Slow It Down
Mike Posner
Slow It Down 歌詞
Alright
Right now
Im in prison and I think I built my own cell
身處自築監牢
Prophets speak softly, homie, they dont yell
先知輕聲細語,(說)兄弟,他們並不吶喊反抗
Only those that hear my music know my lower depths
歌從心生,可知我所屬深淵
The doer does, the knower rests
力行之人苦勞,於高之人坐享
The scholar learns, the sage forgets
新生求知,謂聖越迷
If I could wrap my head around it, then I might get a shot
濃須密發甚是可愛,那時應該留念一張
I get what I think about, whether I like it or not
做我所思,從心而願
When things go wrong, life doesnt stop
禍災難免,既往不咎,繼續向前
I need to quit pollutin my mind with sex and violence
不被性迷,思不求暴
The secret that Im seekin was left in silence
所尋之秘無聲遺忘
And my microphone is pointin Gods finger
創世之指還想怎改
Im a saint disguised as a pop singer
本為聖人喬裝歌手
Heres a fun fact
實屬有趣
Most people leave their potential untapped
潛能未啟即為常人
There will be more than camping gear to unpack
安起營裝僅是表象
Sometimes you gotta go there just so you could come back
真實含義即是於此思索便可重生
Slow it down
靜待其變
I still got the feeling, baby
感述吾成
Slow it down
慢積成質
No more runnin around
別再迷亂撒野
I say, slow it down
我說,緩汝心境
I still got the feeling, baby
感述吾成
Slow it down
靜待其成
No more runnin around
別再胡亂撒野
My foot hurts, I didnt get sleep
腳部疼痛使我難眠
My dad died, my horoscope aint in sync
思我逝父,估言占星不合
Im misunderstood and Twitter is ruthless
本無此意,網論無情
Uh-oh, I think my problems are excuses
我想為自錯開脫
For not bein who I know Iam
即漸迷失本心
Im 31, theres no one left to hold my hand
我已31,可卻無人可穩我手(安我心)
Though I believe I got someone watchin over me
儘管我知道有人對我有思有期
I believe Im exactly where Im supposed to be
可我極其明白該向何處
I believe that even when the road is bleak
我相信,即使前路未知荒涼
That these obstacles were set up just for me
設難礙我前行(但我定有可成)
In family matters, Im on some Urkel shit
我就像《family matters》中的Urkel古怪可人
Postin on a primo beat, this some full circle shit
我思一原始節拍(為新歌),可思來想去只不過是循環的廢話(所以我用了Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence)
I believe that no matter how high the hurdles get
我無畏障礙豈止天高
I can flip this whole thing into an internal win
我可扭轉戰局成自內勝利
Life aint meant to be a heavy thing
人生無需傷感無望
Met Ram Dass, he told me, 'Just love everything'
遊Ram Dass的書海,他說應愛一切
Fall in Michigan, theres wisdom in my looseleaf
我寫下所智於密歇根的秋季
For the first time, I feel like the true me
那是我第一次,明白何為真我
Slow it down
靜待其變
I still got the feeling, baby
感述吾成
Slow it down
慢積成質
No more runnin around
別再迷亂撒野
I say, slow it down
我說,緩汝心境
I still got the feeling, baby
感述吾成
Slow it down
靜待其成
No more runnin around
別在胡亂撒野
Some days, I cant get outta bed
有時,我懶於下床
Crippled by negative thoughts inside my head
消極墮落
Like why do I always stop before my limits?
為何我總在極限前退縮
And why am I only good at lovin people from a distance?
為何我只敢暗戀別人(而不表露本心)
Why am I so vain? Obsessed with fitness
為何我如此虛偽,痴迷於表象的健美
Why are the only people I'm around my assistants?
為何於我身邊之人僅是助手
But wait, the last time I felt this way
但等等,(別再如此墮落)就像上次所想的那樣
I bucked up, kept goin, and got my shit straight
(起身下床)挺直腰板,繼續前行,回歸正道
Diddy told me go with my heart
Diddy曾教我隨心而為
So my focus is art, not where I go on the chart
所以我要專注於音樂的藝術,而不是關注我身處榜單何處
The divine light in me loves to glow in the dark
我內在之美願在黑暗裡發散希望
If my life was a movie, wed be approaching the part
如果人生如戲,我似乎已經與其合一
Where the hero wins and learns dont
主角往那去贏,我不得而知
Chase what you already got and returns home
繼續追逐你已擁有的(並不斷成長),然後回家休整(擇日再戰)
Those who say, dont know, those who know, dont say
品足之人不解其意,明理之人無言已通
Im done walking with the herd, its time I go my own way
我跟隨芸芸眾生的腳步已然太久,是時候走走屬於我自己的路了
Slow it down
靜待其變
I still got the feeling, baby
感述吾成
Slow it down
慢積成質
No more runnin around
別再迷亂撒野
I say, slow it down
我說,緩汝心境
Yeah, I still got the feeling, baby
感述吾成
Slow it down
靜待其成
No more runnin around
別在胡亂撒野
Yeah
