TY$ - Like You Never [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

For every five steps  forward i take ten steps back 
 i love the music but can't see where its at ?
 strictly fast food runnings
 how we supposed to adapt 
How we sposed to raise kids to that 
 and i ain't blaming no one  its  starts with me 
 before heart failure theres blocked arteries
 we were usually on point  no archery 
 creative to a fault 
 like an art degree but something happened.. it kinda like a takeover
 the sampling law changed 
 the looping of the breaks over 
 tho corporate theres nothing pretty about this makeover 
Pay for play and now you influence  what we say
 we  even let you walk off with the deejay 
 its hard to hear a single scratch on records these days besides the cliches
  somebody got to keep up traditions 
 its a new day but still something is missing i mean

 (chorus ) 
Thats what i'm telling everybody   (i'm like you never)
Thats what i'm telling everybody   (i'm like you never)

 (verse two) 
 and now the new school is no school 
 cos everybody and their mama knows protools 
 writing raps and recording bad vocals 
Being a star is more than being anti social 
 i'm more than boastful  
I'm hopeful of brighter tommorrow 
 used to weaving words together other writers can follow
 i hear anger in music but the message is hollow upon further  inspection  you can see whats been borrowed 
 foreign ideals  of real bluffing to do with nothing  now we reinvent the wheel  
Caps get peeled as we slip on banana skins 
 stuttering stammering should have been fannie -loue hammer - ring
Instead we are glimmity glammering
This struggle is a headache plus anadin 
 mic check even breathing is challenging
 the music is  a powerful thing   especially when its used to boost the power within  but you dont hear me  ha!
 thats what i'm telling everybody   (i'm like you never)
  thats what i'm telling everybody   (i'm like you never)

( verse three)
 i had my palm read
She told me not to leave this alone 
 so i miss real artist like nina simone
 full of integrity  never to keen to be cloned
 thats why the need to be different  
Buried deep in my bones 
 cos swagger never paid bills just skills 
 i guess i took the long road mountain plus hills
 turntables and mic cables   love from the crowd is more important than the right label 
And i dont want the 90's sound back
But you can't deny the linn drum really sounds wack
Just living thru the movie but not feeling the soundtrack 
 not trying to be bourgie but not trying to be round that 
I grew up in a brown black facade so i'm  not trying to act like i'm that large 
 but i'm trying to rap like i'm that guard when its comes to culture i'm pulling raps card like  a placard
  chorus 
 thats what i'm telling everybody  (i'm like you never )
 thats what i'm telling everybody  (i'm like you never )
