JT Kidd - The American Dream [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1: JT Kidd]
I'm, so sick of people telling I need to go to college
They say that's the only money goes in your wallet
They say that's only way to get big bucks in your pockets
I think it's y'all can live your dreams, so you want me to stop it
Well, how about I live my own life, and you live yours
While you're on your spouse you can't stand, I'm on tours
So I can't live my dream cause you choose not to pursue yours?
Do you know who you're talking to? I'm Austin Moore
The one who has the endless determination
Who says I won't make it, cause I started in a basement
Ironic we used a Dell computer to start chasing pavements
Your mind, you'll change it, so stop hating, and enjoy the playlist

[Hook: Lana Del Rey]
Hey, you're so dope
Your love is deadly
They think that I'm beautiful
They think that I have it all

[Verse 2: Krazy]
Whenever I need people, the devil comes out the darkness
Searching for souls and I’m the one that he preys on the hardest
The lowest parts of my life you wasn’t playing a part in
But soon as I bounced back, then they made me a target
I got war inside my mind, I hear rifle and canons
Sometimes I dream that die, and there’s kumbayahs and candles
It might be better cause being alive is a lot to handle
But something’s swaying my judgement and I don’t got the answers
It’s be vulnerable with them or just be tough alone
It’s nice to have someone have your back when something’s wrong
But one day if I needed y’all, and y’all don't pick up the phone
So i just fight my own battles and I just hustle home
Y’all gone miss me if I ever fade to black
But record this as a memory so you can play it back

[Hook]

[Verse 3: JT Kidd]
You think I have it all? It's far from that
Then I wouldn't have the hardest raps
And I wouldn't put heart on tracks
You don't know where I started at
You think I have it all? It's far from that
Then I wouldn't have the hardest raps
And I wouldn't put heart on tracks
You don't know where I started at
But if you wanna know, listen to my story and you might get a feel
Imma let you know something, and this right here is real
The only reason why I have, what I do today
Is cause I spent $200 on Logic instead of buying J's
Instead of worrying about people I wouldn't talk to after May
I pushed forward and cared less what they have to say
Instead conversing with fakes, I create a verse to lay
I pursued my dream, that's something you could never say
The next time you see me, it'll be on a screen
Forever a dreamer, cause I'm living The American Dream

[Outro]
We were two kids, just tryin' to get out
Live on the dark side of the American dream
