Furred T - Down Inside [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

{'Nina Simone ~ Misunderstood' sample}

Some people question my drive, 'What makes me tick?'
Oughta might ya own business y'all make me sick
There's no gimmick, it's all real
I've sacrificed a lot of shit and still don't got a fucking deal, yeah
That's where I'm at and how I'm living
Get rich or die trying yeah that's my decision

{~}

Try not to stress the bad and focus on the good
If I saw some more positive then I probably would
But right now I don't, so I probably won't
Cause in this life some shit just never changes
Do what I can but I still remain nameless

Cause all the people around me think I'm doing fine
But deep down inside I'm losing my damn mind [x2]

Both my parents work full-time so we can live life
I'm trying to make enough so we can finally live right
I just want to give my Mom what she deserves
But I know nothings ever promised on this earth

That's why I go out give it everything I got
You'll see my lifeline go flat before I ever stop
I put so much pressure on myself
That my restlessness, is my nemesis
But I'm not 'Black on Both Sides', that's just the Mos Def vibes

See people like that give me motivation
Bless us with this music to escape our situation


Cause all the people around me think I'm doing fine
But deep down inside I'm losing my damn mind [x4]
