Sulaiman - On My Life [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Intro]

[Verse 1: Sulaiman]
Daily spars with the patriarch
It's crazy art can take apart just who we say we aren't
She smack me say we isn't, I can't erase the vision
They came to scrape her pension, we barely made tuition

Now we sitting living expensive with plastic dishes
Now what the fuck is this shit, I must've fucking missed it
You take two steps and pivot, no shot and had to dish it
But that assisting ain't wishing away them bankers visits

We seen the gas cut off, cooking the salmon raw
On the dock of the bay Watching like Hasselhoff
Then dad had fought, with a miraculous bout, made it through
But baby boo, this ain't what God made for you...

But I'ma make it through...
And you gon make it too...

[Hook: Sulaiman]
I done seen more in a day then niggas seen in they life
Everything they got in the streets ain't everything that you like
But if I go tonight, It's finna come with a price
Wish I had a bulletproof, I'd put that on my life

[Bridge]
I'm from the Lost Tribe, the real Lost Tribe
Bow to 20/3, or meet my 45
I'm from the Lost Tribe, the real Lost Tribe
Bow to 20/3, or meet my 45

[Verse 2: Sulaiman]
Set an example, set an example, set an example
Be more than headstone, urn on a mantel
Be a venemous vandal, be a simmering scandal
Live with conviction or die for what you stand for...

Maybe then I won't have ammo like Rambo
Ready to ramble temper tantrum prisons for ransom
College for grandsons modeling handsome
Bottles of tan rum, Huey had handgun Bobby had handgun

Bodies that came from, the tree that bore strange fruit
Now we gliding we riding all on visions that came true
Do I have to explain to, the lost child of Zion
That knowledge is all inside him he the volume

[Hook]
