The World Is Yours (Live)
So I was talking about this music and uhh
嗯...當我談到音樂
To my man earlier, Green Lantern, I said
在很早的時候跟老哥Green Lantern(音樂會現場的DJ),我說道
I wrote: 'The word best—
我寫下了:“
I'm thinkin' a word best describin' my life
我在思考哪個詞可以描述我的生活
To name my daughter, my strength.
那便是我女兒的名字,我的力量
My son, the star will be my resurrection.'
我的兒子,天上的群星,都將是我涅槃的資本“(原曲的歌詞)
I didn't know I would have kids at all when I wrote at 20
在我20歲寫下這話時,我並不知道以後我會有孩子
Some years ago, I had a daughter then I had a son just like
幾年前,我有了女兒,接下來兒子也來了就像
I setted that rhyme
這歌詞一樣實在
You put down stuff on that paper, you'd be surprised
在那張紙上寫東西,就像神筆馬良一樣驚訝呢
The atmosphere reads it, the universe reads it
大氣層上面的人,乃至宇宙都在看著呢
And hears it, they can hear our thoughts, this universe
他們會仔細傾聽我們的想法
Be careful what you're thinking
這個宇宙對我們的想法小心呵護
Because it doesn't know
因為它不知道
How to differentiate what you mean with those thoughts
如何從你的想法中辨別出你的思想
It will—it will give it to you though
不過,這都將會帶給你
I was blessed, I was lucky with that
我被上帝保佑,我真是幸運呢
(It's yours)
(屬於你)
(it's—it's—it's—it's yours)
(這都屬於你)
I sip the Dom P, watchin' Gandhi 'til I'm charged
喝了幾口香檳王,看著《甘地傳》,我的心中開始充滿鬥志
Writin' in my book of rhymes, all the words past the margin
我在我的歌詞本里寫了起來,一行行字句都已經超出了紙的邊際
Behold the mic I'm throbbin', my movement
我握起了麥克風,心臟就像機芯一樣怦怦地跳動
Understandable smooth shit that murderers move with
我的說唱流暢易懂,殺手們都愛聽
The thief's theme, play me at night, they won 't act right
這是俠盜的主題歌,在晚上聽我的歌,他們會四處作亂
The fiend of hip-hop has gotme stuck like a crack pipe
這嘻哈音樂讓我像抽葉子一樣上癮
The mind activation,
我會活化你們的思想
React like I'm facin' time like Pappy Mason
現在我就像梅森老爹一樣
With pens I'm embracin'
雖然身處牢籠,但我不會丟棄手上的筆
Wipe the sweat off my dome, spit the phlegm on the streets
拭去臉上的汗水,向街上吐了口痰
Suede Timbs on my feet makes my cipher complete
腳穿著絨面天伯倫靴子,有了它我一身的裝備才感覺完整
Whether cruisin' in a Six cab or Montero Jeep
不管是坐著印度阿三開的計程車,還是買輛蒙特羅吉普上路
I can't call it, the beats make me fallin' asleep
我都付不起錢,這節奏上我漸漸入睡
I keep fallin', but never fallin' six feet deep
我的思緒不斷下墜,但好在我不會下到18層地獄
I'm out for presidents to represent me (Say what?)
我要讓總統來代表我(說什麼?)
I'm out for presidents to represent me (Say what?)
我要讓總統來代表我(說什麼?)
President Barack Obama, he represents me

Aimin' guns in all my baby pictures
對著我那些私生子的照片不停射擊
Beef with housing police, release scriptures that's maybe Hitler's
我和所有片警結怨,因為他們就像希特勒一樣不停頒布法案
Yet I 'm the mild, money-gettin' style, rollin' foul

不能好好過日子
We sell it, smoke pays, while all the old folks pray
那些缺錢的日子裡,我們只能靠賣菸為生,而上一輩的老傢伙們
Soakin' their sins in trays of holy water
只知道向耶穌祈禱,希望將罪孽浸入聖水盆中得到寬恕
Odds against Nas are slaughter
除了把我殺害,我Nas不怕任何困難

He'll lead a right direction
但我知道這傢伙會引領以後的潮流
How you livin'? Large, a broker charge, cards are mediocre
要怎樣才能過上富裕的日子,靠經紀人,我卡裡的錢只會越來越少
You flippin' coke or playin' spit, spades, and strip poker?
是去賣粉,還是去玩賭博撲克,但就怕你到頭來輸得精光

I'm deep by sound alone, caved inside, 1,000 miles from home
我的音樂獨一無二,巧奪天工,無人能及
I need a new nigga for this black cloud to follow
我期待一個全新的自己,一個能引領整片黑雲的自己
'Cause while it's over me it's too dark to see tomorrow
因為當黑雲籠罩上空時,我甚至看不清明天的模樣
Tryin' to maintain, I flip, fill the clip to the tip
但是為了生存,我還是得去賣粉,把子彈上膛
Picturin' my peeps not eatin ' can make my heartbeat skip

And I'm amped up, they locked the champ up
現在我興奮至極,他們只能把我鎖了起來

Stabbin' women like the Phantom
