K.C of Trealthy Sounds - One Time [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

(Verse 1) Johnny Alpha

This the life of an up and coming MC/
Who had only his hunger for knowledge and dreams/
And a product of the streets who avoided gangs, drugs, and illegal grinding/
Stuck to himself, his books, and gift with rhyming/
True story listen close, this my autobiography/
And honestly I see no one in line who's as hot as me/
Undoubtedly I know I'll make a living off of spitting/
So ain't no turning back, I made too many promises and counted all my blessings/
Rewind to '95, 4 years old/
Dad was the only one working, mom did her best to keep food cooking on the stove/
'97 came, my brother is born/
So it's time to move out into an even bigger shithole/
We had a different place but one thing that didn't change/
Was that same stained shirt used as a fuckin pillow case/
My tear stained face couldn't take or handle anymore/
So all those years of stress I just press fast forward/
The year's 2010, all the things I've seen and places I've been/
Have helped me shape myself and also made me who I am/
Put my emotions into writing and discovered a hidden talent/
The gift to paint pictures with words and make the world my canvas/
Add another year, now I feel like I know what I was meant for/
To return the same gratitude to my loved ones and all my mentors/
So all I need is one mic/
I'm on my way to do right, but that little boy who put up a fight and cried at night, my childhood self, you elevated my life to new heights/

(Chorus) K.C Of Trealthy Sounds

This for my city yeah this ones for yall
This for my town man this ones for yall

This for my homiez yeah this ones for yall
For any real muthaphuckka this ones for yall

(Verse 1)

This dedicated, to that rapper comin up/
Never thought that same rapper
Would be one of us/
Becarefull with your people
Always have your guns up/
I put my heart inside this music
Til I see that sun is up/
6 in the morning
I got no time to think/
I just do what I feel
And im trying not to jinx/
Blowin L's to the sky
Mixed wit blues n pinks/
My shit will let u know
Real music is not extinct uhh/
And my friends says I changed a lot,/
What ever life that I'm leading
I hope it pays a lot/
I'm tryna see thru this struggle
But yo my visions cloudy/
Trying not to make it rain
But if I'm gone I'm outty/
I'm proud of my accomplishments/
But what was it that always
Kept my mind on the cents /
Had it planned been tryna make it since/
One thing that I learned man
Don't ever loose patients/
I told myself don't ever
Loose yo sense of humor/
I recall being broke
Rockin them same pair of pumas/
If this money something like cancer
Think my brain caught a tumor/
Reaching for a taste of success
Hope its coming sooner/
I don't trust, my own peoples
Couple 100 in my pocket/
I'm livin in the fast lane
Without no way to stop to stop it/
Voicemails full of stress
Because the bank want my deposit/
No rewind buttons
Just fast forward with no pauses/
This for that kid
Who tried to blow his own brains out/
Im being real cuz I was
Livin with that same doubt/
Its like they doubted me
Before I even came out/
Now I'm bustin tryna
Blow this whole game out/
Just hear me out because
I got something to prove/
This for that kid who straight broke
With nothing to loose/
This for that mother who lost her child
Before they could move/
And if u feel what the fuck I'm sayin
Then this one is for u/

(Chorus) K.C Of Trealthy Sounds

This for my city yeah this ones for yall
This for my town man this ones for yall

This for my homiez yeah this ones for yall
For any real muthaphuckka this ones for yall
