Genius English Translations - Yasin Langt Hemifran English Translation Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Here they shoot without warning, you get no explanation
Damn, today I was at another funeral
Saying it's because of me they shoot is a joke
Man people had been carrying weapons before I got famous
But let them talk, just did my own thing
Smoke hash in the staircase, listen to Pac and Marvin Gaye
They place us at the far end of the subway line
Our moms have seen more death than the Kennedy family
Time is running out, we're getting fewer
No idеa to toughen the punishment, jail only makеs us worse
What you give is what you get
Out late in the night
Tried to put out the fires with weed and alcohol
No food in the refrigerator but I was still on top
Went to the youth center to kick football with Martin Mutumba
I learned on the street how you climb over obstacles
Watched TV but I didn't see any black idols
If you look up, little has changed
You were born in a country that was never your parents
I ask dad why life was so hard
He replied "My son, we're so far from home"
No one here wants to see you succeed so you better move in silence
Reading Aftonbladet, all I see is black-on-black violence
If it was possible to redo and do it right
But you can't make eggs out of a ready-made omelet
[Verse 2]
I'm a poor man from Rinkeby who never getting any rest
Court by my side must be something I've never had
I'm judged because I'm black and which god I believe on
What my people have gone through you can't put words on
Kids sell weed on the streetcorners, run from the cops
More police in the area hardly increase security
People are tired now, Magdalena acts dumb
We lived nine people in one apartment with three rooms
I have paranoia, on my foot I have a shackle
When I said I'm stuck you thought I was joking
Not the same but you don't understand anything
I'm running from a cop because I look like George Floyd and Rodney King
They hate what I write because it's true
Its always been easy for me to write what I feel
Never been afraid to confront the shoe where the shoe squeezes
Poverty here has fucked my family and friends
My reality and crime go hand in hand sometimes
Have been able to persevere but not always as strong sometimes
No one here is safe, it's good to carry a gun sometimes
He has taken an eye, afraid to take his tooth sometimes
Never thought the violence would affect the civilians
She was only twelve, way too soon may she rest
If it was possible to redo and do it right
But you can't make eggs out of a ready-made omelet
