Текст песни Cassius Clay (Dave) с переводом

Made this happen, I was the cause

Hand me the baton, hand me the torch

Running the game like it’s a sport

But all I got in this world is my word and my balls

Yeah, says Scarface

Yeah

Goodfellas learn the hard way

Never had a godfather or my padres

So I went and got some Margielas for my margè

'Cause it’s been graveyard shifts since I put my dad in his grave

Made it out of the maze, I’m in amazement

No haram, I go ham when I pray

'Cause there’s no real helping hand when handling pain

God made man in his image, I’ma create

I’ma be great, mi casa, su casa, Cassius Clay

Rumble in the jungle, I’m from the land of the brave

Souls in the sea, I rode in the deep, now we’re the wave

Yo, Dave man, I still remember conversations

About awards and invalid validations

I got the world in my hands, that’s world domination

Man are not pop, we’re just popping to the population

I got dreams and ambitions, people that listen

Love the fans 'cause all I had was fiends and a kitchen

I’m in Dior, guess I’m preachin' in Christian

My pockets deep but my genes full of riches

Yeah, the sentence of a king

I got people who depend on me, the penance of a king

My teacher mentioned credit, never said it was a thing

Why you think the mortgage lender isn’t lending her a thing

Yeah, from a real estate to real estate

Made sure I ate with all my niggas before the dinner dates

Yeah, I had so much on my plate

Now I’m eating like a king, had to work like a slave

Imagine if we never imagined this

Imagine if our imaginations couldn’t fathom it

Imagine if the butterfly effect was a caterpillar

In the Garden of Eden by the tree where the apple is

I’m way too talented

To still be in the sticks where there’s javelins

I’m Olympic, on mount Olympus’s peak

At the top it’s only us, I’m with my G’s

But I ain’t gotta be high, there’s higher powers than me

It’s A-V, I fell asleep and spoke to MJ

And he told me to heal the world, make it a better place

Nuff red jackets in my ends, it’s the end days

Why you think I’m rollin' with trendsetters that set pace?

Grew up in a race

Where the races are places where they wanna replace us

I’m patient but then I’m impatient

God’s grace has been ever so gracious

Something to say but I’m the savior 'cause I’m in the Matrix

And alien 'cause I’m in a spaceship, I saw my niggas on slave ships

I remember tellin' Whitney, «You're my queen»

I was selling Bobby New Edition on my street

Friends were taking pictures, taking pictures of my team

When saw the bigger picture than the picture of my dreams

It was nightmares where we lost Mo and 'Leng

Had the nigga feelin' outta place at his home address

I’m the first nigga with insomnia who overslept

I paid 70 in taxes, it don’t match what I owe to them

Man, it’s crazy

Lately I see a lot of men tryna play me

I ain’t an escort but it’s fuck you, pay me

Deja vu every time that I get a break, G

I used to visualize my reality in a daydream

Dream to be happy, are you happy with a dream team?

Full of happy niggas, are you happy with your team?

How many men are talented and ended up on the street?

He didn’t act on it, now he looks unhappy with the scene

Seen, I mean Happy Halloween

Me and the team branched out from selling leaves

If my life was a film, the title on it’s release would have to be, «Just Read This One Incredible Scene»

I ain’t had a break since the peddle bike in my teens

So I wouldn’t lose sleep if you couldn’t sell me a dream

I’m tighter than guys, it’s all lies that they’re feeding

The seeds of the seed grew the tree in the trees and no reason for the way that

you living, make a decision

I hate mediocrity, last dream I had I saw Socrates

And he told me he believes in my philosophy

I just do numbers, I ain’t waitin' on the lottery

Nah, I’m the best on the scene

The only thing that follows in your mentioning me

Man invested in a girl interested

But she ain’t invested if she don’t say invest in your dreams

Do your best for your queen, I invest for the queen

There’s a big fucking difference

When I was 18 I was six-figure nigga trigger happy, I’ma killer

For dinners we ate livers and corn beef

I work in silence, my touch Midas

Yes, color isn’t real but don’t let 'em divide us

We’re all blacks tryna run our own race

In our own way feeling pressure from our own race

Strugglin' to relate

In a black man’s eyes, see pride, see pain

See joy, see days of hardship

You wanna be black, but you don’t know what dark is

You want our blood, but you don’t know what heart is

How could he draw me out if he don’t know what art is?

I’m Picasso, diss me a man know

It’s kidnap

Nothing but red paint when the van goes

I don’t make pop art, or so

And these kicks that I wore hold up

I had a tough upbringing, and hard days I saw those

Weight on my chest, only right I’ve got a torso

Be happy for me, I’m happy to see

I happen to be the only one that made it happen for me

As a child I saw loss, now I’m a man in defeat

Outstanding, I stand for something when I stand on the beat
