Текст песни How Many Minutes (Zerk) с переводом

I was raised in the middle of an ice age and I had to wait through the winter

for a nice day comin

Had to break through whatever’s in the way just to get it now my brain getting

better so my eyes been runnin'

See the anger within 'em as I played every image in a gaze at the day that I

prayed and I never

Got praise and I think I’m in a race to the end, and a pain in my lens like I

sprayed it with venom

It became a disaster, can’t let it happen, the way that I’m rappin' you ain’t

gon' win it

Got a page and a half all that I got, off of the top cause the line on the

page won’t fit it

Maybe I’m crazy, 'cause I can’t have a day to myself or to take any break or I

just start crazin' attention

I can’t be waitin' to make an impression

The angel of David he came and he showed me a way to escape from the cage I was

left in

I’m chasin' deception and I never gave it a rest, few thousand days I invested

It made me the best that I can be, but it strayed me away from the rest of my

family

I’m pressin my hand on my head cause I can’t even handle or can’t see

directions I stand

At a 4 way stop, all day watchin', cars and I wonder what way that I should go

Then I wait through the rain then I see snow, then I wait another day then it’s

all gone

Another year that I wait then I see more, less time remains and I devote

My life in this game and I’m rising to fame but I might never make it and be old

And I don’t understand, my clock is tickin I see the time in every hand

When I’m climbing I can’t get higher my hands get tired I vanish and fly to

other lands

How many minutes I got left until I’mma drop dead, done running I’mma fight it

like a man

Trying to figure out the numbers I write em in the sand and I’ve given up once

but I finally advance

And I walk tall, quit for a year I knew I’d be fine cause when I finally rhyme

it’s like ridin' a bike, I’ll never fall off

But I still don’t get it, my dad left when I was 14, I thought it was shortly

but look at him, still no visit

I’ve been an adult these 7 or so years, developed and grown, you never lived

through any

You still don’t live in a real home, you’re still broke and you still open a

5th sip it until gone

Still hoping you quit, you still don’t and you still try to tell me what isn’t

and is wrong

And it’s been out the window for years, I been holding tears and avoiding the

storm like a raincoat

Trying to see moments and can’t go, everyday’s gone and I wonder what more

might create though

And I thought I was on the right track if only I had the sight that I’d fail

though

I was following a path that I thought I could turn from but there ain’t no side

streets to railroads

And it’s so many years that go by and people gon' die in the sky like a pale

ghost

They just sit back watching the wind, I’m gonna win though when I climb in the

sail boat

(x4) How many minutes I got left until I’mma drop dead

Spent a while trying to figure out the right path, then I found I was limited

to tight cash

Then I had to get back to my dream, when the grass ain’t green you ain’t living

on the right grass

Gotta do what I got to do, been hiding in the dark, got a lot to prove

Cause when you drop and you fall and you got some bruises, the clock on the

wall don’t stop for you

Because the clock is tickin' while I write this sentence, the time is ending

and there might be less than

A second left and y’all get depressed and never notice you went your whole life

pretendin'

This life I’m livin' is like a prison with the time I’m given but it’s my

decision

To find a reason in life 'stead of being just like all the people that died who

just died from livin'

Silent attendance, what if my life just ended

At the wrong time and got left behind and couldn’t catch a ride to Heaven

What if there really was no life in Heaven, but what if there

Was and it didn’t like my presence

And what if I lied one time in 10th grade and that’s all he needed to not

invite my entrance

I digress I got a mind of questions, if I think too much, things will not get

done

And it’s been the hardest that I ever fought just to get here and it’s not

enough

And you got it rough when you been far and get left walking in a cloud of dust

And I been walking on a red carpet full of sweat, tears and a lot of blood

Rent’s hardly been paid but I make sure the checks already been made

And I’ve already been walking on a line of stars so I guess I’ve already made it

In my mind I’m in Hollywood, but I’m on a fine line but I still gotta smile

'cause I got it good

But I could’ve made more within everyday’s moment that came if I wasn’t on the

run

Everyday is an empty page until we write the scripture

Every painting was an empty canvas and a lifeless picture

Everyday we’re gonna get some rain but it dries up quicker

Suppress the pain until we’re left with greatness and a light to lift us

Get 10 mistakes until I finally get one, I never been the one to want to try

then give up

'Cause when I get down feeling like I messed up, I like the pressure 'cause I’m

fighting better

They bite the wrist of the hand that feeds 'em no anesthesia for the pain they

leave ya

With a hand that’s bleeding, no bandage either and abandon me with no air to

breathe in

But I can’t be beaten when I handle each and every man I see with just a random

ink pen

They must be thinking it can’t be me and then I’m stuck knee deep in the sand

I’m sinkin'

So many men hoping to get over the fence and they never even leaving the ground

then

I wanna be the one leavin' a message that people will mention in the year 3000

Appear beat down but the beat keeps pounding the heat leaks out then you hear

these sounds

And I stare at the wall with the clock while I walk to top and it just keeps

spinnin around and I just keep thinkin'

(x4) How many minutes I got left until I’mma drop dead
