Black Like Me

Little kid in a small town
当我还是小城镇的小孩子
I did my best just to fit in
我用尽全力融入
Broke my heart on the playground
在游乐场上，他们说我格格不入
When they said I was different
我被伤透了心
Oh now, now I’m all grown up and nothing has changed
而现在，我长大成人，但什么都没有变
Yeah, it’s still the same
没错，一成不变
It’s a hard life on easy street
简简单单的街道上，上演着困难的生活
Just white painted picket fences far as you can see
目力所及只有绵延不断的白色栅栏
If you think we live in the land of the free
你如果觉得我们生活在自由之地
You should try to be black like me
就应该试试当一个黑人，像我一样
My daddy worked day and night
我的父亲早出晚归
For an old house and a used car
只为一间旧房子和一辆二手车
Just to live that good life
不过是想过上和别人一样的好生活
It shouldn’t be twice as hard
他为何要经历双倍的艰难？
Oh now, now I’m all grown up and nothing has changed
而现在，我长大成人，但什么都没有变
Yeah, it’s still the same
没错，一成不变
It’s a hard life on easy street
简简单单的街道上，上演着困难的生活
Just white painted picket fences far as you can see
目力所及只有绵延不断的白色栅栏
If you think we live in the land of the free
你如果觉得我们生活在自由之地
You should try to be, oh black like me
就应该试试当一个黑人，像我一样
Oh I know I’m not the only one, oh yeah
我明白我不是唯一
Who feels like I, I don’t belong
没有归属感的人
It’s a hard life on easy street
简简单单的街道上，上演着困难的生活
Just white painted picket fences far as you can see
目力所及只有绵延不断的白色栅栏
And if you think we live in the land of the free
你如果觉得我们生活在自由之地
Then you should try to be, oh black like me
就应该试试当一个黑人，像我一样
Oh, and someday we’ll all be free
哦，总有一天，我们都会得到自由
And I’m proud to be, oh black like me
而我会为我的深色皮肤骄傲
And I’m proud to be black like me
我会骄傲，我是一个黑人
Proud to be black like me
骄傲，我是一个黑人
Black like me
骄傲，我是一个黑人
