Lyrics Translation

Yeah, somebody on
Somebody hit me today and they were like
"Nah, just make sure, you know
You tell me what to do when I get there, you know?"
(June, you're a genius)
I said, I respect it, no problem
I got all these blessings just to give it to others anyway
Know what I'm sayin'?
Yeah
My hand's always open, for real

Ayy, thirty-three years, I gave that to the game
Thirty-three mil, I save that for the ring
Five hundred weeks, I fill the charts with my pain
Five hundred mil and I fall back in the 6ix
Finally give you niggas the space you need to exist
Michael Jackson shit, but the palace is not for kids
Still women sayin' it's childish the way we live
Brought a few Ws to the 6ix
Baby mama fluke, but I love her for who she is
Baby, Wayne and Tez responsible for this shit
Half the time, I question my consciousness in this shit
Other times, I question if compliments are legit
Full-time, I'm out here, confident as a bitch
Tryna make good on the promises that I give
Tryna make sure my accomplices are legit
Register the business in my brother's name
Thirty-five hunnid in the pocket, that should cover things
Certified loverman, trappin' out the motherland
Always move right, so my watch is on the other hand
She can try and play it down now, but she was a fan
People wanna know what's in my pockets, they don't understand
My assistant always findin' Percocet and rubber bands
Know my mom might not want to hear how I discover plans
Word to Sandra Graham, no one love you like your mother can
I watched Michael Rubin win a million off a couple hands
I decide what to see next like it's on demand
I decide what to be next like I'm switchin' plans
I'ma tell you what you feel next like the weatherman
I will split heads and break necks for my little man
6 God, praying hands like I'm a religious man
But I'm just a sicker man, wicked man
Look, we can argue back and forth, but who's the richer man?
Isn't that what matters in this world that we livin' in?
Bang those dividends, snakes stay slitherin'
How you plan to make it to the top by just fittin' it?
How you plan to take a nigga's spot by just givin' in?
How you gon' treat this shit like you gon' get to live again?
How you gettin' hype off one hit? Do that shit again
How you got a manager you met after you got the win?
Bet you got some niggas that'll love you to the bitter end
Bet you got somebody that's just smarter than your other friends
Give 'em a percentage, see what happens to your blessings then
You just need to stay close to your people
That was there when others could've been
Then when others should've been
Got a nigga starin' at the game like, "damn coach, put him in"
But you never listen, so you niggas going wood again
Got us in the crib, talkin' 'bout what niggas coulda been, shoulda been
And I got your girl on the second floor, beggin' me to put it in
And it's not because all of the money that you wouldn't spend
And it's not because I set it up to try and get revenge
It's because you niggas insecure, you ain't made men
It's because, even though you hate on me, we stay friends
It's because you niggas never learn when to say when, yeah

For real
Facts, you know what I'm sayin'
Yeah

Yeah, somebody on
Yeah, tem alguém ligado
Somebody hit me today and they were like
Alguém me ligou hoje e disse
"Nah, just make sure, you know
"Não, só tenha certeza, entende?
You tell me what to do when I get there, you know?"
Você me diz o que fazer quando eu chegar aí, sabe?
(June, you're a genius)
(June, você é um gênio)
I said, I respect it, no problem
Eu disse, eu respeito isso, sem problemas
I got all these blessings just to give it to others anyway
Eu tenho todas essas bençãos só pra dar pra outras pessoas mesmo
Know what I'm sayin'?
Entende o que eu estou dizendo?
Yeah
Yeah
My hand's always open, for real
Minha mão está sempre aberta, de verdade
Ayy, thirty-three years, I gave that to the game
Ei, trinta e três anos, coloquei tudo nesse jogo
Thirty-three mil, I save that for the ring
Trinta e três milhões, eu guardo isso pro anel
Five hundred weeks, I fill the charts with my pain
Quinhentas semanas, eu loto os charts com minha dor
Five hundred mil and I fall back in the 6ix
Quinhentos milhões e eu caio de volta em Toronto
Finally give you niggas the space you need to exist
Finalmente dou a vocês niggas o espaço que vocês precisam pra existir
Michael Jackson shit, but the palace is not for kids
Michael Jackson merda, mas o palácio não é para crianças
Still women sayin' it's childish the way we live
Ainda tem mulher dizendo é criancice do jeito que a gente vive
Brought a few Ws to the 6ix
Conquistei umas vitórias para a cidade de Toronto
Baby mama fluke, but I love her for who she is
A mãe do bebê tem sorte, mas a amo pelo que ela é
Baby, Wayne and Tez responsible for this shit
Baby, o Wayne e o Tez são responsáveis por isso
Half the time, I question my consciousness in this shit
Metade do tempo eu questiono minha consciência nessa merda
Other times, I question if compliments are legit
Outras vezes eu questiono se os elogios são sinceros
Full-time, I'm out here, confident as a bitch
Em tempo integral eu estou aqui fora, confiante pra caralho
Tryna make good on the promises that I give
Tentando manter as promessas que eu faço
Tryna make sure my accomplices are legit
Tentando garantir que meus sócios são legítimos
Register the business in my brother's name
Registrar meus negócios no nome do meu irmão
Thirty-five hunnid in the pocket, that should cover things
Três mil e quinhentos no bolso dela, isso deve cobrir as despesas
Certified loverman, trappin' out the motherland
Um amante certificado, viajando fora do país
Always move right, so my watch is on the other hand
Sempre dando o passo certo, então meu relógio está no outro braço
She can try and play it down now, but she was a fan
Ela pode tentar e jogar agora, mas ela era uma fã
People wanna know what's in my pockets, they don't understand
As pessoas querem saber o que tem nos meus bolsos, eles não entendem
My assistant always findin' Percocet and rubber bands
Meus assistentes sempre achando Percocet e elásticos
Know my mom might not want to hear how I discover plans
Sei que minha mãe não quer saber como eu descubro planos
Word to Sandra Graham, no one love you like your mother can
Saudações para Sandra Graham, ninguém te ama como sua mãe
I watched Michael Rubin win a million off a couple hands
Eu vi o Michael Rubin ganhar um milhão em umas duas tentativas de jogo
I decide what to see next like it's on demand
Eu decido o que ver depois como faço no on demand
I decide what to be next like I'm switchin' plans
Eu decido o que ser em seguida como se estivesse mudando de planos
I'ma tell you what you feel next like the weatherman
Eu vou te dizer o que sentir em seguida como o cara da previsão do tempo
I will split heads and break necks for my little man
Eu vou partir cabeças e quebrar pescoços pelo meu homenzinho
6 God, praying hands like I'm a religious man
6 God, mãos rezando como se eu fosse um cara religioso
But I'm just a sicker man, wicked man
Mas eu sou apenas um cara mais louco, um cara maneiro
Look, we can argue back and forth, but who's the richer man?
Olha, nós podemos bater boca, mas quem é o cara mais rico?
Isn't that what matters in this world that we livin' in?
Não é isso que importa nesse mundo em que a gente vive?
Bang those dividends, snakes stay slitherin'
Foda aqueles credores, cobras ficam escorregando
How you plan to make it to the top by just fittin' it?
Como você planeja chegar ao topo apenas tentando fazer parte?
How you plan to take a nigga's spot by just givin' in?
Como você planeja pegar o lugar de um nigga se você está desistindo?
How you gon' treat this shit like you gon' get to live again?
Como você vai tratar essa merda como se você fosse viver de novo?
How you gettin' hype off one hit? Do that shit again
Como você vai fazer sucesso só com um hit? Faça aquela merda de novo
How you got a manager you met after you got the win?
Como você aceita um empresário que você acabou de conhecer depois de uma vitoria?
Bet you got some niggas that'll love you to the bitter end
Aposto que você tem uns niggas que vão te amar até o fim
Bet you got somebody that's just smarter than your other friends
Aposto que você conseguiu alguém que é mais inteligente do que seus outros amigos
Give 'em a percentage, see what happens to your blessings then
Dê a eles uma porcentagem, vê o que acontece com suas bençãos então
You just need to stay close to your people
Você só precisa ficar perto das pessoas que te amam
That was there when others could've been
Que estavam lá quando outros nao podiam estar
Then when others should've been
E quando outros deveriam estar
Got a nigga starin' at the game like, "damn coach, put him in"
Vi um nigga encarando o jogo dizendo, "treinador maldito, coloca ele no jogo"
But you never listen, so you niggas going wood again
Mas você nunca escuta, então vocês niggas vão se fuder de novo
Got us in the crib, talkin' 'bout what niggas coulda been, shoulda been
Pegou a gente em casa, falando sobre o que os nego poderiam ter sido, deveriam ter sido
And I got your girl on the second floor, beggin' me to put it in
Eu eu to com sua mina no segundo andar, me implorando pra comer ela
And it's not because all of the money that you wouldn't spend
E não é por causa de todo o dinheiro que você não gastou
And it's not because I set it up to try and get revenge
E não é porque armei tudo pra me vingar
It's because you niggas insecure, you ain't made men
É porque vocês niggas são inseguros, vocês não foram feitos homem
It's because, even though you hate on me, we stay friends
É porque, apesar de você me odiar, a gente mantém a amizade
It's because you niggas never learn when to say when, yeah
É porque vocês niggas nunca aprendem quando dizer quando, yeah
For real
De verdade
Facts, you know what I'm sayin'
Fatos, você sabe do que estou falando
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah, somebody on
Sí, alguien sobre
Somebody hit me today and they were like

I said, I respect it, no problem

Ayy, thirty-three years, I gave that to the game
Ey, treinta y tres años, le di eso al juego
Thirty-three mil, I save that for the ring
Treinta y tres millones, guardé eso por el anillo
Five hundred weeks, I fill the charts with my pain
Quinientas semanas, lleno los rankings con mi dolor
Five hundred mil and I fall back in the 6ix
Quinientos millones y me recuesto en el 6ix
Finally give you niggas the space you need to exist
Finalmente les doy a ustedes negros el espacio

Other times, I question if compliments are legit
Otras veces, cuestiono si los halagos son legítimos
Full-time, I'm out here, confident as a bitch
Tiempo completo, estoy aquí afuera, confiado como una perra
Tryna make good on the promises that I give
Tratando de cumplir las promesas que doy
Tryna make sure my accomplices are legit
Tratando de asegurar que mis cómplices son legítimos
Register the business in my brother's name
Registro el negocio a nombre de mi hermano
Thirty-five hunnid in the pocket, that should cover things
Tres mil quinientos en el bolsillo, ese debería cubrir cosas
Certified loverman, trappin' out the motherland
Amante certificado, trapeando en Africa
Always move right, so my watch is on the other hand
Siempre me muevo bien, así que mi reloj está sobre la otra mano
She can try and play it down now, but she was a fan
Ella puede tratar de minimizarlo ahora, pero era fan
People wanna know what's in my pockets, they don't understand
Gente quiere saber que hay en mis bolsillos, no entienden
My assistant always findin' Percocet and rubber bands
Mi asistente siempre encontrando Percocet y ligas
Know my mom might not want to hear how I discover plans
Sé que mi mamá quizás no quiera escuchar cómo descubro planes
Word to Sandra Graham, no one love you like your mother can
Palabra a Sandra Graham, nadie te amo como puede tu mamá
I watched Michael Rubin win a million off a couple hands
Miré a Michael Rubin ganar un millón con un par de manos
I decide what to see next like it's on demand
Yo decido qué ver después como a pedido
I decide what to be next like I'm switchin' plans
Yo decido que ser después como si estuviera cambiando de planes
I'ma tell you what you feel next like the weatherman
Te diré lo que sientes después como el hombre del tiempo
I will split heads and break necks for my little man
Dividiré cabezas y romperé cuellos por mi hijito
6 God, praying hands like I'm a religious man
6 God, manos rezando como si fuera un hombre religioso
But I'm just a sicker man, wicked man
Pero solo soy un hombre más enfermo, hombre vil
Look, we can argue back and forth, but who's the richer man?
Mira, podemos discutir y discutir, ¿pero quién es el hombre más rico?
Isn't that what matters in this world that we livin' in?
¿No es eso lo que importa en este mundo en el que vivimos?
Bang those dividends, snakes stay slitherin'
Golpea esos dividendos, serpientes permanecen deslizándose
How you plan to make it to the top by just fittin' it?
¿Cómo planeas llegar a la cima con solo encajar?
How you plan to take a nigga's spot by just givin' in?
¿Cómo planeas quitarle el lugar a un negro simplemente cediendo?
How you gon' treat this shit like you gon' get to live again?
¿Cómo vas a tratar esta mierda como si te tocará vivir otra vez?
How you gettin' hype off one hit? Do that shit again
¿Cómo te emocionas con un solo éxito? Haz esa mierda otra vez
How you got a manager you met after you got the win?
¿Cómo tienes un manager que conociste después de que ganaste?
Bet you got some niggas that'll love you to the bitter end

Bet you got somebody that's just smarter than your other friends
Apuesto a que tienes a alguien que es más inteligente que tus otros amigos
Give 'em a percentage, see what happens to your blessings then
Dales un porcentaje, ve qué sucede con tus bendiciones entonces
You just need to stay close to your people
Solo tienes que quedarte cerca de tu gente
That was there when others could've been
Que estuvo ahí cuando otros pudieron haber estado
Then when others should've been
Cuando otros deberían de haber estado
Got a nigga starin' at the game like, "damn coach, put him in"
Tengo a un negro mirando al juego como, "caray coach, mételo"
But you never listen, so you niggas going wood again
Pero nunca escuchas, así que ustedes negros venderán madera otra vez
Got us in the crib, talkin' 'bout what niggas coulda been, shoulda been
Nos tiene en la jaula, hablando de lo que los negros podrían haber sido, deberían haber sido
And I got your girl on the second floor, beggin' me to put it in
Y tengo a tu chica en el segundo piso, rogándome que se la meta
And it's not because all of the money that you wouldn't spend
Y no es por todo el dinero que no gastaste
And it's not because I set it up to try and get revenge
Y no es por lo configuré para tratar de vengarme
It's because you niggas insecure, you ain't made men
Es porque ustedes negros son inseguros, no son hombres hechos
It's because, even though you hate on me, we stay friends
Es porque, aunque me odian, seguimos siendo amigos
It's because you niggas never learn when to say when, yeah
Es porque ustedes negros nunca aprenden cuando decir cuando, sí
For real
De verdad

6 God, praying hands like I'm a religious man
6 Dieu, mains en prière comme si j'étais un homme religieux
But I'm just a sicker man, wicked man
Mais je suis juste un homme plus malade, un homme méchant
Look, we can argue back and forth, but who's the richer man?
Regarde, on peut se disputer en aller-retour, mais qui est l'homme le plus riche ?
Isn't that what matters in this world that we livin' in?
N'est-ce pas ce qui compte dans ce monde dans lequel nous vivons ?
Bang those dividends, snakes stay slitherin'
Frappez ces dividendes, les serpents continuent de ramper
How you plan to make it to the top by just fittin' it?
Comment comptes-tu atteindre le sommet en te contentant de t'adapter ?
How you plan to take a nigga's spot by just givin' in?

Et ce n'est pas à cause de tout l'argent que tu n'as pas dépensé
And it's not because I set it up to try and get revenge
Et ce n'est pas parce que je l'ai préparé pour essayer de me venger
It's because you niggas insecure, you ain't made men
