Illy - The Chase [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Ayo, I'm putting the pedal to metal
Might as well cut the breaks
Cause we don't stop
And we don't wait until its too late
Ayo, I'm putting the pedal to metal
Red line for the chase
Full tilt, we hit the red line for the chase

Welcome to the chase that's life man
What you can hold up in your left and your right hand
And it could change overnight with the right plan
With little more than a macbook and a micstand, look where I took it
And i don't tail coats, nor suits and ties
And i don't ride coattails, bye to the routine, i'm
Buckled up for a beautiful, if at times suitable, for vagabond dude type life
Don't view it as failure if i miss it
I just figure i proved that that way gets turfed
In the process of elimination gotta keep proving wrongs till the right one works
So we're persevering, polishing the tracks til it hurts to hear em
Bout to embark on the journey of an era
So its only right ima build us a ship worth steering, say it with me
Ayo, I'm putting the pedal to metal
Might as well cut the breaks
Cause we don't stop
And we don't wait until its too late
Ayo, I'm putting the pedal to metal
Red line for the chase
Full tilt, we hit the red line for the chase

Screw the rules if they mess with the tune of my message
Whats expected can't touch what you're doing if its destined
Do the hard yards, step by footstep
Cause with opportunity comes effort
Its more than a debate on whose is the greatest
Credits ue to all the true imitators
I followed in their footsteps, now im blazing
A new trail for the future, till fruits of my labour
Are ripe for the tasting, forever be chasing
Success, its for those who despite condemnation
Kept going, and failures forsaken
For those who didn't know how close they were when they gave in
Stay patient, but don't hesitate
Cause everything comes to those who hustle while they wait
So let em kick back, ima overtake their place
Ima chase it until it ain't a chase, but for now im saying

Ayo, I'm putting the pedal to metal
Might as well cut the breaks
Cause we don't stop
And we don't wait until its too late
Ayo, I'm putting the pedal to metal
Red line for the chase
Full tilt, we hit the red line for the chase

I make a promise to you mama
If i don't end up a lawyer, swear i'll still be a rich motherfucker
One way or another
But i don't need all the worlds money in my life to love it, im gonna
Ride for the come up, rise till i lay down
Shine till the suns up, rhyme till i break ground
Lights blurred, no safety belt
Im on the chase hard out man, success ain't gonna make itself
And i ain't gonna wake when im old
And regret that i woke out of a dream, just to chase the gold
Nah ima hold tight
On this rollercoaster of a ride called life, and i am
Prepared for the worst, but expecting the best
You can ride alongside or get left for dead
Repping A U S man, Melbourne in the place
Since we finish where we start yo, welcome to the chase

Ayo, I'm putting the pedal to metal
Might as well cut the breaks
Cause we don't stop
And we don't wait until its too late
Ayo, I'm putting the pedal to metal
Red line for the chase
Full tilt, we hit the red line for the chase
