Текст песни My Life in 5 (Rah-C) с переводом

When I was 14 I thought that I’d be famous in a year

Didn’t have a lot talent but my vision was clear

Submissive of fear

I steered towards releasing on the internet

Couple years later went to college growing into debt

I had a hundred songs out

Recorded on computer mics

Saved up for a blue yeti

Got to work and hit the lights

11th grade

I knew my music was a pulled grenade

Was so afraid of being laughed at

The jokes were over played

They made me out to be that kid in high school who tried to rap

But I saw they lacked potential wasn’t falling for that trap

And I had a girlfriend to

I was young and getting ass for the first time

And like men do

All my energy was focused on her body not the soul

Didn’t write a lot of lyrics and the music took a toll

Had to get it in control

So we broke up

Was 17

Low self esteem so we smoke up

Now senior approaches

I’m trying make this music happen while I’m ashing roaches

Football was everyday I listened to my coaches

But every night my drive to write ferocious

And I started hanging with this girl who played with my emotions

She’s the type to get you hypnotized

Meanwhile my best friend was messing prescription telling instant lies

Yeah I saw it in his eyes

But I thought he’d make it out

Too caught up in my own world

While he went the route

Every night I’d think about my homie when I wrote a song

Another day pass by

Another where my hope was strong

Searching for that record deal

Used to lucid dream so much so I could see my vision in my sleep until its real

Like I said I went to college on a scholarship

Til that girl did me wrong felt like a hollow tip

Shot through my stomach

I used emotion to make songs cause otherwise I’d plummet

And instead of running from it

I would run directly add it

For this game I am an addict and my rise has been dramatic

I remember watching sway in the morning and wishing that is was me

Didn’t care for education or some worthless degree

I wanted to flee

So I would inside and write the truth

Only happiness I found was isolation in a booth

Long durations of my youth were spent mimicking the legends

Like The Beatles and sam cooke they felt like my brethren

I am destined for success yeah I’ve know since an adolescent

Since the first day I made a song never second guessed it

The day that I had opened up for DMX

Was the craziest experience

Mind went delirious

A thousand people in the room listened when I started rapping

Felt good to be the captain

Beat dropped I started snapping

Sets done they started clapping

I was elated

Never could be jaded

Every time I’m frustrated

I just pray to world and know I’m gonna be rewarded

I’ve stuck it out through thick and thin and never once aborted

Last summer I had moved out the house where I grew up

Cause a fight that blew up

Not the plan that I drew up

So I through all my belongings in my car and I drove away

Looking for a place to stay

Dark time in my life but I knew I’d find the way

My girl was always there

Life has been so up and down but all she ever did was a care

But she was at college so no I couldn’t stay with her

So I bounced around a couple couches trying to find a cure

Then this guy named Tim took me in he’s my friends dad

Didn’t wanna stay long always felt so bad

So I stayed with my homie tay and his grandmother

She held it down like no one other

Again I overstayed my welcome so I made it back to Tim’s place

I really felt at home there

Came into my own there

Was so rare

To find a time where I could have a father figure

Closest thing I’ve ever had now our bond is growing bigger

I love my mom yeah we talked every day

But I had to whats right she understood in a way

This is what i needed If I really wanna succeed

She’s kept me grounded to reality and planted the seed

So much greed in this world but she spoke very generous

Now I know my flow very venomous

And cause of that I got accepted to a school in harlem

That would let me work on music all the pieces fall together like its autumn

So I left Tim’s after half a year

I was ready for the city opportunity appear

Day one in the city I performed at a small club

Ripped apart my verses and they showed love

This dude came up to me and gave me his number and told me that his is name is

Johnny

And he wants to help my vision he could put me with somebody

But I thought that he was full of shit like everybody been before

But come to find his name is Johnny Nunez he had been on tour with jay z and

Rockefeller

Taken shots of every artist

Big name photographer come to learn he worked the hardest

He brought me up to a room of people to spit verse

All of em were asking who i was started moving with a buzz

This guy said he rich said he wants me on sway in the morning

And he’d make it happen

In a snap

Dreams are pouring in my lap

I know my path is rap not a question

I got there cause of what I earned and without a bad suggestion

So I went on sways show and spit a 5 minute verse

I rehearsed so much times

So many rhymes back to had to craft it to a dime

Got respect from sway

I can’t describe the way I felt that day

Fast forward I’m on MTV with rick ross it’s crazy as fuck

My dream is really gonna happen not a product of luck

Because i spent so many hours in my basement alone

Tryna craft the music that you listen to on your phone

And no I never thought to quit I knew where this go

But it takes a long time for the people to know

I’m my own man I got a plan that I’ll run with

Gotta make sure whatever you do you have fun with …

We are just a product of the person that we choose to be

And I’m a different man then the person that you used to see
