They told me that I vanished
They told me that I had it
They told me that I'm gone
I told them, "Don't panic"
When you've done it this long
And you've seen magic
And you know it won't kill you
Even when the whole world doubts it
This is my moment
They can't take my talent
They can't take my stripes
They can't erase my hours
I'm from the underground, anything above ground is a mountain
I'm done tryna impress anybody but the heavens where I'm headed
You don't get to hold onto your flowers
I am in my zone, eyes on the throne
20K deep, better pull out your phones
Turnin' the arena to believers every time I hit the ceiling
Ain't nobody ever touchin' my show
Look at where we started, look at where we got to
Almost OD'd that night in the hospital
Wasn't gonna die, more life in the arsenal
Got another shot to pull off the impossible
There's no need to cry for me
I'm a fighter, fighter
You can't take my voice from me
I will rise up, rise up
So what are you waiting for?
I ain't ready to die yet
The pain is where faith is born
Are you alive yet? Are you alive yet?
Are you alive?
On my grave, what quote will be etched in?
Never played the game to be a contestant
Never joined the league to ride benches
The wins hit different when they don't expect it
Yeah, and they they ain't gotta like me
Got my own Nikes, no Nike ID
And I ain't tryin' to stunt, man
But my logo went over the Jumpman
I remember all I had was a bus pass
Sellin' CDs to make a couple of bucks back
And now I'm up in meetings, and you better believe me
Now that we got the arena, the sonics makin' a come back
I'm not a businessman, I got children, man
I treat my city like it is my fam
'Til the residency gets a buildin' man
Think I'm playin' 'bout mayor, but that is my plan
You know what fifty thousand feels like
When you question, "Is this real life?"
The money doesn't buy happiness, that's facts
'Til you take what you made and decide to give it back like that
There's no need to cry for me
I'm a fighter, fighter
You can't take my voice from me
I will rise up, rise up
So what are you waiting for?
I ain't ready to die yet
The pain is where faith is born
Are you alive yet? Are you alive yet?
Are you alive?
I was supposed to be a one hit ringer
Now I got too many rings and not enough fingers
Keep doing my thing, they keep chasin' the wave
Thinking that they're gonna be the one to outpace age
I must got Mick Jagger DNA
Rolling Stone bags, pre-check, no TSA
I'll be seventy-eight, SM58 in my face
Like, "Who wants to go next?" Nobody's touching my stage
Their heads trippin' like a B-Boy head spinnin'
I bench press the industry and I deadlift it
It's been written, I've been runnin', it's been a minute
Been done it, I bet you a hundred that I've been winnin'
The Benz tinted, it's been vintage, yeah, Ben did it
The crib I live in is like Ben Stiller's
An evening at my house, a night at the museum
Trophies, plaques all over and the view's decent
At the end of the day it's like, "Who needs it?"
Play on, player, I gotta keep competin'
Keep dreamin', won't settle for shit
It isn't sport, it's my life, run the championship, I'm gone
There's no need to cry for me
I'm a fighter, fighter
You can't take my voice from me
I will rise up, rise up
So what are you waiting for?
I ain't ready to die yet
The pain is where faith is born
Are you alive yet? Are you alive yet?
Are you alive?
Are you alive?
Are you alive?
They told me that I vanished
Me dijeron que había desaparecido
They told me that I had it
Me dijeron que lo tenía
They told me that I'm gone
Me dijeron que me había ido
I told them, "Don't panic"
Les dije, "No se asusten"
When you've done it this long
Cuando lo has hecho durante tanto tiempo
And you've seen magic
Y has visto magia
And you know it won't kill you
Y sabes que no te matará
Even when the whole world doubts it
Incluso cuando todo el mundo lo duda
This is my moment
Este es mi momento
They can't take my talent
No pueden quitarme mi talento
They can't take my stripes
No pueden quitarme mis méritos
They can't erase my hours
No pueden borrar mis horas
I'm from the underground, anything above ground is a mountain
Vengo del subsuelo, cualquier cosa por encima del suelo es una montaña
I'm done tryna impress anybody but the heavens where I'm headed
Ya no intento impresionar a nadie más que a los cielos a donde me dirijo
You don't get to hold onto your flowers
No puedes aferrarte a tus flores
I am in my zone, eyes on the throne
Estoy en mi zona, con los ojos en el trono
20K deep, better pull out your phones
20 mil personas, mejor saca tus teléfonos
Turnin' the arena to believers every time I hit the ceiling
Convirtiendo la arena en creyentes cada vez que toco el techo
Ain't nobody ever touchin' my show
Nadie jamás tocará mi show
Look at where we started, look at where we got to
Mira dónde empezamos, mira dónde hemos llegado
Almost OD'd that night in the hospital
Casi muero de sobredosis esa noche en el hospital
Wasn't gonna die, more life in the arsenal
No iba a morir, más vida en el arsenal
Got another shot to pull off the impossible
Tengo otra oportunidad para lograr lo imposible
There's no need to cry for me
No hay necesidad de llorar por mí
I'm a fighter, fighter
Soy un luchador, luchador
You can't take my voice from me
No puedes quitarme mi voz
I will rise up, rise up
Me levantaré, me levantaré
So what are you waiting for?
¿Entonces qué estás esperando?
I ain't ready to die yet
No estoy listo para morir todavía
The pain is where faith is born
El dolor es donde nace la fe
Are you alive yet? Are you alive yet?
¿Ya estás vivo? ¿Ya estás vivo?
Are you alive?
¿Estás vivo?
On my grave, what quote will be etched in?
En mi tumba, ¿qué cita estará grabada?
Never played the game to be a contestant
Nunca jugué el juego para ser un concursante
Never joined the league to ride benches
Nunca me uní a la liga para estar en el banquillo

Las victorias son diferentes cuando no las esperan
Yeah, and they they ain't gotta like me
Sí, y no tienen que gustarme
Got my own Nikes, no Nike ID
Tengo mis propias Nikes, sin ID de Nike
And I ain't tryin' to stunt, man
Y no estoy tratando de presumir, hombre

Pero mi logo superó al de Jumpman
I remember all I had was a bus pass
Recuerdo cuando todo lo que tenía era un pase de autobús
Sellin' CDs to make a couple of bucks back
Vendiendo CDs para ganar un par de dólares
And now I'm up in meetings, and you better believe me
Y ahora estoy en reuniones, y más vale que me creas
Now that we got the arena, the sonics makin' a come back
Ahora que tenemos la arena, los sonics están volviendo
I'm not a businessman, I got children, man
No soy un hombre de negocios, tengo hijos, hombre
I treat my city like it is my fam
Trato a mi ciudad como si fuera mi familia
'Til the residency gets a buildin' man
Hasta que la residencia tenga un edificio, hombre
Think I'm playin' 'bout mayor, but that is my plan
Piensas que estoy jugando sobre ser alcalde, pero ese es mi plan
You know what fifty thousand feels like
Sabes cómo se sienten cincuenta mil
When you question, "Is this real life?"
Cuando te preguntas, "¿Es esto la vida real?"
The money doesn't buy happiness, that's facts
El dinero no compra la felicidad, eso es un hecho
'Til you take what you made and decide to give it back like that
Hasta que tomas lo que has ganado y decides devolverlo así
There's no need to cry for me
No hay necesidad de llorar por mí
I'm a fighter, fighter
Soy un luchador, luchador
You can't take my voice from me
No puedes quitarme mi voz
I will rise up, rise up
Me levantaré, me levantaré

I was supposed to be a one hit ringer
Se suponía que iba a ser un éxito de una sola vez
Now I got too many rings and not enough fingers
Ahora tengo demasiados anillos y no suficientes dedos
Keep doing my thing, they keep chasin' the wave
Sigo haciendo lo mío, ellos siguen persiguiendo la ola
Thinking that they're gonna be the one to outpace age

Their heads trippin' like a B-Boy head spinnin'
Sus cabezas giran como un B-Boy girando
I bench press the industry and I deadlift it
Levanto la industria y la levanto muerta
It's been written, I've been runnin', it's been a minute

The Benz tinted, it's been vintage, yeah, Ben did it
El Benz tintado, es vintage, sí, Ben lo hizo

Du kannst meine Stimme nicht von mir nehmen
I will rise up, rise up
Ich werde aufstehen, aufstehen
So what are you waiting for?
Worauf wartest du noch?
I ain't ready to die yet
Ich bin noch nicht bereit zu sterben
The pain is where faith is born
Der Schmerz ist, wo der Glaube geboren wird
Are you alive yet? Are you alive yet?
Bist du schon lebendig? Bist du schon lebendig?
