At 18 years
I left home ventured far
Lonely helpless
I stared at stars
In my darkest broke state
Tavern -bound beer in hand
Munching cheap peanuts I'd stand
Daily streets I'd pound
Crowds bustling all around
Life I thought so dull and profound
Then hip -hop came my way
Hooked on its strong rhythmic sway
Rhymes I mastered flow refined
Time -traveled back to 1973 California
The West Coast my newfound utopia
Life's an eight -mile run
Each step a nod to what's done
In Eminem's footsteps I trod
Wrote my first rap a story to be awed
真诚的灵魂
相互碰撞才显得深沉
热血的信仰
因为坚定才发出光芒
我找到方向
准备启航
Eight miles of rap soul
因为痛过才流的泪水
是多么珍贵
青春无畏
不醉不归
Eight miles of hip-hop OG
致敬那些奋斗的年岁
只因梦纯粹
放弃徘徊
勇敢去追
You are the light of my dreams
One afternoon
Tossing in bed sleep evaded me
I envisioned a war -free world
A peaceful haven a sight so grand
I pondered my mission
To change the world
through rap's precision
My rap it held a noble aim
Gone was decadence
replaced by grit and claim
While others' lyrics were rife with vice
Mine brimmed with love dreams sacrifice
Born not to fall nor to rule with might
I'd cling to love my guiding light
Rhythm words
Skills sounds rhymes
All screamed my mindset my defining times
Regret welled for past decay
But courage flared to lead the way
Leaving yester -self behind
I stride ahead on my eight -mile grind
真诚的灵魂
相互碰撞才显得深沉
热血的信仰
因为坚定才发出光芒
我找到方向
准备启航
Eight miles of rap soul
因为痛过才流的泪水
是多么珍贵
青春无畏
不醉不归
Eight miles of hip-hop OG
致敬那些奋斗的年岁
只因梦纯粹
放弃徘徊
勇敢去追
You are the light of my dreams
Eight miles of rap soul
因为痛过才流的泪水
是多么珍贵
青春无畏
不醉不归
Eight miles of hip-hop OG
致敬那些奋斗的年岁
只因梦纯粹
放弃徘徊
勇敢去追
You are the light of my dreams
坚持的意义
或许微不足道
但只要你去做
一切都会变得美好
要相信自己
Walk the eight miles
Eight miles of rap soul
因为痛过才流的泪水
是多么珍贵
青春无畏
不醉不归
Eight miles of hip-hop OG
致敬那些奋斗的年岁
只因梦纯粹
放弃徘徊
勇敢去追
You are the light of my dreams
