Dear Me (feat. Leeds) - Epik High

You think you're gonna be a lawyer or a doctor Paranoia ain't a problem, you gone do some college proper So naive you thinking Ivy League like Harvard Hardly ever got em, so confused on values of a dollar And as the time progress you find the sciences to hold your interest best Rather than the lying or the dying breaths Out of state seems great for an escape But that will fade the day you realize all your friends are gonna stay And you say it's 'cause you hate the heat or rain But behind every new complaint the truth is you're afraid Change is dangerous 'till you rearrange your major Switching to business since nobody's paying for the extra year Yeah you hate it, practice patience and complacency Only thing retained would be the lessons heard perfected here And he ain't happy, but your Dad says that he's proud of ya Mom's not, Bon Mot's just a cop-out of college but You tried less hours and staying in Just to find out it takes 40 a week to pay your rent You come home for 6, you miss class at 10 And wonder why the same shit keeps happening But stay strong, take long drives just to crash the whip Lose it, few years 'till you're back in it Moving, job to job find your purpose in a glass of gin Consolation prize: you'll be pretty good at rapping, kid Stay true, don't let 'em change you Be you, don't let 'em change you Stay true, don't let 'em change you Be you, don't let 'em change you You're being taught that it don't matter Fit in with that old pattern Trick ya with the gold platter Prick ya make ya go faster Got you by the ears, by the books, any methods Making skeptics with their efforts but you'll question every lesson They measure by profession, which you'll constantly be guessing But no stressing, the path before you is the best one Stick to it, through it meet humans like-minded Through that proper channel's guidance Grow yourself, stay defiant One message uttered to my former self Fuck 'em all, don't listen to nobody else Take it all in, the good and the bad, myth and the fact Mix it with laughs, step back, think a minute on that Revisit the past, but only for a quick trip And don't get trapped in the system if you can't fix it Keep them eyes open, and them ears too And pay attention to everything and everyone near you Stay true, don't let 'em change you Be you, don't let 'em change you Stay true, don't let 'em change you Be you, don't let 'em change you Stay true, don't let 'em change you Be you, don't let 'em change you Stay true, don't let 'em change you Be you, don't let 'em change you

Fly high, so high つぎはぎの翼で あの頃僕らは こっそり本気にしていた 自分はきっと特別な 星に守られてるなんて まだ見せていない 取っておきの白い翼 広げてみろと言われた 最初からある訳ないのに 泣きながら叩きつけた 不出来な粘土細工の偶像 飛び散る破片にも 微かな煌めきを 僕ら探してた Fly high, so high 情熱はいつだって 小さな今日と明日を固くつなげるよ Fly high, so high ここに空はあると 暗闇を照らしてよつぎはぎの翼で 精一杯笑って 震える手を握りしめて 暴れそうな嫉妬心を 必死になって隠している 気づいたんだあの翼は 綺麗な羽をまとっているけど 誰にも知られず もがいた傷跡を背負って 飛んできたんだ Fly high, so high ガムシャラに羽ばたけ 1度だけでも風に乗れば変われるよ Fly high, so high 見つけたその空を もっと広げてみようつぎはぎの翼で Fly high, so high つぎはぎの翼で 憧れた空よりも高く飛んで行け Fly high, so high ここに空はあると 暗闇を照らすのは僕らなんだ 飛び立とうつぎはぎの翼で
