Rap Translation: Rocketeer





Rocketeer

Here we go, come with me

There's a world out there that we should see

Take my hand, close your eyes

With you right here, I'm a rocketeer

Hello, please, come with me.

There is a whole world to explore. Together.

Please, take my hand. Do close your eyes.

With you beside me, I’m a space version of a pioneer.


Let's fly

Up, up here we go

Up, up here we go

Let's fly

Up, up here we go, go

Where we stop nobody knows, knows

Let us fly!

Look! Up we go!

Look! Up we go!

Let us fly!

Look! Up we go!

Our final destination is known to no one. Known to no one.


Where we go we don't need roads, roads

Where we stop nobody knows, knows

To the stars if you really want it

Got, got a jetpack with your name on it

I can tell you this: where we are going has not benefited from the modern technology of roads or footpaths.

Our final destination is unknown.

We could go to the stars, if that is your desire.

See, I have a jetpack specifically assigned to you.


Above the clouds in the atmosphere, phere

Just say the words and we outta here, outta here

Hold my hand if you feeling scared, scared

We flying up, up outta here

We could go above the atmosphere: reaching above the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, or even the ionosphere! (see graph)

Just say “yes, let us do this!” and we will go henceforth!

Are you feeling fearful because we are entering levels of the earth’s atmosphere that will cause us to burst into flames?

Hold my hand and alleviate your fears!

Up we fly! Gravity cannot hold us!


Here we go, come with me

There's a world out there that we should see

Take my hand, close your eyes

With you right here, I'm a rocketeer,

Hello, please, come with me.

There is a whole wide world to explore. Together.

Please, take my hand. Do close your eyes.

With you beside me, I’m a space version of a pioneer.


Baby, we can stay fly like a G6

Shop the streets of Tokyo, get you fly kicks

Infant or lover, we can remain fashionable like a mid-size Pontiac

We can go shopping in the capital of Japan

And there, we will buy you fashionable shoes


Girl you always on my mind, got my head up in the sky

And I'm never looking down feeling priceless, yeah

Where we at, only few have known

Go on the next level, Super Mario

I hope this works out, Cardio

Til' then let's fly, Geronimo

Female, you are ever in my thoughts, and my head is in the sky.

Literally.

I won’t look down because there is no price range for me.

Yeah.

Where we are is exclusive and limited to only a select few.

Let us move on to the next level of our relationship, one half of an iconic Italian video game duo.

I hope we are able to maintain this relationship, cardiovascular aerobic exercise

Until we determine the strength of our relationship let us fly, prominent Native American warrior.


Chorus


Nah, I never been in space before

But I never seen a face like yours

You make me feel like I could touch the planets

You want the moon, girl watch me grab it

See I ain't never seen the stars this close

You got me struck by the way you glow

I'm like, oh, oh, oh, oh

I'm like, oh, oh, oh, oh

No, I have never been beyond the Earth’s atmosphere before.

But, I have never seen a facial structure like yours

You make me feel like I could defy the laws of physics and literally touch another planet in our galaxy.

Would you like Earth’s only natural satellite?

Female, watch me actually pull it out it’s orbit.

I have never seen a star as close as right now

You have stricken me with the glow emanating from your face.

I’m saying, “Oh, oh, oh, oh”

I’m saying, “Oh, oh, oh, oh”


Here we go, come with me

There's a world out there that we should see

Take my hand, close your eyes

With you right here, I'm a rocketeer
