(It's my life)
(这就是我的人生)
Yeah the only one that I'll ever know
这是我唯一知晓的生活
Feeling extra low
陷入无尽低谷
Please let me go
请放我自由
Hold on no
不 再坚持一下
(It's my life)
(这就是我的人生)
Yeah the only that I'll ever know
这是我唯一知晓的生活
And it stressed me so
它让我如此煎熬
Oh God bless me soul
愿主垂怜我魂
Hold on
坚持住
Wether it's the projects or a trailer park mess
无论是贫民窟还是拖车公园的狼藉
Raggedy the apartment complex
破旧不堪的公寓楼里
With a stressed out single mom sitting on the steps
疲惫的单亲妈妈坐在台阶上
Waiting on the mailman looking for a check
等待邮差寻找救济支票
Boys on the corner pushing out the chest
街角少年们挺起胸膛
Questing for anything that resembles respect
只为寻求一丝尊严的微光
Young girls swinging their hair with every step
年轻女孩摇曳秀发 步步生姿
Looking for affection settling for sex
渴求温暖却只能委身于欲望
Bodies decorated with tattoos and chains
纹身与锁链装饰着身躯
Trying to put armor between you and pain
试图筑起铠甲抵御伤痛
Wood grain steering wheel the bass bang
木质方向盘震动着重低音
But not enough to drown out the hatred in your brain
却盖不住脑中翻涌的恨意
The only out is smoking out
唯有吞云吐雾才能暂得解脱
Get lean get wet get meth get tore down
沉沦迷醉 支离破碎
Cause who the hell would want to stick around
这世间谁愿在此停留
Put me in a haze I ain't never coming out
让我深陷迷雾 永无出路
(It's my life)
(这就是我的人生)
Yeah the only one that I'll ever know
这是我唯一知晓的生活
Feeling extra low
陷入无尽低谷

Hold on
坚持住
They just wanna get you in the system stick you into prison
他们只想把你塞进体制 关进监狱
List you in the military ship you to the desert
登记入伍 发配荒漠
Pigs don't exist for you to make a decent living
这世道根本不给你体面活路
But we got three illegal wars to shoot the pigs from
但我们还要面对三场非法战争 对抗那些压迫者
Keep stressing marvels and personal decisions
不断强调奇迹和个人选择
Tell me what's marvel about these conditions
告诉我这些困境中有什么奇迹可言
Who decided you don't got enough to teach children
是谁判定你没有足够资源教育孩子
Stay spending billions on stadiums and prisons
却把数十亿挥霍在球场和监狱
How many roles can folks really choose
人们真正能有多少选择
When you're oppressed only three lead to you
当被压迫时 只有三条路可走
First one is follow the rules and stay in school
第一条是循规蹈矩 继续读书
Be the square dude that's a society approves

Get a little job or a shitty apartment
找份微薄工作或蜗居陋室
Or a sub-par mortgage in a failing house margin
背负次级贷款在贬值房产中挣扎
The after your life dedication and hardship
耗尽一生奉献与艰辛后
You died just as poor as you was when you started
离世时依旧一贫如洗
F**k that what's up with the second option
去他的 难道没有其他选择
You could always hit the corner and try to get it popping
不如混迹街头碰碰运气
Get fast guap when you're out dropping and clocking
在街头巷尾快速捞点快钱
But chances are that you'll probably die violent
但很可能你会死于暴力
The best hope that you got is getting nada
你最大的希望就是一无所有
And end up with a job in a prison metal shop
最终在监狱的金属车间工作
They ain't paying nothing but three hots and a cot
他们只提供三餐一宿
Don't you know that's the biggest hustle they got
难道你不知道这是他们最大的骗局
Or door three you can get on that welfare
第三条路你可以领取救济
But they ain't trying to help they'll put you in hell there
但他们并非真心相助只会让你堕入地狱
Give you just enough so you're not gonna starve
施舍刚够让你不至于饿死
And constantly harass you while you're looking for a job
在你求职路上 骚扰从未停歇
Do lock up and someone that got you to punch a clock
铁窗内外 有人逼你打卡度日
And they found about it and your check is getting dot
东窗事发后 薪水被克扣殆尽
Can't win for losing dehumanizing
越挣扎越沉沦 尊严被碾碎
You'll never get caught up you caught up in a cycle
永远逃不出 这恶性循环的牢笼
