Sing For The Moment

歌词
These ideas are nightmares for white parents
这些想法,对白人父母来说就是噩梦
Whose worst fear is a child with dyed hair
他们最大忧虑就是怕自己孩子穿耳环染头发
and who likes earrings
如同他们说的话一点都不重要
Like whatever they say has no bearing
约束在一个不能讲脏话的家是多么可怕
It's so scary in a house that allows no swearing
只见他戴着耳机调高音响徘徊着
To see him walkin' around wit his headphones blaring
孤身在自己地方,不理外面
Alone in his own zone cold and he don't care
他是个问题少年,一旦他谈起那个无用父亲
He's a problem child what bothers him all comes out
离家出走,所有问题就不停烦恼他
When he talks about his fuckin' dad walkin' out
因为他是那么憎恨他,把他从生活排除了出去
Cuz he hates him so bad that he blocks him out
如果一旦见到他,或许会亲手打他
But if he ever saw him again he'd prolly knock him out
他生气,思想有些偏激,顶嘴
His thoughts are whacked he's mad so he's talkin' back
反驳自己被摇滚和说唱所洗脑
Talkin' black brainwashed from rock and rap
他裤子倾斜下腰,戴上头带和绒线帽
He sags his pants dew-rags and a stockin' cap
他继父打了他,他还了手
His stepfather hit him so he socked him back
打破了他的鼻子,他家是个破碎的家
And broke his nose this house is a broken home
那里没有管理,他只是想让情绪发泄出来
There's no control he just lets his emotions go-
来吧,跟我一起唱,歌唱岁月(来吧!)
C`mon! Sing with me (Sing!) sing for the year (Sing It!)
歌唱欢乐,歌唱悲伤(来吧!)
Sing for the laughter sing for the tear (C`mon!)
就今天,来跟我一起唱!
Sing it with me just for today
或许到了明天,上帝就马上来接管你
Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away
圈内正在发生改变,夹杂着帮派(说唱)
Entertainment is changin' intertwinin' with gangstas
相比真正的杀手而言,一个罪人的思想就是他的良心密室
In the land of the killers a sinner's mind is a sanctum
不管好或坏,只有一件东西让我安心
Only ya unholy only have one homey
只有携带这把枪,身处孤独但并不是所有人都懂
Only this gun lonely 'cuz don't anyone know me
然而所有人总觉得自己设身处地
But everybody just feels like they can relate
我想我写的歌词他妈就是个混蛋,它可以教唆人变好
I guess words are a motherfucka they can be great
又或者使人变坏,或者更糟糕,它可以传递憎恨
Or they can degrade or even worse they can teach hate
现在我说的每一词一句那些孩子总在探讨
It's like kids hang on every single statement we make
如同在崇拜我,而且连锁店不停的在卖我的专辑
Like they worship us plus all the stores ship us platinum
但为什么现在一切都发生了变质了?
Now how the fuck did this metamorphosis happen
'从当初只是为了爱好站在角落走廊而说唱
From standin' on corners and porches just rappin'
然后抓住了机会(财富),赶走了所有马屁精
To havin' a fortune no more kissin' ass
但后来这些评论员声讨你,记者炮轰你
But then these critics crucify you journalists try to burn you
粉丝跟你翻脸,律师也想分一分羹
Fans turn on you attorneys all wanna turn at you
从你身上占据一分一毛
To get their hands on every dime you have
你的每一次发怒他们都想让你失去理智
They want you to lose your mind every time you mad
也因此他们想把你塑造成无法控制的人
So they can try to make you out to look like a loose cannon
甚至每次与别人争吵他们会毫不犹豫制造出手枪伤人谣言
Any dispute don't hesitate to produce handguns
这就为什么那些警官想判罪我
Thats why these prosecutors wanna convict me
恨不得马上关我进大牢
Strictly just to get me offa these streets quickly
但他们的孩子一直都虔诚地听着我的歌
But all their kids been listen'n to me religiously
因此警察一边采我指纹,我一边给他们孩子唱片签名
So I'm signin' CDs while police fingerprint me
这个签名是给法官女儿的,不过他的仇恨对我实在太大
They're for the judge's daughter but his grudge is against me
假如我真他妈是个祸害,那所有的一切发生都不靠谱
If I'm such a fuckin' menace this shit doesn't make sense B
'如果真把我唱的歌词当真,那就真会涉及政治因素
It's all political if my music is literal and I'm a criminal
设想我是个罪犯,那我他妈又怎样能养大一个小女孩?
How the FUCK can I raise a little girl
我不能,还轮不到我
I couldn't I wouldn't be fit to
你满嘴谎言,那次是用拳头殴打你而不是手枪!
You're full of shit too Guerrera THAT WAS A FIST THAT HIT YOU!
来吧,跟我一起唱,歌唱岁月(来吧!)
C`mon! Sing with me (Sing!) sing for the year (Sing It!)
歌唱欢乐,歌唱悲伤(来吧!)
Sing for the laughter sing for the tear (C`mon!)
就今天,来跟我一起唱!
Sing it with me just for today
或许到了明天,上帝就马上来接管你
Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away
他们说音乐可以调动情绪并且会跟你沟通
They say music can alter moods and talk to you
那会不会教唆你给枪上膛并指着别人?
But can it load a gun for you and cock it too
哦如果是的话,那下次你用枪攻击了别人
Well if it can then the next time you assault a dude
就直接告诉法官起诉我,那是我的错,我的歌教你这么做的
Just tell the judge it was my fault and I'll get sued
然而有些孩子听到我们会携带枪支
See what these kids do is hear about us totin' pistols
并且会设法弄一支,因为觉得很时髦
And they wanna get one 'cuz they think the shit's cool
但他们并没意识到我们只是为了保护自己
Not knowin' we're really just protectin' ourselves
我们都是艺人,当然这些炒作吹嘘会影响我们的销量
We entertainas of course this shit's affectin' our sales
你个蠢货!音乐就是人的另一面
You ignoramus but music is reflection of self
我们只是通过音乐表达出来,然后就在邮件里收到了支票
We just explain it and then we get our checks in the mail
'很操蛋是不?我们究竟是怎么能从默默无闻
It's fucked up ain't it
发展到最后拥有一切?
how we can come from practically nothin'
这也就是为什么我们一直为那些一无所有的孩子歌唱
To bein' able to have any fuckin' thing that we wanted
除了一个梦想就剩一本说唱杂志
That's why we sing for these kids that don't have a thing
他们把我们的照片钉在墙上一整天
Except for a dream and a fuckin' rap magazine
知道我们所有的歌崇拜着我们
Who post pin-up pictures on their walls all day long
又或者为了那些生活中遭遇挫折的人歌唱
Idolize their favorite rappers and know all they songs
每当晚上他们会坐在那里哭希望结束生命
Or for anyone who's ever been through shit in they lives
直到打开了音乐给了他们一个强心剂并坚强了下来
So they sit and they cry at night wishin they die
在有些人当中或许我们都什么都谈不上,但在他们眼中我们就是动力
Till they throw on a rap record and they sit and they vibe
这就为什么我们一直,抓住机会,抓住时机
We're nothin' to you but we the fuckin' shit in they eyes
努力把握住,因为这一刻注定是我们辉煌的一刻
That's why we sieze the moment try to freeze it and own it
或许有天到了承认我们衰老的那一刻
Squeeze it and hold it 'cuz we consider these minutes golden
就让你现在所听到的音乐让我们的精神一直传递下去,那样就可以
And maybe they'll admit it when we're gone
Just let our spirits live on through
来吧,跟我一起唱,歌唱岁月(来吧!)
our lyrics that you hear in our songs
歌唱欢乐,歌唱悲伤(来吧!)
And we can-
就今天,来跟我一起唱!
C`mon! Sing with me (Sing!) sing for the year (Sing It!)
或许到了明天,上帝就马上来接管你
Sing for the laughter sing for the tear (C`mon!)
来吧,跟我一起唱,歌唱岁月(来吧!)
Sing it with me just for today
歌唱欢乐,歌唱悲伤(来吧!)
Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away
就今天,来跟我一起唱!
C`mon! Sing with me (Sing!) sing for the year (Sing It!)
或许到了明天,上帝就马上来接管你
Sing for the laughter sing for the tear (C`mon!)
Sing it with me just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away
