Tatsache ist, ich werde gleich auf dieser Konvention sprechen
Call you back
Ich rufe dich zurück
Alright kids we're gonna talk about gun control
Okay Kinder, wir werden über Waffenkontrolle sprechen
(Pray for me) Damn
(Bete für mich) Verdammt
It's not a place
Es ist kein Ort
This country is to be a sound of drum and bass
Dieses Land soll ein Klang von Trommel und Bass sein
You close your eyes to look around
Du schließt deine Augen, um dich umzusehen
Hail Mary, Jesus and Joseph
Gegrüßet seist du Maria, Jesus und Joseph

Aber ist Amerika ehrlich oder schwelgen wir in Sünde?
Pass the gin, I mix it with American blood
Reich den Gin, ich mische ihn mit amerikanischem Blut
Then bash him in, you crippin' or you married to blood?
Dann schlage ich ihn ein, bist du gelähmt oder bist du mit Blut verheiratet?
I'll ask again—oops—accident
Ich frage noch einmal - ups - Unfall
It's nasty when you set us up
Es ist widerlich, wenn du uns aufstellst
Then roll the dice, then bet us up
Dann würfelst du und wettest auf uns
You overnight the big rifles, then tell Fox to be scared of us
Du schickst über Nacht die großen Gewehre, dann sagst du Fox, er solle Angst vor uns haben
Gang members or terrorists, et cetera, et cetera
Gangmitglieder oder Terroristen, und so weiter, und so weiter
Americas reflections of me
Amerikas Spiegelbild von mir
That's what a mirror does
Das ist es, was ein Spiegel tut
It's not a place
Es ist kein Ort
This country is to be a sound of drum and bass
Dieses Land soll ein Klang von Trommel und Bass sein
You close your eyes to look ar—
Du schließt deine Augen, um zu schauen.
America, God bless you if it's good to you
America, Dio ti benedica se ti fa bene
America please take my hand
America per favore prendi la mia mano

Throw a steak off the yacht
Lancia una bistecca dallo yacht
To a pool full of sharks, he'll take it
A una piscina piena di squali, lui la prenderà
Leave him in the wilderness
Lascialo nella selvaggia
With a sworn nemesis, he'll make it
Con un nemico giurato, ce la farà
Take the gratitude from him
Prendi la gratitudine da lui
I bet he'll show you something, woah
Scommetto che ti mostrerà qualcosa, woah

Ieri ho ricevuto una chiamata come dal mio cane come 101
Said they killed his only son because of insufficient funds
Hanno detto che hanno ucciso suo figlio unico a causa di fondi insufficienti
He was sobbin', he was mobbin', way belligerent and drunk
Stava singhiozzando, stava mobbando, in modo bellicoso e ubriaco
Talkin' out his head philosphin' on what the lord had done
Parlando fuori dalla sua testa filosofando su ciò che il Signore aveva fatto
He said, "K-Dot can you pray for me?
Ha detto, "K-Dot puoi pregare per me?

Ain't no black power when your baby killed by a coward
Non c'è potere nero quando il tuo bambino viene ucciso da un codardo
I can't even keep the peace, don't you fuck with one of ours
Non riesco nemmeno a mantenere la pace, non ti mettere con uno dei nostri
It be murder in the street, it be bodies in the hour
Sarà un omicidio per strada, ci saranno corpi nell'ora
Ghetto bird on the street, paramedics on the dial
Uccello del ghetto per strada, paramedici in chiamata

Yeni Kung Fu Kenny
[Verse 1]
Köpek balıklarıyla dolu havuza
Biftekten yapılmış duba at, onu yakalar
İntikama yeminli bir halde
Çölün ortasına bırak, o başarır
Ondan şükranlarını al
Eminim sana bir şeyler gösterir, whoa
Bir hiç uğruna zencinin tekini öldürürüm
Bir hiç uğruna zencinin tekini öldürürüm
Bir hiç uğruna zencinin tekini öldürürüm
Zencinin tekini öldürüp silahı üstüne atar
Kendi başıma mahkemeye çıkar, “Sürtük, onu ben yaptım!” derim. X-rated
Johnny artık okula gitmek istemiyor; artık istemiyor
Johnny kitapların artık havalı olmadıklarını söyledi(söyledi)
Johnny, büyük kuzeni gibi bir rapçi olmak istiyor
Johnny dışarda takılırken bir ceset buldu
Tanrı Amerika’yı kutsasın, biliyorsunuz onu hepimiz seviyoruz
[Verse 2]
Dün 1:01 sularında arkadaşımdan telefon geldi
Onun biricik oğlunu parası olmadığı için öldürdüklerini söyledi
Hıçkıra hıçkıra ağlıyordu, adam topluyordu; kavgacı bir tavrı vardı ve sarhoştu
Akılsızca konuşuyordu, Tanrı’nın yaptığı hakkında felsefe yapıyordu
Şunu söyledi: “K-Dot, benim için dua eder misin?
Benim için çok sikik bir gün oldu
Senin kutsanmış olduğunu biliyorum, üstesinden nasıl geleceğimi göster.”
Buna son vermenin bir yolunu arıyordu
Onu ruhsal yola getirmemi umuyordu
Benim ruhum daha iyi biliyor, ama ona şunu söyledim:
“Senin için cevabı süsleyemem, hissettiklerim şöyle:
Eğer birisi oğlumu öldürürse, birisi öldürülecek demektir.”
Söylesene dokunamadığın onca hatıranın, anının aşkı, sadakati ve tutkusu
Uğruna ne yaparsın
Zencinin olduğu yerin önünde bekleyip mahallesine girmesini beklerim
Zenciyi kiliseden ayrılırken yakalarım, eğer yapabileceğim tek şey buysa
Zenciyi öldürüp silahı üstüne atar
Kendi başıma mahkemeye yürür ve şunu söylerim, “Sürtük, bunu ben yaptım!”
Bebeğin bir korkak tarafından öldürüldüğünde Siyahi Güç diye bir şey yoktur
Barışı bile koruyamıyorum, bizimkilerden birine bulaşmasan iyi olur
Yoksa sokakta bir cinayet olur, ceset olur
Getto kuşu sokaklarda, sağlıkçılar hatta olur
Sıkıyorsa birisi anneme
Kız kardeşime, kadınıma
Babama, kız yeğenime
Yeğenime, erkek kardeşime dokunsun
Zenciyi öldürüp üstüne silahı atmalısın
Aslına bakarsan, bir toplantıda konuşma yapmak üzereyim
Seni ararım--
[Geçiş]
Tamamdır çocuklar, şimdi sizinle silahların nasıl kontrol edildiği hakkında konuşacağız
(Benim için dua et) Lanet olsun!
[Nakarat: Bono]
Yeri değil
Bu ülke benim için davul ve bass'ın sesi gibi
Etrafına bakmak için gözlerini kapat
[Verse 3]
Meryem, İsa ve Yusuf
Muhteşem Amerika bayrağı patlayıcılara sarıldı ve sürüklendi
Zorlayıcı kargaşa, oğullar ve kızlar
Binalara ve sınırlara barikat kurdu
Bize öğrettiklerine bir bak!
Sokağımda, sokağında, arka sokaklarda cinayet var
Wall Street, şirket ofisleri
Bankalar, çalışanlar ve patronlar
İntiharı düşünüyor; Donald Trump ofisinde
Barack’ı kaybettik ve ondan bir daha asla şüphelenmeyeceğimize söz verdik
Amerika dürüst mü, yoksa biz günahlardan zevk mi alıyoruz?
Gin’i uzat, onu Amerikan kanıyla karıştırırım
Daha sonra ona sert bir vuruş atarım, yasadışı işler mi yapıyorsun yoksa kanla mı evlisin?
Tekrar soruyorum--oops--kazara oldu
Bizi tuzağa düşürmen edepsiz bir davranış
Daha sonra zarı atıp, bizi yenmen
Büyük silahların kaçakçılığını yapıyorsun
Daha sonra Fox’a bizden, çete üyelerinden, teröristlerden ve benzeri şeylerden korkmasını söylüyorsun
Bu Amerika’nın üzerimdeki yansıması, bir aynanın yaptığı gibi
[Nakarat: Bono]
Yeri değil
Bu ülke benim için davul ve bass'ın sesi gibi
Etrafına bakmak için gözlerini kapat
