The Monster

There aint a monster thats under my bed
因為我與床下的魔鬼成為摯友
aint friends with no voices inside of my head
我已習以為常，腦海中的另一個聲音
Youre trying to shake me, stop holding your breath
你想要拯救我，還是放棄這個念頭吧【來自俗語Dont holding your breath有些事永遠不會發生】
And you think its crazy, yeah you think its crazy
你們都覺得我瘋，呵呵覺得我的確瘋了
I wanted the dream... I prayed God would use me
我曾經想要成名，祈禱上帝我受到重用
Oh well, I guess rap cant be choosy
好吧！看來乞丐沒有施捨的權利
Wanted to receive attention for my music
只是想著我的音樂能得到更多的關注
Wanted to be an example, so excuse me
想歌曲能夠成為經典，請原諒我
For wanting my cake, and eat it too, and wanting it both ways
想要出名的同時，也想要個人隱私得到尊重【出自俗語Cant have your cake and eat it too二者不可兼得】
Fame may be a balloon cause my haters inflated
名氣就像吹氣球，吹起不斷自負的膨脹感
When I blew; see, and it was confusing
名氣越來越大，我同樣逐漸感到困惑
Cause all I wanted to do is be the Bruce Lee of loose leaf
因為我只想在作詞領域，成為像李小龍一樣的泰斗【loose leaf一種三孔筆記本的紙張】
Abused ink, used it as a tool when I blew steam
把墨水噹做假想敵，用文字發洩我當時的不滿情緒
(Ooh!) Be the best that I could be
噢，我要盡我所能做到最好
But with what I learned when I got it was bittersweet
放棄的同時，也給我帶來了苦中帶樂的收穫
It was like dreaming a new dream
這就像做場夢，一個新起點
Ironic cause I think Im getting so quick I dont even think
真是諷刺名利讓我沖昏，需要心理醫生把我縮回去
they aint making me lose sleep, its: one sheep, two sheep
失眠開始整夜陪伴我：一隻羊、兩隻羊...
flowin cuckoo and cooky as Kool Keith
神經越來越分裂，就像當時的Kool Keith
But Im actually closer than you think because there...
但我這種怪誕的病情，遠遠超出了你們的想像
Cause there aint a monster thats under my bed
因為我與床下的魔鬼成為摯友

Now I aint much of a poet but I know somebody
我不像一個詩人，但我一個曾經我認識的人
Once told me to seize the moment and dont squander it
他教導我：珍惜現在的每一分鐘，時間不是用來揮霍的
Cause you never know when it all could be over tomorrow
因為凡事都不可預見，可能明天一切都會結束
So I keep pondering
所以我堅持我的音樂
sometimes I wonder
有時候我也在想
Where these dreams come from
這些奇怪的東西從何冒出
(Yeah, ponder it, do you want that?
（好好考慮一下，這不是你想要的嗎？

right to memory lane

if you dont accept youve went your farthest yet
倘若你無法接受可能不會在這條路走的很遠
you fall, dont break step ya get started
縱然你摔倒了，也不能阻止你的腳步，收拾心情重新出發
cause the very holding you back is inside ya head
因為它會在你的腦海裡壓抑你，讓你無法前行
and as for me - Ill be doing my thing
所以對於我來說——只管做好自己的事
