All My Life
歌词:
[English]
Durkio told me he been on some positive shit, yeah, yeah
Lately, I just wanna show up and body some shit, yeah, yeah
Always been a lil’ mathematician, lately it’s cash I’m gettin’
Got me losin’ count of these bags, I’ve been movin’ too fast
Hard times don’t last, ‘member when cops harrassed
Talkin’ out my ass, boy, you ain’t shit but a bitch with a badge
All my life (All my life)
They been tryin’ to keep me down (They been tryin’ to keep me down)
All this time (All this time)
Never thought I would make it out (Never thought I’d make it out)
They couldn’t break me, they couldn’t break me (No, no)
They couldn’t take me, they couldn’t take me (No)
All my life (All my life)
They been tryin’ to keep me down (They been tryin’ to keep me down)
I decided I had to finish, but the media called me a menace
I done sat with the mayor and politicians, I’m tryna change the image
You can’t blame my past no more, I come from the trenches
Some said I’d never be a superstar, but I know I’m different (No, no, no)
I’m The Voice, but the system ain’t give me a choice
Know some people that’s still undeployed
I know a felon who tryna get FOID
Child support your only support
For a visit, I’m goin’ through courts
Went to jail, they was chainin’ me up
And you know that I’m famous as fuck
See how you gon’ joke about stimulus?
But they really had came in the clutch
I know some kids wanna hurt theyself
Stop tryna take drugs, I refer to myself
Tryna better myself, tryna better my health but
All my life (All my life)
They been tryin’ to keep me down (They been tryin’ to keep me down)
All this time (All this time)
Never thought I would make it out (Never thought I’d make it out)
They couldn’t break me, they couldn’t break me (No, no)
They couldn’t take me, they couldn’t take me (No)
All my life (All my life)
They been tryin’ to keep me down (They been tryin’ to keep me down, yeah)
First generation ghetto nigga
Cold world, hello niggas
Made it out the city with my head on straight
niggas keep shootin’ up the lead out
Young Jordan Peele, gotta get out
But the shit that I spit out
Is a cheat code like I’m facin’ a RICO and how a nigga put a hit out
And another one, and, and another one
I got like a hundred of ’em
‘Bout to lap niggas so they think they ahead of me, but I’m really in front of them
Now some of them fumblin’ they bags
fuckin’ up the little crumbs that they had
A reminder to humble yourself, this shit could be gone in an instant
Me, I’m runnin’ long distance
All pistons firin’
I be stuck between maybe retirin’ and feelin’ like I’m just not hittin’ my prime
These days seein’ rappers be dyin’, way before they even gettin’ they shine
I never even heard of lil’ buddy
‘Til somebody murdered lil’ buddy
Now I’m on the phone, searchin’ lil’ buddy name
Got ’em playin’ his tunes, all day in my room
Thinkin’, “Damn, this shit is wicked, to get they name buzzin’ some niggas just gotta go lay in a tomb”
And media thirsty for clicks
I got a new rule If you ain’t never posted a rapper when he was alive
You can’t post about him after he get hit
It’s simple, it’s the principle
On any tempo, I’m invincible
Don’t even rap, I just vent to you
I rather that than an interview most days
fuck ’em all like I’m goin’ through a ho phase
Young nigga shoot out the whip like road rage
I pray all of my dawgs stay so paid
And the only thing that kill ’em is old age
All my life (All my life)
They been tryin’ to keep me down (They been tryin’ to keep me down)
All this time (All this time)
Never thought I would make it out (Never thought I’d make it out)
They couldn’t break me, they couldn’t break me (No, no)
They couldn’t take me, they couldn’t take me (No)
All my life (All my life)
They been tryin’ to keep me down (They been tryin’ to keep me down)

语法:
-
Durkio told me he **been** on some positive shit, yeah, yeah
➔ 现在完成进行时 (非正式使用)
➔ 虽然语法上类似于现在完成进行时('has/have been' + verb-ing),但它是一种口语化和简化的用法。'Been' 表示一个从过去开始并持续到现在的动作。 这可能意味着该动作是最近发生的、正在进行中的或具有持久的影响。 正确的时态应该是“has been”,但为了简单和风格而省略了。
-
Always **been** a lil’ mathematician, lately it’s cash I’m gettin’
➔ 现在完成时(非正式)/主谓倒装
➔ 再次,简化的现在完成时。 “Always been”表示在相当长的一段时间内都正确的特征。 “Lately it's cash I'm gettin'”:通常的词序是“Lately, I'm getting cash”。 倒装强调“cash”。
-
Hard times don’t last, ‘**member** when cops harrassed
➔ “remember”的缩写形式
➔ “Member”是“remember”的俚语或口语缩写形式。 它被用于简洁并适应歌曲的节奏。
-
Talkin’ out my ass, boy, you ain’t shit but a bitch with a badge
➔ 俚语/非正式语言
➔ 这行包含非常非正式和冒犯性的语言。 “Talkin' out my ass”表示胡说八道或说谎。 “You ain't shit”表示你一文不值。 这句话具有攻击性和贬义。
-
I decided I had to finish, but the media called me a menace
➔ 过去时/过去时
➔ 这两个从句都使用过去时态(“decided”,“called”)来描述过去完成的动作。
-
Some said I’d never be a superstar, but I know I’m different
➔ 条件句 (would + 不定式) / 现在简单时
➔ “I’d never be”是“I would never be”的缩写形式,使用条件“would”来表达一种假设的或过去的未来情况。“I know I'm different”使用现在简单时来陈述当前的信念或事实。
-
Know some people that’s still undeployed
➔ 关系代词省略的关系从句/非标准动词变位
➔ “Know some people that’s still undeployed”:关系代词“who”被省略。 从语法上讲,说“Know some people who are still undeployed”是正确的。“That's”代替“who are”或“that are”是一种常见的口语说法。
