歌词
R:Between you and Biggie it was like, who's going to rule the
图怕抠，你觉得你和biggie之间，谁更有资格去
R:the Nigga kingdom and shit, basically, know what I'm saying?
去统治这个黑人的国度，引领风尚？(狭义音乐上的)
R:I was like, this is like a fucking election
你知道我说中文不6，所以，我的意思是，这就像一场该死的选举
2:It is that
我懂的
2:Me and Biggie's situation is smaller than that, it's like…
其实我觉得我和biggie之间的情况没你们说的那么夸张...
救护车：污污污污污污污，图怕抠胸部中了七枪，大家让让路
ambulance: wuwuwuwuwu
[Hook]
我很想知道在我葬礼上人们会嘲笑我吗？
And I wonder if they'll laugh when I'm dead?
如果我为战而生，为何我还为生而战？
Why am I fighting to live if I'm just living to fight?
为何我四处求助，大家却置若罔闻？
Why am I trying to see when there ain't nothing in sight?
为何我尝试给予，人们却不给机会？
Why am I trying to give when no one gives me a try?
如果我为死而生，为何我拼死生存？
Why am I dying to live if I'm just living to die?
我从贫民窟长大
[Verse 1 - The Notorious B.I.G.]
接触到了这个生意圈子，从一盎司的量，开始越做越大
Check it, I grew up a fuckin' screw-up
我们通宵弄货，老子当时觉得老子要Frank White附身了。 Frank White——电影king of new york中毒枭之王
Got introduced to the game, got a ounce and fuckin' blew up
我们必须搞下发型，改变下面貌——怕popo认出来
Choppin' rocks overnight. The nigga Biggie Smalls trying to turn into the black Frank White
全城都在寻找这两个popo——牛奶盒子上经常印寻人启事
We had to grow dreads to change our description
但大家都知道，他俩早被我们做了
Two cops is on the milk box missin'
一把子弹，全都是涂了特氟龙的——特氟龙子弹能穿透防弹衣，打popo好使
Show they toes, you know they got stepped on
试想下，我一个人被一群popo紧追不舍
A fistful of bullets, a chest full of Teflon
但我太胖了，没走几步就喘不过气
Runnin' from the police, picture that
所以我当机立断，塔下反杀
Nigga, I'm too fat, I fuck around and catch a asthma attack
他一倒下，我就把他的枪顺走了，动作专业得很
That's why I bust back, it don't phase me
庆祝我能够逃脱，把他的枪卖了，花天酒地
When he drop, take his Glock, and I'm Swayze
popo省省吧，别妨碍我赚钱
Celebrate my escape, sold the Glock, bought some weight
我很想知道在我葬礼上人们会嘲笑我吗？
Lay back, I got some money to make, motherfucker
如果我为战而生，为何我还为生而战？
[Hook]
为何我四处求助，大家却置若罔闻？
And I wonder if they'll laugh when I'm dead?
为何我尝试给予，人们却不给机会？
Why am I fighting to live if I'm just living to fight?
如果我为死而生，为何我拼死生存？
Why am I trying to see when there ain't nothing in sight?
到我了到我了，我仍怀念和popo一起
Why am I trying to give when no one gives me a try?
一起飙车，把他们撞个稀烂
Why am I dying to live if I'm just living to die?
当时我给高兴坏了，一脚油门踩到底，一路鸣枪
[Verse 2 - 2Pac]
我们那会图样，图森破，但我们那时候走心
(It's on me), but still I'm having memories
在黑暗中，我们不知道能不能穿过那些阻碍，走向光明
Of high speed when the cops crashed
我有过很多梦想和希望
As I laugh, pushing the gas while my Glocks blast
但对于叛徒，我下手绝不手软
We was young and we was dumb, but we had heart
爱慕虚荣的女人，还是会围着我转
In the dark, will we survive through the bad parts?
拍了部小h片，现在全世界都要搞我
Many dreams is what I had, and plenty wishes
条子都要搞我，我有什么办法
No hesitation in extermination of these snitches
但我很淡定，小口喝着窖藏22年的农夫山泉
Envious bitches, they still continue to pursue me
现在媒体们也来测试我
A couple of movies, now the whole world's tryna to screw me
带着些辣鸡问题，想要来问倒我
Even the cops tried to sue me, so what can I do?
我看到的只有苦难与不幸，这是我的精神源泉
But stay true, sippin' 22's of brew
我和popo的渊源，你看下犯罪率就知道了
nd now media is trying to test me
我两个重要的伙伴二进宫，再被抓就出不来了。他们决定
Got the press asking questions, trying to stress me
[学biggie]反杀
Misery is all I see, that's my mind state
叫喊着“图怕抠五环内无敌”，把弹夹都打光了
My history with the police is, check the crime rate
可能早已厌倦整天躲避popo的生活了吧
My main man had two strikes, slipped, got arrested and flipped
我很想知道在我葬礼上人们会嘲笑我吗？
He screamed "Thug Life!" and emptied the clip
如果我为战而生，为何我还为生而战？
Got tired of runnin' from the police
为何我四处求助，大家却置若罔闻？
And I wonder if they'll laugh when I'm dead?
为何我尝试给予，人们却不给机会？
Why am I fighting to live if I'm just living to fight?
如果我为死而生，为何我拼死生存？
Why am I trying to see when there ain't nothing in sight?
人们想要新的领导人，而我的野心，不止西岸，还有东岸
Why am I trying to give when no one gives me a try?
你知道吗，这让我大吃一斤
Why am I dying to live if I'm just living to die?
听到他的死讯我惊呆了
[Outro - 2Pac]
我真的很吃惊，他是个很坚强的人
They wanted a new regime. And my regime includes East coast, includes West coast
你懂的，强无敌，吃人
[The Notorious B.I.G.]
所以我听到他遭到枪击的消息，我第一反应是“md又来炒作？”
I was more shocked than anything, you know what I'm saying?
他总是在枪林弹雨中出生入死
But I wasn't more shocked of him dying
本以为他能渡劫，像往常一样
I was more shocked of him... Pac is a strong dude, yo
然后拿这事出几张唱片，恢复往常
I know dude, you know what I'm saying? Real strong
但这次，他真的死了
So when they was like he got shot, I was just more like, "Again?" you know what I'm sayin'?
我只能说，阿西吧
He always getting shot, or shot at
真的太让我惊讶了
He going to pull through this one again
虽然我们有很多瓜葛
Make a few records about it, and it's going to be over
但我不希望任何人逝去
You know what I'm saying? But when he, when he died
因为阴间，可没有回头路
I was just like, "whoa", you know what I'm saying?
Kinda took me by
I mean even though we was going through our drama
I would never wish death on nobody, you know what I'm sayin'
Because there ain't no coming back from that
