Laws - Rinse [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1: Laws]
So what they said your hair’s messy and you walk funny?
So what they said you got a lisp and you talk funny?
A rose by any other name
Might sound different but the fragrance is the same
If they calling you a bum, go posh on em
If they acting too pretty, go goth on em
The cool crowd say you not that fine but you beautiful
You God’s design, you feel me?
Tune ‘em out with your headphones
Pumping that soul food through the iPod in your homeroom
Be yourself ‘cause you got nothing to prove to ‘em
In the hallways, turn this up and just move through ‘em
Who knew this life could make us question who we are?
So when they try to knock you down, pick you head up
You a big, bright shining star, it’s my duty to remind you who you are
You gotta stand tall and just…

[Hook: Laws & Paul McCartney]
Rinse the raindrops from your head, wipe your eyes, go back to bed
In the morning, skies’ll clear and I’ll be here
See the sunlight, break the ice for the birds of paradise
Listen to the song they sing, awakening
You could believe in fate but you could make your own
Take it from the shy kid that used to fear
Whatever that you want in life, you gotta take that
To get the words that you used to hear
And start thinking in a new way ‘cause it’s a new day

[Verse 2: Laws]
She a late day, many men bring a bouquet
Then she bring her kids up like a touché
Then they run like she got a gun and she do spray
But they not bullets, they tears from a used face
You need to stop searching for a father figure
‘Cause your kids got both a mother and a father in ya
I can’t imagine how hard it must get
These suckers got you feeling like your kids are bargaining chips
But they your babies, I had to big you up on the track
‘Cause you don’t need a man to raise ‘em, pat yourself on the back
And they should write your life and publish it
Call it Memoirs Of A Double Shift plus you been staying out trouble
Since you had them, they was your pride and joy
Two things that you never could lose, just think about the love you bring
While you struggling, imagine when your situation improves
So if he ever make you feel like you gotta choose
Take his number out your phone

[Hook 2: Laws & Paul McCartney]
Rinse the raindrops from your head, wipe your eyes, go back to bed
In the morning, skies’ll clear and I’ll be here
See the sunlight, break the ice for the birds of paradise
Listen to the song they sing, awakening, oh yeah
Don’t rely on no one, go and get your own
Take it from the weak kid that used to depend
All the people that tried to use me and what I didn’t have
To try and keep me as a abused friend
But now I’m paying off my debts with a fist to the chin, you heard me?

[Verse 3: Laws]
I know they told you that they heard me on the radio, traffic jam, ten times
Kind of crazy yo, I know you hurting and you probably expecting something
But until I sort my life out, you ain’t getting nothing
This a friendship test, no make ups, the good life’s the reward for an A+
Though I'mma take this flight out and tell you to stay up
And exercise the given talents God gave us
I know you not the type to disrespect behind my back
So I ain’t looking back, I ain’t looking back
I’m looking forward for the both of us besides this rap
I crack my knuckles and massage the track, watch me work the kinks out
And spill my ink out till the track can’t help but drown
And the producer pours the drink out, I’ll never dig out
Till the day we pass, I will hold you down, whatever happens man
I got you, I got you, I got you, I got you, I…

[Hook 3: Paul McCartney]
Rinse the raindrops from your head, wipe your eyes, go back to bed
In the morning, skies’ll clear and I’ll be here
See the sunlight, break the ice for the birds of paradise
Listen to the song they sing, awakening, awakening, awakening, awakening
