暂停时间到,到 我登场接管比赛,
[Verse 1]
饶舌上帝-JAY-Z在此
The takeover, the break's over, nigga
嘿,矬子战士,你对这场战争似乎心里没底【暗指Mobb Deep的Prodigy身材矮小】
God MC - me - Jay-hova
Rocafella对你们来太兵强马壮
Hey lil soldier, you ain't ready for war
你们就像用刀参加枪战,带着钢笔涂答题卡
R.O.C. too strong for y'all
我的嘴巴是炸药,防弹背心也无效
It's like bringing a knife to a gunfight, pen to a test
小孩与真爷们的对决,你们毫无胜算
Your chest in the line of fire with your thin-ass vest
这是男子汉的交易,让你屁滚尿流着进医院【B.I=BUSINESS】
You bringing them boys to men, how them boys gonna win?
蠢货,你的个头可不够高
This is grown man B.I., get you rolled into triage, bi-atch
身体也不够强壮,真是傻B
Your reach ain't long enough, dunny
而Rocafella是一支军队,最纪律严明的海军
Your peeps ain't strong enough, fucker
我会绑了你的孩子,然后朝你的媳妇狂吐吐沫
Roc-A-Fella is the army, better yet the navy
我舞大刀,你耍小拳头,让你人生无疾而终
Niggas'll kidnap your babies, spit at your lady
就是这么毫不留情的踩死你们这群蚂蚁
We bring knife to fistfight, kill your drama
可别让我动真格的,因为我会一发不可收拾
We kill you motherfucking ants with a sledgehammer
而你们的假把戏说唱对我根本不屑提起
Don't let me do it to you, dunny, cause I overdo it
Rocafella,我们掌控说唱游戏
So you won't confuse it with "just rap music"
Memphis Bleek,我们掌控说唱游戏【M-Easy=Memphis Bleek】

The Broadstreet Bully we running this rap shit
Oschino和Sparks,我们掌控说唱游戏
Get zipped up in plastic when it happens that's it
Chris 和Neef,我们掌控说唱游戏
Freeway, we running this rap shit
注意了!!我们一统纽约
O & Sparks, we running this rap shit
我才不管你是不是Mobb Deep,我把你们叫齐了然后引爆【双关,Mobb Deep也指Mob Deep,在深处引爆】
Chris & Neef, we running this rap shit
小傻B,你的个子还没我的钞票堆起来高
("Watch out!! We run New York")
回想1988年,我的毒品生意蒸蒸日上
[Verse 2]
而当时的你跳着芭蕾舞,别耍赖,我可有你的照片为证【JAY-Z当时于Summer Jam演出时公开了一张Prodigy幼时跳芭蕾舞的照片】
I don't care if you Mobb Deep, I hold triggers to crews
接着你出了首Shook Ones,想给人生来个一百八十度大转弯?【Shook Ones,Mobb Deep名曲】
You little fuck, I got money stacks bigger than you
得了吧,我才不屑一顾,你需要多点粉丝
When I was pushing weight, back in '88
Roc-A-Fella,说唱游戏的佼佼者,我们无所不知所以
You was a ballerina, I got the pictures, I seen ya
我们对你的底细一清二楚,无人能比
Then you dropped "Shook Ones," switched your demeanour
JAY-Z很怂,不会干了你”,可别让那些鬼话骗了
Well, we don't believe you, you need more people
还是相信这句,“我会让你五马分尸”
Roc-A-Fella, students of the game, we passed the class cause
意识决定思想,灵魂决定行动
Nobody can read you dudes like we do
他们会聚在一起挖个坑然后把你埋葬【天主教的下葬仪式】
Don't let em gas you, like "Jigga is ass and won't clap you"
不,你和我差的不是一个档次,让你的车急刹无法前进【brakes tweaked:双关,刹车。也做breaks tweaked,指BEAT的鼓点太差劲了】
Trust me on this one, I'll detach you
我的专辑首周就比你一辈子卖的都要多
Mind from spirit, body from soul
你们这帮家伙可不该和我不守规矩
They'll have to hold a mass, put your body in a hole
问问NAS,他也不愿招惹我
No, you're not on my level get your brakes tweaked
我知道你们怀念NAS曾经的辉煌
I sold what your whole album sold in my first week
随着别人名声鹊起,你也从中获利匪浅
You guys don't want it with Hov
你个2B
Ask Nas, he don't want it with Hov, no!
NAS给Karl Kani拍广告,其实只是去当个塑料模特【Karl Kani 著名HIPHOP服装品牌】
[Hook]
从Nasty NAS改名Escobar,loser
[Verse 3]
曾几何时也曾灵光乍现,如今只是个垃圾
I know you missing Nas the (fame)
过去的十佳到现在默默无闻
But along with celebrity comes about 70 shots to your frame, nigga
你的保镖在“Oochie Wally”中都让你相形见绌【Oochie Wally这首歌来自Nas的专辑QB’s Finest\N保镖指东岸说唱歌手The Bravehearts】
You a (lame)
事实上,你的flow在那首歌里是最不堪入耳的
You's the fag model for Karl Kani, Esco ads
我明白了,你是东方不亮西方也不亮?
Went from Nasty Nas to Esco's trash
这就是为什么你的杯具生涯已经末日夕阳了
Had a spark when you started but now you're just garbage
你的伪匪帮生涯该落下帷幕了
Fell from "top 10" to "not mentioned at all"
伙计,你对街头的了解太过片面
To your bodyguard's "Oochie Wally"'s verse better than yours
你只是从你的角度观察从而一知半解
Matter of fact you had the worst flow on the whole fucking song
你胡编乱造在你的笔记本上然后主观臆想
But I know: the sun don't shine, then son don't shine
我搞到了你的的第一把枪,并在和Large Professor一起演出中让众人目睹【Large Professor:纽约皇后区DJ,说唱歌手】
That's why your (lame) career's come to an end
你歌里不也说你把它藏在衣服里吗?【Pullin’ a Tec out the dresser, police got me under pressure–NAS“REPRESENT”】
It's only so long fake thugs can pretend
对头,我采样了你的声音【JAY-Z在Dead Presidents II 和 Rap Game/Crack Game 中采样了NAS的声音】,因为你把它们用错了
Nigga, you ain't live it
你写出火热歌词,而我把他变成了传世名曲
You witnessed it from your folks' pad
你一个子儿也别想拿到,伙计,你只能得到“去你妈的”
You scribbled it in your notepad and created your life
我知道我该付钱给谁 – Searchlite出版社【指“MC Serch”,NAS的illmatic的监制,同时也是Searchlite出版社的老板】
I showed you your first TEC (me!), on tour with Large Professor
用用你的脑子吧
Then I heard your album about your TEC on the dresser
你说你在圈子里混了10年,而我只有5年,聪明点吧,nas
So yeah, I sampled your voice, you was using it wrong
10年4张专辑?天啊,我开始方了
You made it a hot line, I made it a hot song
好吧,就算是是每两年出一张吧
And you ain't get a coin, nigga, you was getting fucked then
其中两张是狗屎【指 I Am 和 Nastradamus】
I know who I paid, God - Serchlite publishing
It Was Written 平凡至极,另外一张是 ILLMATIC
Use your (brain)
那就是十年出了一张好专辑而已
You said you've been in this 10, I've been in it 5 - smarten up, Nas
那真是个杯具
4 albums in 10 years, nigga? I could divide
伙伴,该换换flow了
That's one every...let's say 2
你的东西就是垃圾
2 of them shits was due
你还能说出点好东西吗?经得起推敲东西
1 was "nah," the other was Illmatic
得了,你们还是乖乖推崇我登上皇位吧
That's a one-hot-album-every-10-year average
否则下个在Summer Jam大屏幕上出现的小丑就是你了
And that's so (lame)
因为你知道“谁”和“谁”做了些你懂的事【JAY-Z和NAS第一个儿子的母亲Carmen Bryan有染】
Nigga, switch up your flow
但是现在,不如先让这个小秘密保持点神秘感吧
Your shit is garbage
智者告诉我不要和傻瓜玩
What you trying to kick, knowledge?
因为别人区别不了谁是傻瓜
You niggas gonna learn to respect the king
所以我不玩这幼稚的垃圾了,伙计,我长大了
Don't be the next contestant on that Summer Jam screen
滚吧,不要玷污宝座
Because you-know-who did you-know-what with you-know-who
不要朝天吼,会砸死你的
But let's keep that between me and you (for now)
我不知道为何你的建议对自己无用
[Hook]
不要,Jay,他不玩〈周杰伦真不玩这)
[Verse 4]
我不会偷懒,我会大声唱
A wise man told me don't argue with fools
当我结束时,万籁俱静
Cause people from a distance can't tell who is who
你没听,你让你床都不响?
So stop with that childish shit, nigga I'm grown
不要让我知道你TM以为民谣懂你
Please leave it alone - don't throw rocks at the throne
伙计,我知道你很好,所有偷的珠宝
Do not bark up that tree, that tree will fall on you
Twinketoes,你伤我心了
I don't know why your advisers ain't forewarn you
你不要挑衅我,到别处玩吧,我很忙
Please, not Jay, he's not for play
你们这些都要大声叫
I don't slack a minute, all that thug rapping and gimmicks
才能到半巴,你TM的
I will end it, all that yapping be finished
You are not deep, you made your bed now sleep
Don't make me expose you to them folks that don't know you
Nigga I know you well, all the stolen jew-els
Twinkletoes, you're breaking my heart
You can't fuck with me - go play somewhere, I'm busy
And all you other cats throwing shots at Jigga
You only get half a bar - fuck y'all niggas
