• 作者: 2Pac

歌词与翻译

[中文]

（无线电杂音）

（直升机盘旋声）

（警笛哀鸣）

（女人啜泣）

- [图派克] 用这街头福音给他们一击

- [埃尔顿] 所有渴望追随我的人

- [图派克] 我的街头福音

- [埃尔顿] 我以双手迎接

当赤红夕阳最终沉落

坠入金色山峦

愿和平降临这位年轻战士

不再有枪声响起

- [图派克] 若能重溯街头混迹前的时光

静坐追忆往昔

怀念那些纯真岁月

驻足凝望年轻一代

心绪随之起伏

他们在重压下接受试炼

如今世道已变

人人以年轻为耻

因真相太过刺眼

而于我却是倒影

我们留下满目疮痍

这伤痛

因随时可能引爆的按钮

如同马尔科姆·X的牺牲

鲍比·赫顿白白送命

难道不令你泪目

这世界阴云密布

拭目细看方知真相

无需对我畏惧

若你耐心倾听

或许会为我喝彩

无关黑白只因同属人类

唯愿在毁灭前看见曙光

我的街头福音

- [埃尔顿] 所有渴望追随我的人

- [图派克] 我的街头福音

- [埃尔顿] 我以双手迎接

当赤红夕阳最终沉落

坠入金色山峦

愿和平降临这位年轻战士

不再有枪声响起

- [图派克] 看见那位老妇人了吗

何其悲哀

以袋为家

却为微薄所有感恩

那边有位女子

被毒品摧残心智

正诞下新生命

我不沉溺也不逃避

跳出煎锅

又陷新型奴役

即便此刻心生倦意

若一切被剥夺

勇气是否犹存

拒做他人楷模

自定目标掌控命运

独饮自斟

过错中汲取教训

当尘埃落定

定会浴火重生

若我令你不安 请勿焦虑

上帝尚未完成对我的雕琢

执笔时感受祂抚触灵台

双目失焦任主执掌

任主指引

难道吞吐云雾

与兄弟共饮啤酒

便减损圣洁

欲求世界和平

先止街头战火

我的街头福音

- [埃尔顿] 所有渴望追随我的人

- [图派克] 我的街头福音

- [埃尔顿] 我以双手迎接

当赤红夕阳最终沉落

坠入金色山峦

愿和平降临这位年轻战士

不再有枪声响起

- [图派克] 主啊可听见我祈祷

为赎这炼狱之罪

- [Tupac] Hit 'em with a little ghetto gospel

- [Elton John] Those who wish to follow me

- [Tupac] My ghetto gospel

- [Elton] I welcome with my hands

And the red sun sinks at last

Into the hills of gold

And peace to this young warrior

without the sounds of guns

- [Tupac] If I could recollect before my hood days

I sit and reminisce

Thinking of bliss and the good days

I stop and stare at the younger

My heart goes to 'em

They tested with stress that they under

And nowadays, things change.

Everyone's ashamed of the youth

'Cause the truth look strange

And for me, it's reversed.

We left 'em a world that's cursed

And it hurts

'Cause any day they'll push the button

And all come in like Malcolm X

or Bobby Hutton died for nothing

Don't it make you get teary

The world looks dreary

When you wipe your eyes, see it clearly

There's no need for you to fear me

If you take your time and hear me

Maybe you can learn to cheer me

It ain't about black or white 'cause we human

I hope we see the light before it's ruined,

My ghetto gospel

- [Elton] Those who wish to follow me

- [Tupac] My ghetto gospel

- [Elton] I welcome with my hands

And the red sun sinks at last

Into the hills of gold

And peace to this young warrior

Without the sound of guns

- [Tupac] Tell me do you see that old lady

Ain't it sad

Living out of bags

Plus she's glad for the little things she has

And over there, there's a lady

Crack got her crazy

Guess who's giving birth to a baby

I don't trip or let it fade me

From out the fryin' pan

We jump into another form of slavery

Even now I get discouraged

Wonder if they take it all back

Will I still keep the courage

I refuse to be a role model

I set goals, take control,

drink out my own bottles

I make mistakes, but learn from every one

And when it's said and done

I bet this brother be a better one

If I upset you, don't stress, never forget

That God isn't finished with me yet

I feel his hand on my brain

When I write rhymes, I go blind

and let the Lord do his thing

But am I less holy

'Cause I chose to puff a

and drink a beer with my homies

Before we find world peace

We gotta find peace and end the war in the streets

My ghetto gospel

- [Elton] Those who wish to follow me

- [Tupac] My ghetto gospel

- [Elton] I welcome with my hands

And the red sun sinks at last

Into the hills of gold

And peace to this young warrior

Without the sound of guns

- [Tupac] Lord can you hear me speak

To pay the price of being hell bound
