Кристина Агилера,T.I. – castle walls 0

[Christina Aguilera]
Everyone thinks that I have it all
But it’s so empty living behind these
castle walls
These castle walls
If I should tumble if I should fall
Would any one hear me screaming behind these castle walls
There’s no one here at all, behind these castle walls

[T.I.]
Observing the estate through the gate from the outside looking in
Bet you would think
I got it made,
better look again
I got butler, got a maid, and a mansion
The belief is that I’m living out a millionaires fantasy
With Phantoms and
Ferrari’s in the driveway
But you see the pain and the change of the same man’s sanity
Your vision jaded by the Grammy’s on the mantelpiece
Just switch your camera lenses you would see the agony
Apparently it’s damaging the man you see before you on the canvas
He may seem alright but all
the disadvantages
His family encounters overshadows his extravagance
Walk in my nines awhile I dare you
I scare you
While it really seem like the kings life aint glamorous
As seen through the eyes of untrained amateurs
Because the camera’s don’t see beyond the walls of the smiles
Only counts until it falls in
the pile

Honestly to me, I think I’d lose every benefit of all
That I’ve accomplished
If my key is never with it, shit
Me knowing this, why should the verses I have laid
Be more important to me than the persons I have raised
I guess I’m saying that to say
that opportunity
But they just don’t equate to all the time they take away
From the kids all the shit I did right is
a mistake
If Deyjah end up a stripper
and Major slinging
yay
How could I ever consider myself a great
If Messiah ain’t paid
and Nique Nique ain’t
straight
Would your favorite song about the whips, money and shit
Be relevant if you found out, the money wasn’t real, nope
So me being the goat shouldn’t mean more to me
Than see it to a king though
From a bad ass kid to man with
some dough
Otherwise I may well have stayed
poor
So while they stay focused on me beefin with Flip,
Shawty Low, Gucci or Ludacris
Or if I’m fucking with a hoe
Did I snitch when I got arrested
Or will I die over nonsense
Internally I’m dealing with
this conflict
So excuse me if I don’t get the chance to kiss the hand
Or slap me in the face, ay I’m just
the man
If they saying I ain’t the best at making hit records
It’s cause this my life these ain’t just
rapping
Shit, you think of that deep,
did ya dawg
See you can’t see the castle through the walls till it falls
Bitch ain’t thinking with the deep,
did ya dog
Cause see you can’t see the castle through the walls till it falls

[Christina Aguilera]
Nobody knows I’m all alone
Living in this castle made of stone
They say that money is freedom but I feel trapped inside it all
And while I sit so high up on a throne
I wonder how I can feel this low
On top of the world it’s beautiful
But there’s no place to fall

[T.I.]
For the record ay, I give a damn
If I never said shit again
My career was meant for me to come and tell it
Honest interpretation of how affected I’m faced with matters
Most rappers used to keep locked away in the basement
The day that I walk I ain’t saying that
