T-Truth - One Chance [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Intro: T-Truth]

If at first you don't succeed
Try, try again
Sometimes, you don't try again
Cos you only have one chance
So what's it gonna be?

[Verse 1]

Back in the house, everyone it's T-Truth
For you, the evidence that's supporting the proof
Studio, forget the booth, I'm raising the roof
Making a right old noise while I'm still in my youth
They say, "Wait till you're in your prime!", ain't got time
I'm speaking my mind, whether rap or grime
I work hard, never look back at the past
I gotta do this now, cos time's travelling fast
I look back, on all the things that we've done
Sometimes serious and sometimes it was fun
And I look back, when things used to be messed
All the chances missed and people getting depressed
It's complex, day to day, I never be stressed
Cos I feel in my mind I've forever been blessed
I'm gonna go for it, give it all I got
Stepping up for the kick like it's my last shot

[Hook]

One chance, to be the best
Achieve success or just flop the test
One chance, to make the top
To never stop, to watch it drop

You get one chance
You only get one chance
You only get one chance
You only get one chance...

[Verse 2]

Whether I make it to the top, that is irrelevant
My elegant resonance will render me to be revenant
I never thought it would be easy to do this
Cos every day, I've had a lot on my to-do list
And I knew that I might lose respect
I'm a memorable person, I try to forget
With the chance that I get, I don't want it to go like
In-tro, bars, verse, slow
Fast, tem-po, charts, no!
Cos when it's gone I'm never getting it back
I can't take back the words that I say in a track
Being careful with my words is the thing that I lack
I don't smoke, don't drink, but I'll never be sober
When my chance is up and my time is over
I wanna say I went for it, gave it all I got
Stood up for the kick like it's my last shot

[Bridge]

It's difficult, not knowing what to write
I'm in the dark right now, I'm tryna see the light
When the stars shine, and the sun will set
I remember in my heart sometimes you only get

[Hook x2]
