Don't Look Down

I'm scared I'm wasting my time
我擔心自己正虛度光陰
Scared I'm losing control of my life
我害怕對生活失控
I'm scared of commitment of calling anything mine
我不敢對任何東西宣告主權
I would be lying if I told you, 'I'm fine'
若我對你說“我很好”，那隻是個謊言
Serving these tables to put some food in my stomach
為別人服務上菜只為果腹
I'm tired of seeing my mom and say 'Don't worry, it's coming'
我已經厭倦了每次見到母親，還要對她說“別擔心，我的時代會來臨”
My heart is racing, I'm running to anything more than nothing
我的心如猛虎，我正朝著夢的方向狂奔
Drowning in debt and I'm trying to pull us above it
負債累累仍試圖要擺脫這困境
Tell me everything will be okay
告訴我一切都會好起來的
Tell me why does everybody got to fade away
告訴我為什麼每個人都要離我遠去

我是否曾在你心上駐足？因你早已以我心為棲
Am I crossing your mind? 'Cause you been all up in mine
可若我看見你，我不知道該如何訴衷腸
But if I saw you, I don't know what I would say
我不想與誰為伴，我只想振作自己
Instead of being together, I need to get it together
與其以辭藻作證，不如用力生活
Instead of writing these letters, I want to live to remember
我比從前更好了嗎？是啊，我懷疑自己從何得知
Am I better from the past? Yeah, I wonder what I'll know
當你為一個夢寢食難安，你就該放手了
Haunted by a dream is when you really let it go
我想萬事萬物都有其存在的道理
I guess things happen for a reason
但我絕不會將命運交予偶然
But I'ma never leave anything at chance
與世界初見我找尋上帝之手
At first glance I'm looking for God's hands
魔鬼望著我說，“兄弟，來跳舞”
The Devil's looking at me like, 'Homie, come dance'
我的祖母日益病重，而我從未陪在她身旁

看啊，我的兄弟也迷失了自我，我猜這是什麼家族基因
My grandma's getting sicker, I'm never there when I can be
人們告訴我音樂不應被當成主業
See, my brother feeling lost, I guess it runs in the family
可你並不理解我，又有什麼資格對我評頭論足？
People telling me this music should be a plan B
馬不停蹄，人生來到二十歲
How could you judge me if you don't understand me?
命運在召喚，而我也讓它放馬過來
No breaks, one-twenty goin' in
如今我活在不努力就被淘汰的氛圍中，每日我都問自己到底是誰
Destiny's calling, I' m like, 'Baby, come on in'
你說那是平常人的生活，我說這是慢性自殺
Right now it feels like do-or-die, everyday it's, 'Who am I? '
我能看清他們所不能，這就是我的能耐
You call it nine-to-five, man, I call it suicide
我寧願居無定所身無分文也不要被冠上“幸福”的標籤
I see what they can't see, this is all that I can be
他們不理解我，因為沒人能
Rather be homeless and broke than be labeled as 'happy'
最終萬里挑一的都是那些圈外之人
They don't understand me, 'cause no one can stand me
我打賭輸了一百刀
It's always the outsiders who end up outstanding
這不是什麼天文數字，可這映射出我的為人

我想當時我並不明白這些
I lost a hundred dollars on a bet
當一切都是未知，不要把一切當作理所當然
It's not a lot of money, but it said a lot about me
驕傲是腐蝕這顆星球的毒
In the moment, guess I didn't understand it
貪婪是可取的，是啊，那就是他們給這個品質的光環
When nothing is certain, don't ever take it for granted
我們的世界觀就是一團糟
Pride is a poison that infested our planet
擁有的不及我們應得就是我們對幸福的觀念
Greed is okay, well, that's the way that they brand it
我還應該做些什麼？
Our view of everything is such a mess
他們說，“遵循步驟，緊跟指導方針”
Having less than we deserve is our perception of happiness
若是我聽了那番話，我也只能是個局外的小孩
What am I supposed to do?
你眼中的那是什麼？我才不在乎你的眼線
They say, 'Follow the steps, stick to the guidelines'
我從不在乎那些浮華
If I listen to that, I'm just a kid on the sideline
錢財讓人們趨之若鶩
What's in your eyes? I don't care 'bout your eyeline
可若我得到了不義之財，我會毫不猶豫地將它歸還
Never cared about all of that
幸福該是每個人都應得的東西
Money got people snappin' for their quarter back
可我們就是如此
If I get it, I'ma give it back
我曾在追星的途中迷失於黑暗
I feel like happiness is something everybody should have
汪洋中找尋真愛，這事兒就真的那麼難嗎？

或者只是想要個世界分崩離析時能陪在身邊的人
But we are who we are
可每道傷疤都會讓你的心更堅強
I've been lost in the dark, while I've been shooting for stars
堅持住，再奮鬥久一些
Looking for love, like is it really that hard?
每晚我在擦地板的時候思索著人生
Or just have someone who's there when it's all falling apart
就在那時你能感受到自己的脆弱和飢餓
But every scar only makes your heart stronger
這種感覺使我痛苦，同時也驅使我前進
Hold on, just fight a little longer
有時悔恨比回憶更多，就讓它去吧，這就是生活的本質
I ponder these lines while mopping floors every night
過去並不決定我是誰，我只想盡全力
That's when you feel the fatigue and all your hunger
若我不付出，又怎麼會有收穫？
It's been killing me, keep going what they're telling me
我環顧四周，看到的是青春的消逝
More regrets than memories, sometimes you gotta let it be
當你撿起一個空瓶，讓我為你注滿真理
The past ain't ahead of me, I got to give my best
過去的我就像你們所有人，天不怕地不怕好像沒什麼可失去

當所有人都安於現狀，沒有人會想做那個犧牲奉獻的人
How do I make change if I don't give you my two cents?
請涉足我的思想領域，我的心做先驅
I look around, I see the dying of youth
過去終究是過去，可最近我卻沉浸於過去
While you're picking up a bottle, let me pour you the truth
我正找尋著當初我用來獲得幸福的東西，那些被離開的人們帶走的東西
I used to be like all of you, like you got nothing to lose
而世人總是喜歡看你崩潰的樣子，因為你的所得對你憎惡
Nobody want a commitment when everybody's been used
就好像我永遠都成不了我想成為的人，這世界就是一條單行道
Step in my conscience, my heart is the pilot
告訴你怎麼活，告訴你這樣做會帶來的必然效益
The past is behind you, but lately I've been behind it
就像戒指、夏日無意的調情，並不是所有事都是所見即所得
I'm finding I've been placed in happiness in people who leave
所以別再接收他們對於幸福製造的假象
And they love it when you' re broken, hate you when you achieve
因為幸福並不是用錢能買來的東西
It's like I can never be me, the world is just a routine
愛也不會藏身一個深夜的舞會
Telling you how to live and the certain value it brings
我望著天空對天道，“再給我一次機會”
Like rings, summer flings, things ain't what they seem
我已經厭倦了只是坐在房間，知道我能做到卻不邁步
So, don't you ever buy the happiness they sell on the screen
你不做，就不會有結果，看看你正追尋著什麼

為夢想做出抉擇，就好像我曾經的女孩和音樂
'Cause happiness ain't a store bought can
要不失去她，要不失去音樂，可我的心係於音樂
And love isn't found in just a one-night dance
若我不再做音樂，我將成為行屍，所以我做了選擇，我選擇了音樂
I'm looking at the sky like, 'Give me one more chance'
我想要弄清楚，可這甚至和我們的感情無關
I'm tired of sitting in my room like I know I can
我只想要做出成績，這樣我的孩子們都能以我而傲
Nothing's done until you do it, just look at what I'm pursuing
我只想要告訴所有人，生活並不是只有錢滿箱
To die like what you're doing, my girl is 'cause of my music
走出去吧創造價值，別放棄理想
It was lose her or lose it, my heart's in the music
我寫下的每一句都是為了提醒你們要堅強，要站起來
If I didn't, I'd be dead, so I went and I choose it
愛情不過是一份出價，而我們都無法給予足夠多的東西

若沒有人願意抬頭看，那麼立足頂端又有什麼意義呢？
Trying to figure it out, and this ain't even about us
所以啊，抬頭看，抬起頭來
I'm trying to be something more, so that my kids can be proud of
別向下看
I'm trying to show everybody there's not much worth in these dollars
抬頭看，抬起頭來
Out here making a difference, don't you give up
別向下看
Every line that I'm writing is just for you to get up
別低頭
Love is barely an offer, yeah, we don't give it enough
Man, what's the point of the top if nobody wants to look up?
So, look up, look up
Don't look down
Look up, look up
Don't look down
Don't look down
