Black
R.B. Reed Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
誰のための人生だろう 虚しさだけ
行き場のないこの思いを
飴みたいに噛み砕いてしまえたら
なんて 星に願っても
変わりはしないのに
Ay
誰のため?
あの日のため?
明日のため?
ボクのため?
誰のため?
あの日のため?
そうさこの旅は俺らのために
命賭ける ことの快感 バグっちまった脳
熱狂の裏に住まう冷静 my life
デイトレーディング simply 媒介
Daydreamer 何故か気づけば
増えたダイス 隣に座ってる 俺らサバイブ
最終列車 動き出した
このチケット手放すんじゃねえぞ
終わりの時に思い馳せる夜
塵と化しても華詩は残るだろう
これは無限の景色 描ける座標
長い長い旅が 痛みも苦しみも
ひっくるめて 君たちと笑いあえる
時を待ってる
Into our black, black journey
最後だろう 命掴みにいどむ旅
Jack the line!! 必要ない justify
“I wanna” だけで構わない旅路
我らだけの景色 まっくろな嵐も
今思えば愛おしい memory
他の誰のためでもない
Belong to our own mind, all night
積み重ねた rhyme 繰り返した fight
それだけが俺たちを連れて行く
未知 未踏へ
もっと先へ 先へ 先へ
先へ baby
ボクだけなんで? なんて
つまらない問いには飽きたんだ
世界はいつも面白いはずだもんね
オネーさん暇じゃない?
簡単な話 刹那に逃げて
花開いて
明日の顔は見たくないな
吐き捨てて さよなら!
お前らしくないな?
そんな目じゃ勝てるはずがないが
わかるだろ たしかにこの旅は楽じゃないさ
(楽じゃないな)
お前がお前じゃない? 知らねえ
俺はお前しか知らねえ
We gonna be dirty
だから前に進むだけ this way まっすぐ
波打つ水 流れてく星
欠けてく月 そのすべてに
嫉妬してしまう夜があって
踊ればいいって (ay)
自分だけが誰にも見えない鎖に繋がれてる
だけど嫌でも夜は明ける
流れた水が光る そっと光る
Into our black, black journey
最初だろう こんな心昂ぶるのは
Jack the line!! 必要ない justify
"I wanna" だけで構わない旅路
我らだけの景色 まっくろな嵐も
今思えば愛おしい memory
お前自身を見つめれば きっと答えがある
積み重ねた rhyme 繰り返した fight
それだけが俺たちを連れて行く
未知 未踏へ
もっと先へ 先へ 先へ
先へ
知らなかった感情が
この胸を満たしていて
隣に笑うお前らが
俺を俺じゃなくさせていた
今はただ この旅をもっと つづけたいだけ
Into our black, black journey
最後だろう 命掴みにいどむ旅
Jack the line!! 必要ない justify
“I wanna”だけで構わない旅路
我らだけの景色 まっくろな嵐も
今思えば愛おしい memory
他の誰のためでもない
Belong to our own mind, all night
積み重ねた rhyme 繰り返した fight
それだけが俺たちを連れて行く
未知 未踏へ
もっと先へ 先へ 先へ

Okay now guess who's back
I am back and ready to take on the world
In a black Maybach
I am riding in a luxurious black car
With a black card on me, better know it’s straight like that
I have a high-limit credit card that is all black and I am not afraid to spend money
My nigga we black on black, black on black
My friend and I are both black and we are dressed in all black
My Rolex gold, but know my strap all black
My fancy watch is gold, but my gun holster is black
Flag all black
I am representing my black heritage
Put it all on that
I am putting everything I have on the line
My niggas gon’ ride for a fact
My friends will always have my back
Yeah homie we black on black, black on black
My friends and I are wearing all black attire
One thing that’s fact: I’m rich and black
I am wealthy and proud to be black
Man I’m sitting in a black room dressed up in a black fit
I am dressed all in black while sitting in a dark room
I’m cleaning my black guns and loading my black clips
I am preparing my black guns for use and loading them with ammunition
Count from one to fifty, that’s a fully loaded mag
I have a full magazine of bullets ready to use
I pick it all up and put it in a black bag
I am putting all of my weapons and ammunition in a black bag
Put on my black gloves, put on my black mask
I am putting on black gloves and a black mask to conceal my identity
Pop my trunk and load it up and jump in my black Jag
I am putting my black bag in the trunk of my black Jaguar car, ready to go
Sipping on black Hennessy out of a black flask
I am drinking black Hennessy from a black flask
And best believe that I’m coming to get your black ass
I am coming to take revenge on someone
When I pull that Mac out, they know I’m finna black out
When I take out my gun, I am about to become very aggressive
They start hitting fences, taking alley ways and the back route
My enemies are running away from me and trying to escape
I caught one of 'em slipping, put that thing up to his back
I found someone who was not paying attention and aimed my gun at him from behind
Pulled that trigger on that nigga, and all he saw was black
I shot him and he died, seeing only black as he lost consciousness
Okay now black lil' nigga, in them all black denims
Referring to a young black man dressed in all black denim
With a Mossberg pump that'll have them sleep in your liver
He is carrying a shotgun that can cause serious harm
Better watch that shit that you say, my goons don’t play
Be careful what you say around me because my friends are dangerous and will not hesitate to act
That black Glock 9 never leave my side, no way
I always have my black gun with me
I keep that strap when I pray, even when I bow head to say grace
I am always carrying my gun, even when I am praying
Any nigga bring beef my way, better let that 4-4 spray
Anyone who wants to start a fight with me should be prepared to face the consequences
That Ghost don’t fold, them four Diablo's on that
My luxury car is a Rolls-Royce Ghost and it is equipped with four Lamborghini Diablo wheels
And I keep that black Louis bag, racks on racks
I have a black Louis Vuitton bag with a lot of money inside
My bitch so bad, Chinese and black, yeah
I have a very attractive girlfriend who is of mixed Chinese and black heritage
I’m a wild young nigga, getting rich off rap
I am a young and reckless rapper who is making a lot of money
My Rolex fitted, spent about sixty on that
I have a Rolex watch that cost me around sixty thousand dollars
