Humor - The Rise [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Intro]
Sometimes, you've just got to say
What you've got to say
Yeah, listen

[Verse 1]
Papes is my turn on, raised in a place you never heard of
Straight off the bat, your boy adapted, I'm a learner
Born as an Englishman, bloodline Nigerian
BNP would tell you I'm an immigrant
I go to Naij, they treat a nigga different
I'd tell a lie if I said niggas never seen the prison much
I'd tell a lie if I said that the riots were legitimate
Looting n shooting, drug pushing n rushing the yout dem
But what the fuck you expect? it ain't colour its class
They fucked up their future cause they ain't learned from their past
You tell your kids that they're different so now they find an excuse
Get your head in the game, you either win or you lose
It ain't all hunky dory if you ain't shit when you 40
These niggas spilling their guts all in pursuit of the glory
Get the urge to be stunting when you ain't come up with nothing
But niggas got it back to front cos they be broke and they're flossing I tell em

[Hook]
Family comes first
Money comes second
Money equals power
And that power is a weapon
A bitch is just a bitch they never come before a bredrin
But a woman is a woman and to find one is a blessing
Do what you enjoy
Fuck a haters voice
Tell a hater he can slap himself 10 times
Cause they love to see you down but hate to see you on the rise
Said they love to see you down but hate to see you on the rise

[Verse 2]
I've got a plan A, and a plan B
I remember when I thought I'd never bang g
Specs on getting As in the test
But all a little nigga wanted was some A double S
Took the specs off and got a trim, couldn't see a fucking thing
Started getting chicks though, then I got contacts
Now I'm getting contacts, tryna get a contract
Spraying like a contract killer on a dumb track
All this talk of pushing crack, me I'm tryna push the bar
Skinny nigga in the gym, I was tryna push the bar
Push it far, all these niggas around the city screaming fuck the law
What you looking for? Better handle yours before you're busting nuts in broads
Fuck the system that they try to set you in
Tryna get these kids around here to settle for shit
Then they have a kid what can they offer it
That's a cycle full of suffering and I won't
Settle for that, running round in circles
All that hate you best ignore that
Tell a fuck boy stop it, work equals profit you know that
Success ain't a second thought, I've thought about it all and I know
The media's gonna try n paint us all the same way, the same way
And I know, no matter where I'm at I'll always say the same thing
The same thing yeah

[Hook]
