Franc Grams - If Rap Don't Work [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

:::Sample Sings:::
"I'm gonna try something new… Until I succeed… I'm gonna keep on trying… Because in my heart I believe"

Verse 1:
If rap don't work...
I'll go back to stuffing grocery bags
Though I quit a year ago, to do some show that I had
If they don't hire me, that's cool… I'll resort to play ball
Or fill out applications in the food court in the mall
If rap don't work…
I'm sure there's some shit I can think up
Or call my homie Lew, see the ideas that he brings up…
Grab a ski mask, and guns, and wait till the suns down
And when it come round, armed robbery the brinx truck
If rap don't work
New ways everyday I'ma pray for em
Plus my homie Jus gonna blow soon, I'll wait for em
And my brother caught a fed charge
So worst come to worst, I'll just ask em for his phone
Get on and push weight for em
If rap don't work
I'll sell all my rookie basketball cards
Like Shaq, Larry Bird, Kareem Adbul Jabar
I even got a chamberlain card from 92
And MJ's last shot when he had the flu

And if rap don't work…
I'll sell life insurance easy as pie…
Like how hard can it be convincing people they'll die…
I'll remind em of all the people that may need em and why
And with the commission go on a shoppin spree in NY
If rap don't work…
Honestly I would probably be fine
If I claimed that I'd go n get a job I'd be lying
I'll just stick to making music as a hobby of mine
And google search, tryina find a sugar mommie online
If rap don't work…
I'll grab me up bunch of females
For a price hook em all up with some brothers in jail
Shit ain't free, but do it all for monthly fee
Send flicks, letters weekly, and make love thru email
If rap don't work…
I'll go back to school and get in the books
Pick it up from that 09 semester I took
I hope financials aids kind enough to wave my debts
And how I bought the new jays with my refund check

Verse 3:
And if rap don't work…
I'll go n host TV shows like bow wow
Or use my status, to throw events and bring a crowd out
Put on for the local emcees, that put it down now
And host battles every weekend at the spots downtown
If rap don't work…
I'll buy stocks, or get hella spiritual
Start a hotline, promoting that I'm selling miracles
...or get a boom box and dig up my old tracks
And hold a sign saying "will rap for stacks"
If rap don't work…
Get into to politics or talk to collages
Educate em bout the future and the use of scholarships
Tell the world about my journey, and how you ain't promised shit
N get booked every year at senior proms n shit
When rap don't work...
It will be a cold day in hell with chance of rain
Will be the day they cure cancer with no chance of pain
The day they stop locking nigga up for grams of cocaine
And if you know it like I do, that won't be today…
