I Ain't No Joke

Eric Barrier, William Griffin

Lyrics Translation

I ain't no joke, I used to let the mic smoke
Now I slam it when I'm done and make sure it's broke
When I'm gone no one gets on 'cause I won't let
Nobody press up and mess up the scene I set
I like to stand in a crowd and watch the people wonder, damn
But think about it then you'll understand
I'm just an addict addicted to music
Maybe it's a habit, I gotta use it
Even if it's jazz or the quiet storm
I hook a beat up, convert it into hip-hop form
Write a rhyme in graffiti in every show you see me in
Deep concentration 'cause I'm no comedian
Jokers are wild, if you wanna be tame
I treat you like a child then you're gonna be named
Another enemy, not even a friend of me
'Cause you'll get fried in the end when you pretend to be
Competin' 'cause I just put your mind on pause
And I can beat you when you compare my rhyme wit' yours
I wake you up and as I stare in your face you seem stunned
Remember me? The one you got your idea from?
But soon you start to suffer, the tune'll get rougher
When you start to stutter that's when you had enough of
Bitin' it'll make you choke, you can't provoke
You can't cope, you should of broke because I ain't no joke

I got a question as serious as cancer
Who can keep the average dancer?
Hyper as a heart attack, nobody smilin'
'Cause you're expressin' the rhyme that I'm stylin'
This is what we all sit down to write
You can't make it so you take it home, break it and bite
Use pieces and bits of all the hip-hop hits
Get the style down pack then it's time to switch
Put my tape on pause and add some more to yours
Then you figure you're ready for the neighborhood chores
The E-M-C-E-E, don't even try to be
When you come up to speak, don't even lie to me
You like to exaggerate, dream and imaginate
Then change the rhyme around, that can aggravate me
So when you see me come up, freeze
Or you'll be one of those seven emcees
They think that I'm a new jack but only if they knew that
They who think wrong are they who can't do that
Style that I'm doin', they might ruin
Patterns of paragraphs based on you and
Your offbeat DJ, if anything he play
Sound familiar, I'll wait 'til E say, "Play 'em"
So I'ma have to diss and broke
You could get a smack for this, I ain't no joke

I hold the microphone like a grudge
B'll hold the record so the needle don't budge
I hold a conversation cause when I invent
I nominated my DJ for president
When I emcee I'll keep a freestyle goin' steadily
So pucker up and whistle my melody
But whatever you do, don't miss one
They'll be another rough rhyme after this one
Before you know it, you're followin' and fiendin'
Waitin' for the punchline to get the meanin'
Like before the moral of my story I'm tellin'
Nobody beats the R, so stop yellin'
Save it, put it in your pocket for later
'Cause I'm movin' the crowd and B'll wreck the fader
No interruptions 'til the mic is broke
When I'm gone, then you can joke
'Cause everything is real on a serious tip
Keep playin' and I get furious quick
And I'll take you for a walk through hell
Feed your dome, then watch your eyeballs swell
Guide you out of triple-stage darkness
When it get dark again, then I'ma spark this microphone
'Cause the heat is on
You see smoke and I'm finished when the beat is gone
I'm no joke

I ain't no joke, I used to let the mic smoke
Eu não sou brincadeira, eu costumava deixar o microfone fumegar
Now I slam it when I'm done and make sure it's broke
Agora eu o bato quando termino e me certifico de que está quebrado
When I'm gone no one gets on 'cause I won't let
Quando eu me vou, ninguém sobe porque eu não deixo
Nobody press up and mess up the scene I set
Ninguém pressionar e bagunçar a cena que eu criei
I like to stand in a crowd and watch the people wonder, damn
Eu gosto de ficar em uma multidão e ver as pessoas se perguntarem, caramba
But think about it then you'll understand
Mas pense sobre isso e você entenderá
I'm just an addict addicted to music
Eu sou apenas um viciado viciado em música
Maybe it's a habit, I gotta use it
Talvez seja um hábito, eu tenho que usá-lo
Even if it's jazz or the quiet storm
Mesmo que seja jazz ou a tempestade silenciosa
I hook a beat up, convert it into hip-hop form
Eu engancho uma batida, a converto em forma de hip-hop
Write a rhyme in graffiti in every show you see me in
Escrevo uma rima em grafite em cada show que você me vê
Deep concentration 'cause I'm no comedian
Concentração profunda porque eu não sou comediante
Jokers are wild, if you wanna be tame
Os coringas são selvagens, se você quer ser domesticado
I treat you like a child then you're gonna be named
Eu te trato como uma criança, então você vai ser nomeado
Another enemy, not even a friend of me
Outro inimigo, nem mesmo um amigo meu
'Cause you'll get fried in the end when you pretend to be
Porque você vai ser frito no final quando você finge ser
Competin' 'cause I just put your mind on pause
Competindo porque eu acabei de colocar sua mente em pausa
And I can beat you when you compare my rhyme wit' yours
E eu posso te vencer quando você compara minha rima com a sua
I wake you up and as I stare in your face you seem stunned
Eu te acordo e enquanto eu olho em seu rosto você parece atordoado
Remember me? The one you got your idea from?
Lembra de mim? Aquele de quem você tirou sua ideia?
But soon you start to suffer, the tune'll get rougher
Mas logo você começa a sofrer, a melodia fica mais difícil
When you start to stutter that's when you had enough of
Quando você começa a gaguejar é quando você já teve o suficiente de
Bitin' it'll make you choke, you can't provoke
Morder vai te fazer engasgar, você não pode provocar
You can't cope, you should of broke because I ain't no joke
Você não pode lidar, você deveria ter quebrado porque eu não sou brincadeira
I got a question as serious as cancer
Eu tenho uma pergunta tão séria quanto o câncer
Who can keep the average dancer?
Quem pode manter o dançarino médio?
Hyper as a heart attack, nobody smilin'
Hiper como um ataque cardíaco, ninguém sorrindo
'Cause you're expressin' the rhyme that I'm stylin'
Porque você está expressando a rima que eu estou estilizando
This is what we all sit down to write
Isso é o que todos nós sentamos para escrever
You can't make it so you take it home, break it and bite
Você não consegue, então você leva para casa, quebra e morde
Use pieces and bits of all the hip-hop hits
Use pedaços e bits de todos os sucessos do hip-hop
Get the style down pack then it's time to switch
Pegue o estilo e então é hora de mudar
Put my tape on pause and add some more to yours
Coloque minha fita em pausa e adicione mais à sua
Then you figure you're ready for the neighborhood chores
Então você acha que está pronto para as tarefas do bairro
The E-M-C-E-E, don't even try to be
O E-M-C-E-E, nem tente ser
When you come up to speak, don't even lie to me
Quando você vem falar, nem me minta
You like to exaggerate, dream and imaginate
Você gosta de exagerar, sonhar e imaginar
Then change the rhyme around, that can aggravate me
Então mude a rima, isso pode me irritar
So when you see me come up, freeze
Então quando você me vê chegando, congele

Ou você será um daqueles sete MCs
They think that I'm a new jack but only if they knew that
