Текст песни Do Better (Von Poe VII) с переводом

Say that one more time, Grandma

«It's not important what other people think of you. It’s what you think of you,

Chad. And you came from the best, the best» — Grandma Poe

Ayo them angels in the outfield

Keep a distance

It was never seen in my hood

Brenda was poppin babies

Like every weekend

Shorty’s barely fifteen

On the block with the pick up

Fuck the bacon and the swine

They’ll shoot it out for the stick up

Ptown killas

The type to emancipate their incarceration

They’re going straight to jail

When eighteen hits

And their pleading the fifth

It’s kind of funny in the long run, right?

You sell that poison but be mad at a snitch

Now what’s the point of this?

Got love for your hood

But not for your people

Oh, you solid as stone?

Well homie you’re see through

See I’ve been there

And I’ve done that

You niggas brag about what?

Peddles in the dust

And when you die, ain’t worth a buck

My nigga

They want to see us do better

They want to see us doing better

Locked inside the brain

Could never take away the pain (2x)

We just pebbles in your window

Bullets through your temple

I am not your equal, nigga

I am not your equal

You are not my equal

I am not your equal, nigga

«I'm experienced now, professional. Jaws been broke, been knocked down a couple

of times, I’m bad! Been chopping trees. I done did something new for this fight.

I done wrestled with an alligator. That’s right. I have wrestled with an

alligator. I done tussled with a whale. I done handcuffed lightning,

thrown thunder in jail.» — Muhammad Ali

I was just that token with a destiny

Never had a child though

That was probably for my peoples

I just want you to be proud of me

Did I do my best?

Do you respect my efforts?

Am I appreciated?

Is this love forever, dawg?

Cause I’ve been living up in a box

So many homies have disappointed

I threw a lock up on the lock

And now they’re wanting to reconnect with me

My focus is Papa J. in all honesty

We ain’t really been a group

Since back in the day

They want to see us do better

They want to see us doing better

Locked inside the brain

Could never take away the pain (3x)

We just pebbles in your window

Bullets through your temple

I am not your equal, nigga

I am not your equal

You are not my equal

I am not your equal, nigga
