Taylor James - Did It On My Own [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1: Taylor James]

So let me guide you with my light
This ain't just my hobby, this shit is my life
They see the work that I put in every night
While they're going to bed I just stay up and write
My blood, sweat, and tears spill all over this paper
I face all my fears and I question my maker
I smoke on the beach and pretend it's Jamaica
I do it myself, I don't need any favors
This for my haters, this for my foes
The women I've dated who played me like hoes
Spend 800 dollars on bottles of Rose
But shit, it's okay, cause I'm making a toast
To making the most of my situation
I've patiently waited for my generation
To open their eyes up and witness amazing
This is just like all the zips that I'm blazing
It's hard to remember, my memories faded
It's lost in my mental, forever I'm jaded
I try recollecting the steps in directions
That left my impressions embedded in mazes
So why do I gotta stand my ground when I'm skydiving?
Ya boy got the pride of nine lions
I'm not lying, I'm like a nine firing
If you wanna kill me you can die trying

[Chorus]

Now it's all clear, I'm feeling right at home
Yeah, y'all can keep talking cause I'm lost up in my zone
So fast forward to the day where I'm sitting on my throne
I wanna look back and say I did it on my own

[Verse 2: Taylor James]

These secrets I keep, they live deep in my heart
So now they can see what I leave in the dark
All day I stay playing the strings of my harp
If the sky is the limit I reach for the stars
She calls my phone when she feels alone
I think she wants to smell my kush cologne
But girl I can do this shit on my own
So don't fuck with me when I'm in my zone
My snapback's low and it covers my eyes
The shit that they pull just to cover their lies
I've discovered for a wise man it's easier to lead
A blind man instead of just leave him behind
It's South Bay, L.A., Killa Cali all day
I'm with them pretty little girls sipping Chardonnay
I mix my Henny with a little bit of Bombay

[Chorus)
