T-Truth - Pure Skill [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]

We write lyrics as we go
And then we, perform em to the flow
And then we, record for the sake of mixtapes
Shock the system like a Facebook frape
It's an addiction, not lyrical fiction
Heat rising, feel the friction
It's musical and this is magical, animal
Easy, just the basics, radical
Anybody anywhere can take part in it
It's about how you do it, not how we starting it
Method, technique
Proficient in the profession so to speak
Mate your mandem's musically mediocre
Don't be the puppet, you look like a joker
People are sleeping, sorry if I woke ya
Can't sleep at night while I'm sipping my mocha
It's too much, it's so exciting
My writing will work to be quite enlightening
While I'm miking, the mic is shining
The light is brightening, the time is mine, sing

[Hook x2]

You don't have to be famous
All it takes is a bit of pure skill
Doesn't matter if you're brainless
All it takes is a bit of pure skill

[Verse 2]

Stanza's electric, studio's hectic
Got to where we wishing to be
Last time didn't catch it right
But there's still plenty more fish in the sea
No wonder they lost the plot!
I know some kids can't even get the job
They gotta have some kind of focus
Ain't gonna get money like hocus pocus
Nah, bogus! I know they told us
Bout all the world news, ain't going to hold us back!
On track, success is what I'm after
Written a bit, yes I'm a typical grafter
Good as gone like chocolate muffins
So goodbye little good-for-nothings
Word hard in it
It's bout how you doing it, not how you starting it
I got a shot, not gonna pass it off, what
This life's a play, got a plot and cast are shot
It's got more than one actor
But real talent doesn't need X Factor

[Hook x2]

[Verse 3]

I can always compete and haste in rhyme
Sorry I'm not a complete waste of time
Cos everybody can see whenever I'm showing
What I can do, nobody knows where I'm going
Goes to show sometimes you doubt yourself
But I never think of nothing I got out of stealth
I try help out but I cry for help
I never do this for the wealth but this has to sell
Ain't trying to mimic, I limit the lyrical gimmick
In this I got more rhymes than an irritable limerick
Ain't even done yet, ain't gonna go down easily like sunset
Listen, with pure skill, you can do what you want
Just go for it man, take a punt
If you don't succeed, try it another time
Cos giving up is quite a brotha crime!
You are the best team the rest ever seen
Never rest to be living the dream, seamless
Nobody's perfect, don't listen to the chatter
We always getting better and it doesn't even matter! (Oh.)

[Hook x4]
