The river's got a hunger
河流似有吞噬的渴望
And the clouds are turning black
乌云翻涌，愈显漆黑
I'm carrying the history of a mountain on my back
我肩负着山峦般厚重的历史
The crops are underwater
农田尽被洪水吞噬
And the bank is at the gate
银行催债已迫在眉睫
And the local preacher's telling me
而本地牧师仍劝我道
I gotta have some faith
我仍需坚守信仰
But my hands are turning calloused
我的双手 已然磨砺成茧
And my boots are full of mud
我的靴子 沾满泥泞
I'm trading every sunset for a little bit of blood
我用每个日落 换取点滴鲜血
There's a hole in the levee and a shadow in the sun
堤坝已现裂隙 烈日下暗藏阴霾
And a long list of battles that I haven't exactly won
漫漫征途 战役无数 却未曾凯旋
Oh it's hard looking high water pulling at my heels
啊 高水位步步紧逼 举步维艰
Turning all my spirit into rusted iron wheels
将我的灵魂 碾作锈迹斑斑的铁轮
I'm a rock in the river
我是河中磐石
I'm a brain in the wood
我是林间沉思的头脑
Standing right exactly where their ancestors stood
我正站在他们祖先曾驻足的同一方土地
Yeah the rain's gonna fall
是的，暴雨即将倾盆
And the devil's gonna rise
恶魔即将崛起
But hard luck and high water can't drown the pride
但厄运与洪水都无法淹没这份骄傲
I see my reflection in a grease stained glass
在油渍斑驳的玻璃中看见自己倒影
Watching all the easy living city folks pass
望着那些生活优渥的城里人匆匆经过
They don't know the language of a shovel and a song
他们不懂铁锹与歌谣的语言
Or the weight of a survival that you have to go along
或是你必须背负的生存重担
The whoop pile's low
欢呼声已渐微弱
And the wind is looking mean
寒风愈发凛冽
I'm the only piece of engine that's still looking clean
我是唯一未被玷污的引擎部件
Oh it's all looking high water pulling at my heels
啊 上涨的洪水已漫至脚踝 不断撕扯
Turning on my spirit and the rusted iron wheels
侵蚀着我的灵魂与生锈的铁轮
I'm a rock in the river
我是河中磐石
I'm a braid in the woods
我是林间一缕发辫
Standing by your jacket where the ancestors stood
守候在你外套旁 祖先曾站立的地方
Yeah the rain's gonna fall and the devil's gonna rise
暴雨即将倾盆 魔鬼即将苏醒
Hard luck and high water can't drown the pride
厄运与洪水 无法浇灭我的骄傲
Keep it calm
保持冷静
Keep it calm I'm still standing
保持冷静 我依然屹立
You can't wash away a man who's made of solid clay
你无法冲刷这具陶土塑造的身躯
I'll be right here breathing
我会在这里继续呼吸
At the break of the day
黎明破晓时分
I'm looking high water
我凝视着高涨的波涛
The world is getting hotter
世界正变得灼热
I'm a resilient son and a daughter
我是坚韧不拔的儿女
