Once we have the knowledge of self as a people then we could be free
一旦我们作为一个民族拥有了对自我的认知，我们便能获得真正的自由
And no devil could ever enter the boundaries
任何邪恶都无法逾越我们的界限
I stand in the center around all these sounds I see
我站在声浪中央 见证这一切
Blessin' *****that I found the key
感恩 我找到了那把钥匙
That's how we be
这就是我们的方式
We are by no means ashamed of our cultural background
我们绝不以我们的文化根源为耻
Not a tad bit 'fraid of change
丝毫未曾畏惧改变
Look around it's the same ol' same ol' thang
环顾四周 还是那些陈芝麻烂谷子
Hey what's goin' on man How you doin' man
嘿 伙计 最近咋样 兄弟
Ahh you know I can't call it
唉 你懂的 我也说不清
Try to maintain overlooking these boundaries
试图保持本心 却总忽略这些界限
I gotta be righteous I gotta be me
我必须正直 我必须做自己
I gotta be conscious I gotta be free
我必须清醒 我必须自由
I gotta be able I gotta attack
我必须强大 我必须勇往直前
I gotta be stable I gotta be black
我必须保持镇定 我必须保持黑暗
Who is that surrounding me
是谁将我重重包围
Enemy enemy you crossed the wrong boundary poof
敌人，敌人，你已逾越界限，瞬息消散
Wicked witness wizardry
邪恶的见证，诡谲的幻术
Disappear from here and end up in a tree
从这里消失 最终归于树影
Crossed the wrong boundary
逾越了不该逾越的界限
Daddy-O
The sharp shooting wizard but not a Grand Dragon
我是神枪巫师却非巨龙至尊
A chop off the block but my pants ain't saggin'
初出茅庐的小子 但裤腿绝不垮垮
Got a strong a*s grip but my name ain't Money Grip
我掌控力超强 但别叫我金钱傀儡
Liked Gladys better when she sang with The Pips
更怀念格拉迪斯与派普斯乐队合作的岁月
And when it comes to strength I'm surely of the stronger
若论力量 我定是至强存在
And when it comes to death I pray my children live longer
若论生死 只求子女活得比我长久
Payback's a *****that's why I never borrow
报复是个贱人 所以我从不借贷
If the push come to shove I'd do a stick-up tomorrow
若被逼上绝路 我明天就持枪抢劫
With the group thing over and my flat top gone
随着群体束缚的消散，我的旧日形象也已不再
I'm livin' kinda lovely only *****above me
我活得潇洒惬意 唯有繁星在我头顶
Provin' that old time axiom -birds of a feather flock together
印证着那句古老的箴言——物以类聚，人以群分
Know where I'm coming from
了解我的来处与立场
Aceyalone
I see I saw I'm the future the past I'm me I'm y'all
我见证 我预见 我是未来也是往昔 我即自我 亦是你等
I'm the enemy friend and the law
我是敌人也是挚友 更是律法本身
The beginner then end-all
我是起始，亦是终焉
The Final Call the raw
最终的召唤 纯粹的本真
The win the loss the draw
胜利与失败 僵持与平局
The summit the peak the wall the downfall
巅峰与绝顶 高墙与坠落
The energizing uprising black nigger
那股充满活力的 奋起抗争的黑色力量
The wise the eyes the dirt
智慧与洞察 尘土与本源
The overall ball the earth
广阔的乾坤 以及大地
And most importantly the birth of a new generation of blackness
而最重要的是 一个新世代黑色精神的诞生
And we're forced to set our boundaries
我们被迫划清界限
I gotta be righteous I gotta be me
我必须正直 我必须做自己
I gotta be conscious I gotta be free
我必须清醒 我必须自由
I gotta be able to counterattack
我必须能够反击
I gotta be stable I gotta be black
我必须保持镇定 我必须保持黑暗
I gotta be open gotta be me and
我必须敞开心扉 必须做我自己
I gotta keep hopin' we're gonna be free
我必须怀抱希望 我们终将自由
Gotta be able to counterattack
必须具备反击的能力
Gotta be stable gotta be black
必须坚定不移 必须保持黑暗
