[Intro]
这张专辑献给那些认定我没出息的老师们
This album is dedicated to all the teachers that told me I’d never amount to nothing
和那些报警抓我的所谓上流人士
to all the people that lived above the buildings that I was hustling in front of that called the police on me
我只不过卖点货养活我的女儿
when I was just trying to make some money to feed my daughter
还有那些在奋斗中的兄弟们，你懂我的意思吗？
And all the niggas in the struggle, you know what I’m saying?
一切都还不错，宝贝
It’s all good baby baby
[Verse 1]
这一切如同南柯一梦
It was all a dream
我曾天天看《Word Up》杂志 【第一本专注于饶舌的出版物】
I used to read Word Up magazine
坐在车里放着老牌的音乐【Salt’n’Pepa 是迄今为止最牛的女子Rapper团体，Biggie早期接触的饶舌组合。牙买加Rapper Heavy D 是Bling Rap的发明者】
Salt’n’Pepa and Heavy D up in the limousine
在墙上挂他们的海报
Hangin pictures on my wall
每个星期六收听说唱电台【Rap Attack是早期电台类说唱节目 主持人是Magic,DJ是Marley Marl】
Every Saturday Rap Attack, Mr. Magic, Marley Marl
随身听里一直放着饶舌歌儿，直到磁带卷了带
I let my tape rock til my tape popped
抽着香烟和大麻，再灌一口啤酒【Private Stock 一种廉价啤酒】
Smokin weed and Bambu, sippin on Private Stock
那时我穿着黑红配色的帽衫去参加Battle比赛
Way back, when I had the red and black lumberjack
那都是很久以前的事儿了
With the hat to match
还记得Rapping Duke么？哒哈，哒哈 【Rapping Duke是最早的饶舌歌手之一，duh-ha, duh-ha是他同名单曲里的副歌】
Remember Rappin Duke? duh-ha, duh-ha
你从未想过Hip-Hop会走这么远
You never thought that hip hop would take it this far
现在我引人注目因为我舌灿莲花【舌灿莲花 来譬喻说话的文采和美妙】
Now I’m in the limelight cause I rhyme tight
到收获的时候了，我一夜成名，就像世贸大厦爆炸那样声势浩大【Biggie在93年发迹，同时93年世贸中心遭受过卡车炸弹袭击】
Time to get paid, blow up like the World Trade
天生的罪人，成功者的反义词
Born sinner, the opposite of a winner
记得当年，我晚餐只能吃廉价的沙丁鱼
Remember when I used to eat sardines for dinner
向Ron G, Brucey B, Kid Capri致敬【都是八九十年代的DJ】
Peace to Ron G, Brucey B, Kid Capri
向Funkmaster Flex, Lovebug Starski致敬！
Funkmaster Flex, Lovebug Starski (wassup)
正如你们所期望的那样，我成功了
I’m blowin up like you thought I would
但我还住在原来的小屋，还在布鲁克林，还是那个门牌号
Call the crib, same number same hood (that’s right)
一切都还不错
It’s all good (it’s alll good)
如果你不了解我的经历，现在你明白了吧，朋友
And if you don’t know, now you know, nigga
[Hook]
你很清楚自己是谁【副歌部分取自James Mtume的Juicy Fruit】
You know very well who you are
别让他们控制你，奋勇争先
Don’t let em hold you down, reach for the stars
你有过人之处，但并不十全十美
You had a few, but not that many
但你是天下无双的所以我愿为你倾尽所有
Cause you’re the only one I’ll give you good and plenty
[Verse 2]
从一个平凡的小痞子变成现在的我
I made the change from a common thief
登上人物聚焦和电视栏目【Robin Leach是一档专门介绍名人生活方式的电视节目】
To up close and personal with Robin Leach
我早已摆脱贫穷，和我的兄弟们抽一整天的烟
And I’m far from cheap, I smoke skunk with my peeps all day
传递爱心，这是布鲁克林的方式
Spread love, it’s the Brooklyn way
香槟和白兰地让我醉醺醺【Moet:高档香槟； Alize:果味白兰地】
The Moet and Alize keep me pissy
以前姑娘们曾经瞧不起我
Girls used to diss me
现在她们给我写信因为她们想我
Now they write letters cause they miss me
从未想到这些由说唱带来的效应会发生
I never thought it could happen, this rappin stuff
收拾东西，打包枪械逃跑才是我再熟悉不过的事
I was too used to packin GATs and stuff
现在姑娘们把我围住，我们像黄油和面包一样黏在一起
Now honeys play me close like butter play toast
从密西西比到东海岸都是这样
From the Mississippi down to the east coast
皇后区的简陋平房，精心烘烤的大麻
Condos in Queens, endo for weeks
票已售罄，人人都想听我的说唱
Sold out seats to hear Biggie Smalls speak
无所畏惧的活着
Livin life without fear
给女儿带上五克拉的耳钻
Puttin 5 karats in my baby girl’s ears
午餐，早午餐，在私人泳池接受采访
Lunches, brunches, interviews by the pool
曾被当做蠢材因为我高中都没念完
Considered a fool cause I dropped out of high school
我代表了你们对于黑人男性的典型误解
Stereotypes of a black male misunderstood
但一切都还不错
And it’s still all good
如果你不了解我的经历，现在你明白了吧，朋友
Uh…and if you don’t know, now you know, nigga
[Hook]
你很清楚自己是谁【副歌部分取自James Mtume的Juicy Fruit】
You know very well who you are
别让他们控制你，奋勇争先
Don’t let em hold you down, reach for the stars
你有过人之处，但并不十全十美
You had a few, but not that many
但你是天下无双的所以我愿为你倾尽所有
Cause you’re the only one I’ll give you good and plenty
[Verse 3]
任天堂，世嘉游戏机
Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis
当我身无分文的时候我不敢奢望
When I was dead broke, man I couldn’t picture this
50英尺的大屏幕，钞票绿的皮革沙发
50-inch screen, money green leather sofa
有了两辆车，一辆豪华车还配了司机
Got two rides, a limousine with a chauffeur
2000块的电话账单
Phone bill about two G’s flat
没必要担心，让我的会计来处理
No need to worry, my accountant handles that
我的一帮朋友都在享受
And my whole crew is lounging
每天都像过节，再不用挤在公共房屋
Celebrating every day, no more public housing
回想我出生的那间小屋棚
Thinking back on my one-room shack
现在我妈开高级车，穿貂皮大衣
Now my mom pimps a Ac with minks on her back
当然，她喜欢炫耀她的宝贝儿子
And she loves to show me off, of course
每次看见我出现在《Source》封面都会微笑 【The Source和XXL是最流行的HIP-HOP杂志】
Smiles every time my face is up in The Source
我们娘俩曾经被房东的羞辱烦扰
We used to fuss when the landlord dissed us
曾经住进没有暖气的房子，我想知道为什么圣诞节遗忘了我们
No heat, wonder why Christmas missed us
没有钱买礼物，生日是最糟糕的一天
Birthdays was the worst days
现在我们拿高档香槟当水喝【一般来说香槟只有在庆祝等特殊场合在会喝】
Now we sip champagne when we thirst-ay
我当然喜欢我现在的生活
Uh, damn right I like the life I live
因为我从囊空如洗到家财万贯
Cause I went from negative to positive
就到这儿吧
And it’s all
如果你不了解我的经历，现在你明白了吧，朋友
…and if you don’t know, now you know, nigga
[Hook]
