Brownside - Life on the Streets [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1: Danger]
It's an everyday thing on the East of town
Times ain't good but they won't hold me down
I'm out to get mine and won't get left back
I can't get me a job but I could get a dope sack
In my hood everyday getting off my slangs
Not really trippin' off money cause I rather gang bang
And kick back with my homeboys who are down with me
From the evil side representing One-Three
And the ways of my neighborhood ain't nothin nice
You gotta be down or else you're paying the price
Cause for me to do good others must do bad
What makes me happy might make you sad
I need a straight come up so I can earn my way out
Broke motherfuckers don't carry no clout
The hood that I'm from is where I proved my name
And the streets where I live is where I got my fame

[Chorus: O.G.Enius]
Don't push me cause I'm losing my head
The way I live I might end up dead

[Verse 2: Danger]
I can't ever forget the crazy things that I've done
A young gang banger living life by a gun
Doin' down ass things to make you learn quick
The kind of crazy shit that makes people sick
Some might not agree but I Have to survive
And by me doing wrong is gonna keep me alive
So I try everything to learn the tricks of the trade
Saving up my money cause I don't get paid
I know I do bad but I do it real good
Cause that's the way I learned in my crazy ass hood
Growin' up in the streets of S.B and L.A
Where a youngster couldn't even hang around and play
Drive-Bys, drug deals, base heads everywhere
Crack babies being born and their moms don't even care
Don't think for a minute that this shit ain't real
Cause Life On The Streets might get you killed

[Chorus: O.G.Enius] (x2)

[Verse 3: Danger]
Times are bad and everything is hard
Got no money don't own no car
With some old ass clothes no food to eat
And some burnt out Nikes coverin' up my feet
You get your first impression by the way I look
He's a gangster, a killer and a no good crook
Just because I'm broke don't mean Imma punk
Let me explain myself in five minutes of funk
Everything I've done that has been wrong
I just kick back and write it here in my song
Cause life on the streets is rough as fuck
Vatos tryin' to hit licks so they can come up real tough
Rapping is my hustle all I need is a beat
So I can tell my little story about life on the street
And Imma do what it takes so I could survive
This is mad ass Danger from the Brownside

[Chorus: O.G.Enius](x2)
