麦克风测试测试
表达我的情绪 不用克制克制
什么大咖都不必刻意认识认识
聊着大家的话题参杂一些政治
操他妈的 人民被欺负了当然怪罪政府
因为那嘴脸和德性你也清楚
除了权贵 大多数都还过的辛苦
老百姓的原罪 是当谁的金主
反正谎言对他们这牛皮值得一吹
要是没人发现能偷偷换来一堆金银财宝
可以带着全家大小一飞到好远的地方生活
躲过别人一追
也许真的钱 多少代表地位
只要爬得越高越不用避讳
警察沿小巷子寻找露出来的气味
我也看着目标 想着如何进退
该如何进退
那些bullshit 像迟早会遇到
天灾和人祸 反覆着象是预告
幸运的留下不幸的画上句号
谁在处罚我们别怪没有预兆
什么时候开始我也相信钞票
但还没准备好要把我的自尊抛掉
So I mic check 1,2,1,2
让我mic check 1,2,1,2
(Verse我们享受了民主但好像只有部分
像要我们享受生活 但没钱来助阵
蓝的台币绿的美金 有不同取舍
我说出我想要说的还要谁的许可
尊重你有你的意见 我有我的立场
像让你听到这声音 不只因为我技痒
象是美梦一场的年代已经过去
把自己重新过滤不再需要华丽的伎俩
受谁影响 现在也这样影响着人
我也犯错也罪过 不是你理想的神
就让他们恨 算他们比我自己挑剔
我满足我的忠实顾客从第一天交易
深夜不再交际 错过像失之交臂
我的音乐像毒品告诉你我的消息
告诉你我多着急 告诉你我的那些让你着迷
告诉你我的方法也帮助你逃离
那些bullshit 像迟早会遇到
天灾和人祸 反覆着象是预告
幸运的留下不幸的画上句号
谁在处罚我们别怪没有预兆
什么时候开始我也相信钞票
但还没准备好要把我的自尊抛掉
So mic check 1,2,1,2
让我mic check 1,2,1,2
所以周末的highway照塞隧道照堵
谁也按着喇叭 急着赶去跳舞
重生和毁灭都在默默倒数
5,4,3,2 就把我放逐
夜晚到白天 这城市也没有休息
谁被伤害 这档事没有周期
可能是你可能是我
象是玻璃般地脆弱 所以我才选择抽离
那些bullshit 像迟早会遇到
天灾和人祸 反覆着象是预告
幸运的留下不幸的画上句号
谁在处罚我们别怪没有预兆
什么时候开始我也相信钞票
但还没准备好要把我的自尊抛掉




So mic check 1,2,1,2
让我mic check 1,2,1,2

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Dan & Dan's song "2+2" portray a sense of frustration and disillusionment with society and authority. The artist expresses their emotions freely and does not feel the need to restrain themselves. They use popular topics and mix them with politics, blaming the government for mistreating the people. The majority of people struggle to make ends meet, and the only ones benefiting from this system are the elites. The artist questions the value of money and status and believes that lies and propaganda hold significant worth.


The second verse emphasizes the artist's individuality and their need to be heard. They have their opinions and beliefs, and everyone should respect them. The artist dismisses the false glamour and chooses to filter themselves to be more true to who they are. The lyrics touch upon the fragility of life and how easily one can be hurt, making it necessary to detach oneself from negativity. The chorus "mic check 1,2,1,2" is a call to action for the people to awaken and fight back to escape the endless cycle of "bullshit."


Overall, the song encourages the audience to think critically and not blindly follow society's constructs. It preaches the importance of individuality and courage to stand up against authority for the greater good.
