Don't Look Down

I'm scared I'm wasting my time
我担心自己正虚度光阴
Scared I'm losing control of my life
我害怕对生活失控
I'm scared of commitment of calling anything mine
我不敢对任何东西宣告主权
I would be lying if I told you, "I'm fine"
若我对你说“我很好”，那只是个谎言
Serving these tables to put some food in my stomach
为别人服务上菜只为果腹
I'm tired of seeing my mom and say "Don't worry, it's coming"
我已经厌倦了每次见到母亲，还要对她说“别担心，我的时代会来临”
My heart is racing, I'm running to anything more than nothing
我的心如猛虎，我正朝着梦的方向狂奔
Drowning in debt and I'm trying to pull us above it
负债累累仍试图要摆脱这困境
Tell me everything will be okay
告诉我一切都会好起来的
Tell me why does everybody got to fade away
告诉我为什么每个人都要离我远去

我是否曾在你心上驻足？因你早已以我心为栖
Am I crossing your mind? 'Cause you been all up in mine
可若我看见你，我不知道该如何诉衷肠
But if I saw you, I don't know what I would say
我不想与谁为伴，我只想振作自己
Instead of being together, I need to get it together
与其以辞藻作证，不如用力生活
Instead of writing these letters, I want to live to remember
我比从前更好了吗？是啊，我怀疑自己从何得知
Am I better from the past? Yeah, I wonder what I'll know
当你为一个梦寝食难安，你就该放手了
Haunted by a dream is when you really let it go
我想万事万物都有其存在的道理
I guess things happen for a reason
但我绝不会将命运交予偶然
But I'ma never leave anything at chance
与世界初见我找寻上帝之手
At first glance I'm looking for God's hands
魔鬼望着我说，“兄弟，来跳舞”
The Devil's looking at me like, "Homie, come dance"
我的祖母日益病重，而我从未陪在她身旁

看啊，我的兄弟也迷失了自我，我猜这是什么家族基因
My grandma's getting sicker, I'm never there when I can be
人们告诉我音乐不应被当成主业
See, my brother feeling lost, I guess it runs in the family
可你并不理解我，又有什么资格对我评头论足？
People telling me this music should be a plan B
马不停蹄，人生来到二十岁
How could you judge me if you don't understand me?
命运在召唤，而我也让它放马过来
No breaks, one-twenty goin' in
如今我活在不努力就被淘汰的氛围中，每日我都问自己到底是谁
Destiny's calling, I'm like, "Baby, come on in"
你说那是平常人的生活，我说这是慢性自杀
Right now it feels like do-or-die, everyday it's, "Who am I?"
我能看清他们所不能，这就是我的能耐
You call it nine-to-five, man, I call it suicide
我宁愿居无定所身无分文也不要被冠上“幸福”的标签
I see what they can't see, this is all that I can be
他们不理解我，因为没人能
Rather be homeless and broke than be labeled as "happy"
最终万里挑一的都是那些圈外之人
They don't understand me, 'cause no one can stand me
我打赌输了一百刀
It's always the outsiders who end up outstanding
这不是什么天文数字，可这映射出我的为人

我想当时我并不明白这些
I lost a hundred dollars on a bet
当一切都是未知，不要把一切当作理所当然
It's not a lot of money, but it said a lot about me
骄傲是腐蚀这颗星球的毒
In the moment, guess I didn't understand it
贪婪是可取的，是啊，那就是他们给这个品质的光环
When nothing is certain, don't ever take it for granted
我们的世界观就是一团糟
Pride is a poison that infested our planet
拥有的不及我们应得就是我们对幸福的观念
Greed is okay, well, that's the way that they brand it
我还应该做些什么？
Our view of everything is such a mess
他们说，“遵循步骤，紧跟指导方针”
Having less than we deserve is our perception of happiness
若是我听了那番话，我也只能是个局外的小孩
What am I supposed to do?
你眼中的那是什么？我才不在乎你的眼线
They say, "Follow the steps, stick to the guidelines"
我从不在乎那些浮华
If I listen to that, I'm just a kid on the sideline
钱财让人们趋之若鹜
What's in your eyes? I don't care 'bout your eyeline
可若我得到了不义之财，我会毫不犹豫地将它归还
Never cared about all of that
幸福该是每个人都应得的东西
Money got people snappin' for their quarter back
可我们就是如此
If I get it, I'ma give it back
我曾在追星的途中迷失于黑暗
I feel like happiness is something everybody should have
汪洋中找寻真爱，这事儿就真的那么难吗？

或者只是想要个世界分崩离析时能陪在身边的人
But we are who we are
可每道伤疤都会让你的心更坚强
I've been lost in the dark, while I've been shooting for stars
坚持住，再奋斗久一些
Looking for love, like is it really that hard?
每晚我在擦地板的时候思索着人生
Or just have someone who's there when it's all falling apart
就在那时你能感受到自己的脆弱和饥饿
But every scar only makes your heart stronger
这种感觉使我痛苦，同时也驱使我前进
Hold on, just fight a little longer
有时悔恨比回忆更多，就让它去吧，这就是生活的本质
I ponder these lines while mopping floors every night
过去并不决定我是谁，我只想尽全力
That's when you feel the fatigue and all your hunger
若我不付出，又怎么会有收获？
It's been killing me, keep going what they're telling me
我环顾四周，看到的是青春的消逝
More regrets than memories, sometimes you gotta let it be
当你捡起一个空瓶，让我为你注满真理
The past ain't ahead of me, I got to give my best
过去的我就像你们所有人，天不怕地不怕好像没什么可失去

当所有人都安于现状，没有人会想做那个牺牲奉献的人
How do I make change if I don't give you my two cents?
请涉足我的思想领域，我的心做先驱
I look around, I see the dying of youth
过去终究是过去，可最近我却沉浸于过去
While you're picking up a bottle, let me pour you the truth
我正找寻着当初我用来获得幸福的东西，那些被离开的人们带走的东西
I used to be like all of you, like you got nothing to lose
而世人总是喜欢看你崩溃的样子，因为你的所得对你憎恶
Nobody want a commitment when everybody's been used
就好像我永远都成不了我想成为的人，这世界就是一条单行道
Step in my conscience, my heart is the pilot
告诉你怎么活，告诉你这样做会带来的必然效益
The past is behind you, but lately I've been behind it
就像戒指、夏日无意的调情，并不是所有事都是所见即所得
I'm finding I've been placed in happiness in people who leave
所以别再接收他们对于幸福制造的假象
And they love it when you're broken, hate you when you achieve
因为幸福并不是用钱能买来的东西
It's like I can never be me, the world is just a routine
爱也不会藏身一个深夜的舞会
Telling you how to live and the certain value it brings
我望着天空对天道，“再给我一次机会”
Like rings, summer flings, things ain't what they seem
我已经厌倦了只是坐在房间，知道我能做到却不迈步
So, don't you ever buy the happiness they sell on the screen
你不做，就不会有结果，看看你正追寻着什么

为梦想做出抉择，就好像我曾经的女孩和音乐
'Cause happiness ain't a store bought can
要不失去她，要不失去音乐，可我的心系于音乐
And love isn't found in just a one-night dance
若我不再做音乐，我将成为行尸，所以我做了选择，我选择了音乐
I'm looking at the sky like, "Give me one more chance"
我想要弄清楚，可这甚至和我们的感情无关
I'm tired of sitting in my room like I know I can
我只想要做出成绩，这样我的孩子们都能以我而傲
Nothing's done until you do it, just look at what I'm pursuing
我只想要告诉所有人，生活并不是只有钱满箱
To die like what you're doing, my girl is 'cause of my music
走出去吧创造价值，别放弃理想
It was lose her or lose it, my heart's in the music
我写下的每一句都是为了提醒你们要坚强，要站起来
If I didn't, I'd be dead, so I went and I choose it
爱情不过是一份出价，而我们都无法给予足够多的东西

若没有人愿意抬头看，那么立足顶端又有什么意义呢？
Trying to figure it out, and this ain't even about us
所以啊，抬头看，抬起头来
I'm trying to be something more, so that my kids can be proud of
别向下看
I'm trying to show everybody there's not much worth in these dollars
抬头看，抬起头来
Out here making a difference, don't you give up
别向下看
Every line that I'm writing is just for you to get up
别低头
Love is barely an offer, yeah, we don't give it enough
Man, what's the point of the top if nobody wants to look up?
So, look up, look up
Don't look down
Look up, look up
Don't look down
Don't look down
