Don Scott - 5 Train [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Verse 1:

Ok now first off let me take it back to them older times
Busting rhymes to my beat tape grinding 9-5
Bumping Tribe, heard them beat breaks and I came alive
Swear its just the vibe had me down to ride

But now I
Grown older and bolder the flow colder
Want the team up on my back
And the city on my shoulders uh

So when I'm gone yall could feel this shit from my day
It's from my book of Rhymes Written on that 5 Train

Chorus:

So when I'm gone yall could feel this shit from my day
It's from my book of Rhyme's Written on that 5 Train (Repeat 2x)

Verse 2:

Yo I swear I take that same damn train
For the same 9 stops
Look at the same damn graffiti on the same damn rooftops

Grinding like a man who could triple my years
Facing his fears
Its all blood sweat and them tears
I put my heart in these damn songs
And writing these damn wrongs
Just hoping yall could feel it through the art when we all on uh

So when I'm gone yall could feel this shit from my day
It's from my book of Rhyme's Written on that 5 Train

Chorus:

So when I'm gone yall could feel this shit from my day
It's from my book of Rhyme's Written on that 5 Train (Repeat 2x)

Verse 3:

So one time for all my real niggas
Yelling this is our year
Starting with a dollar and a dream showing no fear
Never looking back cuz the future's looking all clear
Seen a crooked smile on that man in the mirror

But see I used to bump my shit up on the system in the barber shop
Feeling like I made it when they heads would nod and my shit would knock
Spit a couple writtens but I'd tell them it was off the top
They'd G my head like boy don't stop you got the rock like whaddup...
