If I Have A Son (feat. The Harlem Gospel Travelers)

If I have a son, Ill teach him to be brave
如果我有個兒子，我會教導他成為一個勇敢的人
Cause if I have a son, hes never really safe
因為他將永遠身處於險境之中
And when you run to the corner store for a snack
當你去街角的小店買零食時
I wanna know that youll make it back home
我得知道你安全到家了
Home

你的肌膚閃耀得如同黃金
Your skin, it glitters like gold
你的靈魂中充斥著愛
Theres love inside of your soul
但無論你的言行舉止如何
But no matter what you say, no matter what you do
這個世界不會回報以同等的善意
This world will never be as friendly to you
我渴望能將你緊緊守護
I wanna keep you close, I wanna keep you safe
希望有一天我不需要再祈禱
I hope I see the day, where I dont have to pray
每一次你離去時
Every time you go
每一次你離去時

若我有個女兒，我會教她如何堅強生活
Every time you go
因為即便你行事一絲不苟人們仍會吹毛求疵

對於渴求的事物必須付出雙倍的努力
If I have a girl, Ill teach her to be strong
只因現實便是如此
Cause even when youre right, theyll tell you that youre wrong
And if you want something, youll work twice as hard
你的肌膚閃耀得如同黃金
Cause thats the only way we get far
你的靈魂中充斥著愛
Far
但無論你的言行舉止如何

這個世界不會回報以同等的善意
Your skin , it glitters like gold
我渴望能將你緊緊守護
Theres love inside of your soul
希望有一天我不需要再祈禱
But no matter what you say, no matter what you do
每一次你離去時
This world will never be as friendly to you
每一次你離去時
I wanna keep you close, I wanna keep you safe
我目睹一個男人生命的流逝
I hope I see the day where I dont have to pray
他的皮膚與我的一模一樣
Every time you go
我希望這世界能有所改變
Every time you go
當你來到這世間一切都能不同

I saw a man lose his life
你的肌膚閃耀得如同黃金
All cause his skin looked like mine
你的靈魂中充斥著愛

但無論你的言行舉止如何
I hope the world makes a change
這個世界不會回報以同等的善意
So when you get here, its not the same
我渴望能將你緊緊守護
Same
希望有一天我不需要再祈禱

每一次你離去時
Your skin, it glitters like gold
每一次你離去時
Theres love inside your soul
如果我有個兒子，我會教導他成為一個勇敢的人
But no matter what you say, no matter what you do
因為他將永遠身處於險境之中
This world will never be as friendly to you
I wanna keep you close, I wanna keep you safe
I hope I see the day where I dont have to pray
Every time you go

Every time you go

If I have a son, Ill teach him to be brave
Cause if I have a son, hes never really safe
