Текст песни Beautiful Life (Nas) с переводом

Peace y’all, yeah

This one right here goes to my most loyal, loyal, loyal, loyal ones

You for me and me for you

We see things alike

We live alike, in truth

The craziest things already happened, get me

Could tell you 'gon be laughing at me or you laughing with me?

My baby’s mom made a book about me, she tried to out me

In Barnes & Nobles new release section she’s confessin'

Now the streets guessin' the beefin' started over some woman

Couldn’t be the furthest thing from the truth

Was she looking for fame? yo I hope she got it

Since then I been the object, gossip people tried to target

All women should bid

For keeping real fathers away from their kids

These rappers talkin' real shit I lived

How many been married, divorced, their ex lady wildin'

Hires a lawyer, judge awards 'em monthly eighty thousand

Stevie Wonder sent me word that he was in my corner

Blind but still sees the pain of a young performer

Used to be my rib thought it was 'til death do us

She married again and I’m wishin' all the best to her

Got me looking for my mother, all I see is suckers

She lookin' over me now sayin' don’t trust 'em

Come on I’m livin', I don’t need many to pray for me

Her bad, she wanna keep the kids away from their dad

Tell you lames something, spit some game

Planes carry me to Madrid, Spain, so why complain?

When you place blame, then you’re defective

When you take blame, then you’re respected

You gotta give me credit

Woah

Life is good, I must admit it

Woah

Ups and downs, we’ve all been through it

Woah

Ain’t no other way to do it

Woah

Life is good, it’s good, it’s good

Uh

The craziest things just happened to me, get me

So now whatever happens next it probably won’t affect me

How many people owe the feds, keep it real especially

If you an artist in this music game, the smartest ones get abused for their

change

And my life is sex, super stardom, and stupid cash

So unpredictable not aware you could lose it fast

I signed my own checks, swore we paid the IRS

Somebody’s stealin', I swear to God

Tsk, for now, I invest

To my incarcerated team who got life

It’s not right but you still got your life

Rest in peace to Gil Scott from the kill or be killed blocks

Not from Philly but a nigga done hustled them hilltops

Commercial pop artists get all the accolades

I give a million cash away to be revered like Donny Hathaway

Probably not as half as paid as I should be

But I stay in some cars and stay in some pussy

It’s a beautiful life

Beautiful life, beautiful life

Woah

Life is good, I must admit it (Yeah)

Woah (Beautiful life)

Ups and downs, we’ve all been through it

Woah (Life's still good)

Ain’t no other way to do it

Woah (Yeah, yeah)

Life is good, it’s good, it’s good

A thin line from this gangsta life and rap stuff

I can say I never been punked, robbed, or smacked up

Proud to say I never been chased, jumped, or backed up

Or extorted for my pay stubs

Lucky or blessed from what prayer does

'Cause hey, I was riding in caravans with AK’s and gloves inside 'em

And if I should spare that man who violated my trust

I gave him a pass

My man called and I value his judgement

I let it ride and thought no more of it, it’s over

So if it’s my turn to be on the other side of the gun

I’m granted my four leaf clover, no one’s leaving me colder

'Cause I chilled and let you breathe, yes

Let’s go our own ways and let the beef digress

I done seen insanity close up, schizophrenia shows up in most us

My younger brother knows this

Not Jungle, got another brother in PA

Spazzed on' em, hurt me to put hands on 'em 'til this day

I gotta say I got some fam across the USA

Cackalack to Kansas but my mans around the way had contacts

They was Spanish coppin' grams and cooking 'ye

Willie, Bo, blowing haze, Mayo next door

Joe, Martin, Slade, I’m solo these days

It wasn’t my fault

I never knew the time of death and maturity would sever my crew up in New York

Barely survived

Large, I thank you for teaching me not to pop my letter P’s in the booth

How to control my vocals and spit poetically smooth

Akinyele, you knew

I was your brother 'til death

Back when you put me on to NiQuay from Lefrak

You was a dime, we was nobodies

Say what’s up to Shameek, send my love to Yadi

I pray we all get old if I never again go gold and sell tickets

We could all still kick it

It’s a beautiful life

Beautiful life, beautiful life

Rest in peace to my brother Talik

Gone too soon

God bless your soul brother

He was wild

Some things we just can’t explain

Life

It’s messed up how much time get wasted that you can’t get back

With your kids at an early age

First steps, first words

I can’t see 'em cause you mad

Don’t put yourself before the babies

Don’t say crazy things to hurt that man

You hurt him enough

The good times outweighed the bad

When it was good, it was great

But because I could see him now through the courts, you mad

Okay that’s how it is out here

That’s life huh

You see we can’t be selfish out here

We gotta live and let love

Let the light in

To the beautiful mothers of my kids

And all the mothers around the world

Knight, Destiny

Life is good
