Translation of the song lyrics Stayed Down - Rhyan LaMarr, Twista, Social Club Misfits

Stayed Down (original)

I’ve been doing this way too long
I’ve been doing this way too long
Stayed down
Mira ya llego
Con el flow fantastico
Raperos los mastico
La musica chicle que hacen
Usted sorprendio cuando halgo le pace
Y yo como na
Cuantas veces no te dije
Siempre hangiando con titeres
Buscando la fama con guille
Tu mai siempre llorando que triste meng
No hay dinero en tus borsillos, en la calle ta hodio
Esta clase, no la Pasas papa, en el closet mio hay calabasas, Prada
Lo que dios me da es ma que suficiente
Y yo cansao de oirte a tu pidiendo
Cuando hay trabajo nunca estas presente
No me preguntes porque tienes frio
Dios mio dame la paciensa pa Esto
Si no era pa ti yo lo dejo
Pero una pata pa el Diablo todo el calendario saves que me meto (Ahi estas)
Y la calles no te aman, son de concreto
Este año comimos bien Pero el proximo viene el buen provecho, Fernando
If you want something gotta keep the pressure on
Here we come when we beat the block
Now we on somethin' can’t keep us from the top
Yeah we all that we got
Aye-ya-ya-yah
Woah-woah
Aye-ya-ya-yah
Woah-woah
Aye-ya-ya-yah
Stayed down 'til we came up
Aye-ya-ya-yah
Never laid down, never let up
Aye-ya-ya-yah
Stayed down 'til we came up
Aye-ya-ya-yah
Never laid down now, never let up
Aye-ya-ya-yah
See it’s hard to comprehend who you dealing with
I used to pack green in the Philly well
And now I push hope through the city well
Them cold days in the Chi I was building this (City)
And this for everyone down
And this for everyone who clowned
Mmm, you know who you are, you know who I be
I’m the man who burned them bridges
Hit rock bottom
The same man that was saved by grace and now God’s got him
Don’t hate (Don't hate)
Appreciate
I just arrived I am not late
Yessir, selecta' done met up with Misfits and Brat from the Chi to South Florida
Canal Street with Twista, a Mile deep
All this heat I’m rushing, they coming for me
See I’ma ride this big wave till I fall off
'Til I dry up give my praise to sky up
And this for everyone I lost upon the rise up
And this for everyone I left so I could rise up
Keep ya head man this is not the ending
Problems come a lot in the beginning
Long as you can breathe and keep livin'
Long as you, long as you
Aye-ya-ya-yah
Stayed down 'til we came up
Aye-ya-ya-yah
Never laid down, never let up
Aye-ya-ya-yah
Stayed down 'til we came up
Aye-ya-ya-yah
Never laid down now, never let up
Aye-ya-ya-yah
Yeah, no more time to waste I feel like this could be the end, yeah
If they say my name they better add for president, yeah
I do not wear a disguise
You busy living a lie
I got political ties
You take subliminal shots
I’m up here sitting with God
How did we make it this far?
How did we make it this far?
I don’t need any applause
Talk to the man who’s in change
Tell them to free all my dogs
No politics, we opposites, it’s obvious
No competition, I got the kids, I think I need a monument
It’s common sense, the people’s champ a common thread
I don’t miss, misfit gang over everything
I Dodge the fame, God’s to blame
Not the same, I’m on the way
Narrow path gotta walk this way
Nothing changed do this every day
Been to hell and back
It’s unbelievable that I’m still standing here
I’m better than people give me credit for
Letting them know on the daily that I am forevermore
Pay me my money
I’m patiently humble and hungry
Evasive about sharing my feelings
I don’t trust no one
But complaining is not in my mental
Full of wisdom 'cause of what I’ve been through
There’s a difference between a legend and a peasant
The journey more deeper like no adolescents
And these are my confessions
And everything that happened to me I learned a lesson
Running and gunning for so long
What direction was I going?
Which path was I on?
Take it from a legend who took a couple of wrong, turns
He turned it all around
Now I’m home
If you want something gotta keep the pressure on
Here we come when we beat the block
Now we on somethin' can’t keep us from the top
Yeah, we all that we got
Aye-ya-ya-yah
Woah-woah
Aye-ya-ya-yah
Woah-woah
Aye-ya-ya-yah
I am articulate, a mathematician
Quicka the rhythm a tic into a money magician
Ain’t it appealing when I’m fina get intricate, about what I vision?
Which is being focused and making better decisions
Woo, twist the game up with precision
I used to be out here bogus but turned my life around
They said I wouldn’t be nothing but how you like me now?
Now everybody wanna wipe me down
Instead of me taking it’s a blessing in giving
No need to be fakin' it’s a message in living
They was tripin' for thinkin' I’m destined for prison
Instead, I was driving now I’m giving a lesson in wisdom
And teaching 'em how to ball instead of how to fall
Acting wild on Canal you got to quit it
That life is a fantasy
Focus on your family
'Cause ain’t no more acting foul with the style
You got to get it
I’m speaking facts
Knowledge can blow your head back
I come at you like I was head crack so you better relax
Before I take it straight to the max
And show you how to motivate
'Cause I be holding weight
You serve and pack
Money versus everything else is secondary
Because drama in the streets could be hereditary
Gotta go hard, stay charged and be ever ready
Plus success instead of death
You want to be legendary
I’ve been doing this way, way too long
I’ve been doing this way too long
Stayed down
I’ve been doing this way, way too long
I’ve been down for my city
I’ve been doing this way, way too long
Spit bars for my city
Come on and come on and come on and praise God can you see me
I’ve been doing this way, way too long
Stayed down
Aye-ya-ya-yah
Stayed down 'til we came up
Aye-ya-ya-yah
Never laid down, never let up
Aye-ya-ya-yah
Stayed down 'til we came up
Aye-ya-ya-yah
Never laid down now, never let up
Aye-ya-ya-yah

Stayed Down (translation)

I've been doing this way too long
I've been doing this way too long
stay down
Look I'm here
With the fantastic flow
Rappers I chew 'em
The chewing gum music they make
You were surprised when I did it
And I eat na
How many times did I not tell you
always hanging with puppets
Looking for fame with guille
You mai always crying what a sad meng
There is no money in your pockets, in the street ta hodio
This class, not the Raisins dad, in my closet there are calabasas, Prada
What God gives me is more than enough
And I'm tired of hearing you asking
When there is work you are never present
Don't ask me why you're cold
My God, give me the patience for this
If it wasn't for you, I'll leave it
But a leg for the Devil the whole calendar you know I get into (There you are)
And the streets don't love you, they're made of concrete
This year we ate well, but next year will be a bon appetit, Fernando
If you want something gotta keep the pressure on
Here we come when we beat the block
Now we on somethin' can't keep us from the top
Yeah we all that we got
Aye-ya-ya-yah
Woah-woah
Aye-ya-ya-yah
Woah-woah
Aye-ya-ya-yah
Stayed down 'til we came up
Aye-ya-ya-yah
Never laid down, never let up
Aye-ya-ya-yah
Stayed down 'til we came up
Aye-ya-ya-yah
Never laid down now, never let up
Aye-ya-ya-yah
