Retroisawesome - I Can't Tell [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Kanye West: I’m doin’ pretty good as far as geniuses go!

RetroI$Awesome: Uh… Awesome (3x)

(Clears throat)

(Hook)

Why these n*ggas hate on me?
Man I can’t tell

Why your shorty stay on me?
Man I can’t tell

How many pairs i got of Jordans?
Man I can’t tell

Man I can’t tell, man I can’t tell

(2x)

(Verse 1)

Once upon a time not long ago

Lived a young rapper named retro w/ the hardest flow

For the green he'd throw bullets at you like he was a quarterback

To let you know he run it like a audible

With the girls he started out shy like he was on the bulls

Now they doing a cartwheel if I call em boo

I be that cat in a hat, a snapback preferably

King of this rhyme sh*t call me Dr. Seuss

I dropped vintage, they couldn’t get enough of me

If it ain't Jordans or SB's I’m kickin' it in some chukkas b

Chillin' up top comfortably, n*ggas cannot f*ck with me

Gettin' the top from ya squeeze, hope you did not pucker b

‘Cause if you did then I feel for ya

I get on a track & spit a rap hotter than Brazil summers

Been the fresh prince, yall m.i.a. like Will's mother

Rappin' circles round these n*ggas I be going wheels, brotha

(Hook)

Why these n*ggas hate on me?
Man I can’t tell

Why your shorty stay on me?
Man i can’t tell

How many pairs i got of Jordans?
Man i can’t tell

Man i can’t tell, man I can’t tell

(2x)

(Verse 2)

Now n*ggas hear my tracks & rep the awesome movement

You ain't got no rhyme dough (Rondo) so you predictable like Boston losin'

Been the champ, so easily by default you losin'

Got your shorty on board like Erik Koston's shoes is

Been the best, I ain't got to prove sh*t…

Always in some new kicks & I stay with a 40 like 2 fifths

I’m in some Jordans you couldn’t afford, cost a new whip

Speeding in something colder than frost, driving cool whips

I been in the game for a few years... So I know this sh*t go

N*ggas get faded like new years, if they wasn’t w/ me from the get go

All of my n*ggas is animals, my circle lookin' like a Petco

Every weekend with a 40 like a n*gga got down w/ the XO

Retro gettin' paper like its growin' on trees

Well that is an ironic phrase cause sold em the trees

I go in when it means the most like Kobe for 3

Go to the Chi for the winter you still ain't colder than me

Awesome

(Hook)

Why these n*ggas hate on me?
Man I can’t tell

Why your shorty stay on me?
Man i can’t tell

How many pairs i got of Jordans?
Man i can’t tell

Man i can’t tell, man I can’t tell
