Текст песни: Forever Immortal (Lovestory Marina) + перевод

How many times can I revisit the same topic?

Till I paint the picture vivid enough for the people to feel as if it’s a

vision they’re seeing through my optics

Animosity building, why stop it? (yup)

Man, if I could be realer, why not then? (yup)

Because I have a story to tell y’all

A warrior’s tale, constantly worried he’ll fail all

Discouraging thoughts haunt, though he never fell off that cliff

Let’s get it started

9/29/08, I’ve been a target

Whether in New Orleans or when I set it off with the bars in the morning at

Meisler

Advisory’s boring

It’s hard to be clean around all of this garbage

As mad as I seem, know it’s all in the moment

If college ain’t for me, then I wonder how far will I get in life in this day

and age with only diplomas

Ironic how we bonded through music to find an escape from the trauma and lies

blurring lines every day

Living double lives, no one ever realized it

Skin flawless for now, but they’re still riding the wave of your tears

Rumors spread by your peers haunt you whenever mentioned on some Tony Todd ish

Is emptiness a feeling you feel, is it real?

Or is something else killing you in the process?

Common knowledge, I’m not the most positive person outside of when I rhyme

Obviously, my time is seemingly when I’m with you, that’s when I shine

There’ll never be a bigger truth, cause if I signed off

Ending my time on this planet, as depressed as I am, I don’t want to plan it

More so than mine, I know that your soul is damaged

Let the beat go on, I know you’re sure to panic

Cause you’ll stay for me if I stay for you

That’s what you said to me after reading this fan mail, like everything these

people say is proof

If we can save each other, maybe we can save them too

Never thought a freestyle in seventh grade would bring someone amazing

It’s great, I don’t have to unmask you, but that’s only half the battle

Whether you’re privy to matters at hand, what would you say if I was to ask you.

Will any of these songs ever really matter when I’m buried and gone?

A hopeless forever for me

Cause I’m more than tired, I’m just out here trying to be immortalized

For the better, trying to better all your lives

Only thing that’s ever really on my mind is…

Will any of these songs ever really matter when I’m buried and gone?

A hopeless forever for me

Cause I’m more than tired, I’m just out here trying to be immortalized

For the better, trying to better all your lives

Only thing that’s ever really on my mind is…

Wait

How many bullets did you spare me from?

How much time would you say I have left, not too many of my people see 21

I’m well aware and plus, got the mentality of being something bigger

How many people you know really draw and reconsider?

Part of me is bitter, all of me is wishing you the best

Guard each river with your life, because it’s a mess

Nonetheless, I could never be ashamed of my color, race, whatever

I love it, though I think, it brings anger to see us so estranged

Rina, that’s why I cling to you

I’m helping Tony just hoping that he can change

True, you only met him to get a whiff of a winner

Nothing but a fallen angel reeking the scent of a sinner

When you pay so much attention to your blemishes, what makes you any different

than any alcoholic filling his liver with poison?

You’re hearing the voices, but how did you lose you?

Cause you’re the only person you have something to prove to

You know if bridges burn, it’s because of their choices

Apologize to Alyson, and tell her the truth

Who would have thought it would arrive to this moment in time?

We’re killing ourselves cause we’re alive

And we’re tired of life indirectly being about death

Wondering what it’s like to survive, without debt

The people I grew up around don’t know about that

More than half ain’t make it out, and now they got that mentality stuck in them

The only people the hood excites are people that never had to grow up in one

So know that when ever you see your wrist, littered with scars

It isn’t who you are, and that you have the strength to move on

You’re beautiful, but you’ve got to put this past you

And just because I doubt myself, I’ve got to ask you…

Will any of these songs ever really matter when I’m buried and gone?

A hopeless forever for me

Cause I’m more than tired, I’m just out here trying to be immortalized

For the better, trying to better all your lives

Only thing that’s ever really on my mind is…

Will any of these songs ever really matter when I’m buried and gone?

A hopeless forever for me

Cause I’m more than tired, I’m just out here trying to be immortalized

For the better, trying to better all your lives

Only thing that’s ever really on my mind is…

Babe, are you ready?

Was almost like an uphill climb, to fulfill our dream

That’s until time omitted you at a high speed

And my life became like a Pharcyde song

Barely had time to blink as it passed right by me

I reflect on the past and remember going to my first dance

And how all you did was laugh with me

Imagine being on top of the world at full throttle

Am I to dwell?

Cause I would rather tell these people the best times of my life I was spending

with you

A minute can do enough damage to one man that it’s uncanny to not be this

bendable, true

Equivalent to a train wreck, it’s a miracle for me to be alive right now

But I’m in this for you, and I mean that in the best way

Forget death for a second, a metaphor for the wreckage

We’re better off with a message that’ll span over decades

Like the first time we met, I remember like it was yesterday

Every smile, every hug, every kiss, every tear I had to catch

I was blessed to have bested fate

Forever destined to spit in the Devil’s face again

No question, the race I’m in is destiny

Fate when mixed with Satan’s kiss

A pessimist today cause you wavered

Guess you couldn’t take the pain they would cage you with

But I don’t blame you

How many times would they use you, extort you, abuse you till the only thing

you could hold onto was the music?

Everything you were going through was collusive

While the tears build up, if I slip and I fall right off of this cliff

Disappear in the fog; it’s your family to blame for this crippling loss

Like a moth to a flame, got attention to draw

Not to mention, it’s all on me

Should I patiently wait for the time and the day that a label just happens to

call on me?

With you gone, I’m alone and it’s seems like the weight from that drama just

happens to fall on me

Met your father and all like you wanted

I promise, the dream will live on till my heart don’t beat

Athania Parkway is all I need

To every fan that’s ever sent or written a letter

I hope you accept that Marina Rivera or should I say Marina Prado

Is bigger than this rapping, I’m just being honest

Kicking down the doors, reaping what I sow

Dodging everybody just to make it home

And if I’ve got to quit this rapping, I’ll do it

Won’t overstay my welcome

Hear me up in Heaven, I just need to know…

Will any of these songs ever really matter when I’m buried and gone?

A hopeless forever for me

Cause I’m more than tired, I’m just out here trying to be immortalized

For the better, trying to better all your lives

Only thing that’s ever really on my mind is…

Will any of these songs ever really matter when I’m buried and gone?

A hopeless forever for me

Cause I’m more than tired, I’m just out here trying to be immortalized

For the better, trying to better all your lives

Only thing that’s ever really on my mind is… You
