Lyrics Translation

Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
Now we've been through a lot of things
Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
We done seen a lot of things
Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
Been through a lot of things
Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)

Sittin' by myself, I'm just thinkin'
About all I've been through, I wish I was dreaming (Jesus)
Man, it's hard to be an angel when you surrounded by demons (Lord)
I watched so many people leave (Jesus, Lord)
I see 'em change by the season, that's mama's seasonin'
God got you, the devil's watchin', he just peekin' in
I know I made a promise that I'd never let the reaper in (Jesus)
But lately, I've been losing all my deepest friends (Lord)
And lately, I've been swimmin' on the deepest end
It's just drugs, it ain't no hugs, it ain't no love there
You been down so much you don't even know what's upstairs (Jesus)
Suicidal thoughts got you wonderin' what's up there (Lord)
And while they introduce the party, they say it's up there
Too many pills, so much potions, so much pain, too many emotions
And everything that you do good, it just go unnoticed (Jesus)
Did He tell you that you good and just stay focused? (Lord)
Mama, you was the life of the party
I swear you brought life to the party
When you lost your life, it took the life out the party (Jesus)
That woman rode with me like a Harley (Lord)
Visions of my cousin in a cell really scarred me
Movin' to the hood was like signin' up for the army
'Cause they been killin' n- since n- was watchin' Barney (Jesus)
You want dreams to come true? But I have nightmares (Lord)
'Cause if that come to life, then I might not be right here
Been in the dark so long, don't know if the light here
But I'm just reaching for the stars like Buzz Lightyear (Jesus)
And now I'm lightyears ahead of those nightmares (Lord)
I deaded those night terrors when the night clears
And if I talk to Christ, can I bring my mother back to life?
And if I die tonight, will I see her in the afterlife? (Jesus)
But back to reality, where everything's a tragedy (Lord)
And you better have a strategy or you could be a statistic
Little boy dies, he's just one of the mystic
And mama steady crying, 'cause she really the victim (Jesus)
How she's getting high and she's getting addicted (Lord)
And her older boy just stuck with the picture, painted vivid
That's a family portrait, and her daughter just absorbed it
Sixteen, pregnant, baby daddy says she should abort it (Jesus)
But we can't afford it, so she decides to move forward (Lord)
Baby shower time, father didn't show up
Now she just feeling nauseous like she finna throw up
The water flows down her legs, yeah, it's finna go up (Jesus)
A year done went by, her daughter just turned one (Lord)
And she's still dependent on her mom
Big brother in the streets, he went and bought him a gun
He want revenge 'cause the pain, feelin' numb (Jesus)
And her mom still doing drugs 'cause that's the only time she feel loved (Lord)
But is it real love? Do the scars really heal up?
From all the pain that been built up, but they don't feel us (Jesus)
A week done flew by, big bro ridin' then he see the guys (Lord)
Left his little brother on the side, bleeding from the side
He seein' red, it's like he's bleeding through his eyes
To see him dead, the only thing that'll help the grieving up inside (Jesus)
He even let him get the last meal
He done with the streets after this, this his last kill (Lord)
He gotta show him that it's that real
He ran up on him with the pipe like, "N-, stand still" (Jesus)
"You took my brother life, you made my mother cry" (Lord)
"Tell me one reason I shouldn't send you up to Christ"
He said, "Go 'head, take my life, I've seen everything but Christ"
Then big bro just blacked out and all you seen was the light (Jesus, Lord)

Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
Now we've been through a lot of things
Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
We done seen a lot of things
Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
Been through a lot of things
Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)

Uh-huh, in the name of the true and living God, the beneficent, the merciful (Hallelujah)
Thank you for bringing me up the rough side of the mountain like Ertugrul (Jesus)
Every knee bowed and every tongue confessed and paid homage (Lord)
To the monk who visited Rothschilds like Thelonious did Pannonica
It's Jay Elec-entendre-nica comin' through your monitor (sheesh)
Back from the great beyond like the Son of Man or the Son of Donda (Jesus)
I never rolled the GXSR or the R6 or the Honda (Lord)
But I flew my Ducati through North America like Wakanda
Earthquakes will strike this nation for what Bush did to Rwanda (facts)
What the Clintons did to Haiti and Downing Street did to Ghana
In Tenochtitlan, they call me Terremoto, El Negro Loco (Jesus)
I shape the tectonic plates of the game if I lay one vocal (Lord)
The God is interstellar while you fellas remain local
My bars is like the pyramid temples of Pacal Votan (Jesus)
As sure as the DOJ confirmed Ezekiel's Wheel (Lord)
That could change the world like Yacub with two pieces of steel
My sword and my microphone, I swore to the Christ's throne
But when you great, they wanna say you took an L, Jose Castillo (Jesus)
I'm in the fight here, fight here, for what seemed like lightyears (Lord)
My rugged cross and thorny crowns squeeze out Christ tears
Thirty pieces of silver clout, my Pierre price tier
It's a war outside, it's a war outside (Jesus)
It's like the last days of Sodom and Gomorrah outside (Lord)

Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
Now we've been through a lot of things
Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
We done seen a lot of things
Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
Been through a lot of things
Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)

What up, Ye? This Larry Hoover Jr.
First and foremost
I wanna thank you for taking the fight for my father to the Oval Office
You might not have been the only one that could've did that
But you were the one that did do that
And with your assistance, we can continue to let the world take part in this fight
You know, to me, it kinda feels like, me, my mother, my brothers
And my kids have all been incarcerated through this journey
And we haven't even been to jail
We have been looked at, and treated as criminals, for being a part of this family
My father's truth and the reality that he raised me in
Is that he wanted to make a change in this community (tell me if you know someone that needs)
Because the conditions in this capitalist society is what made him
And it's what made the children of today
After twenty-five years of bein' locked down, twenty-three and one
My father has not called any shots
From one of the most secure and segregated prisons in the world
And will not, once released, call any shots for the Gangster Disciples
If my father's intentions were to lead us to death, destruction
Into the hell that he has had to live in for the past twenty-six years?
Man, he would be dead to me
I didn't sign up for that, I didn't stay on this journey this long for that
All my life, man, I've been waitin' for my father to come home
They told me when I graduate eighth grade, he would be home
Then they told me when I graduate from high school, he would be home
I went away to Morris Brown, I graduated, and he still ain't home
Now I'm an adult, and my daughter went away to college and graduated
He's still not home, now even more than that
My son, he graduated eighth grade and we still waitin'
Matter of fact, he hasn't hugged, kissed, or touched any of his grandchildren
And they haven't been able to touch they grandfather
Even though it is not seen that way for some of us, but for many of us
Larry Hoover is a beacon of hope for his community who deserves to breathe free air
Free my father (Jesus), Mr. Larry Hoover Sr. (Lord)

Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
Diga-me se você conhece alguém que precisa (Jesus, Senhor)
Now we've been through a lot of things
Agora nós passamos por muitas coisas
Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
Diga-me se você conhece alguém que precisa (Jesus, Senhor)
We done seen a lot of things
Nós vimos muitas coisas
Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
Diga-me se você conhece alguém que precisa (Jesus, Senhor)
Been through a lot of things
Passamos por muitas coisas
Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
Diga-me se você conhece alguém que precisa (Jesus, Senhor)
Sittin' by myself, I'm just thinkin'
Sentado sozinho, estou apenas pensando
About all I've been through, I wish I was dreaming (Jesus)
Sobre tudo que passei, gostaria de estar sonhando (Jesus)
Man, it's hard to be an angel when you surrounded by demons (Lord)
Cara, é difícil ser um anjo quando você está cercado por demônios (Senhor)
I watched so many people leave (Jesus, Lord)
Eu vi tantas pessoas partirem (Jesus, Senhor)
I see 'em change by the season, that's mama's seasonin'
Eu as vejo mudar com as estações, é o tempero da mamãe
God got you, the devil's watchin', he just peekin' in
Deus te protege, o diabo está observando, ele só está espiando
I know I made a promise that I'd never let the reaper in (Jesus)
Eu sei que fiz uma promessa de que nunca deixaria a morte entrar (Jesus)
But lately, I've been losing all my deepest friends (Lord)
Mas ultimamente, tenho perdido todos os meus amigos mais próximos (Senhor)
And lately, I've been swimmin' on the deepest end
E ultimamente, tenho nadado no fundo do poço
It's just drugs, it ain't no hugs, it ain't no love there
São apenas drogas, não há abraços, não há amor lá
You been down so much you don't even know what's upstairs (Jesus)
Você esteve tão pra baixo que nem sabe o que está lá em cima (Jesus)
Suicidal thoughts got you wonderin' what's up there (Lord)
Pensamentos suicidas te fazem se perguntar o que há lá em cima (Senhor)
And while they introduce the party, they say it's up there
E enquanto eles apresentam a festa, eles dizem que está lá em cima
Too many pills, so much potions, so much pain, too many emotions
Muitas pílulas, muitas poções, muita dor, muitas emoções
And everything that you do good, it just go unnoticed (Jesus)
E tudo que você faz de bom, simplesmente passa despercebido (Jesus)
Did He tell you that you good and just stay focused? (Lord)
Ele te disse que você é bom e para se manter focado? (Senhor)
Mama, you was the life of the party
Mãe, você era a vida da festa
I swear you brought life to the party
Eu juro que você trouxe vida para a festa
When you lost your life, it took the life out the party (Jesus)
Quando você perdeu sua vida, tirou a vida da festa (Jesus)
That woman rode with me like a Harley (Lord)
Aquela mulher andava comigo como uma Harley (Senhor)
Visions of my cousin in a cell really scarred me
Visões do meu primo na cela realmente me marcaram

Porque eles têm matado n- desde que n- estava assistindo Barney (Jesus)
You want dreams to come true? But I have nightmares (Lord)
Você quer que sonhos se tornem realidade? Mas eu tenho pesadelos (Senhor)
'Cause if that come to life, then I might not be right here
Porque se isso se tornar realidade, então eu posso não estar aqui
Been in the dark so long, don't know if the light here
Estive no escuro por tanto tempo, não sei se a luz está aqui
But I'm just reaching for the stars like Buzz Lightyear (Jesus)
Mas estou apenas alcançando as estrelas como Buzz Lightyear (Jesus)
And now I'm lightyears ahead of those nightmares (Lord)
E agora estou anos-luz à frente desses pesadelos (Senhor)
I deaded those night terrors when the night clears
Eu acabei com esses terrores noturnos quando a noite se esclarece
And if I talk to Christ, can I bring my mother back to life?
E se eu falar com Cristo, posso trazer minha mãe de volta à vida?
And if I die tonight, will I see her in the afterlife? (Jesus)
E se eu morrer esta noite, vou vê-la na vida após a morte? (Jesus)
But back to reality, where everything's a tragedy (Lord)
Mas de volta à realidade, onde tudo é uma tragédia (Senhor)
And you better have a strategy or you could be a statistic

First and foremost
Primeiramente
I wanna thank you for taking the fight for my father to the Oval Office
Eu quero te agradecer por levar a luta pelo meu pai ao Salão Oval

But you were the one that did do that
Mas você foi o único que fez isso
And with your assistance, we can continue to let the world take part in this fight
E com sua ajuda, podemos continuar a deixar o mundo participar desta luta
You know, to me, it kinda feels like, me, my mother, my brothers
Sabe, para mim, meio que parece que, eu, minha mãe, meus irmãos
And my kids have all been incarcerated through this journey
E meus filhos todos foram encarcerados nesta jornada
And we haven't even been to jail
E nós nem mesmo fomos para a cadeia
We have been looked at, and treated as criminals, for being a part of this family
Nós fomos olhados e tratados como criminosos, por sermos parte desta família
My father's truth and the reality that he raised me in
A verdade do meu pai e a realidade em que ele me criou
Is that he wanted to make a change in this community (tell me if you know someone that needs)
É que ele queria fazer uma mudança nesta comunidade (diga-me se você conhece alguém que precisa)
Because the conditions in this capitalist society is what made him
Porque as condições nesta sociedade capitalista é o que o fez
And it's what made the children of today
E é o que fez as crianças de hoje
After twenty-five years of bein' locked down, twenty-three and one
Depois de vinte e cinco anos de estar preso, vinte e três e um
My father has not called any shots
Meu pai não chamou nenhum tiro
From one of the most secure and segregated prisons in the world
De uma das prisões mais seguras e segregadas do mundo
And will not, once released, call any shots for the Gangster Disciples
E não vai, uma vez liberado, chamar nenhum tiro para os Gangster Disciples
If my father's intentions were to lead us to death, destruction
Se as intenções do meu pai fossem nos levar à morte, destruição
Into the hell that he has had to live in for the past twenty-six years?
Para o inferno que ele teve que viver nos últimos vinte e seis anos?
Man, he would be dead to me
Cara, ele estaria morto para mim
I didn't sign up for that, I didn't stay on this journey this long for that
Eu não me inscrevi para isso, eu não fiquei nesta jornada tanto tempo para isso
All my life, man, I've been waitin' for my father to come home
Toda a minha vida, cara, eu estive esperando meu pai voltar para casa
They told me when I graduate eighth grade, he would be home
Eles me disseram quando eu me formei no oitavo ano, ele estaria em casa
Then they told me when I graduate from high school, he would be home
Então eles me disseram quando eu me formei no ensino médio, ele estaria em casa
I went away to Morris Brown, I graduated, and he still ain't home
Eu fui para Morris Brown, me formei, e ele ainda não está em casa
Now I'm an adult, and my daughter went away to college and graduated
Agora eu sou adulto, e minha filha foi para a faculdade e se formou
He's still not home, now even more than that
Ele ainda não está em casa, agora ainda mais do que isso
My son, he graduated eighth grade and we still waitin'
Meu filho, ele se formou no oitavo ano e ainda estamos esperando
Matter of fact, he hasn't hugged, kissed, or touched any of his grandchildren
Na verdade, ele não abraçou, beijou ou tocou nenhum de seus netos
And they haven't been able to touch they grandfather
E eles não puderam tocar no avô deles
Even though it is not seen that way for some of us, but for many of us
Mesmo que não seja visto assim para alguns de nós, mas para muitos de nós

Sittin' by myself, I'm just thinkin'
Sentado solo, solo estoy pensando
About all I've been through, I wish I was dreaming (Jesus)
Sobre todo lo que he pasado, desearía estar soñando (Jesús)
Man, it's hard to be an angel when you surrounded by demons (Lord)
Hombre, es difícil ser un ángel cuando estás rodeado de demonios (Señor)
I watched so many people leave (Jesus, Lord)
He visto a tantas personas irse (Jesús, Señor)
I see 'em change by the season, that's mama's seasonin'
Los veo cambiar con las estaciones, esa es la sazón de mamá
God got you, the devil's watchin', he just peekin' in
Dios te tiene, el diablo está observando, solo está echando un vistazo
I know I made a promise that I'd never let the reaper in (Jesus)
Sé que hice una promesa de que nunca dejaría entrar al segador (Jesús)
But lately, I've been losing all my deepest friends (Lord)
Pero últimamente, he estado perdiendo a mis amigos más profundos (Señor)
And lately, I've been swimmin' on the deepest end
Y últimamente, he estado nadando en el extremo más profundo
It's just drugs, it ain't no hugs, it ain't no love there
Son solo drogas, no hay abrazos, no hay amor allí
You been down so much you don't even know what's upstairs (Jesus)
Has estado tan abajo que ni siquiera sabes qué hay arriba (Jesús)
Suicidal thoughts got you wonderin' what's up there (Lord)
Los pensamientos suicidas te hacen preguntarte qué hay allá arriba (Señor)
And while they introduce the party, they say it's up there
Y mientras presentan la fiesta, dicen que está allá arriba
Too many pills, so much potions, so much pain, too many emotions
Demasiadas pastillas, muchas pociones, mucho dolor, demasiadas emociones
And everything that you do good, it just go unnoticed (Jesus)
Y todo lo que haces bien, simplemente pasa desapercibido (Jesús)
Did He tell you that you good and just stay focused? (Lord)
¿Te dijo que estás bien y solo te mantengas enfocado? (Señor)
Mama, you was the life of the party
Mamá, tú eras la vida de la fiesta
I swear you brought life to the party
Te juro que le diste vida a la fiesta
When you lost your life, it took the life out the party (Jesus)
Cuando perdiste tu vida, le quitaste la vida a la fiesta (Jesús)
That woman rode with me like a Harley (Lord)
Esa mujer rodó conmigo como una Harley (Señor)
Visions of my cousin in a cell really scarred me
Visiones de mi primo en una celda realmente me marcaron
Movin' to the hood was like signin' up for the army
Mudarse al barrio era como alistarse en el ejército
'Cause they been killin' n- since n- was watchin' Barney (Jesus)
Porque han estado matando a n- desde que n- estaba viendo a Barney (Jesús)
You want dreams to come true? But I have nightmares (Lord)
¿Quieres que los sueños se hagan realidad? Pero tengo pesadillas (Señor)
'Cause if that come to life, then I might not be right here
Porque si eso se hace realidad, entonces es posible que no esté aquí
Been in the dark so long, don't know if the light here
He estado en la oscuridad tanto tiempo, no sé si la luz está aquí
But I'm just reaching for the stars like Buzz Lightyear (Jesus)
Pero solo estoy alcanzando las estrellas como Buzz Lightyear (Jesús)
And now I'm lightyears ahead of those nightmares (Lord)
Y ahora estoy años luz por delante de esas pesadillas (Señor)
I deaded those night terrors when the night clears
Acabé con esos terrores nocturnos cuando la noche se aclara
And if I talk to Christ, can I bring my mother back to life?
Y si hablo con Cristo, ¿puedo devolver a mi madre a la vida?
And if I die tonight, will I see her in the afterlife? (Jesus)
Y si muero esta noche, ¿la veré en la otra vida? (Jesús)
But back to reality, where everything's a tragedy (Lord)
Pero volvamos a la realidad, donde todo es una tragedia (Señor)
And you better have a strategy or you could be a statistic
Y es mejor que tengas una estrategia o podrías ser una estadística
Little boy dies, he's just one of the mystic
Pequeño niño muere, es solo uno de los místicos

Zuerst und vor allem
I wanna thank you for taking the fight for my father to the Oval Office
Ich möchte dir dafür danken, dass du den Kampf für meinen Vater ins Oval Office gebracht hast

Weißt du, für mich fühlt es sich irgendwie so an, als ob ich, meine Mutter, meine Brüder
And my kids have all been incarcerated through this journey
Und meine Kinder sind alle durch diese Reise eingesperrt worden
And we haven't even been to jail

All my life, man, I've been waitin' for my father to come home

Und sie konnten ihren Großvater nicht berühren
