STAR WALKIN’ (Explicit)(League of Legends Worlds Anthem) – Lil Nas X
Lyrics by:Montero Hill/Omer Fedi/Henry Walter
Composed by:Montero Hill/Omer Fedi/Henry Walter
Don’t ever say it’s over if I’m breathing
Racing to the moonlight and I’m speeding
I’m headed to the stars ready to go far
I’m star walkin’
Don’t ever say it’s over if I’m breathing
Racing to the moonlight and I’m speeding
I’m headed to the stars ready to go far
I’m star walkin’
On a mission to get high up I know
That imma die reachin for a life
That I don’t really need at all
Never listened to replies
Learned a lesson from the wise
You should never take advice from somebody
That ain’t try
They said I wouldn’t make it out alive
They told me I would never see the rise
That’s why I gotta get ’em every time
Gotta watch ’em bleed too
Don’t ever say it’s over if I’m breathing
Racing to the moonlight and I’m speeding
I’m headed to the stars ready to go far
I’m star walkin’
Don’t ever say it’s over if I’m breathing
Racing to the moonlight and I’m speeding
I’m headed to the stars ready to go far
I’m star walkin’
Been that *ha* since I came out my mama
Thanking g-d daddy never wore a
Prove ’em wrong every time til it’s normal
Why worship legends
When you know that you can join ’em
These demons don’t like me they don’t like me
Likely they wanna fight me
Come on try it out try me
They put me down but I never cried out
Why me words from the wise
Don’t put worth inside somebody
That ain’t try
They said I wouldn’t make it out alive
They told me I would never see the rise
That’s why I gotta get ’em every time
Gotta watch ’em bleed too
Don’t ever say it’s over if I’m breathing
Racing to the moonlight and I’m speeding
I’m headed to the stars ready to go far
I’m star walkin’
Don’t ever say it’s over if I’m breathing
Racing to the moonlight and I’m speeding
I’m headed to the stars ready to go far
I’m star walkin’
Star walkin’
Don’t ever say it’s over if I’m breathing
Racing to the moonlight and I’m speeding
I’m headed to the stars ready to go far
I’m star walkin’
歌曲《STAR WALKIN’》(Lil Nas X)创作背景和表达含义
创作背景
表达含义
歌曲的核心主题围绕着“打破质疑”与“自我证明”展开。Lil Nas X在歌词中直白地回顾了自己成名路上的坎坷与外界的偏见:“They said I wouldn't make it out alive, they told me I would never see the rise”(他们说我活不过今晚,他们告诉我永远看不到成功的曙光)。面对这些否定的声音,他给出的回应是极其强硬且充满攻击性的:“That's why I gotta kill 'em every time”(这就是为什么我必须一次次击败他们)。这种不服输的劲头,既契合了《英雄联盟》竞技场中击败对手、登顶巅峰的游戏精神,也是Lil Nas X个人职业生涯的真实写照。
歌曲的标题“STAR WALKIN’”(星际漫步)是一个极具象征意义的隐喻。它象征着一种主动、自信且坚定的成名之旅。Lil Nas X在歌词中唱道:“Why worship legends when you know that you can join 'em?”(当你知道自己能够加入他们时,为什么要崇拜传奇?)。这句话构成了整首歌最核心的精神内核——它挑战了听众对成功的传统认知,鼓励人们不要仅仅停留在对英雄的被动膜拜上,而是要有超越前辈、亲自成为传奇的勇气和行动力。
歌曲中有一段极具争议但也最能体现Lil Nas X狂傲个性的歌词:“Thanking g-d daddy never wore a condom”(感谢上帝父亲从不戴安全套)。这句看似粗俗的夸张表达,实则是一种极具挑衅意味的宿命论宣言:他将自己的存在视为一种必然的奇迹,并坚信自己从出生那一刻起就注定要成为焦点。这种极致的自信贯穿全曲,配合副歌中“Don't ever say it's over if I'm breathing”(只要我一息尚存,就永远不要说游戏结束)的呐喊,传递出一种无论遭遇多少攻击与挫折,依然会像恒星一样闪耀光芒的强大生命力。
