Текст песни: The Verge + перевод

Guardian of the Ville

My enemies in the club so I’m partying for the thrill

Part of me want to spaz and part of me want to chill

I really should build some bridges—I probably never will

Pardon my being honest but honestly I’m for real

I been going harder regardless of how they feel

I see their true colors are starting to be revealed

And I try to stay quiet but sometimes I gotta spill

Cause my cup full, tank full, I’m so thankful

I been out here poppin, yeah—R.I.P. Bankroll

And rest in peace to everyone who doubted me-you dead to me

I remember every single word you ever said to me

And stop with all this brother talk, we’re from a different pedigree

If you ain’t help me bake it, listen you can break the bread with me

Thought you would have bled for me, sorry, yeah, you better be

And let this be a heads-up to anyone one ahead of me

I know where I’m headed and I’ll be there expeditiously

You should take the tip cause I ain’t got no extra sympathy

Ain’t lying when I tell you all my exes still into me

I guess that you could say I have excessive liabilities

And yes I have been blessed I do the best with my ability

You can’t move like this, boy don’t be testing my agility

Take a look you’ll really see that I’ve been on a killing spree

I’m running through the village like a herd of wild wildebeests

The word around the city—something special is cooking

Seems like everybody miss me now my schedule is booked

You gotta have what it takes, and I had what it took

I still stood tall when I would get overlooked

Getting older, been growing and I’ve been learning

Trust and respect aren’t given, you gotta earn ‘em

You be saying things to them you wouldn’t ever say in person

I be saying things that people feel behind their sternum

I just take it day by day I’m finding joy inside the journey

On the verge of something great and lately I don’t even worry

Spent my whole morning talking money with attorneys

So how they feel about me it just really don’t concern me

Got too much on my mind, I’m drawing the line

You’re either with more or against me and you’re falling behind

Why do I still hold the torch when I’ve been burnt so many times?

This little light of mine, I gotta let it shine, yeah

Hey man, I just wanted to tell you that these past few days I think I’m on the

longest streak of sobriety that I’ve been on, you know, a while.

It’s funny the questions I’m asking myself about the future and how much more

heavily I weigh it… and, yo, we’re doing the right thing man. I love you man

I’m on the verge of something great

I pray for courage every night before I lay then take it further every day

I’m on the verge of something great

I’ll be the first to let you know—I thought the curse would never break

Can say it hurt me deep at times when certain people hated: said I’m not the

real thing—just version of it

Still I spit the truth naked in a world full of snakes

They tried to slide on me but I heard ‘em coming

Yeah, I like to learn from my mistakes

I ask forgiveness every night before I lay

Then take it further every day, I’m on the verge of something great

I’m like a surgeon when I’m swerving through the lanes

Surging through the serpents and the lames like I’m surfing on a wave

Waving at my foes while I float like a parade

Dissing through their phones—taking photos from a distance

Listen, I’m not focused on the praise, nah

I’m on the verge of something great

Moving with a purpose through the pain beneath the surface

Of the burdens and the curses, all the hurt and all the shame

And after all of that I know that something’s not the same

But… this is just the person I became

There probably were some moments I was certified insane

You can’t purchase back the time, you can’t verify the strain

I’m trynna amplify my message but I’m terrified I can’t

I gotta—gotta simplify the plan

Improvise and stand on all the promises I made

Can’t identify the difference between popular and famous—think it all is just a

game

Lot of walls inside myself and lately I’m just trynna breach ‘em when I sit and

write a page

I seem to find resistance when I reach inside my brain

I’m not preaching I’m just saying that these speeches aren’t just sayings and

that’s probably the reason why my feature price has changed

Finally taking off the chains, time to break up out the chamber

Bout to empty out the clip, I’m picking up the anchor

I’m the captain of the ship, I might make them walk the plank

They been wanting me to sink but I’ve been rolling like a tank

Never asking what they think but they still watching what I do

I’m cautious what I share, I act like I don’t care

But then I stay up in my room reading comments, counting views

And end up praying for a stranger thinking «if they only knew»

I’m such a believer it’s not even funny

I’m starting to be, tell you what, I’m starting to be

No fuck that, fuck that dude, it’s you It’s you, it’s not—it's not me bro,

it’s you. It’s you. You’re the reason. You got—you're our best shot.

Nah, you know what I’m saying? I feel like you really possess… the trait
