I grew up on the crime side, the New York Times side
Staying alive was no jive
Had second hands, moms bounced on old men
So then we moved to Shaolin land
A young youth, yo rockin' the gold tooth, 'Lo goose
Only way, I begin to G off was drug loot
And let's start it like this son, rollin' with this one
And that one, pullin' out gats for fun
But it was just a dream for the teen, who was a fiend
Started smokin' woolas at sixteen
And running up in gates, and doing hits for high stakes
Making my way on fire escapes
No question I would speed, for cracks and weed
The combination made my eyes bleed
No question I would flow off, and try to get the dough all
Sticking up white boys in ball courts
My life got no better, same damn 'Lo sweater
Times is ruff and tuff like leather
Figured out I went the wrong route
So I got with a sick ass click and went all out
Catchin' keys from across seas
Rollin in MPV's, every week we made forty G's
Yo nigga respect mine, or here go the TEC-9
Ch-chick-POW! Move from the gate now

It's been twenty-two long hard years, I'm still strugglin'
Survival got me buggin', but I'm alive on arrival
I peep at the shape of the streets
And stay awake to the ways of the world 'cause shit is deep
A man with a dream with plans to make C.R.E.A.M.
Which failed I went to jail at the age of 15
A young buck sellin' drugs and such who never had much
Trying to get a clutch at what I could not
The court played me short, now I face incarceration
Pacin' going upstate's my destination
Handcuffed in back of a bus, forty of us
Life as a shorty shouldn't be so rough
But as the world turns I learned life is hell
Living in the world no different from a cell
Everyday I escape from Jakes givin' chase, sellin' base
Smokin' bones in the staircase
Though I don't know why I chose to smoke sess
I guess that's the time when I'm not depressed
But I'm still depressed, and I ask what's it worth?
Ready to give up so I seek the Old Earth
Who explained working hard may help you maintain
To learn to overcome the heartaches and pain
We got stickup kids, corrupt cops, and crack rocks
And stray shots, all on the block that stays hot
Leave it up to me while I be living proof
To kick the truth to the young black youth
But shorty's running wild smokin' sess drinkin' beer
And ain't trying to hear what I'm kickin' in his ear
Neglected, for now, but yo, it gots to be accepted

I grew up on the crime side, the New York Times side
J'ai grandi du côté du crime, du côté du New York Times
Staying alive was no jive
Rester en vie était pas facile
Had second hands, moms bounced on old men
J'avais des trucs d'occas, maman s'est enfuie du daron
So then we moved to Shaolin land
Donc on est passés au pays des Shaolin
A young youth, yo rockin' the gold tooth, 'Lo goose
Un jeune aux dents d'or, Polo Ralph Lauren, doudounes
Only way, I begin to G off was drug loot
La seule manière de s'en sortir c'était la drogue
And let's start it like this son, rollin' with this one
On va commencer mon fils, on va rouler
And that one, pullin' out gats for fun
On va sortir des flingues pour rire
But it was just a dream for the teen, who was a fiend
C'était un rêve d'adolescent, de copain
Started smokin' woolas at sixteen
J'ai commencé à fumer des joints à seize ans
And running up in gates, and doing hits for high stakes
À sauter les portails, avec de grands enjeux
Making my way on fire escapes
Faire mon chemin sur les sorties incendie
No question I would speed, for cracks and weed
Aucune question j'accélère pour le crack et la beuh
The combination made my eyes bleed
La combinaison me faisait saigner des yeux
No question I would flow off, and try to get the dough all
Aucune question je me lançais pour avoir du fric
Sticking up white boys in ball courts
Bloquer des blancs sur le terrain
My life got no better, same damn 'Lo sweater
Ma vie ne s'est pas amélioré, le même pull Polo
Times is ruff and tuff like leather
Les temps sont durs comme le cuir
Figured out I went the wrong route
J'ai compris que j'ai pris le mauvais chemin
So I got with a sick ass click and went all out
J'ai trouvé une bonne bande et je me suis lancé
Catchin' keys from across seas
A attraper des clés à travers les mers
Rollin in MPV's, every week we made forty G's
Rouler dans des MPV, chaque semaine on se faisait quarante mille

Vamos começar assim, meu jovem, viajando com esse aqui
And that one, pullin' out gats for fun
E aquele, mostrando armas por diversão
But it was just a dream for the teen, who was a fiend
Mas era só um sonho do adolescente, que era um viciado
Started smokin' woolas at sixteen
Começou a fumar maconha aos dezesseis
And running up in gates, and doing hits for high stakes
Pulando portões, fazendo roubos de alto risco
Making my way on fire escapes
Escapando por saídas de emergência
No question I would speed, for cracks and weed
Sem dúvidas, eu ia rápido por crack e maconha
The combination made my eyes bleed
A combinação fazia meus olhos sangrarem
No question I would flow off, and try to get the dough all
Sem dúvidas, eu vazava dali e tentava pegar todo a grana
Sticking up white boys in ball courts
Assaltando meninos brancos em quadras esportivas
My life got no better, same damn 'Lo sweater
Minha vida não melhorava, a mesma blusa velha da Polo
Times is ruff and tuff like leather
Tempos difíceis e duros como couro
Figured out I went the wrong route
Percebi que tinha escolhido o caminho errado
So I got with a sick ass click and went all out
Então me juntei a um grupo firmeza e vazei
Catchin' keys from across seas

Tenemos niños atrapados, policías corruptos y rocas agrietadas
And stray shots, all on the block that stays hot
Balas perdidas, todo lo que se mantiene caliente en la cuadra
Leave it up to me while I be living proof
Déjamelo a mí mientras sea la prueba viviente
To kick the truth to the young black youth
Para decirle la verdad la juventud negra
But shorty's running wild smokin' sess drinkin' beer
Pero el shorty se está volviendo loco fumando bebiendo cerveza
And ain't trying to hear what I'm kickin' in his ear
Y no petiso tratando de escuchar lo que estoy pateando en su oído
Neglected, for now, but yo, it gots to be accepted
Descuidado, pero ahora, pero, tienes que ser aceptado
That what? That life is hectic
¿Eso es todo? lo que esa vida es agitada

I grew up on the crime side, the New York Times side
Ich wuchs auf der Seite des Verbrechens auf, auf der Seite der New York Times
Staying alive was no jive
Am Leben zu bleiben war kein Zuckerschlecken
Had second hands, moms bounced on old men
Hatte eine zweite Hand, Mütter haben auf alten Männern rumgehüpft
So then we moved to Shaolin land
Also zogen wir ins Shaolin Land
A young youth, yo rockin' the gold tooth, 'Lo goose
Ein junger Bursche, yo rockt den Goldzahn, 'Lo Gans
Only way, I begin to G off was drug loot
Der einzige Weg, wie ich abhauen konnte, war Drogengeld
And let's start it like this son, rollin' with this one
Und so fangen wir an, mein Sohn, mit dem da
And that one, pullin' out gats for fun
Und der da, zieht Tüten raus zum Spaß
But it was just a dream for the teen, who was a fiend
Aber es war nur ein Traum für den Teenager, der ein Junkie war
Started smokin' woolas at sixteen
Mit sechzehn fing er an, Woolas zu rauchen
And running up in gates, and doing hits for high stakes
Und rannte durch die Gates und machte Hits für hohe Einsätze
Making my way on fire escapes
Ich bahnte mir meinen Weg auf Feuerleitern
No question I would speed, for cracks and weed
Keine Frage, dass ich auf Speed war, für Crack und Gras
The combination made my eyes bleed
Die Kombination ließ meine Augen bluten
No question I would flow off, and try to get the dough all
Keine Frage, ich würde abhauen und versuchen, die ganze Kohle zu bekommen
Sticking up white boys in ball courts
Weiße Jungs auf dem Ballspielplatz überfallen
My life got no better, same damn 'Lo sweater
Mein Leben wurde nicht besser, der gleiche verdammte 'Lo Pullover
Times is ruff and tuff like leather
Die Zeiten sind rau und taff wie Leder
Figured out I went the wrong route
Ich merkte, dass ich den falschen Weg eingeschlagen hatte
So I got with a sick ass click and went all out
Also habe ich mit einem kranken Arsch Klick und ging alle aus
Catchin' keys from across seas
Schnappte mir Schlüssel von jenseits der Meere
Rollin in MPV's, every week we made forty G's
Rollen in MPV's, jede Woche machten wir vierzig G's

A young buck sellin' drugs and such who never had much
Ein junger Kerl, der Drogen und dergleichen verkaufte und nie viel hatte
Trying to get a clutch at what I could not
Versuchte etwas zu bekommen, was ich nicht konnte
The court played me short, now I face incarceration

Life as a shorty shouldn't be so rough
Das Leben als Minderjähriger sollte nicht so hart sein
But as the world turns I learned life is hell
Aber als die Welt sich drehte, lernte ich, dass das Leben die Hölle ist
Living in the world no different from a cell
Das Leben in der Welt ist nicht anders als eine Zelle
Everyday I escape from Jakes givin' chase, sellin' base
Jeden Tag fliehe ich vor Jakes, der mich jagt, und verkaufe Base
Smokin' bones in the staircase
Rauchende Knochen im Treppenhaus
Though I don't know why I chose to smoke sess
Obwohl ich nicht weiß, warum ich mich entschied, zu rauchen
I guess that's the time when I'm not depressed
Ich schätze, das ist die Zeit, in der ich nicht deprimiert bin

Aber ich bin immer noch deprimiert, und ich frage, was ist es wert?

Ich bin bereit aufzugeben, also suche ich die Alte Erde

[Giriş: Raekwon & Method Man]
O zenci ne istiyor ahbap?
Aynen, yine de polislere dikkat et falan (Wu-Tang beş parmak kanka)
Para yönetiyor-
Aynen, iki tanesi beş dolar burada bebeğim
Dediğim gibi, iki tanesi beş kağıt, caddenin aşağısındaki zencilerinki çöp
Aynen, ne dediğimi biliyo'n di' mi?
Para yönetiyor etrafımdaki her şeyi, C.R.E.A.M., alın-
He, dinle bi' bak şu eski hava şeyi, aynen
(Para yönetiyor etrafımdaki her şeyi)
Bi' tane has bi' joint kap
(C.R.E.A.M., alın parayı)
(Hepinize dolarlık banknotlar millet!)
Hadi, işte başlıyoruz, dinle bi' bak ne diy'ce'm
[Bölüm 1: Raekwon]
Büyüdüm suç dolu yerlerde, New York Times'ın tarafında
Hayatta kalmanın eğlencesi yoktu
İkinci el giyinirdim, annem bizim moruğu sepetledi
Sonra Shaolin topraklarına taşındık
Genç adam, yo, takılıyor altın dişi ve kaz tüyü Polo'suyla
Hayatımın düzelmesinin tek yolu uyuşturucu vurgunuydu
Ve şöyle başlayalım oğlum
Uçalım bununla ve şununla, silah çekelim eğlence için
Ama bu sadece rüyaydı serseri bi' genç için
Cigara tüttürmeye 16 yaşında başlamış biri için
Mangır için koşuşturan, büyük vurgunlar yapan biri için
Yangın merdivenlerinden yolumu yapıyo'dum
Şüphe yok, uyuşturucu ve ot için koşuştururdum
Bu ikili gözlerimin kanamasına sebep oldu
Şüphe yok, akıp gider ve bütün parayı kapmaya çalışırdım
Basket sahasında beyaz veletleri soyardım
Hayatım düzelmedi, aynı lanet Polo kazağı
Kötü ve deri gibi sert günler
Yanlış yoldan gittiğimi fark ettim
Bu yüzden hasta gibi davranan sıkı ekiple takılmaya başladım
Denizaşırı yerlerden uyuşturucu alıyo'z
MPV'lerde takılıyo'm, her hafta kırk bin dolar yapıyo'z dostlarımla
Yo, zenci bana saygı göster ya da TEC9'ıma
Ch-chick-pow! Şimdi çekil yolumuzdan
[Nakarat: Method Man]
Para yönetiyor etrafımdaki her şeyi
C.R.E.A.M., alın parayı
Hepinize dolarlık banknotlar millet!

22 uzun ve zor yıl oldu, hâlâ mücadeleye devam ediyorum
Hayatta kalma olayı canımı sıktı ama hâlâ dipdiriyim
Ben sokakları dikizledim
Ve dünyanın gidişatı için tetikte kaldım çünkü ortalık vahim
Hayalleri ve para bulma planları olan bir adam
Planlar başarısız oldu; 15'imde hapsi boyladım
Uyuşturucu satıp para bulan bi' genç, hiçbi' zaman fazla şeye sahip olmayan
Beceremediğim bir şeye sıkıca tutunmaya çalıştım
Mahkeme beni kısa tuttu, şimdi hapisle karşı karşıyayım
Tüyüp şehir dışına kaçmak benim hedefim
Bi' otobüsün arkasında kelepçeliyiz kırkımız birden
Bi' velet için hayat çok zor olmamalıydı
Ama hayatın cehennem olduğunu öğrendim dönerken dünya
Hücreden farksız bi' dünyada yaşıyoruz
Her gün beni kovalayan polislerden kaçıyo'm
Ot satıyo'm, merdivenlerde ot tüttürüyo'm
Neden sigara içmeyi seçtiğimi bilmesem de
Sanırım stresimi alıyor bu ama hâlâ bunalımdayım
Ve soruyorum kendime: Buna değdi mi?
Pes etmeye hazırım bu yüzden eski Dünya'yı arıyorum;
''Çok çalışmanın dertler ve acılarının geçmesine yardımcı olabileceğini'' anlatan
Soyguncu çocuklar, yobaz polisler, uyuşturucu çekenler
Ve başıboş tipler, hepsi bu sıcak kalan mahallede var
Bunu bana bırak ben yaşayan kanıtken
Siyah gençliğe doğruları yakınacağım
Ama bebeler hemen tüyüyo', cigara tüttürüyo', bira içiyo'
Ve kulaklarına yakındığım şeyi duymaya çalışmıyo'lar bile
Şimdilik ihmal edin ama, yo bunu anlayacaksınız
Neyi? Hayatın telaş dolu olduğunu
