Brad The Abstract - Don't Sleep (part 1) [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Brad The Abstract]

We see different people and places
Different places and crowds
Sequels of stories are horrid
We judge each other’s gloomy clouds
Like we laugh at the pain that we chase
As if we barely have any painful days
Or we’re guaranteed to see the pearly gates
Me I’m set to let the rest all fade away
‘Cause there’s no way that we’ll remain
No chance we’ll sustain
We keep wasting away
Playing these same damn dames

So extend existentialism it tends to bend at the mind
I’m spent at the expense of wisely corporate lies
With endless attempts they disguise our demise
I sent complex messages which tend to slip right by
I’m left with this pen, but got some tree
Break it down, pick up the vibes
Play it thru, hit rewind
Become aligned with the refined
My atmosphere is so divine, vernacular beyond sublime
You need an immaculate microscope just to read between the lines
Said I’m spent at the expense of wisely corporate lies
With endless attempts to disguise our demise
We’re blind, we’re blind
Need an immaculate microscope just to read between the lines
Different recordings and stories
Sequels are aroused
Admire the black sheep
Please don’t sleep on him now
“

We must come together with some common sense
Common knowledge and some confidence
But it seems to be that living thru TV leads to a lack of all of this
So fuck that shit, I’m tryna build some rocket ships
Yea, yea
Let’s dip the fuck out on my fucking rocket ships, yea
Please don’t sleep on him now
Please don’t sleep on him now

[Charlie Chaplin]

“Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world
Millions of despairing men, women, and little children
Victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison innocent people
To those who can hear me, I say, do not despair
The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed
The bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress
The hate of men will pass, and dictators die
And the power they took from the people will return to the people
And so long as men die, liberty will never perish

The Kingdom of God is within man
Not one man nor a group of men, but in all men! In you!
You, the people have the power, the power to create machines
The power to create happiness!
You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful
To make this life a wonderful adventure
Then, in the name of democracy, let us use that power, let us all unite
Let us fight for a new world, a decent world that will give men a chance to work
That will give youth a future and old age a security
By the promise of these things, brutes have risen to power. But they lie!
They do not fulfill that promise. They never will!
Dictators free themselves but they enslave the people!
Now let us fight to fulfill that promise!
Let us fight to free the world”
