Mistah Marvel - The Grown Up [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Yeah
Thank You!
Thank You!
The Modern Marvelous!
Thank you for being here!
Thank you for coming!
You're far too kind, baby!

C'mon!
Yeah!
I received an award tonight!
I'll never tell you where I got this blazer from!
Never would, never will

[Mistah Marvel]
It's Lex!
She ain't never seen them city lights, from that city scape
She ain't made the right call, this a probate
She coming out tonight. This is our escape
And I'm a superhero cause I'm so cape-able
She seen me writing songs in a book I call Psalms;
I could quiet up a storm. I'm a rebel I speak qualms
But my demeanor is calm. She's leaning on my arm
Spent the whole night shaking hands, guess it's just my charm
Opportunities and doors been opening
This a moment from my dreams, let me soak it in
This is Hip-Hop grind and philanthropy
Gave back to the hood,spit a mixtape and a charity
Moment of that clarity;
It never occurred to me:
Young, Black, Gifted motherfucker - that's a rarity
Balance my disparities. This is my world
Nigga this is my word:
I received an award tonight

[Hook]
Yeah!
I received an award tonight
Yeah!
I received an award tonight
I'm gone! This is my song!
Been so long, haters thought I was gone
Alright! Well, I'm back. Yeah

[Mistah Marvel Verse 2]
There again we
Could be foolish
Not to quit while
We're ahead!
But see I'm ambitious and quitting is social suicide
So I guess it's ironic that I'd rather be dead
Than be defeatist!
A Coward dies a thousand deaths, nigga, did you hear it
I'm glorified with each and every step, yeah I can feel it
A thousand eyes staring, thousand hands go cheering
I'm sipping Beam and, yeah nigga, I feel it
A power couple, she making moves, too
I make a break-through, cap and gown, May and June
To another level I assume
Cause there ain't nothing else left to do
But make a major move
And here's a toast to the life I chose
When other niggas chose clubs, drugs and hoes
From SoBe to SoHo
Sleepless nights off NoDoz
To bourbon, whiskey, and Soco
We kick it like a Dojo - Ha!

[Hook]
Yeah!
I received an award tonight
Yeah!
I received an award tonight
I'm gone! This is my song!
Been so long, haters thought I was gone
I'm back. Well, alright!

[Breakdown]
There again we
Could be foolish
Not to quit while
We're ahead

I could see us many miles away

There again we
Could be foolish
Not to quit while
We're ahead

I could see us many miles away
Yeah

We could quit a long time ago
I guess it would be honorable
But put that make-up on, it's time to go;
It's been a long time, I know
But we ain't wait'n for signs. Oh No!
I'm guessing we here now!
We made another year now!
But we ain't in the clear, no
Cause life is still vicious
But at least I'm in your ear now!
