[Verse 1]
Somewhere in the middle of the line
I lost it every single thing
What I'm trying to say
Dying to say
It costed every little piece
Of a little bit of my soul
Yes that rock and roll, I forced it
Bled a little on the track
Took a load off my back well of course
It maybe wasn't what I wanted to say
All of these days
Because emcees and DJs just dinosaurs anyway
Take hold of your synthesizer paralyzed by the light
Technology doesn't mix well with the water out of the faucet
Yeah, cause they got fluoride there
And it don't wash your hair
But the soap still washed away all the dirt all the same
Tell the good people your name
When you're up there on stage
No friends summer age
Speak the same language anyways
You can hear the voice inside
Still whispering all those lies
Still trying to realize that maybe this wasn't your calling
Well f** that I'm all in push my chips center stage
You never heard it before maybe I lost my way
[Hook] X 2
Somewhere, somewhere lost in translation
Somewhere, somewhere lost in translation
Tried to say everything that I just meant to say
But no one understood anyway what you say
[Verse 2]
Yeah so many people just preachers not teachers
They talk there at the pulpit
About life evils I mean you
Should've seen the looks on the faces of the congregation
When I questioned whether they had a point
Y'all sent me back there pacin'
As if I ain't got bills to pay
As if I ain't got no other way
I chose this way musicians say bullsh** every single day
Follow your dreams do what you love
Throw them hands up man jigga what
Sicka sicka just babblin'
Cause I haven't been a**-kissed enough (what?)
Five years that's what's up
Going from a local club to the big stage big lights
Blowin' up they show me love
Not sure how many more times that I can tour
Not sure how many more songs I've got in store
Don't watch Game of Thrones really anymore
Don't go to the comic store
Every single week back in '94
Things were simpler then
We were just children then
Maybe something along the way
Got lost in translation
[Hook] X 2
Somewhere, somewhere lost in translation
Somewhere, somewhere lost in translation
Tried to say everything that I just meant to say
But no one understood anyway what you say
[Outro]
Somewhere in the middle of the line I lost it
Lost in translation
They keep talkin' and
I keep saying the same thing same thing
