Brooks - October 28th [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Ever Diaz nacio el 28 de octubre pesando 8 libras 5 onzas
Fue el segundo de mis 4 niños
El uniqo que no mi dio dolor cuando nacio
Y eso era quando sabia que iva ser un niño especial

Now for my non-spanish speakers gotta excuse my mom
I just felt she was good for the song
I mean what better person to introduce me to y'all
Then the first woman I loved
And loved me back
Now I was lucky enough to be raised by both parents
Even though there are times they both get me embarrassed
One of them knows how special I am
The other one, well you can call him my dad
The bonds always there it's just a lil different
It's all good once one of us decides to listen
But fuck it! I'm all grown up now!
It's time to start to make my own fuckin' decisions
Everything looks great, I'm talking about the future
It's been 3 years since my teacher called me a loser
They kept telling me to be an engineer
They all fear I picked the wrong career (oh well)

Creciendo fue un niño muy tímido
Le gustava los deportes
Y una historia chistoso
A los 3 conocía el alfabeto en Inglés y Español
¿Especial verdad?
Pero ya casi lo perdi cuando tuvo el accidente

The big 2-0, I almost didn't make it
There was glass everywhere, I can still kinda taste it
I believe I was a part of a miracle
'Member it like yesterday but it was only weeks ago
Never thought me and death would ever get that close
Running my car right into that grey light post
Car full with my brothers, seat-belts unstrapped
No way they were gonna die today, fuck that!
Driving down the 10, on our way home
We just finished celebrating at ESPN Zone
Jay and 'Ye on blast
Switched lanes, hit a hole
Steering wheel got a mind of its own
Next thing you know we spinning in the wrong direction
And it happened so fast like it was only two seconds
Got home and prayed, tears on my moma's face
God was watching us that day, everybody was safe (Shit)

Ever estaba en la cocina
Pegando la mesa y cantando
Y ah, hasta las primeras horas de la mañana
Y entonces yo le compré un CD player
Y molestaba un chingo
Pero eso fue mi forma de mantenerlo cerca de mí sin problemas

I should've died man you should've seen my left side
Maybe there's a real reason to why I survived
Forget my ride, I thank God I'm alive
This life seems to go faster than how I drive
Now I feel like being there for my lil brother
Just know your whole life's ahead of you like a book cover
Shit I still got a long way to go, not skipping any page
I'll pay my dues while they pay me minimum wage
Maybe I should try to rap for a living
Everything's worth a shot when it comes to makin' millions
Im just excited to start this next chapter
Let it be full of laughter and a happy Ever after
Cuz if there's one thing I learned after making this song
It's that they never really miss you 'til you're dead or you're gone
And if that's what it takes for me to appreciate life
I don't really mind if I almost die, twice

And if you can't respect that your whole perspective is wack, maybe you'll love me when I fade to black(x4)
