The Key

Lyrics Translation

The beat is ready and I ride it
When I come around they excited
They all want a key to the garden
So I put it up and I light it, light it
Tell me how you like it
Get me on the wheel, I'ma drive it
But they wanna raise up the mileage

Well I don't like to turn my back
And so I work and give back
Me I just try to dey my lane
I got the gang behind now
Listen when they call, they call my name
I found the voice within me
No man can curse what God has made

So I can beat your pain
When the dark is closing in
See they want to love me now
When they tried to take me down
We'll be flying off the ground
When the world is going out
When the earth is falling in

This is the mind, this is the light
This is the time, this is the way
I see the dream coming before me
I've been the one, don't have to say it
This is the vibe, don't need to fake it
Seeing the world, living beyond it
This is the key, so I can save you

Well I don't like to turn my back
So I work and give back
Me I just try to dey my lane
Got the gang behind now
Listen when they call, they call my name
I found the voice within me
No man can curse what God has made

So let me beat your pain
When the dark is closing in
See they want to love you now
When they tried to take you down
We'll be flying off the ground
When the world is going out
When the earth is falling in

Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Their heat is getting cold
Their eyes are slowly closing
Their chains they cannot hold me
Under the open sky
They're looking for a way
But I will keep you safe
Yeah yeah oh yeah

The beat is ready and I ride it
A batida está pronta e eu a cavalgo
When I come around they excited
Quando eu apareço, eles ficam animados
They all want a key to the garden
Todos querem uma chave para o jardim
So I put it up and I light it, light it
Então eu acendo, acendo
Tell me how you like it
Diga-me como você gosta
Get me on the wheel, I'ma drive it
Me coloque no volante, eu vou dirigir
But they wanna raise up the mileage
Mas eles querem aumentar a quilometragem
Well I don't like to turn my back
Bem, eu não gosto de virar as costas
And so I work and give back
Então eu trabalho e retribuo
Me I just try to dey my lane
Eu apenas tento ficar na minha faixa
I got the gang behind now
Tenho a gangue atrás de mim agora
Listen when they call, they call my name
Ouça quando eles chamam, chamam meu nome
I found the voice within me
Eu encontrei a voz dentro de mim
No man can curse what God has made
Nenhum homem pode amaldiçoar o que Deus fez
So I can beat your pain
Então eu posso vencer sua dor
When the dark is closing in
Quando a escuridão está se fechando
See they want to love me now
Veja, eles querem me amar agora
When they tried to take me down
Quando eles tentaram me derrubar
We'll be flying off the ground
Estaremos voando fora do chão
When the world is going out
Quando o mundo está acabando
When the earth is falling in
Quando a terra está caindo
This is the mind, this is the light
Esta é a mente, esta é a luz
This is the time, this is the way
Este é o tempo, este é o caminho
I see the dream coming before me
Eu vejo o sonho vindo à minha frente
I've been the one, don't have to say it
Eu fui o único, não preciso dizer
This is the vibe, don't need to fake it
Esta é a vibe, não precisa fingir
Seeing the world, living beyond it
Vendo o mundo, vivendo além dele
This is the key, so I can save you
Esta é a chave, então eu posso te salvar

Sim sim sim sim
Their heat is getting cold
O calor deles está ficando frio
Their eyes are slowly closing
Os olhos deles estão se fechando lentamente
Their chains they cannot hold me
As correntes deles não podem me segurar
Under the open sky
Sob o céu aberto
They're looking for a way
Eles estão procurando um caminho
But I will keep you safe
Mas eu vou te manter seguro
Yeah yeah oh yeah
Sim sim oh sim
The beat is ready and I ride it
El ritmo está listo y yo lo monto

Cuando aparezco, se emocionan
They all want a key to the garden
Todos quieren una llave para el jardín
So I put it up and I light it, light it
Así que lo enciendo y lo ilumino, lo ilumino
Tell me how you like it
Dime cómo te gusta
Get me on the wheel, I'ma drive it
Ponme al volante, lo conduciré
But they wanna raise up the mileage
Pero quieren aumentar el kilometraje
Well I don't like to turn my back
Bueno, no me gusta dar la espalda
And so I work and give back
Así que trabajo y devuelvo
Me I just try to dey my lane
Yo solo intento mantenerme en mi carril
I got the gang behind now
Tengo a la pandilla detrás ahora
Listen when they call, they call my name
Escucha cuando llaman, llaman mi nombre
I found the voice within me
Encontré la voz dentro de mí
No man can curse what God has made
Ningún hombre puede maldecir lo que Dios ha hecho
So I can beat your pain
Así que puedo vencer tu dolor
When the dark is closing in
Cuando la oscuridad se cierra
See they want to love me now
Ven que quieren amarme ahora
When they tried to take me down
Cuando intentaron derribarme
We'll be flying off the ground
Estaremos volando fuera del suelo
When the world is going out
Cuando el mundo se está apagando
When the earth is falling in
Cuando la tierra está cayendo
This is the mind, this is the light
Esta es la mente, esta es la luz
This is the time, this is the way
Este es el tiempo, este es el camino
