Текст песни My Shot (VoicePlay) с переводом

I am not throwing away my shot

I am not throwing away my shot

Hey yo, I’m just like my country

I’m young, scrappy and hungry

And I’m not throwing away my shot

I’m ‘a get a scholarship to King’s College

I prob’ly shouldn’t brag, but dag, I amaze and astonish

The problem is I got a lot of brains but no polish

I gotta holler just to be heard

With every word, I drop knowledge

Every burden, every disadvantage

I have learned to manage, I don’t have a gun to brandish

I walk these streets famished

The plan is to fan this spark into a flame

But damn, it’s getting dark, so let me spell out the name

I am the A-L-E-X-A-N-D-E-R we are meant to be.

A colony that runs independently

Meanwhile, Britain keeps shittin' on us endlessly.

I am not throwing away my shot

I am not throwing away my shot

Hey yo, I’m just like my country

I’m young, scrappy and hungry

And I’m not throwing away my shot

It’s time to take a shot

I dream of life without a monarchy

The unrest in France will lead to onarchy?

Onarchy how you say, how you say, anarchy?

When I fight, I make the other side panicky. shot.

Geniuses, lower your voices

You keep out of trouble and you double your choices

I’m with you, but the situation is fraught

You’ve got to be carefully taught

If you talk, you’re gonna get shot.

I am not throwing away my shot

I am not throwing away my shot

Hey yo, I’m just like my country

I’m young, scrappy and hungry

And I’m not throwing away my shot.

Come on, let’s go

Rise up

When you’re living on your knees, you rise up

Tell your brother that he’s gotta rise up

Tell your sister that she’s gotta rise up

When are these colonies gonna rise up?

When are these colonies gonna rise up?

When are these colonies gonna rise up?

When are these colonies gonna rise up?

Rise up

I imagine death so much it feels more like a memory

When’s it gonna get me?

In my sleep, seven feet ahead of me?

If I see it comin', do I run or do I let it be?

Is it like a beat without a melody?

I’m past patiently waitin' I’m passionatelymashin' every expectation

Every action’s an act of creation

I’m laughin' in the face of casualties and sorrow

For the first time, I’m thinkin' past tomorrow.

I am not throwing away my shot

I am not throwing away my shot

Hey yo, I’m just like my country

I’m young, scrappy and hungry

And I’m not throwing away my shot.

Rise up, rise up, it’s time to take a shot

Rise up, it’s time to take a shot

Rise up, take a shot, shot, shot

It’s time to take a shot, time to take a shot

And I am not throwing away my shot

Not throwing away my shot
