Hip Hop My Friend - Pep Love

Hip Hop My Friend - Pep Love
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
I got a hole where my heart used to be
我心房空空如也 徒留旧日伤痕
I'm a real true artist
我是纯粹艺术家
Put all of my heart in this
倾注全部心血于此
I live for the basslines and guitar riffs
为贝斯轰鸣与吉他嘶吼而活
But too modest
却始终谦逊如初
The music biz is a vast sea
音乐产业似汪洋
And you know where the sharks is
而你早知鲨鱼潜伏何处
I discovered hip-hop as a little tyke
幼时初遇嘻哈 便注定此生沉沦
Before I kissed a girl or ever rid a bike
在我初吻女孩或骑上单车之前
There was nothin' about it the kid didn't like
这少年对说唱就充满无限热恋
So an obsession was born for written rhymes ripping mics
执迷于押韵创作 沉醉在麦克风前
My astute pursuit wasn't about loot to boot
我敏锐的追求从不为金钱
I studied the game from root to fruit
潜心钻研这门艺术 从根源到果实
People gathered in flocks hip-hop had the block locked
人群蜂拥而至 嘻哈占据街头
And had us thinking out of the box
让我们突破思维桎梏
The time we were living in it was a testament
那个时代就是我们信仰的见证
For before the corporation would invest in it
在资本还未青睐之时
And now they acting brand new
如今他们却故作陌生
I'm waving a flag for the culture
我高扬着文化的旗帜
They lookin' at me like I'm a d**n fool
他们视我如痴人
You would always come around
你总在顺境时出现
Hip-hop hip-hop hip-hop
嘻哈 嘻哈 嘻哈
But when I needed a friend
当我需要援手之际
Oh you can never be found
你却消失无踪
Hip-hop hip-hop
嘻哈 嘻哈
You are my friend
你是我挚友
What's really relevant
何为真正重要
Is it good in the hood if it ain't selling
若无人问津 街头是否认可
And what is you telling me
你究竟想对我说什么
Back when we was back spinning the party was packed
当年我们打碟时 派对人潮涌动
And it wasn't nobody to stack digits
不为名利追逐
They did it for the kids on the block
只为街区孩子们而唱
Instead of banging
不再只是敲打节拍
They was hanging out doing that up rock flow rock
他们摇摆着即兴舞步 随性律动
Hip-hop was there when nobody else cared
当世界漠不关心时 嘻哈始终相伴
No education no healthcare or welfare
没有教育 没有医保 没有救济
The Bronx burning we turning into an inferno
布朗克斯在燃烧 我们化作烈焰
What do we learn to know when we ain't earning dough
身无分文时 我们学会了什么
We got greedier when the media showed up
媒体出现时 我们变得贪婪
And got needier when the city disowned us
当城市抛弃我们 我们愈发渴望
I guess it was tryna find a way out the projects
或许只是想逃离贫民区的桎梏
And that gentrification is the process to progress
而城市更新是通往进步的必经之路
God bless the child with the heavenly trust fund
上帝眷顾含着金汤匙出生的孩子
The heaviest lump sum that come from the slums
却让最沉重的财富来自街头巷尾
You would always come around
你总在顺境时出现
Hip-hop hip-hop hip-hop
嘻哈 嘻哈 嘻哈
And when I needed a friend
当我最需要知己时
Oh you can never be found
你却消失无踪
Hip-hop hip-hop
嘻哈 嘻哈
You are my friend
你是我挚友
That's the sound of the men
这是追梦者的节奏
Banging on the track not hanging on the corner slinging crack
在音轨上奋力敲打 而非在街角沉沦堕落
Now that we got our back up against the wall
如今我们背水一战
We gon' bring it back
必将重振荣光
We them entrepreneurs keeping out dream intact
我们是守护梦想的开拓者
The way I feel
我心之所向
I don't know if you can say the same
不知你是否感同身受
Look at what they became following the gravy train
看他们随波逐流 追逐名利浮华
And when it drips dry them little birds fly
当油水榨干 鸟雀便四散飞离
Flocking for better weather while we keepin' it curbside
寻觅更佳栖所 而我们坚守街头
To have a cypher you've got to come around
若要加入这场即兴盛宴
While pop radio is telling you to dumb it down
流行电台却劝你放弃思考
But I've been initiated
但我早已献身于此道
And we gon' get this s**t straight
我们要把这事整明白
And state it that Hieroglyphics the greatest
宣告象形文字是最棒的
And I'ma be your friend even when I don't got one
即使孤身一人 我也会做你的朋友
And when I give 'em the Rigmarole
当我给他们来段绕口令
To let 'em know we're not done
让他们知道我们还没完
Many rivers to 'cross
要跨越无数河流
To deliver the loss
才能传递这份失落
It's destiny yes we gon' weather the cost
这是命中注定 我们会承受代价
You would always come around
你总在顺境时出现

嘻哈 嘻哈 嘻哈
And when I needed a friend
当我最需要知己时
Oh you can never be found
你却消失无踪
Hip-hop hip-hop
嘻哈 嘻哈
You are my friend
你是我挚友
