[Verse 1: Lucidious]
What if I told you that I didn't feel good enough and I'm broken
如果我跟你說我不舒服到接近面臨崩潰
What if I said that I'm losin' my faith and been struggling with coping
如果我跟你說我正在對抗著正在失去信仰的自我
Been stuck for a while
我身陷其中
When I look at the clock man I feel like it's frozen
我望向時鐘,感覺到時間停滯不前
Then again time is just flying too quick
接著時間又重新飛逝
And I'm losing devotion
我失去了忠誠的心
Truth is I feel no emotion
事實上我早已沒有了情感
Bottled it up and all I feel is rage
我把憤怒掩飾了起來
And I would be lying if I looked at you and said I'm not afraid
當我看向你,我會騙你說我並不害怕
What if I never get through this shit
如果我永遠無法度過這個難關的話要怎麼辦
What do I do if I can't find my way
如果我找不到我未來的方向要怎麼辦
And I know that my father has been counting on me to carry our name
我知道我的父親希望我繼承我們的名子
Speakin' of him and I got to be honest
我需要誠實的對待我的父親
We ain't really speakin' these days
但我們這幾天都沒有講到話
I've been scared that I won't get to know him before the day he fades away
我很害怕在他過世之前都無法真正地了解他
My family fought a lot when I was growin' up
在我成長中我的父母一直在爭吵
What can I say? (What can I say?)
但我能說甚麼?(我能說甚麼?)
What can I say?
我能說甚麼?
By fightin', there ain't really nothin' to gain
只會吵架,他們也不會有甚麼收穫
[Pre-Chorus: Lucidious]
I know that the sun is out there somewhere
我知道外面存在著希望
But I've been livin' in rain
但我生活在憂鬱之中
Can we quit playin' games
我們可不可以別再玩這個遊戲了
I'm standin' right here and I'm ready to change
我站在這裡我準備好要改變了
And Mama I promise to give you the world if I make it to fame
媽媽我保證當我成名了我會給你整個世界
Put you both on a stage and make it so everyone's screamin' your name
我會讓你們登上舞台上讓大家讓大家歌頌你們的名字
[Chorus: Josh Woods]
In times like this I see your face
每當我看見你的臉時
Wish you didn't leave this place
都望你別離開這裡
Searchin' for the reason why
尋找著你離開的緣由
So take a moment of silence, goodbye
所以永別了,安息吧
[Verse 2: Lucidious]
Give me a second
給我一點間
I wanna say something to my little brother
我想要對我的弟弟說些甚麼
When you get older, your father is not gonna be with your mother
當你長大後,你的父親不再會和你母親再一起
I'm 23 years older than you, I know it's kinda confusing
我比你大23歲,我知道這令人困擾
Forget all the bullies that make fun of you, it's just for their amusement
忘記所有以霸凌你為快樂的人們,這只是他們的娛樂
Let go of negative, seek out the light
放下所有負面情緒,迎接光明的未來
Develop yourself, you should journal and write
增進自己,你應該去旅遊並記錄一切
Speak with integrity, treat women right
說話正值,善待女性
And you don't gotta drink every typical night
然後你就不會每天晚上都在喝酒
Being popular really ain't everythin'
名聲並不代表著一切
Nah don't give into that hype
不要屈服於那些炒作
And it's okay to forgive the people that hurt you
是時候原諒那些傷害過你的人
But don't give in twice
但不要給他們第二次機會
And to each of my sisters
還有我所有的姊妹
I know we been drifted, our parents divorced
我知道我們迷茫過,父母離婚
We all moved away, and the family shifted
我們都搬離了家人
Yeah we visit on Christmas
對,我們在聖誕節拜訪
But even the holidays' different
但即使是別的假期
Got to make something out of this gift that God has graciously gifted
也要從上帝那慷慨地賦予你的禮物當中獲得一點收穫
[Pre-Chorus: Lucidious]
I know that the sun is out there somewhere
我知道外面存在著希望
But I've been livin' in rain
但我生活在憂鬱之中
Can we quit playin' games
我們可不可以別再玩這個遊戲了
I'm standin' right here and I'm ready to change
我站在這裡我準備好要改變了
And Mama I promise to give you the world if I make it to fame

Put you both on a stage and make it so everyone's screamin' your name

I guess that I taken the easy way out by rapping confessions

And I get emotional every time I stop and think about Taylor

This song is dedicated to Taylor Eller. We love you. And may you rest in peace註2
這首歌獻給Taylor Eller.我們愛你,並願你安詳
註1:這段話為粉絲寫給他的一段,影射出旁人只看出Lucid光鮮亮麗的一面,卻無法看到Lucid所困擾的事情
註2:Taylor Eller是Lucidious的摯友,Taylor Eller於2015/12/30用手槍自殺,當時僅為24歲。Lucidious在採訪時說:無論他在音樂上做甚麼都還遠遠地不夠,我們必須更關注憂鬱及自殺這塊議題,以及如何去幫助他們,尤其是年輕族群的自殺。所以Lucidious決定製作此系列的歌來紀念Taylor Eller以及讓更多人來關注此議題
