Текст песни The Blind Spot (Paradox & Imperial) с переводом

Yo, the blind spot

Brought to you by Paradox and K.I.N.E.T.I.K

Imperial on production

Listen…

You hear the influx of cuts promoting sex, drugs, rape, and murder

No limit to the nihilism, we just take it further

Blood is spilling from the pen to the pavement

And yet we dismiss it as just plain entertainment

«Black Lives Matter.» Before it was a slogan

You never spoke or even wrote with any pride or purpose

No remorse or emotion

What about the black people you’ve killed for real and inside your verses?

You’re a hypocrite, but I’m the biggest one

Cuz every time I heard your death threats

Coming through my headsets I expressed, «This is fun.»

I was desensitized to genocide, but when a friend had died

I chalked it up as just a dumb mistake

I wish the sound of all them shots had come from one of the tapes

But when we put him in the ground, it felt like time stopped

Cuz life was imitating art, but my heart was the blind spot

Hook:

(Paradox)

Spit that self-righteousness, but every minute I spent writing this

Could’ve been with my wife and kids. Yeah, that’s the blind spot

That’s the blind spot. That’s the blind spot

Open your eyes and then you’ll see the blind spot

(Paradox)

Been known to explode at random when my girls throw a tantrum

Which shows I hold to lower standards. Yeah, that’s the blind spot

That’s the blind spot. That’s the blind spot

Open your eyes and then you’ll see the blind spot

(Paradox)

Oh, you the Christian confessing how blessed is His way

All about that outcast, the wretched, and dismayed

How our wages of sin He claimed as His debt to pay

That is unless you’re gay. Yeah, that’s the blind spot

So you’re the chauvinistic pig

Who disrespected his woman and hit his kids

You’re blaming every one else, but sadly it’s you

Now your kids are getting grown and they’re dealing

With their daddy issues. And that’s the blind spot

(Paradox)

Oh, you the conscious rapper on that elevate your mind tip

Fighting through non-violence, while enslaved to nice kicks

With no thought for the costs of sweatshop labor’s tight fist

Despite what the price is. Yeah, that’s the blind spot

So you’re the healthy advocate that lives in the gym

Getting big and trim with cardio and double figure sets

Fruit and veg in effect. But so is your addiction

To liquor and cigarettes. So I guess that’s a blind spot

Hook:

(Paradox)

Been known to explode at random when my girls throw a tantrum

Which shows I hold to lower standards. Yeah, that’s the blind spot

That’s the blind spot. That’s the blind spot

Open your eyes and then you’ll see the blind spot

(Paradox)

Spit that self-righteousness, but every minute I spent writing this

Could’ve been with my wife and kids. Yeah, that’s the blind spot

That’s the blind spot. That’s the blind spot

Open your eyes and then you’ll see the blind spot

Verse 3 (Paradox):

Not a fan of Pac, yet my man’s got me peeping «Keep Ya Head Up.»

Thinking it’s fresh, but then the CD proceeds to the next cut

And gone is the empathetic message to spread love

Back with the exact symptoms that had these women left stuck

So I been reflecting on the mess of disconnections

That infect our perspectives, yet are never questioned

Like my Christian brethren, reppin' that «Prince of Peace,»

But boosting UFC like brutality’s meant to be

Where men turn into beasts and beat each other senseless

But we turn the other cheek and seek to defeat our self-interests?

Plus, it’s offensive to cuss, cuz God forbids it?

But we gossip with a vengeance and mock the optimistic

It comes across pretentious and hypocritical

Like dismissing the miserable, while insisting on rituals

Now, I ain’t saying your peripheral’s hazy, but mine’s not

I got plenty conflicting visuals caught in my blind spot

Cuts (Bombeardo)
