[Verse 1:] [诗歌1 ： ]

I know a place where the trees don't grow 我知道一个地方，树木不长

Just another place where niggaz live low 只是一个在那里的兄弟们住的地方低

I know a place where life is fucked up 我知道那里的生活是一团糟的地方

Make a wrong move and your ass get stuck up 做出错误的举动，你的屁股卡住了

Time ain't nothin but a frame of mind 时间是没什么，但心里的一帧

And life is like a mountain or a steep ass climb 而生活就像一座大山或陡峭的屁股爬

I've been lookin for a place to leave 我一直在看着一个地方离开

The only free place is inside of me 唯一自由的地方是我的内心

So let's take a trip, and you don't need a grip 因此，让我们走一趟，你并不需要一握

But you better be equipped cause it might be some shit 但是你最好配的原因可能是一些狗屎

African-American, nothin but a nigga 非裔美国人，没什么，但一个黑人

Had our fingers on the trigger, but I pulled mine quicker 有我们的手指放在扳机，但我把矿快

I know a place where there ain't no calm and 我知道一个地方，那里是不是没有平静，

You better stay away if you're soft like Charmin 你最好远离，如果你喜欢柔和Charmin牌

South Central, Los Angeles, Watts, and Compton 南环，洛杉矶，瓦，康普顿

A nigga on the west coast on his way to Harlem 途中哈林西海岸那个黑鬼

Now it's time to step into the light (Light) 现在，是时候步入光（光）

Put up your dukes, there's gonna be a fight (Fight) 把你的公爵，但将是一个战斗（战斗）

And when it's time to fight, you better fight right 而当它的时间来打，你最好争取权利

Cause if it don't fight right, out goes the light 因为如果它不打吧，走出去的光

Take a close look at what I'm freakin on 仔细观察一下，我就刻着

Niggaz think I'm tweekin, but I'm speakin on 兄弟们觉得我tweekin ，但我speakin上

Subject matter, data 题材，数据

Information that I gather 我收集信息

Through my travels 通过我的旅行

Cause the hardest of the hard, hit hardcore killer 原因是最难的辛苦，打铁杆杀手

Can't stop the slug of a nine millimeter 不能停止9毫米的蛞蝓

Everybody thinks they know, but they know not 每个人都认为他们知道，但他们不知道

If they haven't caught a cap on the block *gunshot* 如果他们没有抓到一个上限块*枪伤*

So shine up your boots and pick up the pieces 当这样照在你的靴子，收拾残局

Grab a fresh pair of khakis with the sharp ass creases 抢一双崭新的卡其布与锋利的折痕屁股

Ring the alarm, here comes the storm 敲响了警钟，来这里的风暴

I got a firearm on my way to Harlem 我得到了枪支对我的方式来哈林

   

[Verse 3:] [诗歌3 ： ]

I know a place where the sun don't shine 我知道一个地方，太阳不发光

Everybody is a victim of neighborhood crime 每个人都是邻里犯罪的受害者

I know a place where niggaz walk the line 我知道一个地方，兄弟们走的路线

One false step and they must do time 一失足，他们必须做的时间

Since I'm in the same boat 因为我在同一条船上

I must stay afloat 我必须生存下去

And sing every note 唱的每一个音符

From the quotes that they wrote 从他们写的报价

So, I look into the past and walk the path of the greats 所以，我回顾过去，走伟人之路

So I wont make the same mistakes that sealed my ancestors fates 所以，我不会让那封我的祖先命运同样的错误

If I had to be a slave I'd rather be in my grave 如果我必须成为一个奴隶，我宁愿在我的坟墓

If I get in how many lives could I save? 如果我能有多少的生命，我可以救吗？

One, two, three, a hundred, a thousand 一，二，三，百，千

My heart is poundin, the devil keeps soundin 我的心脏poundin ，恶魔不断soundin

But he don't want my money, he wants my soul 但他不希望我的钱，他要了我的灵魂

So I reach like a tree, and like a weed I grow 所以我到像一棵树，像杂草等我长大

My stomach is full, but my mind is starvin 我的胃是满的，但我的心是starvin

Rollin in a G ride on my way to Harlem 罗林在A G骑我的方式来哈林
