Soul Major - Trinidad Boulevard [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
Roll like sopranos, loadin' up the ammos
War on their foes niggas hoppin' out of manholes
Night time candles, layin' on the block
He in a closed box with handles they sayin' that he got
About 5 shots, and that’s all at close range
All to the face, damn lord, it’s so strange
We pray everyday situations don’t change
Try'na see a better way but my vision is so glazed
And it’s craze and I'm amazed that this is what it’s come to
Everybody here schemin', who you gonna run to?
And what y'all be callin' a 187, we call just another day where we livin'
It ain't prison but your freedom is unseen
Police on the scene that’s the pigs they unclean
And this is the umpteenth, time I done seen that yellow line
Seen that white chalk, and seen that momma cry
Where the crime rate is sky scraped you better find faith
So when you die you leave in a divine state why wait
As long as ya alive that mean ya time is comin'
Where the number of homicides is stunnin' (where I'm from)

[Hook]
Can I tell ya bout that place that I'm from?
Where you either live or die by the gun
They ride at night time, they hide from the sun
Father say bye bye, mama lie to the son
Just so he won’t ever know his real dad
He either in the jail or in the graveyard
So if you think you got it bad and where you livin' really hard
Come take a walk with me down a Trinidad boulevard

[Verse 2]
Where we play fight 'til that shit turn serious
Somebody gotta bleed like a bitch on her period
You's a bitch nigga period, backspace, exclamation
Snitches left with a flat face fuck ya explanation
Coughin' up blood, blockin' off your respiration
The doctor’s face is covered up with desperation
You ain't gon’ make it, witnessin' your suffocation
Driftin' to a permanent vacation
Satan is your next stop, you hear him screamin' next up
That’ll be you he bendin' over, yup, and that's messed up
But you should have known follow the rules where you’ve grown
That’s been sewn to me like it’s engraved in a stone
You came then you gone that’s just the cycle of life
Niggas in your home pass the knife to your wife
Put the bible in your left hand the rifle in ya right
Cause they just might stifle ya life(where I'm from)

[Hook]
Can I tell ya bout that place that I'm from?
Where you either live or die by the gun
They ride at night time, they hide from the sun
Father say bye bye, mama lie to the son
Just so he won’t ever know his real dad
He either in the jail or in the graveyard
So if you think you got it bad and where you livin' really hard
Come take a walk with me down a Trinidad boulevard

[Verse 3]
Where papa bird leaves the nest, the eggs and the moms
Grown lions leave the lioness with the cubs
Left to face this violence in the slums
I'm from where dirt get mixed in blood, I'm from the mud
You don’t wanna dive in, rich niggas thrivin'
Broke niggas starvin', and that’s the bracket that I'm in
I'm try'na break free, but this society hates me
They say we all equal, but they quietly snakes me
They wouldn’t give two bucks to a brother man
So I don’t give two fucks bout the government
I studied for twenty years so I was like yea
Time to make that 9 to 5 money, hire me, here
I sent my resume' to a hundred different places
Not one call back, this government is racist
Why they ain't respondin' got me feelin' so despondent
Most my homies turned to mobbin', the others turned to robbin'
I turned to hip hoppin' I'm hopin' that it pay off
Most say I'm hot, the others hatin' like Adolf
Avoid all the chaos try'na get my spaceship to take off
So I'm up all night, and I don’t ever take a day off!

[Hook x2]
Can I tell ya bout that place that I'm from?
Where you either live or die by the gun
They ride at night time, they hide from the sun
Father say bye bye, mama lie to the son
Just so he won’t ever know his real dad
He either in the jail or in the graveyard
So if you think you got it bad and where you livin' really hard
Come take a walk with me down a Trinidad boulevard
