原歌词
[00:22.46] Yeah
[00:24.01] Lately I feel like the devil's watching, he taunts me
[00:26.74] I been having these thoughts in my head, they haunt me
[00:29.53] I been trying to keep my focus but I keep having this dream
[00:32.16] That I lost my life when I got shot in 2015, and
[00:35.70] I walk around my city and no one sees me
[00:38.33] I used to think, "If I died it would be so easy"
[00:41.24] Well, here I am, feel like everyone left me
[00:44.18] Now I'm back at home and everything feels so empty
[00:47.20] Upstairs I see the girl I love crying alone
[00:49.73] I see the cuts on her wrists, she's scared of dying alone
[00:52.74] I said her name softly, I swear that she looked right at me
[00:55.97] That's when I tried to walk up to her,
[00:57.65] But she walked past me, damn
[00:59.50] At my funeral, they dressed in all black
[01:01.92] Everybody mourning my death while I stand in the back
[01:04.53] And I look at they faces, in they eyes the pain is so clear
[01:07.40] But the people that I called my friends, they ain't even here
[01:10.64] Crazy how quickly they forget, instead of mourning my death
[01:13.64] They fighting over who gets the house
[01:15.77] And who gets the checks, damn
[01:17.12] I gave my heart to these people throughout these songs
[01:19.70] And it's sad to know that
[01:21.00] None of it matters now that I'm gone, damn
[01:42.12] Yeah, yeah
[01:45.51] All my albums are on the charts,
[01:47.69] And all the radios wanna play me
[01:49.64] I guess it took me to die for them to appreciate me
[01:52.49] I see them posting and saying how much they miss me
[01:55.44] But back when I was alive
[01:56.63] And depressed they ain't never hit me
[01:58.48] Before I died they all used to hate me, but now it's funny
[02:01.31] They post pictures,
[02:02.21] They all tryin' to claim me but never loved me
[02:04.21] Spit on my name when I was alive, I'll never forget
[02:06.89] It's sad that they wait till you die to show they respect, but
[02:10.48] Finally all the people who I looked up to
[02:13.21] Say how they respect me, saying they woulda loved to
[02:16.00] Meet me in the past, but it's too late for that now
[02:18.81] The way these people used to treat me,
[02:20.29] They can't take it back now
[02:21.77] People tell stories about how we were close
[02:23.92] And how they would ride for me
[02:25.08] I know I'm gone, but that energy they can't hide from me
[02:28.11] Award shows and these red carpets the same
[02:31.05] They make these tributes to my name,
[02:32.19] But back then they never invited me
[02:34.03] Look, I'm at the Grammys,
[02:35.43] I wish I could tell my mom I made it
[02:37.20] It only took a hole in my head to be nominated
[02:40.04] I looked for love from these people but all along
[02:42.71] What they said was true,
[02:43.64] They don't love you until you gone, ****
[02:46.14] But the truth is this life never goes the way you plan it
[02:48.96] I guess the point of this song
[02:50.54] Is don't take your life for granted
[02:52.12] And appreciate people while they still here
[02:54.48] And before you judge someone take a look in the mirror
[02:57.24] Because at any moment anything could happen
[03:00.33] Nothing is ever promised, but you can just imagine
[03:03.22] How it would be, so I give the type of love I want for me
[03:06.38] 'Cause one day it'll be my last
[03:07.69] And it won't just be a dream, I mean
[03:10.40]
歌词翻译
[00:22.46] Yeah
[00:24.01] 最近我总感觉恶魔在注视着我 嘲笑着我
[00:26.74] 这些想法萦绕于我的耳畔
[00:29.53] 我尝试着集中注意力保持清醒 但我还是总做着这样一个梦
[00:32.16] 梦见在2015年我中枪身亡
[00:35.70] 梦见我在城市里游荡 但没人看得见我
[00:38.33] 我常常想: 如果没有我 凡事都会很顺利吧
[00:41.24] 我在这里 感觉所有人都离开了我
[00:44.18] 现在我回到了家中 一切都显得那么空洞
[00:47.20] 我看见我所爱的女孩在楼上独自哭泣
[00:49.73] 我看见了她手腕上的割痕 看见了她对无声无息地死去的害怕
[00:52.74] 我柔声呼唤她的名字 我很肯定她也看向了我
[00:55.97] 但当我走向她时
[00:57.65] 她却从我身旁走过 哎。
[00:59.50] 在我的葬礼上 他们着一身黑色
[01:01.92] 所有人都在哀悼我的逝世 我站在阴影里
[01:04.53] 我看向他们的脸 他们眼里的痛苦多么显而易见
[01:07.40] 但那些我称之为朋友的人却不在席上
[01:10.64] 太扯了吧 他们忘的可真快 而没有来哀悼我
[01:13.64] 他们忙着争论房子归谁
[01:15.77] 他们忙着争夺继承权
[01:17.12] 我通过这些歌来将我的心意传达给这些人
[01:19.70] 但残酷的是——
[01:21.00] 我不在人世了 那就当什么也没发生吧
[01:42.12] Yeah yeah
[01:45.51] 我的所有专辑都很火
[01:47.69] 所有电台都想放我的歌
[01:49.64] 我猜 为了让他们能赞颂我 我得死一死
[01:52.49] 我看见他们为我写报道 说他们多么想念我
[01:55.44] 但当时光回溯到我还活着的时候
[01:56.63] 那时他们从不会关注我 这实在令人沮丧啊
[01:58.48] 在我死之前他们都讨厌我 但现在态度却转变了 真有趣呵
[02:01.31] 他们都想着发一些
[02:02.21] 和我有关的推文 但他们从未真正爱过我
[02:04.21] 当我尚在人世时他们唾弃我 我是永远不会忘记的了
[02:06.89] 但真令人难过了 他们等到我死后才表达对我的敬意
[02:10.48] 最后那些我所尊敬的人
[02:13.21] 说着他们有多尊敬我 说着他们多希望
[02:16.00] 能在以前就认识我 但现在一切都太晚了
[02:18.81] 这些人曾经是怎样对待我的啊
[02:20.29] 现在他们是收不回去的
[02:21.77] 他们讲述我们以往有多亲近
[02:23.92] 直言他们能怎样为我做牛做马
[02:25.08] 我知道我已不在人世 但他们充沛的精力是瞒不过我的
[02:28.11] 他们活跃在颁奖典礼 这些红毯还是一样的
[02:31.05] 他们对我的名致以敬意
[02:32.19] 但在曾经他们从未想起过我
[02:34.03] 看着——格莱美在宣读我的名字
[02:35.43] 我希望我能告诉我的妈妈 我成功了
[02:37.20] 想被他人认可只需向我的脑袋开一枪
[02:40.04] 我从那些人身上寻找爱
[02:42.71] 但一直以来他们说的其实都对:
[02:43.64] 直到你离开人世 他们才会分一点爱给你
[02:46.14] 但事实是 生活总是跌宕起伏 扑朔迷离
[02:48.96] 我猜这首歌是想告诉人们
[02:50.54] 在生活中不要总是想当然
[02:52.12] 要多多赞美身边的人
[02:54.48] 在你批判别人之前先从镜子里看看自己
[02:57.24] 这首歌这样说是因为 意外随时会发生
[03:00.33] 没有任何事是被保证的 但还是可以幻想一下
[03:03.22] 怎样才能让它被保证呢 所以我选择自爱
[03:06.38] 我这样想是因为 总有一天我会死去
[03:07.69] 也因为上述的一切不只是一场梦那么简单
