Blackalicious - Inspired By [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Track #8 on Imani Vol. 1 (2015)

[VERSE]

First crime I would commit
It was a misdemeanor
No loot on me so I had [?]
Step in the arena
Musically, I fell in a trance
I thought of X2C, but
He said "Is this as fresh to you
As this is fresh to me, bruh?"
Then album by album I [?] cds and did some refer
Consistency. Essential beats and rhymes. This shit was ether
Went from them battle rhymes to trying to make a dope LP
Thanks for the inspiration
Those departed, rest in peace

[Chorus]
Inspired by the ones who do it for the love of the game
Inspired by the fly moves you set it off in [?]
[?] inspired by the creative forces that [?] and saved the day

Inspired by the culture way before we all could get paid
Inspired by the greats who made the classic music we played
Inspired by the fans who came to see the music displayed
[?]

[VERSE]
I never knew
(I never knew)
A singer could
Be like a tool
For grounding spirits
To the truth
Every living
Ritual
A tribute to
A mystic mover
For the first time
I listened to it
I was so high
But not on thai
It was like I was speaking through it
On my job
Felt like it was a day off
From the Natural Mystic in the air that left the Sheriff lost
In the essence. No question
The timelessness lives on
Thank you for the inspiration
We forever jamming on, too!

[Chorus]
Inspired by the ones who do it for the love of the game
Inspired by the fly moves you set it off in [?]
[?] inspired by the creative forces that rained upon the Earth and saved the day

Inspired by the culture way before we all could get paid
Inspired by the greats who made the classic music we played
Inspired by the fans who came to see the music displayed
[?]

[VERSE]
It's Blacka singing
Thank you for the inspiration
It's because of all of y'all we doing more than just a day job
Yeah, this took awhile
We thank you for your patience
Every time that life is sucking, you remind and motivate us
That this is for a purpose
So after drinks are purchased
And all the bubbles fizz away the cream will always surface
Thank you for your inspiration
Until further indication
We keep murdering the fake
Until it's done and OVER!

We are inspired by you
We walk in your footsteps
We stand on your shoulders
Now we reach to levels that never been touched
[?]

[Chorus]
Inspired by the ones who do it for the love of the game
Inspired by [?]
[?] inspired by the creative forces that rained upon the Earth and saved the day

Inspired by the culture way before we all could get paid
Inspired by the greats who made the classic music we played
Inspired by the fans who came to see the music displayed [?]
