Talking 'bout the ghetto funky funky ghetto
来说说贫民窟的那些事 臭名昭著的贫民窟
Trying to survive trying to stay alive

臭名昭著的贫民窟
Even though the streets are bumpy lights burned out
险恶的街头路灯不能带来一丝光明
D**e fiends die with a pipe in their mouths
***临死前还不忘叼根烟放嘴里
Old school buddies not doing it right
老牌的兄弟们没能幸免
Every day it's the same
每日都是老样子
And it's the same every night
每夜都是老样子
I wouldn't shoot you bro but I'd shoot that fool
我不会用枪打你哥们但是得让那个傻瓜吃子弹
If he played me close and tried to test my cool
如果他实在过分挑战我的底线
Every day I wonder just how I'll die
每天我都在想我会怎样死去呢
Only thing I know is how to survive
在这里我只知道如何生存
There's only one rule in the real world
在真实的世界只有一条规则
And that's to take care of you only you and yours
那就是照顾好你和你的那些东西
Keep dealing with the hard times day after day
面对日复一日的艰难时刻
Might deal me some d**e but then crime don't pay
想要卖些货却被罪犯抢了
Black man tried to break into my house again
那个伙计又想闯进我的房子了
Thought he got off early doing time in the pen
我想他应该是被提前释放了吧
Even though my brothers do me just like that
尽管有时兄弟们这样对待我
I get a lot of love so I'm giving it back to
但我得到的更多是关爱所以我要回馈给

So just peep the game and don't call it crap
所以听好游戏规则别把当成废话
Cause to me life is one hard rap
对我来说 生活就像一场激进的说唱
Even though my sister smoked crack coc*ine
众所周知我的姐姐做了白粉的傀儡
She was nine months pregnant ain't nothing changed
她怀孕九个月了依然与毒为伴
600 million on a footbal team
赌场球不惜一掷千金
And her baby dies just like a d**e fiend
结果她的孩子就像***一样死去
The story I tell is so incomplete
故事还远远没有结束
Five kids in the house and no food to eat
五个孩子在家里饥肠辘辘
Don't look at me and don't ask me why
别瞪着我别问我为什么
Mama's next door getting high
妈妈就在里屋忙着升仙呢
Even though she's got five mouths to feed
尽管有五个孩子在家里嗷嗷待哺
She's rather spend her money on a H-I-T
她还是把钱都花在了白粉上
I always tell the truth about things like this
我总是诉说着真实的故事
I wonder if the mayor overlooked that list
我想知道市长是不是置之不理
Instead of adding to the task force send some help
只是派些小组走走形式
Waiting on him I'd better help myself
等他们救济还不如靠我们自己
Housing Authority and the O P D
房产部门更不会管这些烂事
All these guns just to handle me in the
他们怀里的枪只是拿来对付贫民窟中的我们
The ghetto

Even though they put us down and call us animals
尽管我们身处底层形同野狗
We make real big banks and buy brand new clothes
但是我们今非昔比 购进各色服装
Drive fancy cars make love to stars
开着豪车和明星共度春宵
Never really saying just who we are
从来不会在别人面前提起我是谁
We use alias names like TOO SHORT
我们都用别名比如我叫太短
Sell you stuff you might kill for
你愿意倾家荡产来买我的货
Young kids grow up and that's all they know
年轻小子生长在贫民窟见识都来自街头
Didn't teach him in school now he's slangin' d**e
他们不学无术靠卖货为生
Only thing he knows is how to survive
在这他只知道怎么生存
But will he kill another brother before he dies
但在他离去之前他会不会带走另外一个兄弟
In the ghetto you keep one eye open
在贫民窟 你就睁一只眼闭一只眼吧
All day long just hoping and hoping
日复一日只能祈祷然后祈祷
You can pay your bills and not drink too much
你可以靠自己生存别喝太多
Then the problems of life you'll be throwing up
这样生活中的麻烦你就无法一吐了之啦
Like me but you don't see
像我一样 但你不会知道
Ten years from now where will you be
十年后的你会是什么样子呢

So much game in a Too rap

Blacks can't be white and whites can't be black
黑人没法变成白人白人也没法变黑
Why you wanna act like someone else

All you gotta do is just be yourself
你要做的就是你自己
We're all the same color underneath
本质上我们都流着一样的血
Short Dog's in the house you'd better listen to me
短狗在这里你最好听我说
Never be ashamed of what you are
任何时候都不要妄自菲薄
Proud to be black stand tall at heart
以自己的肤色为豪 发自内心的自信
Even though some people give you no respect
尽管有人狗眼看人低
Be intelligent when you put 'em in check
做个聪明人用头脑约束自己
Cause when you're ignorant you get treated that way
如果你太无知 受到惩罚也是理所应当
And when they throw you in jail you got nothing to say
他们把你扔进局子你也无话可说
So if you don't listen it's not my fault
如果你不认真听 那就不是我的错了
I'll be getting paid while you'll be paying the cost
我走我的阳光道你走你的独木桥
Sitting in the jailhouse running your mouth
在局子里你也只能耍耍嘴皮子
While me and my peoples try to get out
我和我的兄弟们却在想办法离开
