Pule - Stay Afloat [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Chorus:
Water rising up to my nose and fire burning under toes
Where do I go, where do I go, where do I go
Drama trying to bring me down and my problems want me to drown
I just don’t know, I just don’t know, I just don’t know
So I try to stay afloat, I try to stay afloat, I try to stay afloat
I try to stay afloat, I try to stay
Verse:
Pockets on empty and my Chevy is too
But that don’t matter cuz my Chevy can’t move
I Got a fucking blown engine and my rent past due
Yeah its late, like the period of that chic I last screwed
Fuck was thinking, didn’t proceed with caution
What the fuck was I drinking, got no money for abortion
This is a portrait of a portion of my problems
Still I’m trying to hold on like an orphan to a momma
Fresh up out of college all I make is 10 dollars
Fuck is a degree, swear I was better off without it
Life is full of shit, therefore my colonic is this pad
Full of these melodic notes I’ve jotted want it bad
And they say it can’t happen
Cause you live in Atlanta where everybody’s rapping
But I survived cancer bitch and everybody hasn’t
So I do it for my homies that are absent
When that money calls I pray I recognize the accent
Damn it if I don’t that means I jeopardize my family
Praying that a nigga don’t end up like my daddy
Hate him cause he left me love him because he had me
Paying student loans to this bitch that go by Sallie
Sadly I don’t know what I owe this ho exactly
Heading down the road to success but I’m in a taxi
And I’m going to get out and run I hope that driver don’t catch me
Question
Will they love me if my whip ain’t flashy
If my bitch ain’t bad as fuck and if my hooks ain’t catchy
Listen can’t control what nobody think
I rather be hated for who I am than loved for who I ain’t

Chorus:
Water rising up to my nose and fire burning under toes
Where do I go, where do I go, where do I go
Drama trying to bring me down and my problems want me to drown
I just don’t know, I just don’t know, I just don’t know
So I try to stay afloat…
