埃米纳姆的单曲
《Not Afraid》是美国说唱歌手埃米纳姆的一首歌曲,词曲由Boi-1da、埃米纳姆、乔丹·埃文斯、路易斯·雷斯托和马修·伯内特谱写,作为主打单曲收录于在埃米纳姆第七张录音室专辑《Recovery》中,于2010年4月29日通过Aftermath娱乐、新视镜唱片、Shady唱片发布。
创作背景
《Not Afraid》主要由加拿大的嘻哈音乐人Boi-1da制作,Mike Strange负责歌曲的录制工作。埃米纳姆想用歌曲来告诉大家他是如何度过2005年到2007年的低谷时期的,包括走出失去挚友普鲁夫的阴影以及克服用药和康复过程中的困难。
正式录制歌曲之前,Boi-1da寄给了Mike Strange几个埃米纳姆制作的伴奏。之后,Mike Strange用PRO tools将伴奏改编,他将其他的乐器加入了副歌和过渡段。埃米纳姆对Mike Strange的改编很满意,于是进入录音室对歌曲进行了调整。之后路易斯·雷斯托制作的伴奏也加入了歌中。
歌曲歌词
英文
Not Afraid - Eminem
I'm not afraid to take a stand
Everybody come take my hand I guess
We'll walk this road together' through the storm
Whatever weather' cold or warm
Just let you know that' you're not alone
Hola if you feel that you've been down the same road
You can try and read my lyrics off of this paper before I lay 'em
But you won't take this thing out these words before I say 'em
Cause ain't no way I'm let you stop me from causing mayhem
When I say 'em or do something I do it' I don't give a damn
What you think' I'm doing this for me' so fuck the world
Feed it beans' it's gassed up' if a thing's stopping me
I'mma be what I set out to be' without a doubt undoubtedly
And all those who look down on me I'm tearing down your balcony
No if ands or buts don't try to ask him why or how can he
From Infinite down to the last Relapse album he's still shit and
Whether he's on salary' paid hourly
Until he bows out or he shit's his bowels out of him
Whichever comes first' for better or worse
He's married to the game' like a fuck you for christmas
His gift is a curse' forget the earth he's got the urge
To pull his dick from the dirt and fuck the universe
I'm not afraid to take a stand
Everybody come take my hand
We'll walk this road together' through the storm
Whatever weather' cold or warm
Just let you know that' you're not alone
Holla if you feel that you've been down the same road
Ok quit playin' with the scissors and shit' and cut the crap
I shouldn't have to rhyme these words in the rhythm for you to know it's a rap
You said you was king' you lied through your teeth
For that fuck your feelings' instead of getting crowned you're getting capped
And to the fans' I'll never let you down again' I'm back
I promise to never go back on that promise' in fact
Perhaps I ran them accents into the ground
Relax' I ain't going back to that now
All I'm tryna say is get back' click-clack BLAOW
Cause I ain't playin' around
There's a game called circle and I don't know how
I'm way too up to back down
But I think I'm still tryna figure this crap out
Thought I had it mapped out but I guess I didn't
This fucking black cloud's still follow's me around
But it's time to exercise these demons
These motherfuckers are doing jumping jacks now!
I'm not afraid to take a stand
Everybody come take my hand
We'll walk this road together' through the storm
Whatever weather' cold or warm
Just let you know that' you're not alone
Holla if you feel that you've been down the same road
And I just can't keep living this way
So starting today' I'm breaking out of this cage
I'm standing up' Imma face my demons
I'm manning up' Imma hold my ground
I've had enough' now I'm so fed up
Time to put my life back together right now
It was my decision to get clean' I did it for me
Admittedly i probably did it subliminally for you
So I could come back a brand new me' you helped see me through
And don't even realise what you did' believe me you
I been through the ringer' but they can do little to the middle finger
I think I got a tear in my eye' I feel like the king of
My world' haters can make like bees with no stingers' and drop dead
No more beef flingers' no more drama from now on' I promise
To focus soley on handling my responsibility's as a father
So I solemnly swear to always treat this roof like my daughters and raise it
You couldn't lift a single shingle lonely
Cause the way I feel' I'm strong enough to go to the club
Put a ??? and lift the whole liquor counter up
Cause I'm raising the bar' I shoot for the moon
But I'm too busy gazing at stars' I feel amazing and
I'm not afraid to take a stand
Everybody come take my hand
We'll walk this road together' through the storm
Whatever weather' cold or warm
Just let you know that' you're not alone
Holla if you feel that you've been down the same road
中文
我从未畏惧,从不惧怕
诉说我的立场,诉说我的立场
就像是在奔腾
众人齐心,众人齐心
我想我必须要
拥有属于我的力量,拥有属于我的力量
避开这个地方
让我们荣辱与共,冲过暴雨疾风
此时此刻的你
管它什么天气,严冬或许酷暑
大概还会停滞不前
我只想让你知道,我始终都会在你身旁
如果你也想逃离出来
我们肝胆相照,在困难重重的人生当中,携手共行
跟着我,带你去梦想的出生点
在我还没出专辑,你大可知道我的歌词
但你坚决不会理解它的内涵,除非我讲释给你听
我绝对不会让你这样的愚昧之人成为我前进的脚步
无论我做什么,才不会在意你怎么想
我只会为我自己而活着,你快滚蛋吧
跟你并没有任何关系,这真的太恶心人了,如果有人阻止我的话
我只会永远的做回我自己
至于那些曾经唾弃我的傻子,我会不费吹灰之力的将你踩在脚下
并没有假如,他的成就不是那么容易得来的
从此时此刻,只知道现在
他在鬼混,他曾经拥有着别人有不了的薪酬
但他的负面新闻从未消停过
不管是好是坏,他都无所谓
他玩弄婚姻,就像过家家
他的才能根本就是诅咒,把一切都忘记,重新振作起来
老天算个屁!只有我才能主宰我自己
我从未畏惧,从不惧怕
诉说我的立场,诉说我的立场
众人齐心,众人齐心
拥有属于我的力量,拥有属于我的力量
让我们荣辱与共,冲过暴雨疾风
管它什么天气,严冬或许酷暑
我只想让你知道,我始终都在你身旁
我们肝胆相照,在生命的路途中协同共行
好吧,我实在是不想和他们浪费时间,浪费口舌
是应该好好唱歌了
你说你是神,牛逼吹的太大了吧
快点滚蛋!没有歌迷你屁都不是!
所有的粉丝们,我重生回归了,我不会让你们失望
我不会再重走弯路,并且实际上
实话实说,上一张专辑真他妈烂
也许不小心唱成了非主流
别着急,我怎么可能在这样下去
我已经准备好枪,接受你的挑战
我不会在浑浑噩噩,我的机遇就像轮回
我甚至还没搞懂,上了天堂下了地狱
我开始决定要好好面对
就算我胸怀远志,但我还是有些迷茫
那些麻烦还是纠缠着我
现在的确是我和恶魔决一死战的时候了,这些碧池还在挑战我的底线
我从未畏惧,从不惧怕
诉说我的立场,诉说我的立场
众人齐心,众人齐心
拥有属于我的力量,拥有属于我的力量
让我们荣辱与共,冲过暴雨疾风
管它什么天气,严冬或许酷暑
我只想让你知道,我始终都会在你身旁
我们肝胆相照,在困难重重的人生当中,携手共行
我不能再这样下去了
从今儿起,我要摆脱所有束缚
我要正视我的对手
我开始成熟了,我有我的底牌,我就要做这个主
我已经受够了那些混蛋的指骂,我精神得很
是时候开始走向正轨了
我的梦想开始变得显而易见,就是为了我自己
事实上,我下意识的为了你
所以没错,我重生了,你让我看清了我自己
你从不清楚你会为我付出什么
我开始渐渐走出困境,可他们还蠢驴一样臣服在我的鄙夷当中
我的心脏又跳了一下,我就是人之王者
我一根手指就能把这帮人碾死
不会有喧闹
更不会有更多虚伪,我答应你
认清落实一个父亲的担子
我定会守护我的女儿,把她抚养长大,我会以我最真挚的誓言发誓
你已经昏昏欲睡
我还精神饱满,去夜店闹翻天
街头酒吧就是我的根据点
因为这只属于我,我为了梦想前进
无关紧要的人快点给我滚开,这感觉真不赖
我从未畏惧,从不惧怕
告诉你我的立场,告诉你我的立场
众人齐心,众人齐心
拥有属于我的力量,拥有属于我的力量
让我们荣辱与共,冲过暴雨疾风
管它什么天气,严冬或许酷暑
我只想让你明白,我始终都会在你身旁
我们肝胆相照,在生命的路途中协同共行
歌曲鉴赏
《Not Afraid》是一支令人振奋的单曲。歌词反映了埃米纳姆从曾经经历过的低谷中爬出来的积极改变。歌词用词从细节来看,表达的是一种开放的心态,尤其在副歌部分,描写自己已经走出低谷的状态,并愿意帮助其他还在煎熬的人。这是这位天王成熟的心态和更包容胸怀的体现。
《Not Afraid》在充满戏剧张力的节奏中展现了埃米纳姆嘻哈风格。《Not Afraid》想传达的那种不惧风暴,无论严寒酷暑,要记住走上音乐之路都不会孤身一人,用音乐带给别人信心的心情。
歌曲MV
MV于2010年6月7日发布。理查德·李担任导演。
MV开头,埃米纳姆站在纽约曼哈顿市政大楼的楼顶鸟瞰城市,之后又转入一个地下室,于是镜头就在这两个地点之间转换。第一段之后,埃米纳姆走在街上,穿越了来往不停的车辆,发现越走出现了越多的镜子,他迷失了方向,最后他冲破了镜子“逃脱”了出去,同时地下室的一堵墙也被埃米纳姆打破。在街的前方,埃米纳姆发现路已经变成一个巨大的坑,如同末日,埃米纳姆跳了下去,突然他飞起来了,最后以超人的速度飞到了曼哈顿市政大楼的楼顶。
