thankin' Him first
The never ending story told by a unique soul
What real life say, in a verse, come on

[Hook]

Yeah, the never ending story
Not totally written yet
Still determining my path
Peace to Apollo Brown
