遇到一个在树林里玩的人
I met a man playin' in the woods
他弹的钢琴跑调了
His piano was off-key
但依旧温柔地为我歌唱
He sang to me softly
我敢打赌，就算可以，他也不会改正过来
I bet he wouldn't change it if he could
我家周围常有枪响
Gunshots ringin' in my hood
听着真的是太不（与梦想）合拍了
It sounds so off-beat
虽然我仍为这样的生活祷告
I'm prayin' they don't off me
但我敢保证，若是可以，我一定会改变它
I promise I'd change it if I could
究竟为何？
Oh, why? (Oh, why? Oh, why? Oh, why?)
百思不解
Oh, why? (Oh, why? Oh, why? Oh, why?)
焦头烂额
Oh, why? (Oh, why? Oh, why? Oh, why?)
毫无思绪
Oh, why? (Oh, why? Oh, why? Oh, why?)
茫然不解
Oh, why? (Oh, why? Oh, why? Oh, why?)
满腹疑团
Oh, why? (Oh, why? Oh, why? Oh, why?)
退居林中，被翠叶环绕
I retreat to the trees, surrounded by green, but I need
却依旧要为亲朋打拼
Need more for my kin and more for my team (Oh shit)
让歌词在不同的伴奏上起舞，我曲折摸索
Dance to a different type beat, off kilted rhythm
已小有所成，但我追寻更多
Took the traces of my feet, but I need more
得赶在我隐退幕后之前
Before I dip out of the scene
为了我的朋友家人们，也为了我的辉煌
For my niggas, for my queens, for the babies, for my rounds
为了让我们重拾皇冠，也为了让众人褪去冷漠
For my sisters missin' crowns, homies victims to apathy, like
蜂蜜滴在了我面前的桌上
Honey drippin' off the table in front of me, ah
世人都让我去追寻，但我心底却依旧向往新生
They say, "Go," but my heart still fights for the seed
他们用演出来捞钱，但我自灵魂里就抵触这种行为
They buy shows, but my soul shouldn't back the deed
究竟为何?
Oh, why? Oh, why? Why, why, why?
现在你发达了，我依旧挣扎着搏取自由
So, you get rich, I'ma try to get free, but
这两件事其实并不冲突
Not exclusive, mutually, but
但关键在于我得找到之间的平衡点
Oh, I, oh, I gotta find the balance between
有人说：生活就是地狱
Some say, "Life is just a Hell
我们能做的只有白白等待真正的自由
And it's here we wait until we dwell truly, truly, truly free"
也有些人说：平民窟里永远都出不了伟人
Some say, "Projects and ghettos and seeds that will never grow
精英只从高处来
All berries to see"
但我会陪你们度过夜晚，度过最黑暗的时光
I'll stay with you through the night and in the darkest times
我们将战斗到底，直到黎明到来
We'll fight through it all until we reach that dawn
我梦想着一个以爱为准则的世界
I dream of a world where love is the rule
两颗心总能靠在一起前行
Where hearts walk two by two
而我将能与你相伴
And I with you
我梦想着一个地方，在那孩子们的愿望总能实现
I dream of a place where a child's wish can always come true
而老人们总能重获活力
And the old and withered become renewed
我遇到一个在树林里玩的人
I met a man playin' in the woods
他弹的钢琴跑调了
His piano was off-key
但依旧温柔地为我歌唱
He sang to me softly
我敢打赌，就算可以，他也不会改正过来
I bet he wouldn't change it if he could
我家周围常有枪响
Gunshots ringin' in my hood
听着真的是太不合拍了

茫然不解
Oh, why? (Oh, why? Oh, why? Oh, why?)
满腹疑团
Oh, why? (Oh, why? Oh, why? Oh, why?)
生活的涟漪，世间的变化，竟都能被我尽收眼底
I can see the ripple, I can see the changes, oh, my
死神的存在，天使的声音，竟都能由我一人感受
I can feel the reaper, I can hear the angels, oh, I
双手合十，愿上帝保我平安，留我一息
Cross my heart for safety, hope I stay alive, oh, Lord
人们总是太容易偏激，但生活追寻的其实是心灵的平静
They always go too crazy, it's really peace of mind, good God
穷尽一生，我战而不歇，却就此让岁月飞逝
All my life, I had to fight, all my life, passin' by
碌碌一世，我奋笔疾书，终难避免寿终正寝
All my life, I had to write, all my life, I had to die
但我的牺牲，我的血汗，我的泪水必会得到回报
All I had to sacrifice, blood, sweat, and tears pays the price
开始梦想着更好的明天，让自己的精神高昂起来
Start to think the better day's tomorrow, keep my spirits high up
大雨倾盆，终于冲塌了压抑的房顶
When it rains, it pours, my ceiling go up
甘露入屋，教会了我的兄弟们什么是爱
Then it turn in my floor, then the gang show love
我便不再会怜惜自己的祝福和赞美
Then count my blessings, my praise goes up
从出生的那一刻起，我便注定是个大家伙
Big dawg, my nigga since day one
即使是日落之时，灯光亮起
When the Sun go down, when the lights go up
我仍不留余力奋斗致死，并坚守所获
Still ten toes down, I'ma keep mine tucked
若不慎大赚票子，我便打手以警醒自己
I'ma bang my buck, I'ma play my hand
故乡得到自由前，我绝不悔改
Then I ain't gon' change 'til I free my lands
我的双手，只能用来创造音乐
I'ma use my hands, I'ma play my songs
自由地舞蹈，心安理得地享我所获
I'ma play mine right 'til I prove my dance
歌唱曾犯下的过错，找到通往生活的钥匙
And the key to my life, I'ma sing my wrongs
成为那盏明灯，拍响双手
I'ma be that light, I'ma clap my hands
吞云吐雾，享受音乐
I'ma smoke my weed, see my bands
引导信仰，愉快活着
And I lead by faith, and I play my jam
或许你会觉得我（与现实）走调了
And you might think I'm out of tune
但这完全是我个人的行为，与你毫无瓜葛
But it ain't got shit to do you with you, oh my, God
你对自由的选择是无人能控制的
Your freedom is beyond anyone outside of yourself's controllin'
它不能买卖，不能送人，甚至不能被偷取
It can't be bought and sold, given away, or even stolen
这是一种神圣的全力，能至关紧要地滋养灵魂
It's a divine entitlement, vital to the nourishment of the soul
鼓励灵性成长，引导创造之河飘渺地流动，穿越宇宙
Encouragin' spiritual growth to channel the ethereal flow of creation's river across the cosmos
这种神圣的渗透，导致了意识的集中（自由引向团结）
This blessed osmosis, triggerin' consciousness to focus
这是一种超越时空维度的范例般的升华
And the paradigm ascension, transcendin' beyond all space and time dimensions
更不用提这还能满足我个人的心愿了
Not to mention my pinch off from an addiction
我曾一度沉迷于思索与苦行
Been addicted minds, been consistent in my grind
用我能找到的每一支笔来写下负面语句
Of usin' every pen and pencil I can find
最后空落得我个人的加速衰老
To elevate the state of decline
这把我的人生拖进泥潭里太深了，或许我一辈子都爬不回来
That's draggin' my people down so deep that the climb could never be done in a single lifetime
所以我改变写下的文字，重造准线，矫正我的生活
So I write life's lines, correction, my lines write life
几经修改，终于把我的生活整理的井井有条
Correction, my life lines right up
如今的唯一目的是写下并背诵能感动我的东西
When serving' my purpose to write and recite what touches
与那些能点燃我们的团结意识的景象
And sights ignite that unites us
所以我们终于可以停止跑离自由
So we can finally stop runnin', from freedom
对的
Yeah
