ThisisDA - Lifers [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Chorus]
Ain’t that a miss? They wanna see me broke while I’m tryna end up rich
They puffin’ on that “La La” tryna do it big
Best be ‘Ready to Die’ I, ain’t playing with this, kid
Ain’t that a miss? They wanna see me broke while I’m tryna end up rich
They puffin’ on that “La La” tryna do it big
Best be ‘Ready to Die’ I, ain’t playing with this, kid

[Verse 1]
Now way before Jay was in the game, I’m talkin’ like Daddy Kane
Was sittin’ on MCA and Biggie started his reign
And ‘Ready to Die’ dropped, add on say 5 days
My mama went did the same ’94 here I came
Right on time no delay, they say was nothing strange
But a full head of hair, right there I call my mane
The Lion in this, Jungle, rumble never humble
Stumble? Never crumble
Where are you gonna run to fool?
Get ya life done too, realised it’s true
Nobody else has got my back in this world of cruel
Misdemeanours with people who never seen ya
But wanna take everything you’ve ever made with subpoenas
Duck it, ain’t nothing meaner Trust that I’m suttin’ cleaner
Buckin’ like Angelina till my tomb puts me deeper
In the ground, underground I’ll make ground
Shake the heavens and the Earth with the sound
What now, huh

[Chorus]
Ain’t that a miss? They wanna see me broke while I’m tryna end up rich
They puffin’ on that “La La” tryna do it big
Best be ‘Ready to Die’ I, ain’t playing with this, kid
Ain’t that a miss? They wanna see me broke while I’m tryna end up rich
They puffin’ on that “La La” tryna do it big
Best be ‘Ready to Die’ I, ain’t playing with this, kid

[Verse 2]
T-H-I-S-I-S Best give me more room
I’ve been stressed, ah yes a mess now meet your DOOM
Like MF, impressed with less Now who wants to
Go against the best? I bet you dudes can’t do
Anything I set the test I guess you lose
So better yet, pass it next let’s see if it’s true
If these beats and grooves can reach animate dudes and teach damaging crews
To reach further than you
Much higher than what they do, I’m tired of how they move
Inspired by all the lying so wired they getting groomed
But who really cares
I do my dirt all by my lonely, I don’t take stares
Elevate till I get on ‘G and I’m nearly there
Everyone here got heights they fear
But never go let it stop you from reaching your destiny
Trust me it’s getting clear
Who for me is really there and who’s just here to take what I make within a snare

[Chorus]
Ain’t that a miss? They wanna see me broke while I’m tryna end up rich
They puffin’ on that “La La” tryna do it big
Best be ‘Ready to Die’ I, ain’t playing with this, kid
Ain’t that a miss? They wanna see me broke while I’m tryna end up rich
They puffin’ on that “La La” tryna do it big
Best be ‘Ready to Die’ I, ain’t playing with this, kid
