Aloe Blacc - Here Today [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
I’m a lone lost wandering soul tryna find where I belong
And I’m lookin’ for a place where it feels alright to be wrong
Just a loud-mouth, hard-headed, fool-hearted stubborn old son of a gun
Chip off the old block with a chip on my shoulder that weighs a ton
All I know for sure is that nothin’ is forever
And all that matters is how we get along together
Life gets harder every day that I get older
Hope I figure out why I’m here before it’s over

[Chorus 1]
Cause we’re here today and gone tomorrow
We’re here today and gone tomorrow
Lead the way, never follow
Here today, gone tomorrow

[Verse 2]
I been stuck at home alone on nights when no one calls
And I’ve had nights where I can take my pick or have them all
And I had those days where I search my pockets for a nickel and a dime
And I’ve had those days where tryna make money was a waste of my time
I’ve had shiny brand new leather patent loafers
And I’ve had torn up bruised old teddies handed over
All I know for sure is that nothin’ is forever
And all that matters is how we get along together

[Chorus 2]
Cause we’re here today and gone tomorrow
We’re here today and gone tomorrow
Through the joy and the sorrow
We’re here today and gone tomorrow

[Verse 3]
We ain’t promised tomorrow
So I’m gon’ live for today
Been from 5 star hotels to cockroach motels
And rode day-whole drive retails to thrift store re-sales
I’ve had chauffeured town cars to an old broken down car
It ain’t what happens to you it’s what you do about it

[Chorus 1]
