R:Between you and Biggie it was like, who's going to rule the
圖怕摳，你覺得你和biggie之間，誰更有資格去
R:the Nigga kingdom and shit, basically, know what I'm saying?
去統治這個黑人的國度，引領風尚？ (狹義音樂上的)
R:I was like, this is like a fucking election
你知道我說中文不6，所以，我的意思是，這就像一場該死的選舉
2:It is that
我懂的
2:Me and Biggie's situation is smaller than that, it's like…
其實我覺得我和biggie之間的情況沒你們說的那麼誇張...
救護車：污污污污污污污，圖怕摳胸部中了七槍，大家讓讓路
ambulance: wuwuwuwuwu
[Hook]
我很想知道在我葬禮上人們會嘲笑我嗎？
And I wonder if they'll laugh when I'm dead?
如果我為戰而生，為何我還為生而戰？
Why am I fighting to live if I'm just living to fight?
為何我四處求助，大家卻置若罔聞？
Why am I trying to see when there ain't nothing in sight?
為何我嘗試給予，人們卻不給機會？
Why am I trying to give when no one gives me a try?
如果我為死而生，為何我拼死生存？
Why am I dying to live if I'm just living to die?
我從貧民窟長大
[Verse 1 - The Notorious B.I.G.]
接觸到了這個生意圈子，從一盎司的量，開始越做越大
Check it, I grew up a fuckin' screw-up
我們通宵弄貨，老子當時覺得老子要Frank White附身了。 Frank White——電影king of new york中毒梟之王
Got introduced to the game, got a ounce and fuckin' blew up
我們必須搞下髮型，改變下面貌——怕popo認出來
Choppin' rocks overnight. The nigga Biggie Smalls trying to turn into the black Frank White
全城都在尋找這兩個popo——牛奶盒子上經常印尋人啟事
We had to grow dreads to change our description
但大家都知道，他倆早被我們做了
Two cops is on the milk box missin'
一把子彈，全都是塗了特氟龍的——特氟龍子彈能穿透防彈衣，打popo好使
Show they toes, you know they got stepped on
試想下，我一個人被一群popo緊追不捨
A fistful of bullets, a chest full of Teflon
但我太胖了，沒走幾步就喘不過氣
Runnin' from the police, picture that
所以我當機立斷，塔下反殺
Nigga, I'm too fat, I fuck around and catch a asthma attack
他一倒下，我就把他的槍順走了，動作專業得很
That's why I bust back, it don't phase me
慶祝我能夠逃脫，把他的槍賣了，花天酒地
When he drop, take his Glock, and I'm Swayze
popo省省吧，別妨礙我賺錢
Celebrate my escape, sold the Glock, bought some weight
我很想知道在我葬禮上人們會嘲笑我嗎？
Lay back, I got some money to make, motherfucker
如果我為戰而生，為何我還為生而戰？
[Hook]
為何我四處求助，大家卻置若罔聞？
And I wonder if they'll laugh when I'm dead?
為何我嘗試給予，人們卻不給機會？
Why am I fighting to live if I'm just living to fight?
如果我為死而生，為何我拼死生存？
Why am I trying to see when there ain't nothing in sight?
到我了到我了，我仍懷念和popo一起
Why am I trying to give when no one gives me a try ?
一起飆車，把他們撞個稀爛
Why am I dying to live if I'm just living to die?
當時我給高興壞了，一腳油門踩到底，一路鳴槍
[Verse 2 - 2Pac]
我們那會圖樣，圖森破，但我們那時候走心
(It's on me), but still I'm having memories
在黑暗中，我們不知道能不能穿過那些阻礙，走向光明
Of high speed when the cops crashed
我有過很多夢想和希望
As I laugh, pushing the gas while my Glocks blast
但對於叛徒，我下手絕不手軟
We was young and we was dumb, but we had heart
愛慕虛榮的女人，還是會圍著我轉
In the dark, will we survive through the bad parts ?
拍了部小h片，現在全世界都要搞我
Many dreams is what I had, and plenty wishes
條子都要搞我，我有什麼辦法
No hesitation in extermination of these snitches
但我很淡定，小口喝著窖藏22年的農夫山泉
Envious bitches, they still continue to pursue me
現在媒體們也來測試我
A couple of movies , now the whole world's tryna to screw me
帶著些辣雞問題，想要來問倒我
Even the cops tried to sue me, so what can I do?
我看到的只有苦難與不幸，這是我的精神源泉
But stay true, sippin' 22's of brew
我和popo的淵源，你看下犯罪率就知道了
nd now media is trying to test me
我兩個重要的伙伴二進宮，再被抓就出不來了。他們決定
Got the press asking questions, trying to stress me
[學biggie]反殺
Misery is all I see, that's my mind state
叫喊著“圖怕摳五環內無敵”，把彈夾都打光了
My history with the police is, check the crime rate
可能早已厭倦整天躲避popo的生活了吧
My main man had two strikes, slipped, got arrested and flipped
我很想知道在我葬禮上人們會嘲笑我嗎？
He screamed 'Thug Life!' and emptied the clip
如果我為戰而生，為何我還為生而戰？
Got tired of runnin' from the police
為何我四處求助，大家卻置若罔聞？
And I wonder if they'll laugh when I'm dead?
為何我嘗試給予，人們卻不給機會？
Why am I fighting to live if I'm just living to fight?
如果我為死而生，為何我拼死生存？
Why am I trying to see when there ain't nothing in sight?
人們想要新的領導人，而我的野心，不止西岸，還有東岸
Why am I trying to give when no one gives me a try?
你知道嗎，這讓我大吃一斤
Why am I dying to live if I'm just living to die?
聽到他的死訊我驚呆了
[Outro - 2Pac]
我真的很吃驚，他是個很堅強的人
They wanted a new regime. And my regime includes East coast, includes West coast
你懂的，強無敵，吃人
[The Notorious B.I.G.]
所以我聽到他遭到槍擊的消息，我第一反應是“md又來炒作？”
I was more shocked than anything, you know what I'm saying?
他總是在槍林彈雨中出生入死
But I wasn't more shocked of him dying
本以為他能渡劫，像往常一樣
I was more shocked of him... Pac is a strong dude, yo
然後拿這事出幾張唱片，恢復往常
I know dude, you know what I'm saying? Real strong
但這次，他真的死了
So when they was like he got shot, I was just more like, 'Again?' you know what I'm sayin'?
我只能說，阿西吧
He always getting shot, or shot at
真的太讓我驚訝了
He going to pull through this one again
雖然我們有很多瓜葛
Make a few records about it, and it's going to be over
但我不希望任何人逝去
You know what I'm saying? But when he, when he died
因為陰間，可沒有回頭路
I was just like, 'whoa', you know what I'm saying?
Kinda took me by
I mean even though we was going through our drama
I would never wish death on nobody, you know what I'm sayin'
Because there ain't no coming back from that
