Werd - Rhymes With Purple [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Werd]
S.O.S. Edinburgh
Hip-hop, Yeah, In Edinburgh

(Auld Reekie)
It’s Auld Reekie Edinburgh
The place were I live, it’s where I suffer
It’s where I surfaced, then found purpose
Purchased a mic now I live in the circus
Hurts it’s just this small rap circuit
Birthed it with a new style they judged it
Loved it, chucked it, shunt it, bump it
Buy it, try it or get to (uh) with
Your biased, slyest, sick agendas
I try to stay chilled but you raise my temper
We live in a city where we all remember
It’s not all the splendor of city centre
The castle, tourists, don’t you loose it
I see the poorest and kids with bruises
Smacked up mums and the youth out boozing
A fucked up place if you keep on looking

[Sample]

[Werd]
Here listen (real talk)
I don’t act like that man that I is
Nor do I act like the clan that I’m with
I don’t act, in fact I is
So on these tracks you see how I live
Shit, it’s a day in the life
We drink all day, we drink all night
(It’s not a good thing) see I feel shite
That’s the reason that I drink, the reason that I write
See demons creeping got to get steaming
Got to seep out this stuff calling feelings
Got to ease up on the weed I’m breathing
In day out of my box like D.M.T
Reeking, vampire life
Because you know I’m out of my box all night
Put coffin down in the break of the light
Pure coughing up shit I never seen in my life

(Never ever what it seems, in Edinburgh)

Look, there’s different sides to the city
There’s different sides to us
Welcome to Scotland
