Campana & Nia Ilyssa - The Current [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Campana:
I've been working, I've been working, I've been smoking on that purple
I been running round in circles, trying to figure out my purpose
Trying to paint this picture perfect, every word I write in cursive
While I'm fighting off my curses, evil is overrunnin'

I see it, I think it's coming, I'm peaking I'm at the summit
"Where your ice, though?" ain't got none, must not keep it one hundred
If you ain't talking that money, you might as well not discuss it
These people petty for paper, the leading cause of corruption

Death is my second cousin, this is my second coming
I'm done diggin' my grave, trying to venture out to the ocean
Cause current is curry, I’m bound to eat it; I'm stirring
These tidals, I got the title, it's blurry, I got to hurry

Negativity rising, shadows on the horizon
All I'm spittin' is geysers, so buoyant; I'm a survivor
Poseidon the main supplier, ironic this shit is fire
I gotta trident to fight all these titans, I'm gettin' tired


Nia (Chorus):
Learned to hold my breath for the times
I searched for a reason to quit
I discovered the best things always come
After the hardest hit
Gasping for air i find a high
That takes me under
A confusion to you, a clear sky for me
It'll always make you wonder



Nia:
Where did I go, who did I find, what did I see?
You started to sleep, fell to my knees, you became so weak
You can't force a battle the waters will only consume you
I've been swimming with sharks forever, your blood is nothing new

It's nothing new
Your blood was so overdue


Campana:
Subconscious on a submarine, thinking this life ain't what it seems
Thinking no one can flow like me, get caught up in the mainstream
Dream, i had vividly since i was seventeen
Come clean, all that dirt had you could not compare to me

You can see, yessiree, hennessey; like I be drunk
Then I sunk in the deep blue sea
I’mma need an ancient ship, just to come and rescue me
You be talkin’ all that shit, I be focusing me

The lotus floating above us, the potion done got me weak
The motion spoke a devotion, no boat afloat; It’s important
The depth done got me awoken, the potent serves as a jacket
It’s coated over my throat, and I’m overdosing the most

While I’m drifting over the border Go and get the recorder
SOS messages I’m just trying to give em my order
Head done stayed under water yeah, nigga I've been soldier
Go and get the reporter someone tell em I’m stranded
My plans were not in accordance

Would you relay the message and tell them that there’s a shortage?
Just been touching my metals up, own me a couple forges
All these copy-catting-cookie-cutter-biters, be forging
Plagiarizing, now you wiser? Yeah, I doubt it
