那是2002年，一切都是崭新的 [00:12.59]We were globally huge
我们是全球巨头 [00:13.59]Watching sales go through the roof
看着销量冲破天际 [00:15.32]We wrote and we viewed it
我们写下并欣赏这一切 [00:16.61]Runyon Avenue soldiers included

我们这一群兄弟都不会找任何借口 [00:20.70]We were so bulletproof wrote souped and soaked in our youth
那时的我们写下的词是那么坚不可摧，充满活力 [00:23.48]Thought we was running shit till we lost the sole of our shoe
以为我们会一直走下去直到把鞋底走掉（sole of our shoe中的sole是指proof在D12中的重要地位） [00:26.70]The death of Doody broke us in two
然而Doody的死让我们分道扬镳（Doody是EM对Proof的昵称） [00:28.70]We were thrown for a loop ain't none of us know what to do
我们陷入一个死循环，没人知道该怎么做 [00:31.33]And at the time I was going through my own struggles too
而在那时，我也正经历着折磨（EM在当时有很严重的药瘾） [00:33.97]So I wasn't in no condition to be coaching us through
所以我也没有任何办法指引我们 [00:36.82]Everyone tried to go solo really nobody blew
每个人都想单飞，但真的没人火起来 [00:39.38]I was hoping they do so I ain't have to shoulder the group
我真的希望他们火，这样我就不用肩负起整个组合 [00:41.87]The plan was put everyone in position so that they knew
计划就是如何把每个人放到他们所熟知的位置 [00:44.67]How to stand on they own and I don't want to open up wounds
怎么能够让他们能靠自己，而我也不需揭开伤口 [00:47.38]I just noticed the oomf was gone when we go in the booth
我注意到当我们走上台时，我的某位粉丝却离开了 [00:49.99]Cause the truth is the moment that proof died so did the group
因为事实上那时候Proof死了，我们的组合也是（Proof死后D12很少有合作歌曲，也很少同台演出） [00:52.29]If I could leave this world behind
如果我能够抛下整个世界 [00:57.40]I could open up my eyes and walk in a straight line
我就能睁开眼走在正确的道路上 [01:03.36]Turn to the river with you

我希望我们曾经能够一起搞政治 [02:16.92]Maybe y'all coulda clicked and got you some features
