这几天听到的歌词。Macklemore的wings。
同他的淘宝之歌thrift shop一样，这首大概就是我的滑板鞋。
MACKLEMORE LYRICS
"Wings"翅膀
(feat. Ryan Lewis)
I was seven years old, when I got my first pair
在我七岁的时候，我得到了自己的第一双战靴
And I stepped outside
我跑出门外
And I was like, momma, this air bubble right here, it's gonna make me fly
那就像是“妈妈，我脚下的这块气垫，将让我展翅翱翔”
I hit that court, and when I jumped, I jumped, I swear I got so high
我冲到球场，拼了命的跳，跳，跳，我发誓我跳的超级高
I touched the net, mom I touched the net, this is the best day of my life
我摸到了网，妈妈，我摸到了球网，不吹不黑这是我这辈子最美的一天
Air Max's were next,
接下来是air max
That air bubble, that mesh
这露骨的气垫，这反光的网眼
The box, the smell, the stuffin', the tread, in school
这鞋盒，这骚味，这填充纸团，这鞋垫， 我自信在这学校里
I was so cool
我是最屌
I knew that I couldn't crease 'em
我知道我不能操烂它
My friends couldn't afford 'em
我的朋友都买不起
Four stripes on their Adidas
还穿着四道杠和阿迪王
On the court I wasn't the best, but my kicks were like the pros
在球场上我不算最强，不过我的战靴独领风骚
Yo, I stick out my tongue so everyone could see that logo
呦！我拉长鞋舌就为了让你们看见那个勾
Nike Air Flight, but bad was so dope
nike air flight， 真操蛋的帅
And then my friend Carlos' brother got murdered for his Fours*, whoa
但是我的朋友c却因为阿迪王被无尽羞辱......
See he just wanted a jump shot, but they wanted his Starter coat, though
他只是为了一个跳投，而别人却冲着潮流
Didn't wanna get caught, from Genesee Park to Othello
不想被追上，从g跑去o
You could clown for those Pro Wings, with the Velcro
你可以嘲笑这些假货连鞋带都没有
Those were not tight
它们不紧也不合脚
I was trying to fly without leaving the ground,
我想要飞却离不开地面
Cause I wanted to be like Mike, right
没错我就是想成为mj，没错
Wanted to be him, I wanted to be that guy, I wanted to touch the rim
想成为他，想成为那个家伙，想抓个框
I wanted to be cool, and I wanted to fit in,
我也想追上潮流，时尚世上最时尚
I wanted what he had, America, it begins
我想要他有的一切，美国梦，起飞
[Chorus:]
I want to fly
Can you take me far away?
Give me a star to reach for
Tell me what it takes
And I'll go so high
I'll go so high
My feet won't touch the ground
I stitch my wings
And pull the strings
I bought these dreams
That all fall down
We want what we can't have, commodity makes us want it
无法心想事成，就像买不起货架上的
So expensive, damn, I just got to flaunt it
真他妈贵，我必须好好炫耀
Got to show 'em, so exclusive, this that new shit
秀给他们看看，如此独一无二，新的不行
A hundred dollars for a pair of shoes I would never hoop in
我舍不得穿，这上百刀的战靴
Look at me, look at me, I'm a cool kid
看着我，看着我，我多帅
I'm an individual, yeah, but I'm part of a movement
我不可分割 但是我的一部分告诉我
My movement told me be a consumer and I consumed it
我独一无二 万里挑一 所以我必须买，我一定要买
They told me to just do it, I listened to what that swoosh said
他们让我不要犹豫 他们说的都是真理
Look at what that swoosh did
你知道最后怎样
See it consumed my thoughts
他俘获我的思维
Are you stupid, don't crease 'em, just leave 'em in that box
你傻逼了么，不要弄脏了，就让他们躺会鞋盒
Strangled by these laces, laces I can barely talk
我无法说话，无法挣脱锁着我喉咙的鞋带
That's my air bubble and I'm lost, if it pops
这是我的气垫，爆了我就炸了
We are what we wear, we wear what we are
我就是鞋 鞋就是我
But see I look inside the mirror and think Phil Knight tricked us all
但每当我撞鞋了，我都在想这货是不是搞错了
Will I stand for change, or stay in my box
我要改变还是滚回自己的鞋盒
These Nikes help me define me, but I'm trying to take mine, off
这些鞋帮助我定义了我，但我决定找回自己，然后展翅翱翔
[Chorus:]
I want to fly
Can you take me far away?
Give me a star to reach for
Tell me what it takes
And I'll go so high
I'll go so high
My feet won't touch the ground
I stitch my wings
And pull the strings
I bought these dreams
That all fall down
It started out, with what I wear to school
慢慢他们也穿我曾穿过的去学校
That first day, like these are what make you cool
第一天，也想我当年那样酷毙了
And this pair, this would be my parachute
而这一双，就像是降落伞
So much more than just a pair of shoes
而不仅仅是一双鞋
Nah, this is what I am
这就是我
What I wore, this is the source of my youth
这就是我年幼时的灵魂
This dream that they sold to you
这是他们卖你的梦想
For a hundred dollars and some change
一百多刀随着消费观
Consumption is in the veins
变了又变
And now I see it's just another pair of shoes
而现在的我，只看清这就是一双鞋
