How does a bastard orphan son of a w***e
一个私生子,孤儿,母亲是个荡妇
And a Scotsman
和一名苏格兰人
Dropped in the middle of a forgotten spot in the Caribbean
被遗弃在加勒比海一隅遗忘之地
Grow up to be a hero and a scholar

Founding father without a father
无父的建国者
Got a lot farther by working a lot harder

By being a lot smarter
凭借聪明才智
By being a self starter

By fourteen they placed him in charge of a trading charter
十四岁的时候他们就让他经营一家贸易公司
And everyday while slaves were being slaughtered

And carted away

Across the waves he struggled and kept his guard up
破浪前行,警惕戒备
Inside he was longing for something to be a part of
内心渴望成为有意义事物的一部分
The brother was ready to beg steal borrow or barter

Then a hurricane came devastation reigned
飓风来袭,毁灭降临
A man saw his future drip dripping down the drain
一男子眼见未来如水流般消逝
Put a pencil to his temple connected it to his brain
铅笔抵住太阳穴,连接着脑海深处
And he wrote his first refrain a testament to his pain
他谱写首章旋律,倾诉痛楚的证词
And the word got around they said
于是消息传开,人们说
This kid is insane man

Took up a collection just to send him to the mainland

Get your education don't forget from whence you came

And the world's gonna know your name what's your name man
