And they offered me a million dollar deal and had the check ready, said I wouldn't be able to use my name.

I was fighting my brother because, "man, you should have took the million dollars," and no, what you think I'm worth?
我当时和兄弟争吵着“兄弟,你本应该得到这百万美元的”,但我说“不会,你觉得我值得么?”
If this white man offer me a million dollars, I gotta be worth forty or fifty or ten or something.

Which they said couldn't be done.

Had twenty records on the top Billboard at one time for an independent company.

是有多黑心啊(买榜行为?)
You know, going to the white lady house where my grandmother lived there

And say, look, you don't have to work here no more, big mama, we got more money than the people on St. Charles St.
她却说:“你看,你完全不必在这做得这么轻松,你们得到得钱比在圣查尔斯街工作的人还多”
And I took that anger and said I'ma put it into my music.
所以我非常生气的跟他说,我要把这件事写进我的歌里。
I tell people all the time, if you don't understand my record, you don't understand me, so this is not for you
我总是老生常谈的说起,如果你不懂我的专辑,你也就不会了解我,因为这不是为你而创作的。
