Marco Polo - Heat [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Intro sample]
“Got heat for everybody, watch the microphone burn”

[Verse 1]
I set flames to the industry, I’m back to blaze
They say I’m too old school, I should act my age
And with me it’s no rules, no shackles and chains
And defeat, I won’t lose, no it’s not in my vein
Now who’s hot on the street, I’ll roast ‘em on any day
Fuck rappers, I don’t like most of ‘em anyway
They just pray I will fall and they all default
So jealous because labels are giving me different offers
Hate: I get it often — wait: the public eye’s one-sided
Kinda like the vision of Ricky Walters
The glitz and the glamour, to me it’s unattractive
That’s Whoopi Goldberg butt-naked on a mattress
Let’s get it cracking, me and Marco Polo
We keep our ears to the street like narcs and po-po
And one thing you don’t know
I been the shit since the ‘90s
Most of y’all just started checking in ‘04

[Hook]
Get low with it, get live with it
Can’t nobody get it like I get it
Get ill with it, get live with it
Can’t nobody do it like I did it

[Verse 2]
As soon as clowns get a name they start talking awkward
Like you gon’ walk your dogs but it’s all just fraudulent
School sparking arguments, I handle you dudes
The damage I do is permanent as Sharpie markers
Don’t disrespect me and try to breathe thinking that it’s cool
You dealing with an attitude, pissy in city pools
The main time I lose it
Is when you talk sideways like B. Brown on Behind the Music
I speak fluent and you love my slang
I’m one-take-ing while you stop and start more than a subway train
As far as the flow goes: no, nothing has changed
The production’s the same, we stay up in the game
On these buckets and change, we gorilla [?]
I’m done wasting time, y’all, somebody tell ‘em I’m through
I accomplished things most of y’all never gon’ do
I’m Supastition, that alone makes me better than you

[Hook]

[Outro]
“A lot of cats put down grass, man, like, uh, because they say things about, like, it makes you lose your memory. You know man? I just want to say that, ah, ah . . . I forgot where I was, man.”
“Alright, let’s just take it once more, OK?”
“Just a minute, let me think of where I . . . oh yeah! I know what I was going to say.”
“OK, here we go."
