Promise Of A Better Tomorrow
现在,我当然希望街上和平,但实际上
Now of course I want peace on the streets, but realistically
完美绘画是行不通的,我的不幸
Paintin' perfect pictures ain't never worked, my misery
生命难以承受之重导致失眠梦呓
Was so deep, couldn't sleep through all my pressures
追名逐利的过程中我很快学会了使用暴力手段
In my quest for cash I learned fast, usin' violent measures
回忆起少年的岁月,是团结同心的兄弟们
Memories of adolescent years, there was unity
但在那之后,我们逐渐敌对
But after ****rty, we brought war to our community
这么多的人倒下了,必须停下来,我想帮忙
So many bodies droppin', it's gotta stop, I wanna help
我一往无前,单枪匹马,必须保护自己
But still I'm steppin', keep my weapon, must protect myself
明天会更美好的承诺从未实现
The promise of a better tomorrow ain't never reached me
另外,我的老师在课堂上太僵化了,不能教我
Plus my teachers was too petrified in class to teach me
伯爵在啜饮雷鸟葡萄饮料
Sippin' Thunderbird and grape Kool-Aid, callin' Earl
因为我的胃是空的,它引诱我来到这个世界
Since my stomach was empty it seduced me to **** the world
看着我的小兄弟们被枪支夺去童年
Watch my lil' homies lose they childhoods to guns
没有人再哭泣,因为我们都为快乐而死
Nobody cries no more, ‘cause we all die for fun
既然你不能答应,为什么还要问我是否想要和平?
So why you ask me if I want peace if you can't grant it?
在整个星球上作战
*****s fightin' across the whole planet
因此和平不复存在
So it could never be peace
毒品似乎把这整件事情都搞砸了
我们所有人都兴奋起来,狂野的母亲在青春期
It seems drugs done turned this whole motha****in' hood out
已然失去童年
All us *****s actin' up, wild-ass mother****in' adolescents
你怎么会有童年
These *****s ain't even got no childhoods no more
你每个周末都会去参加葬礼吗?
How the **** can you have a childhood
你还在谈论和平?
And you at the funeral every mother****in' weekend?
根本不存在安宁
Pssh, and you mother****ers talkin' about peace?
你没看过新闻吗?你没听说过吗?
*****, it ain't no mother****in' peace
有人亏欠我。他们会控制我吗?不会
You ain't seen the news mother****er? You ain't heard?
我不是一个仇恨者,但我想要你拥有的一切
你们都有孩子,现在我们互相争斗
Somebody owes me. Will they control me? Not
针锋相对,唇枪舌剑
I ain't a hater player, but I want all you got
找到像我这样的朋友并不难
Y'all babies had babies, now we fightin' each other
是个大人物,不介意死亡
My dawgs got frabies, they bitin' each other
我一定很盲目,一个接一个地错过了
And it ain't hard to find a friend like mine
接二连三
Bigfully is a ****** and he don't mind dyin'
我不喜欢任何人,他们更不喜欢我
And I gotta be blind, missed sign after sign
我最后与他们相处很好,不过他们之前听过
Time after time after time after time
老兄,我们住在监狱里,失去了信仰
And I don't like nobody, they don't like me more
在感恩节,我们感恩,只为生活在地狱
And I'm good with that finally, but they heard it before
该死的,伙计,我不是故意的
Dawg, we livin' in a prison, losin' our religion
但贫民窟里有个魔鬼想粉碎它
On Thanksgivin' we thankful, just for livin' in Hell
如果我们成功了,我们仍然被困在黑暗中
Damn, homie, I don't mean to be harsh
会有和平吗?只是我的一片心。从未!
But there's a devil in the ghetto tryin' to tear it apart
我们唯一获得的平静是我们的内心,我们的思想或腰部那可恶的东西
And if we make it up out, we still stuck in the dark
你感觉到我了吗,伙计?来吧,呃
Will there ever be peace? Just a piece of my heart. Never!
会有和平吗,还是我们都只是走向毁灭?仍然被野兽吞噬?
我知道永远不会有和平
The only peace we got is a piece of our heart, piece of our mind, or that damn piece that we hold in our waistline
这就是我在街上走的时候会带着手枪的原因
You feel me, dawg? C'mon, uhh
事情正在改变,你最好看出迹象
在这种时候,我只关心我和我的家人
Will there ever be peace, or are we all just, headed for doom?still consumed by the beast?
世界是一个贫民窟,和平不是其中的一部分
And I know there'll never be peace
我们都相信上帝的新计划
That's why I keep my pistol when I walk the streets
我们花了太多时间互相憎恨
一直在买枪,装子弹,互相瞄准
Thangs is changin', *****, you better read the signs
受害者是你和我,这很恶心,但这是真的
I'm only concerned about me and mine in these times
好人死了,主要是胡说八道
The world is a ghetto and peace is not a part of it
在我内心的深处,有一部分只需要爱
We all believe God's new plan to make it out of this
但属于我的其他部分知道,战争正等着我们
*****s spendin' too much time hatin' on each other
所以我做好了准备,保持高工资
*****s buyin' guns, loadin' 'em up, aimin' at each other
把我的钱和枪放好,从不依靠运气
And the victim is you and me, it's sick, but it's true indeed
求上帝指出冒名顶替者
The good die, mostly over bullshit, repeatedly
决不让任何针对我的武器得逞
Deep in me there's a part that wants nothing but love
因为永远不会有和平,所以不要依赖和平,士兵们为和平而死,而在贫民区,他们为和平而哭泣。和平不存在!
But the rest of me know, war is what's waitin' for us
孩子们吸烟,害得他们全家丧命
So I stays ready, keep my pay heavy and boss up
小孩子被扔下建筑物
Stack my funds and my guns, never rely on luck
孩子们被虐待
Askin' God to point out the impostor
和平?你真的想过和平吗?
Never let no weapon formed against me prosper
没有和平!除非你补过饰非,否则我们永远不会安宁
‘Cause there'll never be peace, so don't rely on it, soldiers dyin' for it, and in the ghetto, they cryin' for it. But **** peace!
直到你去伪存真
直到我们有安详生存的家园
Lil' babies gettin' smoked, mother****ers killin' they whole family
现在我当然希望街头和平……
Lil' kids gettin' thrown off buildings
Mother****ers gettin' abused
Peace? *****, is you out your ****in' mind?
**** peace! We can't never have peace 'til you mother****ers clean up this mess you made
'Til you ****in' clean up the dirt you dropped
'Til we get a piece, **** peace! Westside
Now of course I want peace on the streets...
