Lyrics & Translation
English
[XXXTENTACION & James Pereira:]
I'm recording this
Yeah
Just so I have it for reference
Okay
What do you want? You know what I mean? This is your video, like you can create whatever you want
Like remember how I told you, like zoom into my eyes, then have it zoom out of the eyes and then we'll be in a different scene, we can really play on that and do like a lot of things
Well that it makes it way easier in terms of transitioning and terms of scenes
Yeah, that's what I'm saying, all the-, each scene would zoom out of my eye and zoom into my eye, like I wanna be in the-, like this is gonna be green screen, right? We're gonna have to like, have like a chair, like a chair or a couch, right? And I want everything around me to be blacked out, like remember how in that one scene where I was like-, I was like-, I was like in the, um-, in like this blue place and shit, this time I want it to be all darkness
Like a massive, big black room where there's-, you don't know where the end is?
A-, a massive, big black room and you you don't know where-, where it is, and I'm like sitting-, and I'm sitting and there's a masked man in front of me, right? And they don't show his face, but you can see-
You said a massive man?
Sorry, I'm sorry, not a masked man, a hooded man and you can-, you don't see his face, it just shows the hood and he has on like, a cloak, and he speaks to me and he says "They do not understand you. Do you not fear? The worst enemy is yourself and yet you seem unbothered. Although you cannot pretend like you have walked through life unscathed." And I'm gonna have him like-, I'm gonna come up with like, his dialog and come up with something crazy for him to say, and then it'll be like me within my own mind, little do they realize like, this is all like, my world, right? So it's like, I'm gonna come up with like, this whole concept of like amounting to the light that I can become, and like understand-, like, bro, the con-, the concept can be like genius
So-
And then we can jump-, then we can like jump into the scene where I could say-, where as like-, 'cause then obviously it's like "Who am I? Someone that's afraid to let go" and then like-, you can tie those line-, you can tie those lyrics on to like, someone that's a let-, afraid to let go of my previous self in fear that the fact of who I will truly become
Letting go of someone else, you said?
Letting go of my previous self, you know what I mean?
Yeah
Because that my-, my previous self holds like, my memories hold me to the person that I was, you understand?
Yeah
So in the same aspect, like "Who am I? Someone that's afraid to let go", you see how you can tie those line-, that tie-, that tie to that concept, what do you feel that's it's missing? Because if-, if it's missing anything 'cause obviously tomorrow is Friday and Saturday is very soon, um, oh-ho, Rufus is so fucking cute, bruh
Literally a little leopard
However, I do feel that there is things missing and I'm gonna have to come up with something for that and then prob'
So what you wanna do? Go to bed right now?
No, I'm not going to bed, I would like to go sit in front of my computer so I can remember exactly what I'm doing
Do you wanna go write it down or something?
Yes
Then go, go do it, are we done, should I-, should I dip?
Yes, yes-, no, you don't have to dip, I mean-
I mean if you wanna dip, yeah, then you probably
I mean, what, what else, do you think you gonna come up with anything else that's worth me staying around for?
Shit, I mean, not-nothing that I can't send to you
Alright

voice memo 8: SAD! video concept (traducción LyricVerse Team)
[XXXTENTACION & James Pereira:]
Estoy grabando esto
Sí
Solo para tenerlo como referencia
Okay
¿Qué quieres? ¿Sabes a qué me refiero? Este es tu video, puedes crear lo que quieras
Como te dije, como acercar a mis ojos, luego alejar de los ojos y luego estaremos en una escena diferente, podemos jugar mucho con eso y hacer muchas cosas
Bueno, eso lo hace mucho más fácil en términos de transición y en términos de escenas
Sí, eso es lo que digo, todas las-, cada escena se alejaría de mi ojo y se acercaría a mi ojo, como que quiero estar en el-, como que esto va a ser pantalla verde, ¿verdad? Vamos a tener que, como, tener una silla, como una silla o un sofá, ¿verdad? Y quiero que todo a mi alrededor esté oscurecido, como recuerdas en esa escena donde yo estaba como-, yo estaba como-, yo estaba como en el, um-, en como este lugar azul y mierda, esta vez quiero que sea todo oscuridad
¿Como una habitación masiva, grande y negra donde hay-, no sabes dónde está el final?
Una-, una habitación masiva, grande y negra y tú no sabes dónde-, dónde está, y estoy como sentado-, y estoy sentado y hay un hombre enmascarado frente a mí, ¿verdad? Y no muestran su cara, pero puedes ver-
¿Dijiste un hombre masivo?
Lo siento, lo siento, no un hombre enmascarado, un hombre encapuchado y puedes-, no ves su cara, solo muestra la capucha y lleva como, una capa, y me habla y dice "No te entienden. ¿No temes? El peor enemigo eres tú mismo y sin embargo pareces impasible. Aunque no puedes fingir que has caminado por la vida ileso." Y voy a hacer que él-, voy a inventar como, su diálogo y voy a inventar algo loco para que diga, y luego será como yo dentro de mi propia mente, poco se dan cuenta de que, esto es como, mi mundo, ¿verdad? Así que es como, voy a inventar como, todo este concepto de como ascender a la luz en la que me puedo convertir, y como entender-, como, hermano, el con-, el concepto puede ser como genial
Así que-
Y luego podemos saltar-, luego podemos como saltar a la escena donde podría decir-, donde como-, porque entonces obviamente es como "¿Quién soy? Alguien que tiene miedo de soltar" y luego como-, puedes atar esas líneas-, puedes atar esas letras a como, alguien que es un-, que tiene miedo de soltar mi yo anterior por miedo a la realidad de en quién me convertiré verdaderamente
¿Soltar a alguien más, dijiste?
Soltar mi yo anterior, ¿sabes a qué me refiero?
Sí
Porque mi-, mi yo anterior me retiene, mis recuerdos me atan a la persona que fui, ¿entiendes?
Sí
Así que en el mismo aspecto, como "¿Quién soy? Alguien que tiene miedo de soltar", ¿ves cómo puedes atar esas líneas-, ese lazo-, ese lazo a ese concepto, qué sientes que le falta? Porque si-, si le falta algo porque obviamente mañana es viernes y el sábado es muy pronto, um, oh-ho, Rufus es tan jodidamente lindo, hermano
Literalmente un pequeño leopardo
Sin embargo, sí siento que faltan cosas y voy a tener que inventar algo para eso y luego prob'
¿Entonces qué quieres hacer? ¿Irte a la cama ahora mismo?
No, no me voy a la cama, me gustaría ir a sentarme frente a mi computadora para poder recordar exactamente lo que estoy haciendo
¿Quieres ir a escribirlo o algo?
Sí
Entonces ve, ve a hacerlo, ¿terminamos, debería-, debería irme?
Sí, sí-, no, no tienes que irte, quiero decir-
Quiero decir, si quieres irte, sí, entonces probablemente
Quiero decir, qué, qué más, ¿crees que vas a inventar algo más por lo que valga la pena que me quede?
Mierda, quiero decir, nada-nada que no pueda enviarte
De acuerdo
