N.W.A - Express Yourself (Extended Mix) [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

(Intro)
Yo man there's alot of brothers out there
Flakin and perpatratin who scared to kick reality
Yo Dre you've been doin all this dope producin'
You ain't had a chance to show 'em what time it is
So watch do you want me to do...
All you got to do now, express yourself

(Verse 1)
I'm expressin' with my full capabilities
Now I'm livin' in correctional facilities
Coz some don't agree wit how I do this
I get straight, meditate, like a Buddhist
I'm droppin' flavor, my behavior is hereditary
But my technique is very necessary
Blame it on Ice Cube, because he said it gets funky
When you got a subject and a predicate
Add it on a dope beat, and it'll make ya think
Some suckers just tickle me pink, to my stomach
Cause they don't flow like this one
You know what, I won't hesitate to dis one or two before I'm through
So don't try to sing this
Some drop science, well I'm droppin' English
Even if Yella, makes it a-capella
I still express, yo I don't smoke weed or sess
Cause its known to give a brother brain damage
And brain damage on the mic don't manage nuttin'
But makin' a sucker and you equal
Don't be another sequel

(Hook)
Express yourself
Do it good
Express yourself
Oh do it

(Ice-Cube Interlude)
Ice Cube, is not for the pop charts
So where should a brother like you start expressin' yourself
My boy'll show you how Yo Dre

(Dr. Dre)
What up?

(Ice Cube)
Drop English right about...

(Verse 2, Dr. Dre)
Now, gettin' back to the PG
That's Program, and it's easy
Dre is back, New Jacks are made hollow
Expressin' ain't their subject because they like to follow the words
The style, the trend, the records I spin
Again and again and again
Yo ya on the other end
Watch a brother playin' dope rhymes, with no help
There's no fessin' and guessin' while I'm expressin myself
It's crazy to see people be what society wants 'em to be
But not me
Ruthless, is the way to go, they know
Others say rhymes that fail to be original
Or they kill where the hip-hop starts
Forget about the ghetto, and rap for the pop charts
And those musicians, curse at home
But scared to use profanity, when up on the microphone
Yeah they want reality, but you won't hear none
They rather exaggerate a little fiction
Some say no to drugs, and take a stand
But after the show they go lookin for the dope man
Oh they ban my group from the radio
Hear N.W.A. and say ''Hell no!''
But you know it ain't all about wealth
As long as you make a note to
(express yourself)

(Hook)
Express yourself
Do it do...
Express yourself
Oh do it!

(MC Ren Interlude)
A lyricist, yo Dre is the name for it
To make somethin' dope on a record that's what he came for
Kickin' reality yo but staying hisself
But it's important to keep it in mind to
(express yourself)

(Verse 3, Dr. Dre)
From the heart if you wanna start to move up the chart then
Expression is big part of it
You ain't efficient when you flow, you ain't swift
Movin' like a tortise, full of rigor mortise
There's a little bit more to show
I got rhymes in my mind, embedded like an embryo
Or a lesson, all of them expression
And if you start fessin', I got a Smith&Wesson for ya
I might ignore you're record, because it has no bottom
I get loose in the Summer, Winter, Spring and Autumn
It's Dre on the mic gettin physical
Doin' the job, NWA is the lynch mob
Yes I'm macabre, but you know you need this
And the knowledge is growin' just like a fetus
Or a tumor, but here's the rumour, Dre's in the neighborhood and he's up to no good
When I start expressin myself, Yella slam it
Cause if I stay funky like this, I'm doin damage
Or I'mma be too hyped, I need a straight jacket
I got knowledge, and other suckers lack it
So when you see Dre, a DJ on the mic
Ask what it's like, it's like we gettin' hype tonight
Cause if I strike, It ain't for your good health
But I won't strike if you just
(express yourself)

(Hook)
Express Yourself
Do it good...
Express Yourself
Oh do it
