Ray Rife - Professor Rife [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Uh
Imma get this all in one take
Professor, yea
Im mellowed out

[Verse]

Lost my direction since the train stopped
So Im writing about life just as the rain drops
Just clearing my thoughts, wanna seep through your cerebrals
I stroll through Martin soul, with Malcolm and Huey ego
Never really had faith in the holy savior
Seems like Im married to the pains
But affairs with liquor and pills
Still fail to fill the divorce papers
So I'm stuck with hurdles to jump later
Well I guess that's life
My weakest weakness is my greatest strength
Cause yall thinks its a disadvantage but trust I manage
What gives me the push to go on? I ain't eaten in days
Disregarding the crave to feast, I wanna eat on the stage
Imma product of my environment, a prodigy in poverty
Stripped of so much shocked guardian angels aren't robbing me
But through it all I keep pushing, the evils pulling
A tug of war between my conscience and you devils looking

[Sample]


[Verse 2]

Stay blessed my nigga, yes my nigga
You really think about it, could be worse my nigga, true shit
You can't complain more than you wanna live
You'll fail to connect the lessons from stressed needing yo bridge
Experience, will you learn from it?
Or use it against yourself?
Subconsciously scorned from it?
For example, women want chivalrous thugs but feel the need to play men
Yet looking for the same love, they're afraid to engage in
Don't make sense, I'll never know
You wasting time on what you hating, you'll never glow
End like Zab, yo potential will crash, youll talk shit cause you mad
Funny those scared to knuckle up the quickest with jabs
On that note, I point my index at the ones that gave me middle fingers
Or thumbs down, no grudge
We can still tie a bond though you bout as real as a pinky promise
I still give you my hand, to help yours, I shake with honor
