Melvin Burch - Just Be [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse]
I never shoulda rappin'; I picked the wrong career
This is a flex zone, I clearly don't belong in here
Lanky domesticated Mankey, should be stocking bookshelves or grocery stores for strength training; brainiac... with a stupid long dumb streak
The basics would jump me
Bullies ignored me, geeks loved me
Meanwhile, I hoped the labels wouldn't touch me
Different by default, not effort, multi-dimensional treasure trapped in an old shoe box
I knew not how to bring out the pharaoh in my chain, so I let it hang
Puzzled, behind a muzzle, convinced I was lame, cuddled with pillows, and played in puddles created by rain made from tear drops and pit sweat from public shame
I was a slave only cause I ran away
I learned to stay
Studied the master harder
Put myself into maintenance
Rediscovered potential, took over the plantation
Wanna help free folk that felt like muah
Buried underneath a heap of heartfelt faux pas
They would pick at me like vultures, I watched them file their talons
Now I can fight, I can challenge, I feel like Miles Morales
I’m redefining the hero, I’m redefining the winner
Shout out RDFND, it’s my team, you’re watching us simmer
Pretty soon we’ll be ready, then we’re serving you dinner
The dessert is your heart and words, wash it down with a lemon
You’re gettin' no aid from us; just keep your self in your center
But from now on, say you used to be the man; Bruce Jenner
That’s a low blow, but high-key? Now he can’t feel it
I’m just havin' fun, dumbin' out, no hard feelings
I’m just being myself, yeah, I came into my own
They knew I lived in my mind, so they came into my home to tell me how to be
I started to do as I was told
But then I got it together, gave ‘em the boot, ‘cause I know... I:

[Hook]
