歌词
Pulled into the parking lot, parked it
把车停在车场
Zipped up my parka, joined the procession of marchers
拉上我的派克大衣拉链,加入游行示威的人群
In my head like, "Is this awkward, should I even be here marching?"
我该觉得这行为尴尬吗,还是我该继续跟着游行的人群?
Thinking if they can't, how can I breathe?
想着如果他们不愿意,我又该如何做?
Thinking that they chant, what do I sing?
如果他们高唱圣歌,而我又该歌颂什么?
I want to take a stance cause we are not free
我只希望我能坚持立场因为我们都并不自由
And then I thought about it, we are not we
我想我们都并不自由
Am I in the outside looking in, or am I in the inside looking out?
我是旁观者冷眼看世界还是当局者看世界?
Is it my place to give my two cents
而我又该站在那一边
Or should I stand on the side and shut my mouth for justice? No peace
还是我就该选好队并闭口不言为了公平公正?没有和平
Okay, I'm saying that they're chanting out, "Black lives matter", but I don't say it back
好吧,我是说,他们不停地吟唱着黑人不可鄙视,而我却不知道怎么回复
Is it okay for me to say? I don't know, so I watch and stand
那对于我来说真的好吗?我不知道,所以我只是一味的冷眼旁观
In front of a line of police that look the same as me
在法律面前对我而言所有人都是平等的
Only separated by a badge, a baton, a can of Mace, a mask
唯有将权利和权限相分开,带着警棍带着面罩
A shield, a gun with gloves and hands that gives an alibi
防护盾手拿武器,他们才不会为射杀一个手无寸铁的孩子找托词开脱
In case somebody dies behind a bullet that flies out of the 9
以防再有人死在格洛克9毫米口径的枪下
Takes another child's life on sight
眼睁睁的再夺走一个孩子的命
Blood in the streets, no justice, no peace
血洒街头,何来公平正义,何来和平
No racist beliefs, no rest 'til we're free
坚持不在种族歧视不罢休直到我们真正自由
There's blood in the streets, no justice, no peace
血洒街头,何来公平正义,何来和平
No racist beliefs, no rest 'til we're free

Huh?
So, they feel that the police are discriminating against the, the black people? I have an advantage? Why? Cause I'm white? What? Haha. No. People nowadays are just pussies. Like, this is the generation to be offended by everything. Black Lives Matter thing is a reason to take arms up over perceived slights. I'm not prejudiced, I just–. 99% of the time across this country, the police are doing their job properly
所以人们觉得警察歧视黑人?我有天生优势?为什么?因为我是白人?不。要知道现代社会大多是女性。这个群体容易被激怒。黑人被杀就是人们小题大做的典型事例。我没有歧视,只是这个城市大多数的警察只是尽职尽责罢了

White supremacy is our country's lineage, designed for us to be indifferent
我的成功是这个白人至上体系下让Darren Wilson逃脱罪行的产物

我们期待生活文化等衣食住行的同化,而我们只是跟他们擦肩而过
We want to dress like, walk like, talk like, dance like, yet we just stand by
我们汲取黑人的文明与文化,而我们是否对他们表示我们的感谢与尊重?
We take all we want from black culture, but will we show up for black lives?
我们期待生活文化等衣食住行的同化,而我们只是跟他们擦肩而过
We want to dress like, walk like, talk like, dance like, yet we just stand by
我们汲取黑人的文明与文化,而我们是否对他们表示我们的感谢与尊重?
We take all we want from black culture, but will we show up for black lives?
Black Lives Matter, to use an analogy, is like if there was a subdivision and a house was on fire. The fire department wouldn't show up and start putting water on all the houses because all houses matter. They would show up and they would turn their water on the house that is burning because that's the house that needs it the most. My generation has taken on the torch of a very age-old fight for black liberation, but also liberation for anyone, and injustice anywhere is still injustice everywhere. The best thing white people can do is talk to each other. And having those very difficult, very painful conversations with your parents, with your family members. I think one of the critical questions for white people in this society is what are you willing to risk, what are you willing to sacrifice to create a more just society?
