让你们来Carlina州 来录音室玩 [06:20.734] I wasn't on no shit, like "Yo, I'm tryna do some Dreamville shit with y'all", nah
我当时完全没有考虑说什么“哟！我要用Dremville的身份和你们做些什么” [06:24.019] It wasn't no talkin' no deal, I didn't even know if I wanted to sign niggas
当然我也没考虑过签约的问题 [06:27.376]I just knew I, y'all was cool, I **** with you
我只是单纯觉得你们很顶 我很钟意你们 [06:31.002] Just pull up, let's see what the vibe is like, let's work
带着玩的心态一起感受下什么气氛 [06:33.302] In my mind, if something happen, it happen
如果能做成一些事那当然最好 [06:35.658] If not, then cool, niggas just got a chance to link and kick it
如果没做成也没问题，你们只是多了一个机会罢了 [06:38.637] But while we was there, the thing that I noticed off rip

不过我立即就发现JID和他们不一样 [07:03.242] "This nigga don't just want it, he willin' to do the work that it takes to get it"
这个家伙啊，这个家伙不只是想要成名，他是真的愿意为之付出努力 [07:09.428] And that's the difference, that's the separator
所以他能从众人中脱颖而出，作这群人中的凤毛麟角 [07:12.730] That's the difference between the niggas that never get what they want
这就是为什么有人轻于鸿毛，有的重如泰山 [07:16.639] And the niggas whose names ring out forever
这就是为什么有的人永远得不到自己想要的，而有的人却能名垂千史 [07:22.239] Forever
永远的，千秋万代的
