[00:00.28] | Intro: |
[00:00.67] | Yo I wonder if Langston Hughes and Alex Hailey got blazed before they told stories, |
[00:04.08] | Well I’m gonna get blazed before I tell y’all stories, |
[00:07.61] | I saw on TV today this man lost his son, his son died, |
[00:10.96] | So he had him cremated, took his ashes, and made it into a diamond ring |
[00:15.70] | Now he watch his son shine everyday, |
[00:17.65] | I just thought about that, while I sit here ashin in this ash tray |
[00:22.91] | Verse One: |
[00:28.49] | The makin’ of a mad man who entered stories of Devante Swing, |
[00:31.12] | Eva Gardner, the crashin of James Dean, |
[00:35.08] | Bobby Brown, influenced by Rick James it goes, |
[00:39.59] | Prince wanted Alexander O’ Neill to be Morris Day or Jerome, |
[00:42.69] | But Alex was puttin’ coke in his nose nigga while it, |
[00:47.79] | Could be a myth but I swear that the source was close, Phyllis Hyman, |
[00:50.92] | Killed himself it was crazy, mommy was bad, they say, |
[00:54.72] | Donny Hathaway freefall from a balcony, he sways |
[00:57.44] | Chorus: |
[00:58.54] | As a blunt ash falls into the ashtray, I can see my whole life fly past me, |
[01:04.03] | Did I (Did I) keep it gangsta or keep it classy, and will the money and fame outlast me, |
[01:10.17] | The blunt’s ash fall down in the ash tray, will I see my whole life fly past me, |
[01:19.44] | I’m askin did I keep it gangsta or keep it classy, (did I) anything else you wanna know, just ask me. |
[01:25.96] | Verse Two: |
[01:26.86] | Sam trusted Womack with his main lady, he tossin’ in the grave like ‘this is how you repay me,’ |
[01:35.54] | A change goin’ come, wish you didn’t trust me so much, |
[01:38.93] | Marvin said ‘No mountains high enough,’ fly stuff, |
[01:41.67] | David Ruffin was punchin’ Tammy Tyrell, gave her concussions, |
[01:45.61] | While, the Funk Brothers was layin’ down the percussions, |
[01:49.86] | When Flo from the Supremes died, Diana Ross cried, |
[01:53.44] | Many people said that she was laughing inside (Why?). |
[01:56.73] | Chorus: |
[01:57.53] | As a blunt ash falls into the ashtray, I can see my whole life fly past me, |
[02:04.55] | Did I (Did I) keep it gangsta or keep it classy, and will the money and fame outlast me, |
[02:11.27] | The blunt’s ash fall down in the ash tray, will I see my whole life fly past me, |
[02:18.89] | I’m askin did I keep it gangsta or keep it classy, (did I) anything else you wanna know, just ask me. |
[02:24.43] | Verse three: |
[02:26.36] | John F. Kennedy’s enemies dealt with treachery, it interests me, |
[02:29.40] | Julie Campbell in Gucci sandals, she’s what a temptress be, |
[02:34.16] | The death of Anis Cosby, what a mystery, |
[02:36.73] | All of Chicago and Herald Washington, someone is sabotagin’ him, |
[02:40.44] | Watch out for the traps, Larry Troutman killed his brother, Roger Troutman, then he killed himself, that’s the end of Zapp, |
[02:48.69] | And I wouldn’t change a thing, mistakes of the greats, |
[02:51.52] | This is what came from they pain, from they hurt we gain, an unfair exchange. |
[02:56.37] | Chorus (background): |
[02:57.47] | As a blunt ash falls into the ashtray, I can see my whole life fly past me, |

[03:09.16] | The blunt’s ash fall down in the ash tray, will I see my whole life fly past me, |
[03:15.29] | I’m askin did I keep it gangsta or keep it classy, (did I) anything else you wanna know, just ask me |

[03:32.14] | And she didn’t even get allowed, wasn’t allowed to go to the premier, |

[00:00.28] | 序曲 |
[00:00.67] | 哟,我想知道Langston Hughes和Alex Haley(两位都是美国黑人作家)在他们讲故事前会不会喝高(指抽***) |
[00:04.08] | 反正我在给你们讲故事前我会喝高 |
[00:07.61] | 今天我在电视上看到,男人失去了他的儿子,他的儿子死了 |
[00:10.96] | 所以他将他火化,并把他的骨灰混合进钻石戒指里 |
[00:15.70] | 这样他每天都能看到他的儿子在闪耀(son和sun在这里双关) |
[00:17.65] | 当我坐着把烟灰弹进烟灰缸的时候,我只是想着这件事,yeah |
[00:22.91] | 第一段: |
[00:28.49] | DeVante Swing这个人有着许多错综复杂的故事,比如他建立了一支疯狂的乐队(乐队指R & B group Jodeci) |
[00:31.12] | Ava Gardner(美国著名女演员,因支气管肺炎病逝),James Dean出了车祸 |
[00:35.08] | Bobby Brown模仿Rick James豪放不羁的表演方式 |
[00:39.59] | Prince希望Alexander O'Neal能像Morris Day或者是Jerome那样听他的话 |
[00:42.69] | Alex却把***吸进了鼻子,兄弟,这是为什么? |
[00:47.79] | 这是个疑团,但我向你保证消息是可靠的,Phyllis Hyman, |
[00:50.92] | ***了,这太疯狂了,妈妈不是好人,他们说, |
[00:54.72] | Donny Hathaway从15楼跳下来,他在空中飞舞(swing影射他音乐中的swing) |
[00:57.44] | 副歌: |
[00:58.54] | 当烟灰落到烟灰缸的时候(blunt是里面填充***的香烟),我看到我的整个人生和我擦身而过(这里的“我”同时也象征着Hip Hop) |
[01:04.03] | 我的人生是gangsta那样充斥着犯罪和暴力,还是完美上等的?金钱与名声会比我长久吗? |
[01:10.17] | 烟灰落到了烟灰缸里,我看到我的整个人生和我擦身而过 |
[01:19.44] | 我在问,我的人生是gangsta那样充斥着犯罪和暴力,还是完美上等的?任何你想知道的问我就好(Nas在想他死后是否会成为传奇) |
[01:25.96] | 第二段: |
[01:26.86] | Sam和他生命中最重要的女人都很信任Womack(Womack娶了Sam的遗孀),他在坟墓里辗转不安,“这就是你的报答?” |
[01:35.54] | 有些事情将会改变,多么希望你过去没有那么信任我(这两句分别是Sam和Womack的歌) |
[01:38.93] | Marvin说“没有什么山是足够高的”,(因为有)让人腾空的东西(指**) |
[01:41.67] | David Ruffin猛揍Tammi Terrell,令她得了脑震荡 |
[01:45.61] | 当放克兄弟乐队放下打击乐器的时候(这个乐队常和摩城唱片公司演出) |
[01:49.86] | 当Supremes乐队的Flo Ballard死的时候,Diana Ross哭了 |
[01:53.44] | 很多人却说她在心里笑个不停(为什么?) |
[01:56.73] | 副歌: |
[01:57.53] | 当烟灰落到烟灰缸的时候(blunt是里面填充***的香烟),我看到我的整个人生和我擦身而过(这里的“我”同时也象征着Hip Hop) |
[02:04.55] | 我的人生是gangsta那样充斥着犯罪和暴力,还是完美上等的?金钱与名声会比我长久吗? |
[02:11.27] | 烟灰落到了烟灰缸里,我看到我的整个人生和我擦身而过 |
[02:18.89] | 我在问,我的人生是gangsta那样充斥着犯罪和暴力,还是完美上等的?任何你想知道的问我就好(Nas在想他死后是否会成为传奇) |
[02:24.43] | 第三段: |
[02:26.36] | 肯尼迪总统的敌人对他背叛宪法的行为采取了行动(即暗杀),这件事让我感兴趣。 |
[02:29.40] | Judy Campbell穿着Gucci的凉鞋(是肯尼迪的情人,也是黑手党Mafia两位领导人的情人),她是天生尤物 |
[02:34.16] | Ennis Co***y的死多么蹊跷(在路边换轮胎的时候被人射杀) |
[02:36.73] | (歌词错误,是Or the Chicagoan Harold Washington)Harold Washington死的也很蹊跷(前芝加哥市长,死于心脏病),有人在摧毁他们 |
[02:40.44] | 留心陷阱,Larry Trou**an杀了他的兄弟Roger Trou**an,接着他又***了,这就是Zapp团的结局 |
[02:48.69] | 我不愿改变任何事情,这些伟人的错误, |
[02:51.52] | 都源于他们的痛苦,从他们的伤痛中我们吸取教训,一场不平等的交易 |
[02:56.37] | 副歌(背景): |
[02:57.47] | 当烟灰落到烟灰缸的时候(blunt是里面填充***的香烟),我看到我的整个人生和我擦身而过(这里的“我”同时也象征着Hip Hop) |
[03:03.76] | 我的人生是gangsta那样充斥着犯罪和暴力,还是完美上等的?金钱与名声会比我长久吗? |
[03:09.16] | 烟灰落到了烟灰缸里,我看到我的整个人生和我擦身而过 |
[03:15.29] | 我在问,我的人生是gangsta那样充斥着犯罪和暴力,还是完美上等的?任何你想知道的问我就好(Nas在想他死后是否会成为传奇) |
[03:23.30] | 我能闻到Old Bogey香烟的味道(Old Bogey指亨弗莱·鲍嘉) |
[03:26.01] | 年代久远的香水闻起来同样甜美(香水指Lauren Bacall,她和鲍嘉的婚姻持续了12年) |
[03:27.01] | 我和我的妻子Kelis,开着敞篷车在路上狂飙,就像Ruby和Ossie Davis,宝贝-知道我在说什么吧?(Ruby和Ossie的婚姻持续了57年) |
[03:29.27] | 哟,我抽着烟,并开始想Hattie McDaniels, |
[03:31.49] | 她因为在《乱世佳人》里饰演妈妈而获得了奥斯卡金像奖 |
[03:32.14] | 但是她却被禁止,被禁止参加首映礼(因为种族隔离制度), |
[03:32.96] | 你相信吗?作为一份子,她不能去参加首映礼 |
[03:33.56] | 你知道的,他们那时候太强大了 |
[03:34.73] | 香烟,飞落,烟灰缸。 |
