Clout - My Life Had Stood [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1: Emily Dickinson]
My Life had stood a Loaded Gun in Corners till a Day
The Owner passed, identified and carried Me away-
And now We roam in Sovereign Hoods, And now We hunt the Po-
And every time I speak for Him, The Buildings straight reply-
And do I smile, such cordial light Upon the City glow;
It is as a Vesuvian face had let its pleasure flow
And when at Night, Our good Day done, I guard my master’s head-
Every time I speak for Him; better than to share a bed
To foe of His I’m deadly foe, None stir the second time
Though I than He may longer live; He longer must than I
For I have but the power to kill -without the power to die

[Hook]
Please don't shoot me down, cause I'm flying, I'm flying, I'm higher
Please don't shoot me down, I'm flying, I'm higher

[Verse 2: Clout]
I Gave You Power , I made them cower
Let you spray, and made you shower
Coward, I would ride ‘til I die for ours
Beat up and battered, I still supply the flowers
I watch them scatter When the Gun Draws
Stray Bullet, I respond when you pull it-
Got my Buddy, my Girlfriend and my Dogz:
He was g, she loved pac, they had sticky paws
Beasts, dogs, couldn’t hear’em over the applause
The wife and I, hit one-eight-five when we ride
Po pulled us over for a power-driven dui
Look into the eyes of these restless canines;
A dog ain't a Man's best friend, it's a Mac-10
This ain't’t a new idea, please don’t pretend
We all know how this story doesn’t end

[Hook]
Please don't shoot me down, cause I'm flying, I'm flying, I'm higher
Please don't shoot me down, I'm flying, I'm higher

[Verse 3: Lil Wayne]
Ay! Talked to my daddy:
"Pop, I did it to em, I'm a bastard,"
And I'm going to do it again like nigga backwards
These niggas backwards, but they behind us
Now watch me get high like times up
Naw, D, bring the drums back
And watch me hit them where there lungs at like that
I get respect cause if don't I'mma to take it
I see your boys hating and I see your girls naked
It sounds like a naked gun, switch clips with my thumb
And I pop another clip in and aim at his vision
Cause Wayne is his vision, cause Wayne is the mission
I'm aiming at a mirror...

[Hook]
Please don't shoot me down, cause I'm flying, I'm flying, (and I've done it before, please don't make me do it no more) I'm higher
Please don't shoot me down, (watch me soar) I'm flying, (where the fuck is my guitar, now roar) I'm higher
