When Thugz Cry
Jewell Peyton, Johnny Lee Jackson, Tupac Amaru Shakur
When thugs cry
Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my guns to keep
If I die before I wake
I pray the Lord my soul to take
Got us dyin', when thugs cry, times is hard
Born thuggin' and lovin' the way I came up
Big money clutchin', bustin', while evadin' cocaine busts
My pulse rushin', send my cushin' into insanity
Shout at my cousin now we bustin' if they yo' family
The coppers want to see me buried, I ain't worried
I got a line on the D.A. 'cause I'm fuckin' his secretary
I black out and start cussin', bust 'em and touch 'em all
They panic and bitches duckin', I rush 'em and fuck 'em all
I'll probably be an old man before I understand
Why I had to live my life with pistols close at hand
Kidnapped my homie's sister, cut her face up bad
They even raped her, so we blazed they pad
Automatic shots rang out, on every block
They puttin' hits out on politicians, even cops, I ain't lyin'
They got me sleepin' with my infrared beams
And in my dreams I hear motherfuckers screamin'
What is the meaning, when thugs cry?
Oh why, should you send your child off to die
In the streets of chalk where they lie
Let no wrongs cry out when thugs cry
Dear God (when thugs cry)
Oh why, does it have to be this way, our
Children of today won't stay wise (thugs cry)
Let the children hear when thugs cry
Dear God, oh why
Heh, maybe my addiction to friction got me buggin'
Where is the love? Never quit my ambition to thug
Ain't shed a tear since the old school years of elementary
Niggas I used to love, enclosed in penitentiaries
But still homie keep it real, how does it feel
To lose your life, over somethin' that you did as a kid?
You all alone, no communication, block on the phone
Don't get along with yo' pop, and plus your moms is gone
Where did we go wrong? I put my soul in the song
To help us grow at times, but now our minds are gone
We went from brothers and sisters, to niggas and bitches
We went from welfare livin', to worldwide riches
But somethin' changed in this dirty game, everything's strange
Lost all my homies over cocaine, man
See they ask me if I shed a tear, I ain't lie
See you gotta get high or die, 'cause even thugs cry
Oh why, should you send your child off to die?
In the streets of chalk where they lie
Let no wrongs cry out when thugs cry
Dear God
Oh why, does it have to be this way, our
Children of today won't stay wise
Let the children hear when thugs cry
Dear God, oh why?
And all I see is these paranoid bitches, illegal adventures
Bustin' motherfuckers with uppercuts, I leave 'em with dentures
'Cause in my criminal mind, nobody violates the Don
I write your name on a piece of paper, now your family's gone
Why perpetrate like you can handle my team?
So merciless that my attack'll take command of your dreams
Leavin' motherfuckers drownin' in they own blood
Clownin' takin' pictures later
Laugh 'bout the punk bitches, that turned snitches
Regulate my area, the terror I represent
Make yo' people disappear, you wonderin' where they went?
Am I cold or is it just I sold my soul?
Addicted to these streets, never find true peace, I'm told
Come take my body God, don't let me suffer any longer
Smoke a pound of marijuana, so I know it ain't long
Where is the end to all my misery, is there a close?
I suppose that's why I murder my foes, when thugs cry
Oh why, should you send your child off to die
In the streets of chalk where they lie
Let no wrongs cry out when thugs cry
Dear God (when thugs cry)
Oh why, does it have to be this way, our
Children of today won't stay wise (thugs cry)
Let the children hear when thugs cry
Dear God, oh why?
Oh why, should you send your child off to die
In the streets of chalk where they lie
Let no wrongs cry out when thugs cry
Dear God
Oh why, does it have to be this way, our
Children of today won't stay wise
Let the children hear when thugs cry
Dear God, oh why?
When thugs cry
Quand les voyous pleurent
Now I lay me down to sleep
Maintenant je me couche pour dormir
I pray the Lord my guns to keep
Je prie le Seigneur de garder mes armes
If I die before I wake
Si je meurs avant de me réveiller
I pray the Lord my soul to take
Je prie le Seigneur de prendre mon âme
Got us dyin', when thugs cry, times is hard
Nous mourons, quand les voyous pleurent, les temps sont durs
Born thuggin' and lovin' the way I came up
Né voyou et aimant la façon dont j'ai grandi
Big money clutchin', bustin', while evadin' cocaine busts
Gros argent serré, tirant, tout en évitant les descentes de cocaïne
My pulse rushin', send my cushin' into insanity
Mon pouls s'accélère, envoie mon coussin dans la folie
Shout at my cousin now we bustin' if they yo' family
Crie à mon cousin maintenant nous tirons s'ils sont ta famille
The coppers want to see me buried, I ain't worried
Les flics veulent me voir enterré, je ne suis pas inquiet
I got a line on the D.A. 'cause I'm fuckin' his secretary
J'ai une ligne sur le D.A. parce que je baise sa secrétaire
I black out and start cussin', bust 'em and touch 'em all
Je perds connaissance et commence à jurer, je les touche tous
They panic and bitches duckin', I rush 'em and fuck 'em all
Ils paniquent et les salopes se baissent, je les bouscule et les baise tous
I'll probably be an old man before I understand
Je serai probablement un vieil homme avant de comprendre
Why I had to live my life with pistols close at hand
Pourquoi j'ai dû vivre ma vie avec des pistolets à portée de main
Kidnapped my homie's sister, cut her face up bad
Kidnappé la sœur de mon pote, lui a coupé le visage
They even raped her, so we blazed they pad
Ils l'ont même violée, alors nous avons incendié leur maison
Automatic shots rang out, on every block
Des coups de feu automatiques retentissent, sur chaque bloc
They puttin' hits out on politicians, even cops, I ain't lyin'
Ils mettent des contrats sur les politiciens, même les flics, je ne mens pas
They got me sleepin' with my infrared beams
Ils me font dormir avec mes faisceaux infrarouges
And in my dreams I hear motherfuckers screamin'
Et dans mes rêves j'entends des enfoirés crier
What is the meaning, when thugs cry?
Quel est le sens, quand les voyous pleurent?
Oh why, should you send your child off to die
Oh pourquoi, devriez-vous envoyer votre enfant mourir
In the streets of chalk where they lie
Dans les rues de craie où ils mentent
Let no wrongs cry out when thugs cry
Ne laissez pas les torts crier quand les voyous pleurent
Dear God (when thugs cry)
Cher Dieu (quand les voyous pleurent)
Oh why, does it have to be this way, our
Oh pourquoi, doit-il en être ainsi, nos
Children of today won't stay wise (thugs cry)
Enfants d'aujourd'hui ne resteront pas sages (les voyous pleurent)
Let the children hear when thugs cry
Laissez les enfants entendre quand les voyous pleurent
Dear God, oh why
Cher Dieu, oh pourquoi
Heh, maybe my addiction to friction got me buggin'
Heh, peut-être que mon addiction à la friction me rend fou
Where is the love? Never quit my ambition to thug
Où est l'amour? Jamais quitté mon ambition de voyou
Ain't shed a tear since the old school years of elementary
N'a pas versé une larme depuis les années d'école primaire
Niggas I used to love, enclosed in penitentiaries
Niggas que j'aimais, enfermés dans des pénitenciers
But still homie keep it real, how does it feel
Mais toujours mon pote reste vrai, comment ça fait
To lose your life, over somethin' that you did as a kid?
De perdre ta vie, pour quelque chose que tu as fait gamin?
You all alone, no communication, block on the phone
Tu es tout seul, pas de communication, bloc sur le téléphone
Don't get along with yo' pop, and plus your moms is gone
Ne t'entends pas avec ton père, et ta mère est partie
Where did we go wrong? I put my soul in the song
Où avons-nous mal tourné? J'ai mis mon âme dans la chanson
To help us grow at times, but now our minds are gone
Pour nous aider à grandir parfois, mais maintenant nos esprits sont partis
We went from brothers and sisters, to niggas and bitches
Nous sommes passés de frères et sœurs, à niggas et salopes
We went from welfare livin', to worldwide riches
Nous sommes passés de la vie d'assistance, à la richesse mondiale
But somethin' changed in this dirty game, everything's strange
Mais quelque chose a changé dans ce sale jeu, tout est étrange
Lost all my homies over cocaine, man
Perdu tous mes potes à cause de la cocaïne, mec
See they ask me if I shed a tear, I ain't lie
Voyez, ils me demandent si j'ai versé une larme, je ne mens pas
See you gotta get high or die, 'cause even thugs cry
Voyez, vous devez vous défoncer ou mourir, parce que même les voyous pleurent
Oh why, should you send your child off to die?
Oh pourquoi, devriez-vous envoyer votre enfant mourir?
In the streets of chalk where they lie

Bustin' motherfuckers avec des uppercuts, je les laisse avec des prothèses
'Cause in my criminal mind, nobody violates the Don
Car dans mon esprit criminelle, personne ne viole le Don
I write your name on a piece of paper, now your family's gone
J'écris ton nom sur un morceau de papier, maintenant ta famille est partie
Why perpetrate like you can handle my team?
Pourquoi perpétrer comme si tu pouvais gérer mon équipe?
So merciless that my attack'll take command of your dreams
Si impitoyable que mon attaque prendra le commandement de tes rêves
Leavin' motherfuckers drownin' in they own blood
Laisser les enfoirés se noyer dans leur propre sang
Clownin' takin' pictures later
Clownin' prenant des photos plus tard
Laugh 'bout the punk bitches, that turned snitches
Rire des salopes punk, qui sont devenues des balances
Regulate my area, the terror I represent
Régule mon quartier, la terreur que je représente
Make yo' people disappear, you wonderin' where they went?
Fais disparaître ton peuple, tu te demandes où ils sont allés?
Am I cold or is it just I sold my soul?
Suis-je froid ou est-ce juste que j'ai vendu mon âme?
Addicted to these streets, never find true peace, I'm told
Addict à ces rues, jamais trouver la vraie paix, on me l'a dit

Fume une livre de marijuana, donc je sais que ce n'est pas long

When thugs cry
Quando bandidos choram
Now I lay me down to sleep

Big money clutchin', bustin', while evadin' cocaine busts
Grande dinheiro agarrando, atirando, enquanto evitando prisões por cocaína
My pulse rushin', send my cushin' into insanity

I got a line on the D.A. 'cause I'm fuckin' his secretary
Eu tenho uma linha no D.A. porque eu estou transando com sua secretária
I black out and start cussin', bust 'em and touch 'em all
Eu apago e começo a xingar, acerto eles e toco em todos
They panic and bitches duckin', I rush 'em and fuck 'em all
Eles entram em pânico e as vadias se escondem, eu corro atrás delas e fodo com todas
I'll probably be an old man before I understand
Provavelmente serei um velho antes de entender
Why I had to live my life with pistols close at hand
Por que eu tive que viver minha vida com pistolas à mão
Kidnapped my homie's sister, cut her face up bad

In the streets of chalk where they lie
En las calles de tiza donde yacen
Let no wrongs cry out when thugs cry
Que no lloren los errores cuando los matones lloran
Dear God
Querido Dios
Oh why, does it have to be this way, our
Oh por qué, tiene que ser así, nuestros
Children of today won't stay wise
Los niños de hoy no se mantendrán sabios
Let the children hear when thugs cry
Deja que los niños escuchen cuando los matones lloran
Dear God, oh why?
Querido Dios, oh por qué?
When thugs cry
Wenn Schläger weinen
Now I lay me down to sleep
Jetzt lege ich mich schlafen
I pray the Lord my guns to keep
Ich bete den Herrn, meine Waffen zu behalten
If I die before I wake
Wenn ich sterbe, bevor ich aufwache
I pray the Lord my soul to take
Ich bete den Herrn, meine Seele zu nehmen
Got us dyin', when thugs cry, times is hard
Wir sterben, wenn Schläger weinen, die Zeiten sind hart
Born thuggin' and lovin' the way I came up
Geboren als Schläger und liebe den Weg, wie ich aufgewachsen bin
Big money clutchin', bustin', while evadin' cocaine busts
Großes Geld klammernd, schießend, während ich Kokain-Busts vermeide
My pulse rushin', send my cushin' into insanity
Mein Puls rast, schickt meine Polsterung in den Wahnsinn
Shout at my cousin now we bustin' if they yo' family
Schreie meinen Cousin an, jetzt schießen wir, wenn sie deine Familie sind
The coppers want to see me buried, I ain't worried
Die Bullen wollen mich begraben sehen, ich mache mir keine Sorgen
I got a line on the D.A. 'cause I'm fuckin' his secretary
Ich habe eine Leitung auf den D.A., weil ich seine Sekretärin ficke
I black out and start cussin', bust 'em and touch 'em all
Ich werde schwarz und fange an zu fluchen, berühre sie alle
They panic and bitches duckin', I rush 'em and fuck 'em all
Sie geraten in Panik und Schlampen tauchen unter, ich stürze mich auf sie und ficke sie alle
I'll probably be an old man before I understand
Ich werde wahrscheinlich ein alter Mann sein, bevor ich verstehe
Why I had to live my life with pistols close at hand
Warum ich mein Leben mit Pistolen in der Hand leben musste
Kidnapped my homie's sister, cut her face up bad
Entführte die Schwester meines Homies, schnitt ihr Gesicht übel zu
They even raped her, so we blazed they pad
Sie haben sie sogar vergewaltigt, also haben wir ihre Wohnung abgefackelt
Automatic shots rang out, on every block
Automatische Schüsse hallten auf jedem Block wider
They puttin' hits out on politicians, even cops, I ain't lyin'
Sie setzen Hits auf Politiker, sogar Cops, ich lüge nicht
They got me sleepin' with my infrared beams
Sie haben mich mit meinen Infrarotstrahlen schlafen lassen
And in my dreams I hear motherfuckers screamin'
Und in meinen Träumen höre ich Motherfucker schreien
What is the meaning, when thugs cry?
Was ist die Bedeutung, wenn Schläger weinen?
Oh why, should you send your child off to die
Oh warum, solltest du dein Kind in den Tod schicken
In the streets of chalk where they lie
In den Straßen aus Kreide, wo sie liegen
Let no wrongs cry out when thugs cry
Lass keine Unrechte schreien, wenn Schläger weinen
Dear God (when thugs cry)
Lieber Gott (wenn Schläger weinen)
Oh why, does it have to be this way, our
Oh warum, muss es so sein, unsere

Kinder von heute bleiben nicht weise (Schläger weinen)

Lass die Kinder hören, wenn Schläger weinen
Dear God, oh why
Lieber Gott, oh warum
Heh, maybe my addiction to friction got me buggin'
Heh, vielleicht hat meine Sucht nach Reibung mich verrückt gemacht
Where is the love? Never quit my ambition to thug
Wo ist die Liebe? Habe nie meinen Ehrgeiz aufgegeben, ein Schläger zu sein
Ain't shed a tear since the old school years of elementary
Habe seit den alten Schuljahren der Grundschule keine Träne vergossen
Niggas I used to love, enclosed in penitentiaries
Niggas, die ich liebte, eingesperrt in Gefängnissen
But still homie keep it real, how does it feel
Aber immer noch Homie, bleib real, wie fühlt es sich an
To lose your life, over somethin' that you did as a kid?
Dein Leben zu verlieren, über etwas, das du als Kind getan hast?
You all alone, no communication, block on the phone
Du bist ganz allein, keine Kommunikation, Block am Telefon
Don't get along with yo' pop, and plus your moms is gone
Kommst nicht mit deinem Vater klar, und außerdem ist deine Mutter weg
Where did we go wrong? I put my soul in the song
Wo haben wir uns geirrt? Ich habe meine Seele in das Lied gesteckt
To help us grow at times, but now our minds are gone
Um uns zu helfen zu wachsen, aber jetzt sind unsere Köpfe weg
We went from brothers and sisters, to niggas and bitches
Wir gingen von Brüdern und Schwestern zu Niggas und Schlampen
We went from welfare livin', to worldwide riches
Wir gingen von Sozialhilfeleben zu weltweitem Reichtum
But somethin' changed in this dirty game, everything's strange
Aber etwas hat sich in diesem schmutzigen Spiel geändert, alles ist seltsam
Lost all my homies over cocaine, man
Verlor all meine Homies über Kokain, Mann
See they ask me if I shed a tear, I ain't lie
Sie fragen mich, ob ich eine Träne vergossen habe, ich habe nicht gelogen
See you gotta get high or die, 'cause even thugs cry
Du musst high werden oder sterben, denn auch Schläger weinen
Oh why, should you send your child off to die?
Oh warum, solltest du dein Kind in den Tod schicken?
In the streets of chalk where they lie
In den Straßen aus Kreide, wo sie liegen
Let no wrongs cry out when thugs cry
Lass keine Unrechte schreien, wenn Schläger weinen

And all I see is these paranoid bitches, illegal adventures
Und alles, was ich sehe, sind diese paranoiden Schlampen, illegale Abenteuer
Bustin' motherfuckers with uppercuts, I leave 'em with dentures
Schlage Motherfucker mit Uppercuts, ich lasse sie mit Prothesen zurück
'Cause in my criminal mind, nobody violates the Don
Denn in meinem kriminellen Verstand verletzt niemand den Don
I write your name on a piece of paper, now your family's gone
Ich schreibe deinen Namen auf ein Stück Papier, jetzt ist deine Familie weg
Why perpetrate like you can handle my team?
Warum so tun, als könntest du mein Team handhaben?
So merciless that my attack'll take command of your dreams
So gnadenlos, dass mein Angriff die Kontrolle über deine Träume übernimmt
Leavin' motherfuckers drownin' in they own blood
Lasse Motherfucker in ihrem eigenen Blut ertrinken
Clownin' takin' pictures later
Clownin' nimmt später Bilder auf
Laugh 'bout the punk bitches, that turned snitches
Lache über die Punk-Schlampen, die zu Snitches wurden
Regulate my area, the terror I represent
Reguliere mein Gebiet, den Terror, den ich repräsentiere
Make yo' people disappear, you wonderin' where they went?
Lasse deine Leute verschwinden, du fragst dich, wo sie hingegangen sind?
Am I cold or is it just I sold my soul?
Bin ich kalt oder habe ich einfach meine Seele verkauft?
Addicted to these streets, never find true peace, I'm told
Süchtig nach diesen Straßen, finde nie wahren Frieden, so sagt man mir
Come take my body God, don't let me suffer any longer
Komm, nimm meinen Körper, Gott, lass mich nicht länger leiden
Smoke a pound of marijuana, so I know it ain't long
Rauche ein Pfund Marihuana, also weiß ich, es ist nicht lange
Where is the end to all my misery, is there a close?
Wo ist das Ende all meines Elends, gibt es ein Ende?
I suppose that's why I murder my foes, when thugs cry
Ich nehme an, deshalb ermorde ich meine Feinde, wenn Schläger weinen

When thugs cry
Quando i teppisti piangono
Now I lay me down to sleep
Ora mi corico per dormire
I pray the Lord my guns to keep
Prego il Signore di custodire le mie pistole
If I die before I wake
Se morirò prima di svegliarmi
I pray the Lord my soul to take
Prego il Signore di prendere la mia anima
Got us dyin', when thugs cry, times is hard
Ci stanno facendo morire, quando i teppisti piangono, i tempi sono duri
Born thuggin' and lovin' the way I came up
Nato teppista e amando il modo in cui sono cresciuto
Big money clutchin', bustin', while evadin' cocaine busts
Grande denaro stretto, sparando, mentre evito arresti per cocaina
My pulse rushin', send my cushin' into insanity
Il mio polso corre, manda il mio cuscino nella follia
Shout at my cousin now we bustin' if they yo' family
Urlo a mio cugino ora stiamo sparando se sono la tua famiglia
The coppers want to see me buried, I ain't worried
I poliziotti vogliono vedermi sepolto, non sono preoccupato
I got a line on the D.A. 'cause I'm fuckin' his secretary
Ho un contatto con il D.A. perché sto scopando la sua segretaria
I black out and start cussin', bust 'em and touch 'em all
Sbatto e inizio a imprecare, li colpisco e li tocco tutti
They panic and bitches duckin', I rush 'em and fuck 'em all
Si agitano e le puttane si abbassano, li attacco e li scopo tutti
I'll probably be an old man before I understand
Probabilmente sarò un vecchio prima di capire
Why I had to live my life with pistols close at hand
Perché ho dovuto vivere la mia vita con le pistole a portata di mano
Kidnapped my homie's sister, cut her face up bad
Ho rapito la sorella del mio amico, le ho tagliato la faccia
They even raped her, so we blazed they pad
L'hanno anche violentata, quindi abbiamo incendiato la loro casa
Automatic shots rang out, on every block
Colpi automatici risuonano, su ogni isolato
They puttin' hits out on politicians, even cops, I ain't lyin'
Stanno mettendo contratti su politici, persino poliziotti, non sto mentendo
They got me sleepin' with my infrared beams
Mi hanno fatto dormire con i miei raggi infrarossi
And in my dreams I hear motherfuckers screamin'
E nei miei sogni sento urlare i figli di puttana
What is the meaning, when thugs cry?
Qual è il significato, quando i teppisti piangono?
Oh why, should you send your child off to die
Oh perché, dovresti mandare tuo figlio a morire
In the streets of chalk where they lie
Nelle strade di gesso dove giacciono

Dov'è l'amore? Non ho mai smesso la mia ambizione di essere un teppista
Ain't shed a tear since the old school years of elementary
Non ho versato una lacrima dai vecchi anni della scuola elementare
Niggas I used to love, enclosed in penitentiaries
Neri che amavo, rinchiusi nelle prigioni
But still homie keep it real, how does it feel
Ma ancora amico mantieni la realtà, come ti senti
To lose your life, over somethin' that you did as a kid?
Per perdere la vita, per qualcosa che hai fatto da bambino?
You all alone, no communication, block on the phone
Sei tutto solo, nessuna comunicazione, blocco sul telefono
Don't get along with yo' pop, and plus your moms is gone
Non vai d'accordo con tuo padre, e in più tua madre è andata
Where did we go wrong? I put my soul in the song
Dove abbiamo sbagliato? Ho messo la mia anima nella canzone
To help us grow at times, but now our minds are gone
Per aiutarci a crescere a volte, ma ora le nostre menti sono andate
We went from brothers and sisters, to niggas and bitches
Siamo passati da fratelli e sorelle, a negri e puttane
We went from welfare livin', to worldwide riches
Siamo passati da vivere di assistenza sociale, a ricchezze mondiali
But somethin' changed in this dirty game, everything's strange
Ma qualcosa è cambiato in questo sporco gioco, tutto è strano
Lost all my homies over cocaine, man
Ho perso tutti i miei amici a causa della cocaina, uomo
See they ask me if I shed a tear, I ain't lie
Vedono mi chiedono se ho versato una lacrima, non ho mentito
See you gotta get high or die, 'cause even thugs cry
Vedi devi drogarti o morire, perché anche i teppisti piangono
Oh why, should you send your child off to die?

Why perpetrate like you can handle my team?
Perché fingere di poter gestire la mia squadra?
So merciless that my attack'll take command of your dreams

Sono freddo o è solo che ho venduto la mia anima?

Dipendente da queste strade, non troverò mai la vera pace, mi hanno detto
