Anthony Talbert Jr. - Atlas Shrugged [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

(Verse 1)
I wonder if you help me or you hold me back
You inspired half the songs I wrote a while ago
I feel I'm giving you my all
But you’re still holding back
I decided I was wrong it isn't time to go
Out of many you’re the one that I want to keep
I thought my dark Shades would pass when your near
But nightmares still haunt me as we fall asleep
I wake up kissing on your body tryna calm the fear
Leave a trail of kisses
1, 2, 3
Dreams failed
The wishes
Between you and me?
I never really had them
I'd rather make it happen
But I don't get six shots like a magnum
When it comes to rapping
I get one and I'm a use it right
Music's bright
Before I lose it all
I would lose my life
Used and confused
Insight tryna make this flight
Straight to the top
I'll do everything it takes tonight
What you're hearing is years in the making
Tears and some patience and a whole lot of hatred
Fears disappear
Seeing numbers like the Matrix
Ice on that wrist
And that ain't no fucking bracelet
These some dark minds
Dark kids
Still growing up
Spitting hard lines
What it is?
Still blowing up
You already know what's up
N.Y. Kid
Soldier stand down
Or stand your fucking ground
You don't want to fuck around
Story of Atlas when he put the Earth down
Woman and his team
Crushed entire regimes
Vengeance on the Gods
Igniting my dreams
I'm the Titan when he took a stand
Had the world in his hand
Put that shit down and walked away like his own man
He was a slave to power
Now he's free to be
A man, Builder of Gods
You and me

(Chorus)
A man, Builder of the God
Like you and me

And I still spit the rhymes like a flashback on the mic
Nasdaq, it's going down
Blowing up
Do it right
My music, my girl, my team
Everything I loved
Weight of the world on my shoulders, I just shrugged

And you still bring me flashbacks through the night
Still there
You hold me down
Bring me up
Then we write
My muse, my girl, just you
Everything I love
Sat back, relaxed
And together
We read Atlas Shrugged

(Outro)
“Let me ask you, would you like to stay here?”

“Won’t you get lonely?”
“I’ll be fine. I’m used to it.”

“He worked really hard to write the song lyrics so I don’t think you should be so harsh.”
