他在业界赫赫有名 [00:00:29] And we can't look away [00:00:30] 我们怎能视而不见 [00:00:30] Due to the days that he caught our hearts [00:00:32] 因为他的音乐让我们深深着迷 [00:00:32] He's fallin' apart but we deny it [00:00:34]

但近来的事实证明了一切 [00:00:40] It's been hard for him to look into the mirror lately [00:00:43] 他很难真正审视自己 [00:00:43] There was a time when this ni**a was my hero maybe [00:00:46] 曾几何时 我把他视为我的偶像 [00:00:46] That's the reason why his fall from grace is hard to take [00:00:48] 或许这就是为何他堕落后再难振作 [00:00:48] 'Cause I believed him when he said his sh*t was purer and he [00:00:51] 因为我深信不疑 当他说他的音乐都是自己创作的 [00:00:51] The type of ni**a swear he real but all around him's fake [00:00:53] 他发誓他一直展示真实的自己 但他周围的人恰然相反 [00:00:53] The women the dickriders you know the yes men [00:00:56] 他身边的女人们 你知道 还有那些唯命是从的人 他们都无比虚伪 [00:00:56] Nobody with the balls to say somethin' to contest him [00:00:59] 当他地位显赫 周围的人只会对他言听计从 [00:00:59] So he grows out of control [00:01:00] 所以他越发狂妄自大 [00:01:00] Into the person that he truly was all along it's startin' to show [00:01:03] 变成现在这样 其实他一直如此 如今暴露一切 [00:01:03] Damn wonder what happened [00:01:05] 该死 事情怎么会发展到如此地步 [00:01:05] Maybe it's my fault for idolizing niggas

the fame the acclaim the respect that's been had [00:01:51] 他想扬名天下 想备受瞩目 想要赢得更多的敬仰 [00:01:51] By all the legends so every time I see him he stressin' [00:01:54] 每次我看见他 他都会再三强调 他会重奏所有经典之作 [00:01:54] Talkin' 'bout niggas don't f**k with him the sh*t is depressin' [00:01:57] 他一旦开口就滔滔不绝 伙计们都不搭理他 结果也不尽人意 [00:01:57] And I know he so bitter he can't see his own blessings [00:02:00] 我知道他痛苦不堪 他根本看不到自己的幸运之处 [00:02:00] Goddamn ni**a you too blind to see you got fans ni**a [00:02:03] 该死 伙计 你已被名利蒙蔽了双眼 看不到你也拥有很多粉丝 [00:02:03] And a platform to make a classic rap song [00:02:05] 你拥有很好的平台可以大展身手
