power man

I know a man
曾經有這麼一個人
Hes a powerful man
他有著至高的權利
Hes got the people in his power in the palm of his hand
他的手中掌控著無數人的命運
He started at the bottom and he worked his way up
他從社會低端起步卻不停向上
Now hes never going to stop until he reaches the top
在抵達山頂之前永不言棄
[01:40.64][03:21.01]Its the same old story
這是一個被重複了無數遍的老故事
its the same old dream
這是一個被追求了無數次的舊夢想
Its power man, power man, and all that it can bring
是他帶來了這一切
If you want your money, you better stand in the line
如果以渴望錢財，你最好站在這些努力向上的人的行列中
Cos youll only end up picking up nickels and dimes
不然你只能以乞討為生
You call him names and he sits and grins
你叫住了那個偉人他卻笑了
cos everybody else is just a sucker to him.
因為別人對他而言都不足為道
And hes got my money, but Ive got my faith
他得到了他的錢財，我卻有了我的信仰
Powerman, powerman, Ill never be your slave
即便你是偉人，我也不會是你的奴隸
[03:27.61]Its the same old game
還是那個故事
Power man, power man, driving me insane
還是那個夢想
People tried to conquer the world napoleon and genghis khan
讓我逐漸瘋狂
Hitler tried and mussolini too
人類都想像拿破崙和成吉思汗那樣征服世界
Powerman dont need to fight, powerman dont need no guns
如同穆斯林和希特勒那樣不停嘗試
Powerman got money on his side
他卻不用戰鬥，也不用槍支
Well Im not rich and Im not free
金錢站在你的一邊
But Ive got my girl and she got me
也許我很貧窮也不自由
Hes got my money and my publishing rights
但我心愛的女孩站在我的身邊
But Ive got my girl and Im alright
你奪走了我的錢財以及權利
And she got me going,
但只要我的心上人和我相依相守我便會接著努力
and she keeps me sane
她鼓勵著我前行
But powerman, powerman, got money on the brain
她讓我保持理智
Powerman , powerman driving me insane
然而那個偉人卻已錢迷心竅
