instead of "Mom",she's gonna call me "Point B"

她会称我为“ Point B "，而不是“妈妈”

because that way she knows that no matter what happens

因为她知道无论发生什么事

at least she can always find her way to me.

最后她总能找到办法回到我身边

And I'm going to paint solar system on the backs of her hands

我会把太阳系画在她的手背上

so she has to learn the entire universe

这样她会了解整个宇宙

before she can say "Oh,I know that like the back of my hand."

在她能够说 “哦，我了解这事儿就像了解我的手背那样” 之前

And she's going to learn

并且她会懂得

that this life will hit you hard in the face

生活将会向你迎面痛击

wait for you to get back up just so it can kick you in the stomach

等着你重新站起来好再踢你的肚子

But getting the wind knocked out of you

但是让狂风将你袭倒

is the only way to remind your lungs

这是唯一的方式去唤醒你的肺

how much they like the taste of air

使它们记得多么喜爱空气的滋味
