EQ - The Great Escape [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
I know that you don't know what it means to me
I could never show you everything I think my dreams could be
I have moved into a solid apartment from broken homehood
I remember when I was hardly ever at home alone
Could you come with me, cause I never want to do this all alone

I would always cling to others, see it if you was my brother
Probably not if you another, but they got me through the struggle
To that light and through the tunnel
Though my mother probably couldn't tell you where my brother is

Probably couldn't either, but I'll always have some love for him
Father trying to train himself to be a single mother, shit
Be needless to say that my family was on some other shit
Dad just told me keep your head up, always rise above this shit

So that's what I did until I finally had enough of it
Knew my father knew he spent enough time trying to run from it
Hard to do it right when you never learn was loving is
So I don't say I got out that childhood, I come from it

[Sample hook]
Bad day, looking for a way
Home, looking for the great escape
Gets in his car and drives away
Far from all the things that we are

Bad day, looking for a way
Home, looking for the great escape
Gets in his car and drives away
Far from all the things that we are

[Verse 2]
Every time the future happens, you get some past to reflect on
Running in the firefight with a mask and vest on
Still be dodging bullets if it's the casket they bet on
If I fall, I know my dreams'll be the last thing I set on

I could've stopped - but I know because of passion I kept on
I could've not - but I see more in this rappin' than weapons
And following everyone else under the mass's impression
So I make sure I've got a message and attack with incentive

So I'm hoping when I give to the masses, they get it
Instead of taking for granted, they start asking the questions
'Steada accepting what they're fed to grab the masses attention
They told me hip hop was dead, watch the freshman class resurrect it

You would think I was a painter with how graphic my text is
Take an image, give it life - or leave it gasping and breathless
Know it's obvious that fully in this rap I'm invested
Whether I pay my respects and that shit gets scratched from the checklist

[Hook Sample]
Bad day, looking for a way
Home, looking for the great escape
Gets in his car and drives away
Far from all the things that we are

Bad day, looking for a way
Home, looking for the great escape
Gets in his car and drives away
Far from all the things that we are
