Lyrics & Translation
English
I have a dream of a scene between the green hills
Clouds pull away and the sunlight's revealed
People don't talk about keeping it real
It's understood that they actually will
And intoxicated and stimulated MCs
Staring in the trees, paranoid, are gone in the breeze
Watch them flee, hip-hop heads
Take a walk with me and what you'll see
Is a land where the sand's made of crushed up wax
And the sky beyond you is krylon blue
And everybody speaks in a dialect of rhyme
And MCs have left materialism behind them
Meanwhile I just grip my mic
And hope me and my team make it through alright
Because say what you will, and say what you might
But don't ignore who it's for at the end of the night
Because this is dedicated to the kids
Dedicated to wherever music lives
Dedicated to those tired of the same old same
And dedicated to the people advancin' the game
What's real is the kids who know that something's wrong
What's real is the kids who think they don't belong
What's real is the kids who have nowhere to run
Who are hiding in the shadows waiting for the sun
I've seen a lot of shit, I've talked to a bum
Out on sunset strip, he asked me, "How would you feel
If everybody acted like you didn't exist?
You'd lose your grip, probably eventually flip."
So let it be known, the only reason that we do this
Is so you can pick it up and just bang your head to it
While MCs fight to see who can be the commonest
We float overhead like a space odyssey monolith
Over seeing the game, over being part of the same old thing
It's all gonna change in a hurricane of darkness and pain
And acidic rain and promises that you won't do it again
Meanwhile I just grip my mic
And hope me and my team make it through alright
Because say what you will, and say what you might
But don't ignore who it's for at the end of the night
Because this is dedicated to the kids
Dedicated to wherever music lives
Dedicated to those tired of the same old same
And dedicated to the people advancin' the game
What's real is the kids who know that something's wrong
What's real is the kids who think they don't belong
What's real is the kids who have nowhere to run
Who are hiding in the shadows waiting for the sun
Pulling me close, the shadow is warm inside
This is where I feel at home, this is my place to hide
Pulling me close, the shadow is warm inside
This is where I feel at home, this is my place to hide
Because this is dedicated to the kids
Dedicated to wherever music lives
Dedicated to those tired of the same old same
And dedicated to the people advancin' the game
What's real is the kids who know that something's wrong
What's real is the kids who think they don't belong
What's real is the kids who have nowhere to run
Who are hiding in the shadows waiting for the sun
This is dedicated to the kids
Dedicated to wherever music lives
Dedicated to those tired of the same old same
And dedicated to the people advancin' the game
What's real, everybody who doesn't feel safe
What's real, everybody who knows they're out of place
What's real, anybody with nowhere to run
Who hides in the shadows waiting for the sun

Dedicated (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Tengo un sueño de una escena entre las verdes colinas
Las nubes se apartan y la luz del sol se revela
La gente no habla de ser auténtica
Se entiende que realmente lo serán
Y MCs intoxicados y estimulados
Mirando los árboles, paranoicos, se van con la brisa
Míralos huir, cabezas del hip-hop
Camina conmigo y lo que verás
Es una tierra donde la arena es de cera triturada
Y el cielo más allá de ti es azul Krylon
Y todos hablan en un dialecto de rima
Y los MCs han dejado el materialismo atrás
Mientras tanto, solo agarro mi micrófono
Y espero que mi equipo y yo salgamos bien
Porque di lo que quieras, y di lo que puedas
Pero no ignores para quién es al final de la noche
Porque esto está dedicado a los niños
Dedicado a donde sea que la música viva
Dedicado a los cansados de lo mismo de siempre
Y dedicado a la gente que avanza el juego
Lo real son los niños que saben que algo anda mal
Lo real son los niños que creen que no encajan
Lo real son los niños que no tienen adónde correr
Que se esconden en las sombras esperando el sol
He visto mucha mierda, he hablado con un vagabundo
En Sunset Strip, me preguntó: "¿Cómo te sentirías
Si todos actuaran como si no existieras?
Perderías el control, probablemente al final te volverías loco."
Así que que se sepa, la única razón por la que hacemos esto
Es para que puedas tomarlo y simplemente mover la cabeza al ritmo
Mientras los MCs luchan por ver quién puede ser el más común
Flotamos por encima como un monolito de odisea espacial
Por encima de ver el juego, por encima de ser parte de lo mismo de siempre
Todo va a cambiar en un huracán de oscuridad y dolor
Y lluvia ácida y promesas de que no lo harás de nuevo
Mientras tanto, solo agarro mi micrófono
Y espero que mi equipo y yo salgamos bien
Porque di lo que quieras, y di lo que puedas
Pero no ignores para quién es al final de la noche
Porque esto está dedicado a los niños
Dedicado a donde sea que la música viva
Dedicado a los cansados de lo mismo de siempre
Y dedicado a la gente que avanza el juego
Lo real son los niños que saben que algo anda mal
Lo real son los niños que creen que no encajan
Lo real son los niños que no tienen adónde correr
Que se esconden en las sombras esperando el sol
Acercándome, la sombra es cálida por dentro
Aquí es donde me siento en casa, este es mi lugar para esconderme
Acercándome, la sombra es cálida por dentro
Aquí es donde me siento en casa, este es mi lugar para esconderme
Porque esto está dedicado a los niños
Dedicado a donde sea que la música viva
Dedicado a los cansados de lo mismo de siempre
Y dedicado a la gente que avanza el juego
Lo real son los niños que saben que algo anda mal
Lo real son los niños que creen que no encajan
Lo real son los niños que no tienen adónde correr
Que se esconden en las sombras esperando el sol
Esto está dedicado a los niños
Dedicado a donde sea que la música viva
Dedicado a los cansados de lo mismo de siempre
Y dedicado a la gente que avanza el juego
Lo real, todos los que no se sienten seguros
Lo real, todos los que saben que están fuera de lugar
Lo real, cualquiera sin adónde correr
Que se esconde en las sombras esperando el sol
