black like me

Little kid in a small town
小鎮上長大的孩子
I did my best just to fit in
我用盡全力融入這個世界
Broke my heart on the playground
在操場上他們說我跟別人不一樣
When they said I was different
這傷了我的心
Oh now, now I'm all grown up and nothing has changed
現在，現在的我已長大，而什麼都未曾改變
Yeah, it's still the same
是的，一切照舊
It's a hard life on easy street
在這片富裕的土地上我過著艱難的生活
Just white painted picket fences far as you can see
目及之處只有白漆的尖樁籬笆
If you think we live in the land of the free
假如你認為我們生活在自由的國度
You should try to be black like me
你應該試試看過我的生活
My daddy worked day and night
我的父親夜以繼日地工作
For an old house and a used car
就為了一處老舊的房屋和一輛舊車
Just to live that good life
就為了更美好的生活
It shouldn't be twice as hard
為什麼要這樣艱難
Oh now, now I'm all grown up and nothing has changed
而今，而今我已不再年少，一切都沒改變
Yeah, it's still the same
是的，一切仍然照舊
It's a hard life on easy street
在這片富饒的土地上我擁有艱難的生活
Just white painted picket fences far as you can see
目及之處只有白漆的尖樁籬笆
If you think we live in the land of the free
假如你認為我們生活在自由的國度
You should try to be, oh black like me
你應該試試看過我的生活
Oh I know I'm not the only one, oh yeah
我明白這樣的命運不止降臨我一人
Who feels like I, I don't belong
誰能體會我的心境，我不屬於這裡
It's a hard life on easy street
在這片富饒的土地上過著艱難的生活
Just white painted picket fences far as you can see
目及之處只有白漆的尖樁籬笆
And if you think we live in the land of the free
假如你認為我們生活在自由的國度
Then you should try to be, oh black like me
那你就應該試試看過我的生活
Oh, and someday we'll all be free
終有一天我們都會獲得自由
And I'm proud to be, oh black like me
而我將為自己是黑人無比驕傲
