Right

Fall in love with defeat
沉溺于失败滋味
Throw my endeavors on the shelf
将心血束之高阁
I never back up like cleo lemon on myself

Lemonade connoisseur life's lemons coming out
啜饮命运酸涩 笑对人生百态
When life gets sour know I still devour
纵使际遇乖张 我仍甘之如饴
I remember peabody mice crawling up the shower
记得浴室管道里攀爬的卑微过往
Now it's motorbikes
而今机车轰鸣
Warm nights out in maui

Artistic integrity
艺术家的纯粹本心
Where did you come up with that
你怎会有如此荒谬的想法
You're not artistic and have no integrity
你毫无艺术造诣 更无原则底线
You know you really need some help

Check it so my chin's high like a japanese pilot
看我昂首挺胸如日本飞行员般傲然
They frontin' they charles s dutton movin' garbage
他们装模作样 不过是搬运垃圾的跳梁小丑
And what you callin' that so called hard sh*t

One like me like I founded a convent
像我这样的存在 犹如创立修道院般独特
To contend my content
捍卫我的创作内核
I'm on ends meet like a vegetable omelette see
我收支平衡像蔬菜煎蛋般精打细算
So the more you see
所以你越深入了解
It's few niggas speakin' like me
就越发现鲜少有人能像我这般发声
So they put me in the box with he and he
于是他们把我与他和他归为一类
And them which is more of a circus than a fair
这更像是马戏团而非公平竞技场
They work to get there so to work to get theirs
他们拼命跻身其中只为分得一杯羹
I'll be nothin' but a replica lookin' in the mirror
我岂能沦为镜中倒影 徒有其形
Respect still there but ya boy's right here
敬仰犹在 但真我始终如一
We apples and oranges but everybody pears
我们本是橘枳殊途 世人却妄断同株
They say I'm lupe they say I'm lil' wayne
有人说我是卢佩 有人说我是李伟恩
They say I'm too jay to portray new lay
说我太杰式 难塑新篇章
They say I'm too nice to be a rapper

The prerequisite is gun clappin' so what happened
难道非要枪火轰鸣才算合格
They label me a backpackin' n***a on fag sh*t
他们给我贴满标签 尽是荒谬定义
I laugh at 'em

我正开启暴走模式
Only thing in common is these f**kin' matsumotos
唯一的共通点只有那些该死的松本
Yeah live from the so ho
没错 来自苏豪区的现场播报
And hov told me I'd blow joe
霍夫早就预言我会爆红
See I rap like a lifetime blown nose
瞧我的说唱像用尽一生的擤鼻声

But higher up than ya'll
却仍凌驾众生之上
Matt leinart when firing the ball
像马特·莱纳特精准传球般从容
Maya angelou spawn abandoned and raised by nas
如玛雅·安杰卢的弃子 被纳斯抚养
Raised by the sharks but I'm swimming with the prawns
在鲨群中长大 却与虾米同游
I found my own lane
我开辟了自己的航道
