Rampage The Misfit - Born 2 Be Different [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Hook: Sample of "Burning Bright" by Shine Down]
I feel like there is no need for, conversation
I wonder if the things I did were just, to be different
I would rather reveal myself than my, situation
I wonder if the things I did were just, to be different

[Verse 1]
They said I walk around with a chip on my shoulda'
No composa', like my girl slipped into a coma
Look into my eyes you’ll see a nigga barely soba
Reality sets in now emotions carryin' ova
I live in the crossroads of comedy and tragedy
At times I lost hope, now I’m drownin' in insanity
I keep trying to get up, but fall because of gravity
I hide my scars behind these bars and they so unflattering
But I’m real wit myself, u want proof of what I'm talking 'bout
'Bout how I spent my youth just trying to make my mama proud
But its never good enough I was never perfect shit
These walls that I’m putting up hide all my nervousness
Now I’m rewordin' it in terms y’all could relate to
Always have faith in myself yet I’m so unfaithful
So wen them haters talk down I’ve learned not to listen
'Cuz no matter what they say I ain’t ashamed I was born different

[Hook]

[Verse 2]
Y’all hungry for a piece of mind?
I’ll give you a piece of mine (listen)
While evenly beastin' that’s right I beat the odds
I'm a misfit, who's not ashamed to scream it loud
Started out a decent child
Now I got em thinking how...could he
Just throw his life all away
And take off like a rich man’s holiday
See I ain’t looking for a sign of praise
I’d rather play video games with my bros to feel at home when I'm away
Or tell my girl that I love her to death
So 'till my last breath I’ll always keep you in my heart
And nobody can change the fact my persona strange
But I’m just taking my life and making it art
So while I might seem hard on myself
There’s a part of myself that just wanna die
And I’d rather live with that fact then live in a lie
So I’ll just take my box of Newports to slowly blow the pain out
I knew I was different since the day that I fuckin' came out

[Hook]

[Verse 3]
You wanna ride wit a nigga I’m in the eye of the storm
Yolo don’t apply to a nigga 'cuz like a phoenix I am reborn
Came from the denominator seeing danger out my peripherals
One bullet in the chamber, spin it, no more pain than came the reciprocal
Image of my baby brother's face made me break down
Left me speechless no words could even explain how
I would never leave you by yourself
'Cuz the future bumpier den my old complexion
Just to clear it up, I'm always here to help
That’s why I rap mad hungry like Dr lector
In Sunday school they never answered my questions
Next semester, protesting became my profession
I spit affliction that’s non-fiction, proud I was born different
You should be 2 don’t try to fit in it’s cool to be true don’t forget it
Just think how the losers end up winning
Like right now I’m cooking up hits like moms in the kitchen
So eat up them quesadillas, open them books and read up
And watch how I bring to life everything that I used to dream of

[Outro]
The great poet Ralph Waldo Emerson once wrote
"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment"
That quote always resonated in me'cuz my whole life I been discriminated against for being different
But that's how I was born
I'm not a leader I'm not a follower I'm a rebel with my own cause
I never gave a fuck about expectations or what people feel is right for me
'Cuz at the end of the day this the life the chose me
And I just talk about it most people just stay silent
I can't 'cuz when I die people'll remember me for what I was
Different
