remember the name
做为最早一批Linkin Park的fans，这首应该算LP rap曲风中经典的了，可惜这周LP上海的演唱会去不了
You ready?! Lets go!
Yeah, for those of you that want to know what we’re all about
It’s like this y’all (c’mon!)
准备好了？一起来吧！
为了那些想知道我们都是什么样的人
就像这样
[Chorus]
This is ten percent luck,
Twenty percent skill
Fifteen percent concentrated power of will
Five percent pleasure,
Fifty percent pain
And a hundred percent reason to remember the name!
10%的运气
20%的技巧
15%的集中注意力
5%的欢愉
50%的痛苦
和100%地记住这个名字
[Mike]
Mike
He doesn’t need his name up in lights
He just wants to be heard whether it’s the beat or the mic
He feels so unlike everybody else, alone
In spite of the fact that some people still think that they know him
But **** em, he knows the code
It’s not about the salary
It’s all about reality and making some noise
Makin the story - makin sure his clique stays up
That means when he puts it down Tak’s pickin it up! let’s go!
Mike
他不需要他的名字闪耀光芒
他只希望他的声音通过节奏或者麦克被人们听到
他的感觉和每个人都不一样
尽管事实上有些人仍然认为他们了解他
但他们错了 他知道规则
不是关于薪水
都是关于现实 那么来点欢呼
写下一个故事 确信他的团队还在
就是说 当他写完 Tak接下去
[Tak]
Who the hell is he anyway?
He never really talks much
Never concerned with statu***ut still leavin them star struck
Humbled through opportunities given to him despite the fact
That many misjudge him because he makes a livin from writin raps
Put it together himself, now the picture connects
Never askin for someone’s help, or to get some respect
He’s only focused on what he wrote, his will i***eyond reach
And now when it all unfolds, the skill of an artist
他到底是怎样的人？
他从来话都不多
也从不关心什么身份地位 虽然人们都崇拜他
他谦逊地等待机会的到来
尽管很多人都误解他 因为他以创作rap为生
他自己把歌曲组合 于是画面展现
他从不寻求别人的帮助 或者为了获得什么尊重
他只专注于他的创作 他的意志超越了极限
现在一切都呈现出 一个艺术家的技巧
[Ryu]
This is twenty percent skill
Eighty percent beer
Be a hundred percent clear cause Ryu is ill
Who would’ve thought that he’d be the one to set the west in flames
And I heard him wreckin with The Crystal Method, "Name Of The Game"
Came back dropped Megadef, took em to church
I like bleach man, why you had the stupidest verse?
This dude is the truth, now everybody givin him guest spots
His stock’s through the roof I heard he’s ****in’ with S. Dot!
这是20%的技巧
80%的啤酒
100%明显的Ryu很棒
他曾想成为燃烧西部的一个人物
我听说他和Crystal Method乐队创作了歌曲《游戏之名》
回来之后发行了专辑《Megadaf》，去教堂祈祷吧
我喜欢《bleach》这首歌，伙计，你的歌词怎么这么愚蠢？
对!（但是）现在每个人都请他（Ryu）合作
他的人气直线上升 我怎么听说他正和Jay-Z一起工作
[Chorus]
[Ryu]
They call him Ryu, he’s sick
And he’s spittin fire with Mike
Got him out the dryer he’s hot
Found him in Fort Minor with Tak
What a ****in’ nihilist porcupine
He’s a prick, he’s a cock
The type woman want to be with, and rappers hope he get shot
Eight years in the makin, patiently waitin to blow
Now the record with Shinoda’s takin over the globe
He’s got a partner in crime, his **** is equally dope
You wont believe the kind of **** that comes out of this kid’s throat
他们说 Ryu他很棒
他正和Mike一起‘喷火’
看得出他现在很火
在Fort Minor里和Tak一起配合
什么他妈的
他是个*巴
这类型的女人喜欢，说唱乐手希望他被枪杀
8年的‘修炼’，耐心地等待着爆发
现在和正Shinoda带着专辑走向国际
他和搭档一起，做出的东西酷毙
你不会相信这样(棒)的歌曲出自他的口中
[Tak]
Tak
He’s not your everyday on the block
He knows how to work with what he’s got
Makin his way to the top
He often gets a comment on his name
People keep askin him was it given at birth
Or does it stand for an acronym?
No he’s livin proof, Got him rockin the booth
He’ll get you buzzin quicker than a shot of vodka with juice
Him and his crew are known around as one of the best
Dedicated to what they do and give a hundred percent
Tak
他不像你们每天在街头晃悠
他知道如何利用他所得到的
用他的方式达到顶峰
他常听到对他名字作出的评论
人们不断地问他出生就有
还是象征一种简称？
不，他就是这样生活，人们都欣赏他的歌曲
他的语言会让你沉醉
他和他的伙计组成众所周知的最棒的团队之一
一心一意为他们所做的付出100%的努力
[Mike]
Forget Mike
Nobody really knows how or why he works so hard
It seems like he’s never got time
Because he writes every note and he writes every line
And I’ve seen him at work when that light goes on in his mind
It’s like a design is written in his head every time
Before he even touches a key or speaks in a rhyme
And those mother****ers he runs with,
The kids that he signed?
Ridiculous, without even trying,
How do they do it?!
忘记了Mike
没有人真正知道为什么他如此努力
好像他从没有休息的时间
因为他写下了每一个音符，写下了每一句歌词
我看到过他工作时灵感闪现的那一刹那
每次在他豁然开朗，或者唱出韵律的时候
就像在脑中预先设计好
那些和他一起的家伙
还有他签下的歌手
天哪，甚至没有尝试
他们怎么就做出了这样(棒)的东西？
[Chorus - repeat 2x]
[Outro - Mike Shinoda]
Yeah! Fort Minor
M. Shinoda - Styles of Beyond
Ryu! Takbir! Machine Shop!

我想只要看过《第五元素》的TF没人会忘记那个外星人在歌剧院唱的一段凄美动人的歌曲的歌名吧
