Transcendent - So You Think You Can Rap? [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

I know I can rap, take notice of that
These bastards are bogus, ain’t holding me back
I’m ready, I’m focused, my flow intact
Your flow is like broken sinks, hoses with caps
Breathing is weaker and slow on the track
You’re breathing like Peter’s frog, holes in your back
Stay in the box like Shrodinger’s cat
My style is wild, all over the map
Damn, I’m losing my sanity
Bruising your ego then booting your cavities
People succeeding are stupid; it’s maddening
Proving it wrong = truth that I’m battling
Who wants to battle me? You and your cavalry?
You will get ruined in two seconds flat with me
Suplex a student for spewing their apathy
None of you care? All of you baffle me
Don’t you see that the world is going up in flames?
I am here to wipe out all of you shit stains
You’re bitch made so engage in falling on switch blades
And inhaling toxic fumes, increase your intake
I’ll gather actors for a fundraiser
Bidding on me stabbing wack rappers with a blunt razor
And one day, they will know that there is none greater
Stepping to the poet gets you roasted like a sunbather
I never pick my battles, I just fight ‘em all
Horrid strategy but I wanna show you right from wrong
When a fighter pilot bombs a 25-mile long
Strip in Gaza so you know my reasoning for writing songs
(I speak truth)
I speak truth needed on tracks
Beat an elitist with reason and facts
Til backs have been shattered and knees will collapse
Unfeasible raps, the preacher will ask
“Is he a demon unseen in a mask?”
Now people are screaming and leaving the mass
“The creature’s a heathen! He’s evil! He’s…AHH!
Um…No, I’m a citizen
Seeing the state of the world that we’re living in
Being irate is a sign that you’re vigilant
I am enraged ’cause I’ve been listening
And your indifference is giving the little kids
Images killing their sense of some diligence
Really? You’re willing to tell them the imminence
Of our destruction is nothing to fiddle with?
Do you fear change? Why are you frightened?
And why do you think that the world is alright when
The titans of Wall Street have gotten us all beat
And offer us nothing but breadcrumbs and heartbeats?
Take a look at your surroundings
Now look into the mirror at your power; it’s astounding
What you can accomplish, now imagine us in unity
The message getting through to you? I know it’s gotten through to me
Truthfully it’s probably hard for you to get what I’m spitting
It’s not something heard on radio or television
We should tell the children “Strive to be intelligent!
Being stupid isn’t cool, it’s pointless and a detriment”
I’m not saying just to rhyme what’s in your textbooks
I’m just saying it’s not all about the best hook
Better look at me, I got bars and got substance
Wanna know the scariest part? I’m not done yet
