Lyrics
The way I feel sometimes it’s too hard to sit still
– Fason mwen santi pafwa li twò difisil pou chita toujou
Things are so passionate, times are so real
– Bagay yo tèlman pasyone, tan yo tèlman reyèl
Sometimes I try an chill mellow down blowin’ smoke
– Pafwa mwen eseye yon frèt mellow desann soufle lafimen
Smile on my face but it’s really no joke
– Souri sou figi m men li vrèman pa yon blag
You feel it in the streets, the people breathe without hope
– Ou santi li nan lari yo, moun yo respire san espwa
They goin’ through the motion, they dimmin’ down, they focus
– Yo ale nan mouvman an, yo dimmin ‘ desann, yo konsantre
The focus gettin’ clear and the light turn sharp
– Konsantre a ap resevwa klè ak limyè a vire byen file
And the eyes go teary, the mind grow weary
– Ak je yo ale dlo nan je, lespri a vin fatige
I speak it so clearly, sometimes ya don’t hear me
– Mwen pale li tèlman klè, pafwa ou pa tande m’
I push it past the bass, no nations gotta feel me
– Mwen pouse l ‘pase bass la, pa gen okenn nasyon gen santi m’
I feel it in my bones, black, I’m so wide awake
– Mwen santi li nan zo m, nwa, mwen tèlman byen reveye
That I hardly ever sleep, my flows forever deep
– Ke mwen diman janm dòmi, koule mwen pou tout tan fon
And it’s volumes or scriptures when I breath on a beat
– Epi li se volim oswa ekriti lè mwen respire sou yon bat
My presence speak volumes before I say a word
– Prezans mwen pale anpil anvan mwen di yon mo
I’m everywhere, penthouse, pavement and curb
– Mwen toupatou, penthouse, twotwa ak bò wout
Cradle to the grave, talk’ll lead you on a shell
– Cradle nan kavo a, pale ap mennen ou sou yon koki
Universal ghetto life holla black, you know it well
– Lavi ghetto inivèsèl holla nwa, ou konnen li byen
Quiet storm, vital form pen pushed it right across
– Tanpèt trankil, plim fòm vital pouse li dwa atravè
Mind is a vital force, high level right across
– Lespri se yon fòs vital, wo nivo dwa atravè
Shoulders the lions raw voice is the siren
– Zepòl vwa lyon yo se sirèn lan
I swing round, ring out and bring down the tyrant
– Mwen balanse alantou, sonnen soti ak pote desann tiran an
Shocked, a small act could knock a giant lopsided
– Choke, yon ti zak ta ka frape yon gwo dissided
The world is so dangerous, there’s no need for fightin’
– Mond lan tèlman danjere, pa gen okenn bezwen pou goumen
Suttins tryna hide like the struggle won’t find ’em
– Suttins eseye kache tankou lit la pa pral jwenn ’em
And the sun bust through the clouds to clearly remind him
– Ak solèy la kraze nan nwaj yo pou raple l klèman
Everywhere, penthouse, pavement and curb
– Tout kote, penthouse, twotwa ak bò wout
Cradle to the grave, talk’ll lead you on a shell
– Cradle nan kavo a, pale ap mennen ou sou yon koki
Universal ghetto life holla black, you know it well
– Lavi ghetto inivèsèl holla nwa, ou konnen li byen
What it is? You know, they know
– Ki sa li ye? Ou konnen, yo konnen
What it is? We know, y’all know
– Ki sa li ye? Nou konnen, nou tout konnen
What is is? Ecstatic, there it is
– Ki sa ki se? Ekstaz, se la li ye
What it is? You know, we know
– Ki sa li ye? Ou konnen, nou konnen
What it is? They know, y’all know
– Ki sa li ye? Yo konnen, nou tout konnen
What it is? You don’t know? Here it is
– Ki sa li ye? Ou pa konnen? Men li
What it is? You know, we know
– Ki sa li ye? Ou konnen, nou konnen
What it is? They know, y’all know
– Ki sa li ye? Yo konnen, nou tout konnen
What it is? You don’t know? Here it is
– Ki sa li ye? Ou pa konnen? Men li
Sit and come, relax, riddle off the mac, it’s the patch
– Chita epi vini, detann, devinèt sou mac la, li nan patch la
I’ma soldier in the middle of Iraq
– Mwen se yon sòlda Nan Mitan Irak
Well, say about noonish commin’ out the whip
– Oke, di sou midi commin ‘ soti baton an
And lookin’ at me curious, a young Iraqi kid
– Epi gade m kirye, yon jèn timoun Irakyen
Carrying laundry, what’s wrong G, hungry?
– Pote rad, Ki sa Ki Mal G, grangou?
No, gimme oil or get fuck out my country
– Non, ban m lwil oliv oswa jwenn fuck soti peyi mwen an
And in Arabian barkin’ other stuff
– Ak Nan Lang Arab barkin ‘ lòt bagay
Till his moms come grab him and they walk off in a rush
– Jiskaske manman l vini pran l epi yo mache ale nan yon prese
I’m like surely hope that we can fix our differences soon
– Mwen se tankou siman espere ke nou ka ranje diferans nou byento
White apples, I’m breakin’ on
– Pòm blan, mwen ap kraze sou
You take everything, why not just take the damn food like
– Ou pran tout bagay, poukisa pa jis pran manje a madichon tankou
I don’t understand it, on another planet?
– Mwen pa konprann li, sou yon lòt planèt?
Fifty one of this stuff, how I’m gonna manage?
– Senkant youn nan bagay sa yo, ki jan mwen pral jere?
And increasing the sentiment, gentlemen
– Ak ogmante santiman an, mesye
Gettin’ down on that middle eastern instruments
– Jwenn desann sou sa enstriman mwayen oryan
Realized trappin’ is crap
– Reyalize trappin ‘ se fatra
Walk over kicked one of my fabulous raps
– Walk over te voye yon kout pye sou youn nan rap fabuleux mwen
Arab they well wished they glad wrapped
– Arab yo byen swete yo kontan vlope
Now the kid considered like an Elvis of Baghdad
– Koulye a jenn ti kabrit la konsidere kòm Yon Elvis Nan Bagdad
What it is?
– Ki sa li ye?
What it is?
– Ki sa li ye?
What it is? You know, they know
– Ki sa li ye? Ou konnen, yo konnen
What it is? We know, y’all know
– Ki sa li ye? Nou konnen, nou tout konnen
What is is? Ecstatic, there it is
– Ki sa ki se? Ekstaz, se la li ye
What it is? You know, we know
– Ki sa li ye? Ou konnen, nou konnen
What it is? They know, y’all know
– Ki sa li ye? Yo konnen, nou tout konnen
What it is? You don’t know? Here it is
– Ki sa li ye? Ou pa konnen? Men li
What it is? You know, we know
– Ki sa li ye? Ou konnen, nou konnen
What it is? They know, y’all know
– Ki sa li ye? Yo konnen, nou tout konnen
What it is? You don’t know? Here it is
– Ki sa li ye? Ou pa konnen? Men li
