Paroles
This is a matter of utmost urgency
You might even call it a police emergency
Suckers got ill when they finally heard the G Wasn’t sellin' out, they tried to murder me Reached for my jammy like a troop’s supposed to do Never let a sucker get too close to you
Heard 'em comin', ducked behind the wall
Then saw the whites of his eyes, the first one had to fall
Another bug creeped up the fire escape
Trying to sneak, I guess he snuck too late
Lookin' like a scene from Real Life Vice
The way his head fell apart like a block of solid ice
Uzi does it, come to think of it Dude had a nine, but his wasn’t as fast as mine
I heard the phone ring, should I answer?
This is gettin' serious as terminal cancer
And that is the final stage, my primal rage
Began to rise and I started to fantasize
How many more might try to rush the door
And blast their way in, hell, I ain’t stayin'
I opened the back door and felt the summer night heat
Saw a bunch of bugs wearin' white sheets
What else could it mean? I know it ain’t Halloween
The cross in the background burnin' made a ill scene
First I was panicky, then I was angry
One creep even had a rope ready to hang me Now who am I supposed to be? Eddie Spaghetti?
You come and vic Rob G any time you’re ready?
Fuck that, they had me trapped so I rushed back
They tried to bust me but they don’t have enough caps
I dipped, dived, slipped, slid, they missed me I had to move quick or they was bound to get me One bullet grazed me, that didn’t phase me What could I say? I was havin' a fucked up day
Stood up and took aim, my finger on the trigger
I shouted «Now let me hear you say nigger!»
Well anyway, nobody spoke or went for broke
The place was all clouded up from gunsmoke
And everything got quiet, I don’t buy it Just a second ago we had a riot
They must be plannin' attack or settin' a trap
Whatever the case you won’t get this black
Now I’m on the edge and there’s no denyin' it Whatever the hell might work I’m tryin' it Thought I was a target that they could get right quick
But I ain’t goin' out like no statistic
Another number, made me wonder
How many other brothers they’ve put under
I sat in the dark real still for a long time
Didn’t make a sound cos I’ve got a strong mind
Made my way to the street, it was daybreak
Must’ve fallen asleep, but for Pete’s sake
I didn’t see the enemy tryin' to put an end to me The night before, my finger trigger was sore
I went in the house to get a fresh clip
And then I woke up an' shit…
(It's a bad dream, man. That’s all, man, you know what I’m sayin'?
Guess I was just buggin' or somethin', man…)
Traduction des paroles
Maintenant, je suis sur le bord et il n'y a pas de denyin ' it quoi que l'enfer pourrait fonctionner, je suis en train d'essayer, je pensais que j'étais une cible qu'ils pourraient obtenir rapidement
Mais je ne sors pas comme une statistique
Un autre numéro, m'a fait me demander
Combien d'autres frères ils ont mis sous
Je me suis assis dans le noir réel encore pendant longtemps
Je n'ai pas fait de bruit parce que j'ai un esprit fort
Fait mon chemin de la rue, c'était l'aube
Doit suis tombé endormi, mais pour l'amour de Pete
Je n'ai pas vu l'ennemi essayer de mettre fin à moi la nuit précédente, ma gâchette du doigt était douloureuse
Je suis allé dans la maison pour obtenir un nouveau clip
Et puis je me suis réveillé une merde…
(C'est un mauvais rêve, l'homme. C'est tout, mec, tu vois ce que je veux dire?
J'imagine que j'étais juste en train de déconner, mec…)
