Merkules - Scars [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Yo, I was sixteen tought I was the man cause I was rappin'
Always partying and drinking never thinking what could happen
I remember when I went and hit the studio
I was nervous me and snak writing verses, I'm thinking who to know
I felt I allmost had something to prove
So I was acting hella stupid after chugging some booze
Really tought I was the man, looking up to the crew
But all my homies thinking "Merk, what the fuck's up with you?"
Now we finished all the writing and it was time to recall
I didn't know what I was doing when I opened the door, into that poof
Yeah I got it but it took me a while
And when I heard the finish product I just looked with a smile
So we finished up the text and I was on my way home
All my friends knew about it so they blew up my phone
Have me stressing, asking questions like
"Yo, how did it go?" I knew that when I hit the party I just put on a show
Yo, it's funny how your whole life could change in a day, that's the way that things go when you're making a name
I'm turning nothing into something, I'm just pavering my way
Pass that motherfucking mic or I might take it away
Yo, it's funny how your whole life could change in a day, that's the way that things go when you're making a name
I'm turning nothing into something, I'm just pavering my way
Pass that motherfucking mic or I might take it away

So I went and got my shit, then we met up with some friends
And I showed them all the track, from the starting to the end
So exited I decided it was time to celebrate, I went and bought a bottle, but we showed up kinda late
And the spot that we were at, were filled with all the dudes
I got drunk and stayed quiet and chilled, I know the rules
Then it got late, homie said it was time for us to go
We couldn't get a ride and started walking in the snow
It was me and my girl, my buddy and his chick
It was new-years night, we were chugging that twix quick
Couple other homies with us, we were on our way home
But a car almost hit us driving right of the road
I'm yelling "Slow down!"
But he didn't like the sound of that
Pulled over, got out of his car like he was down to scrap
What a tough guy, tryna' pick a fight with us
Even took a swing except he missed because the guy was drunk

Yo, it's funny how your whole life could change in a day, people love talking shit, let them say what they say
Just be you, all that bullshit 'ain't gonna stay, learn to be the better person what are they gonna say
Yo, it's funny how your whole life could change in a day, people love talking shit, let them say what they say
Just be you, all that bullshit 'ain't gonna stay, learn to be the better person what are they gonna say

As he jumps into his ride, he said he'll be back to find us
That was when two cars just pulled up behind us
The doors opens and some dudes jumped out
Mad song with machete swinging two arms out
So I'm running, tryna' get away, but in a state of shock
I was screaming for my life, I just wanna make them stop
Got knocked out with a bat, they were taking me out
Then i remeber a buddy put a switch-blade in my mouth
We were only a kilometer away from my house
I'm thinking I'm about to die, I was facing a doubt
Stop breathing, I was bleeding, couldn't make any calls
And then a see a big machete heading straight to my skull
Took one across the cheek, took one across the forehead
Crazy had my breath away from laying on the floor dead
My homie Jordan was nuts, he wasn't having it
Swinging at this suckas relentless, while they were stabbing him
They grabbed the girls, and tried to drag them in the car
But they were screaming so loud, they didn't make it very far
Then I blacked out, layed around and woke up in a hospital
Surrounded by my family and friends like who's responsible
So confused I could't answer any questions
But since then I stuck to the music so it's a blessing
If that didn't happen who knows just were I'd be?
Probably dead or in jail so here's a thank you from me
