Soul Khan - The Machine [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Intro/Hook]
I don’t want my baby born
With a heart that’s made of chrome
We all feel so connected, yet we all feel so alone
I got lost in the screen
Forgot what it means
To turn off the machine

[Hook]

[Verse 1]
I always felt like I'm kind of an uncommon man
Been vibing on the jam since mama got a sonogram
I stay moving like a wanted man that shot a man
While I’m looking for the promised land in a dollar van

They can’t shake me like I’m wavy off Klonopins
So if you hate me, you can say it to my hologram
I ain’t got a fuckin clue why they fuck with you
I’m irresistibly gripping like koala hands

Well, it’s sad cause they proved my suspicions
They only feed a hungry man food for religion
But how is Tom Cruise getting booed by the Christians
Who let a faith healer say he’s moved by a vision?

Well, this for the girl that’s really got a hold on me
The younger me that thought there’d never be an older me
The folks that were old enough to grow up with a rotary
And youngins that were busted in the ovary to jodeci

[Hook]

[Verse 2]
Lemonade was a popular drink
Said the ghost of a guru in a bottle of ink
But no matter who I outwit, y’all mad about my outfit
Sheeeit, y’all don’t ever tell the models to think

You’re trying to critique all of Soul Khan’s clothes
‘til you’re lying at my feet like you’re Voltron’s toes
Say tomato? i’ll hit you with a to-ma-to
Fuck a double time, i’mma rhyme Brokaw slow

I’m contrary
Like selling Jordans for Starburys
And even more since I got married
Trying to bury all the spirits i’ve been plagued with and make sense
Of the questions that I been wrestling since I got hairy

I don’t rock with you fashionistas
Son, it’s on like the Contras and Sandinistas
I will crush any obstacle that’s between us
And take your heads as a pledge of your fans' allegiance

[Hook]
