Jay Anfernee - Gender Wars [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Intro] *vocalizing* Tell me how hard.....(x4)

[Verse 1]: Lord, pleeeease take me back to the late 90s
When our lifestyle was scruffy and nasty
Let me witness the weakness my daddy displayed for my momma, who was always twisting up his panty
She was a jealous one. He probably was a player but he couldn't handle the heat, that's why he had to run
A tigress, that's how much I could've testified to. She kept swinging a cutlass; my nigga wasn't that sprung
Different stories at both ends: how he left his son to attend to some hoe's child. How she was threatened with welfare and maybe proposed trials
Lord, you wouldn't have a house if they had planned to walk your aisle
So if they were really heeding Your words, I wouldn't have to be here wondering who should I love more
Kicking the crib and crawling on all fours, screaming out "Momma don't hit him no mo'."

[Hook]: Now tell me whose example I should follow. Tell me whose persona I should borrow
I just wanna be a better man, but all men are considered dogs. It's hard to swallow
Tell me why should I become their shadows
And hang myself on society's gallows
I'm sick and tired of these fucking wars
I control my life. You free to run yours

[Verse 2]: Mary Jane smoke filling the house like incense, while my sister baby daddy slapping her wall to wall breaking furniture, like a wannabe Christopher. Claiming that she'd never leave him but I'm a quick learner
Always pull up pumping dancehall and reggae. Plaits swinging, pants sagging, puff puffing steady
Kept a straight facade to his little girls. Starting petty shit with Momma, I feared a gun was at the ready
Yet, my sister was at his side still. No matter how many hoes he fucked around with, she was up to tossing Momma's plants and tables and clothes out for him. I shouldn't have seen it, should've been inside snoring
But I wasn't, and I was scarred thus. You don't want these problems between us
Today, too much friction between opposite genders and terms for simple love is hard to discuss

[Hook]

[Outro]: (Tell me how hard) it is to live a life plain and simple, stress free and gone from the mental?
(Tell me how hard) it is to hide the veins in my temple, treat and be treated gentle? (x2)
