I welcome with my hands

And the red sun sinks at last

Verse 1
If i could recollect before my hood days
若能回想起 街头岁月之前的光景
I'd sit and reminisce thinkin of bliss of the good days
我愿静坐追忆 那些纯真年代的极乐时光
I stop and stare at the younger my heart goes to 'em
我驻足凝视着后辈 满心悲悯
They geussed, it was stress that they under
他们猜 这种窒息感 便是生存的重压
And nowadays things changed
如今 时过境迁
Everyone's ashamed of the youth, cuz the truth look strange
世人皆以青年为耻 只因真相已变得荒诞陆离
And for me it's reversed, we left them a world that's cursed and it hurts
在我眼里却恰恰相反 我们留给他们的是个被诅咒的世界 隐隐作痛
Cuz any day they'll push the button
因为毁灭的按钮 随时可能被引爆
And all good men like malcolm x and bobby hutton died for nottin
像马尔科姆·X和鲍比·赫顿这样的义士 难道都白白牺牲了吗
Don't it make you get teary , the world looks dreary
这难道不令你泪眼模糊 满目凄凉？
When you wipe your eyes see it clearly
拭去泪水 且看清这真相
There's no need for you to fear me
你无需对我心存畏惧
If you take your time to hear me, maybe you can learn to cheer me
若你愿驻足倾听 或许能学会与我共鸣
It ain't about black or white, cuz we're human
无关黑白 众生皆为人
I hope we see the light before it's ruined
愿我们在毁灭降临前 寻得那抹微光

Tell me do you see that old lady, ain't it sad?
告诉我 你可曾见到那位老妇 岂不心酸？
Livin outta bags, but she's glad for the little things has
虽以破袋为家 却仍为微小的恩赐而欣慰
And over there there's a lady

Crack got her crazy, guess who's givin birth to a baby
毒品令她癫狂 谁能想到她正孕育着新生命
I don't trip and let it fade me
我不会迷失 亦不让现实将我抹去
From outta the frying pan we jumpin to another form of slavery
才出火坑 又坠入另一种形式的奴役
Even now i get discouraged
哪怕是现在 我偶尔也会感到心灰意冷
Wonder if they take it all back, will i still keep the courage?

I set goals, take control, drink out my own bottles
我定下目标 掌控命运 饮下属于我的苦乐
I make mistakes but learn from every one
我虽犯错 但从每一道伤痕中汲取教训
And when it's said and done
当尘埃落定
I bet this brotha be a better one
我坚信 这一介躯壳终将升华
If i upset you don't stress
若我冒犯了你 亦不必介怀
Never forget, that god isn't finished with me yet
莫要忘记 上苍对我的雕琢尚未结束
I feel his hand on my brain
我能感到 祂的神圣之手正抚过我的灵魂
When i write rhymes i go blind and let the lord do his thang
执笔落墨时我心如止水 任由神迹显现
But i'm less holy?
难道我就因此 不够神圣？
Cuz i took a puff of blunt and drink a beer with my homies
只因我曾与兄弟吞云吐雾 痛饮烈酒
Before we find world peace
在寻得世界和平之前
We gotta find peace and end the war on the streets
须先平息街头战火 寻回内心的宁静
