You good T-Minus
T-Minus 近来可好
Niggas been countin' me out
有些人总想排挤我
I'm countin' my bullets I'm loadin' my clips
我清点弹药 装弹上膛
I'm writin' down names I'm makin' a list
写下名字 列好名单
I'm checkin' it twice and I'm gettin' 'em hit
反复核对 一举歼灭
The real ones been dyin' the fake ones is lit
如今这世道好人苟延残喘 恶人猖狂得势
The game is off balance I'm back on my ****
音乐圈再无公平可言 我要坚持我的风格
The Bentley is dirty my sneakers is dirty
我勤俭节约 不管宾利还是鞋子 都会物尽其用
But that's how I like it you all on my d**k
我就喜欢这样 你们管不着
I'm all in my bag this hard as it get
我沉浸在自己的世界里 这可不容易做到
I do not snort powder I might take a sip
我不用鼻子** 我用嘴巴尝
I might hit the blunt but I'm liable to trip
我可能会接触** 但我更想从中获利
I ain't poppin' no pill but you do as you wish
我从不吃那些药片 不过你们随意
I roll with some fiends I love 'em to death
我跟着一些朋友瞎混 我爱死他们了
I got a few mil' but not all of them rich
我身价几百万 但有些人不像我这么有钱
What good is the bread if my niggas is broke
要是他们变得穷困潦倒 就会知道还是面包最有用
What good is first class if my niggas can't sit
要是他们无立足之地时 就会明白还是地位最重要
That's my next mission that's why I can't quit
这是我的下一个目标 所以我不能放弃
Just like LeBron get my niggas more chips
我要像LeBron James一样 给弟兄们拿更多的冠军 赚更多的钱
Just put the Rollie right back on my wrist
劳力士手表戴上手腕
This watch came from Drizzy he gave me a gift
这块表是Drake送我的礼物
Back when the rap game was prayin' I'd diss
之前在说唱里 有人还以为我在骂他
They act like two legends cannot coexist
人们都以为我们是一山不容二虎
But I'd never beef with a nigga for nothin'
但我绝不是那种无事生非的人
If I smoke a rapper it's gon' be legit
要是我向某个人发难 那绝对是有原因的
It won't be for clout it won't be for fame
但不是为了影响力和名气
It won't be 'cause my **** ain't sellin' the same
不是因为我的唱片销量不如别人
It won't be to sell you my latest lil' sneakers
不是为了把我新设计的运动鞋卖给你
It won't be 'cause some nigga slid in my lane
更不是因为有人开车挡了我的道
Everything grows it's destined to change
一切都在成长 改变在所难免
I love you lil' niggas I'm glad that you came
各位兄弟 我爱你们 感谢你们的到来
I hope that you scrape every dollar you can
希望你们今天都能有不错的收获
I hope you know money won't erase the pain
我希望你们明白 金钱不能消除痛苦
To the OGs I'm thankin' you now
对于前辈们 我感激不尽
Was watchin' you when you was pavin' the ground
在你们打拼的时候 我一直都关注着你们
I copied your cadence I mirrored your style
我模仿你们的节奏和音乐风格
I studied the greats I'm the greatest right now
我向伟人学习 如今我也成了伟人
**** if you feel me you ain't got a choice
如果你听到我的音乐 肯定会不由自主地爱上我
Now I ain't do no promo still made all that noise
我的唱片从来不做宣传 照样能引起轰动
This year gon' be different I set my intentions
今年肯定会有所不同 我定下了目标
I promise to slap all that hate out your voice
我承诺过要让那些怀恨者不好过
Niggas been countin' me out
