Forgive me if I seem to preach
若我言语似在说教 请多包涵
But there is something that I want to say
但有些肺腑之言不吐不快
A message that I hope will reach
愿这番心意能传达到
People who are throwing life away
那些虚掷光阴的人们耳畔
I call it my philosophy
我称之为人生信条
That is why I pass it on to you
正因如此才与你分享
Because it works so well for me
它让我受益匪浅
It helps me get away from strife
助我远离纷争困扰
I hope you listen carefully
愿你仔细聆听
They say the truth will make you free
