Wit and Dre Murray - Choices [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Hook: Wize]
I know it sounds strange to your ears
Tell me what’s going on inside of him
He’s laughing through his fears
Tell me what’s going on inside of him
Why’s he acting up like this?
Why’s he acting up like this?
Why’s he acting up like this?
Why’s he acting up like this?

[Verse 1: Dre Murray]
He never knew his father so he hurt, tears on his shirt
This little boy knew much pain
No one to tell him what he’s worth, got him feeling like dirt
Kinda like he had no name, Charles
Kinda like he had no aim, pause
Think about that line, look you could press rewind but
Imagine all the things that were going through his mind
Tryna grow and be a man but no man he could find
In his home, the song of a generation lost
With no ID because fathers are unknown
And mothers loan hearts to men who have shown
That they only out to feed the flesh then they gone
Sad but it’s true, the story of his life though
His friend’s father stuck around, he must be a psycho
That’s what he’s thinking in his bedroom drinking
While he’s listening to demons say, “you’re probably gonna die slow
‘Cause that’s what happened to your father
His blood’s in your veins so why even bother?
Why try to change? This life only gets harder
In fact, here’s a rope kid, you can die a martyr
For the whole land of the fatherless
Don’t try to change your story, ‘cause I authored this
This has been my plan from the start of this
And keep his name out your mouth, he ain’t even part of this
Where was he at when your father left?
Them nights when you cried and you hardly slept
Thoughts racing, tryna catch a breath
Look this ain’t the end of life this is just the start of death.”

[Hook]
I know it sounds strange to your ears
Tell me what’s going on inside of him
He’s laughing through his fears
Tell me what’s going on inside of him
Why’s he acting up like this?
Why’s he acting up like this?
Why’s he acting up like this?
Why’s he acting up like this?

[Verse 2: Dre Murray]
What do you see when you look into his eyes
A soul full of pain or a boy full of lies
The good in his heart, yeah it’s something he denies
So he walks around angry, wearing a disguise
A mask, façade, kids in his class label him as odd
He says he thinks the future prays for his demise
So he laughs at the odds and claims that he’s God
Che, and this is what we facing
And I ain’t talking one, but a whole generation
Global epidemic, I ain’t just talking nation
Tune in to the culture, but let’s change the station

[Bridge: Wize] [2x]
I need to know that you’re still around
Will you just scream, scream out loud
Scream out loud

[Hook]
I know it sounds strange to your ears
Tell me what’s going on inside of him
He’s laughing through his fears
Tell me what’s going on inside of him
Why’s he acting up like this?
Why’s he acting up like this?
Why’s he acting up like this?
Why’s he acting up like this?
