I'm falling up flights of stairs
我在楼梯间踉跄翻滚
Scraping myself from the sidewalk
从人行道上挣扎爬起
Jumping from rivers to bridges
在河岸与桥墩间纵跃
Drowning in pure air
窒息于纯净空气中
Hip hop is lying on the side of the road
嘻哈如垂死伤者横卧路旁
Half dead to itself
奄奄一息苟延残喘
Blood scrawled over it's mangled flesh like jazz
血肉模糊的躯体上 爵士乐般的血迹斑驳
Stuffed into an oversized record bag
被塞进过时的唱片袋中
Tuba lips swollen beyond recognition
肿胀的嘴唇已面目全非
Diamond studded teeth
镶钻的牙齿
Strewn like rice at karma's wedding
如业报婚礼上撒落的米粒
The ring bearer bore bad news
捧戒童带来噩耗
Minister of information wrote the wrong proclamation
信息部长写下错误诏书
And now everyone's singing the wrong song
如今众人皆在错唱
Dissonant chords find necks like nooses
刺耳和弦如绞索般缠颈
That ni**a kicked the chair from under my feet
那家伙抽走了我脚下的椅子
Harlem shakin' from a rope but still on beat

Can't wait to play myself at the party tonight

Niggas are gonna die
