Mojoe - Dirty Genes [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Intro]

[Verse 1: T.R.R.E.]
These days lately, my momma seem to hate me
I remind her of my old man, I never really knew
Packin' smoke the same squares, even drink the same brew
Have the same attitude but God brought me through
Two sons right here, baby girl on the way
Will history repeat itself? Nigga nah, not today
I'll teach ya 'bout my strongholds and my setbacks
Generational curse, am I mortified with my verse
On a hot track - See I ain't lookin' back
The struggle is gone, Ka-poof, bye-bye, good-bye
I wish it was that easy but you know I'd be lyin'
Just as - Clueless as Jay in wonderin' why
Why I was dealt a bad hand in life
But fuck it gotta play with what I got right?
Shit, and what is deeper than a gunfight -
When you tryna fight them demons that be inside?

[Hook]
See I was born with dirty genes
D-I-R B-A-D's
Watchin' 'em bleed, tryna get 'em clean
Then I hold up my paw
For the world to see
But low and behold, nothing's changed
Could it be I'm a slave -
Could it be I'm a slave -
Could it be I'm a slave to the game?

[Verse 2: Easy Lee]
A sinner yeah it's in my blood, a sinner yeah I am
Grand Central know my chapter so a gambler's who I am
Bent my life on music now you see I'm shakin' hands
Dappin' niggas who don't know me they just know that Mojoe jams
Consider Easy as - A poet 'bout his hustle
Got these bricks up on my chest
Fuck a Dr. Phil, I find that music is the best -
Therapy now could it be it's meant for me to fail
Voices in my head tell me that soul music will sell
My heart tells me it will, if we both just keep it real
Mama, just be patient we gon' make it let us grind
Bonnie daddy loves you just give me a little time
To put this thing together -
Yeah I made yo mama cry, but don't ever wonder why
I was out here in the belly livin' dirty on the low
Drinkin' chasin' women I have nothin' here to show
But the G's my daddy gave me and this blunt I'm 'bout to blow

[Hook]

[Break] x2
Runnin' so long
Hurtin' my genes
Just wanna go home
Lost in the street

[Hook]

[Outro]
Could it be I'm a slave -
Could it be I'm a slave -
Could it be I'm a slave to the game?
