Survival of the Fittest
Kejuan Waliek Muchita, Albert Johnson
Yeah
Sendin' this one out, to my man Killa B
No doubt indeed, without weed
Know what I'm sayin'?
That old real shit
There's a war goin' on outside no man is safe from
You could run but you can't hide forever
From these streets that we done took
You walkin' witcha head down scared to look
You shook 'cause ain't no such things as halfway crooks
They never around when the beef cooks in my part of town
It's similar to Vietnam
Now we all grown up and old, and beyond the cops' control
They better have the riot gear ready
Tryin' to bag me and get rocked steady
By the MAC one-double, I touch you
And leave you with not much to go home wit'
My skin is thick, 'cause I be up in the mix of action
If I'm not at home, puffin' la, relaxin'
New York got a nigga depressed
So I wear a slug-proof underneath my Guess
God bless my soul, before I put my foot down and begin to stroll
Into the drama I built, and all unfinished beef
You will soon be killed, put us together
It's like mixin' vodka and milk
I'm goin' out blastin', takin' my enemies with me
And if not, they scarred, so they will never forget me
Lord, forgive me the Hennessy got me not knowin' how to act
I'm fallin' and I can't turn back
Or maybe it's the words from my man Killa Black
That I can't say so it's left a untold fact, until my death
My goal's to stay alive
Survival of the fit only the strong survive
Yo, yo
We livin' this 'til the day that we die
Survival of the fit only the strong survive
(We still livin' it)
We livin' this 'til the day that we die
Survival of the fit only the strong survive
(Thug life, we still livin' it)
We livin' this 'til the day that we die
Survival of the fit only the strong survive
(We still livin' it)
We livin' this 'til the day that we die
(We livin' this 'til the day that we die)
Survival of the fit only the strong survive
(Survival of the fit only the strong)
I'm trapped, in between two worlds, tryna get dough
Ya know when the dough get low the jewels go, but never that
As long as fiends smoke crack
I'll be on the block hustlin', countin' my stacks
No doubt, watchin' my back and proceed with caution
Five-oh lurkin', no time to get lost in the system
Niggas usin' fake names to get out quick
My brother did it and got bagged with two ounces
I live a world where squads hit the block hard
Ask my man Twin when he got bagged, that fucked me up, God
But shit happens for a reason
You find out who's your true peoples when you're upstate bleedin'
You can't find a shorty to troop your bid witchu
Hit wit a two to four is difficult
Wild on the streets I try to maintain
Tight with my loot, 'cause hoes like to run game
Some niggas like to trick but I ain't wit that trickin' shit
I'm like a Jew, savin' dough so I can big whip
Pushin' a Lex, now I'm set, ready to jet
No matter how much loot I get I'm stayin' in the projects, forever
Jakes on the blocks we out-clever
If beef, we never separate and pull together
When worse comes to worse and my peoples come first
Try to react and get them motherfuckin' feelings hurt
My crew's all about loot
Fuck lookin' cute, I'm strictly Timb' boots and army certified suits
Puffin Ls, laid back, enjoyin' the smell
In the Bridge gettin' down it ain't hard to tell
You better realize
We livin' this 'til the day that we die
Survival of the fit only the strong survive
(We still livin' it)
We livin' this 'til the day that we die
Survival of the fit only the strong survive
(Thug life, we still livin' it)
We livin' this 'til the day that we die
Survival of the fit only the strong survive
(We still livin' it)
We livin' this 'til the day that we die
Survival of the fit only the strong survive
(Thug life, we still livin' it) (the strong survive)
Open your eyes and get wise
Look alive
In '95, word up
Hypnotic thug life
Get that ass paralyzed
Know what I'm sayin'?
Mobb Deep and all that
Yeah
Sí
Sendin' this one out, to my man Killa B
Enviando esta a mi hermano Killa B
No doubt indeed, without weed
Sin duda por supuesto, sin hierba
Know what I'm sayin'?
¿Entiendes lo que digo?
That old real shit
Esa vieja mierda real
There's a war goin' on outside no man is safe from
Hay una guerra sucediendo ahí afuera de la que ningún hombre está a salvo
You could run but you can't hide forever
Puedes correr pero no puedes esconderte por siempre
From these streets that we done took
De estas calles que hemos hecho tomaron
You walkin' witcha head down scared to look
Tú caminas con la cabeza abajo, con miedo de mirar
You shook 'cause ain't no such things as halfway crooks
Tú te alteras, porque no hay tal cosa como un cerdo a medias
They never around when the beef cooks in my part of town
Nunca están rondando cuando la carne se cocina en mi barrio
It's similar to Vietnam
Es similar a Vietnam
Now we all grown up and old, and beyond the cops' control
Ahora todos crecimos y estamos viejos, y más allá del control policial
They better have the riot gear ready
Será mejor que tengan su equipo de disturbios listo
Tryin' to bag me and get rocked steady
Intentan atraparme pero los dejamos quietos
By the MAC one-double, I touch you
Por el mac uno-doble, yo te toco
And leave you with not much to go home wit'
Y te dejo sin mucho con que volver a casa
My skin is thick, 'cause I be up in the mix of action
Mi piel es gruesa, porque he estado en la mezcla de la acción
If I'm not at home, puffin' la, relaxin'
Si no, estoy en casa, fumando hierba y relajandome
New York got a nigga depressed
Nueva York tiene a un negro deprimido
So I wear a slug-proof underneath my Guess
Así que yo me pongo un chaleco a prueba de pereza debajo de mi Guess
God bless my soul, before I put my foot down and begin to stroll
Dios bendiga mi alma, antes de que yo ponga mi pie en el suelo y empiece a caminar
Into the drama I built, and all unfinished beef
Y al drama que he construido, y todas las peleas sin terminar
You will soon be killed, put us together
Pronto vas a ser asesinado, ponos juntos
It's like mixin' vodka and milk
Es como cuando mezclas vodka con leche
I'm goin' out blastin', takin' my enemies with me
Voy a salir disparando, llevándome a mis enemigos conmigo
And if not, they scarred, so they will never forget me
Y si no, estan asustados, para que nunca me olviden
Lord, forgive me the Hennessy got me not knowin' how to act
Señor perdóname, el Hennessy hizo que no supiera cómo actuar
I'm fallin' and I can't turn back
Estoy cayendo y no puedo regresar
Or maybe it's the words from my man Killa Black
O tal vez son las palabras de mi hermano Killa Black
That I can't say so it's left a untold fact, until my death
Eso no lo puedo decir, así que quedará como un hecho sin contar, hasta mi muerte
My goal's to stay alive
Mi objetivo es permanecer con vida
Survival of the fit only the strong survive
Supervivencia del más apto, solo los fuertes sobreviven
Yo, yo
Yo, yo
We livin' this 'til the day that we die

I'm trapped, in between two worlds, tryna get dough
Estoy atrapado entre dos mundos, tratando de conseguir el dinero
Ya know when the dough get low the jewels go, but never that
Tú sabes cuando el dinero escasea, las joyas se van, pero nunca pasa
As long as fiends smoke crack
Siempre que los amigos fumen crack
I'll be on the block hustlin', countin' my stacks
Estaré en el barrio trabajando contando mis paquetes
No doubt, watchin' my back and proceed with caution
Sin duda, cuidándome la espalda y actuando con cuidado
Five-oh lurkin', no time to get lost in the system
Policías escondiéndose, no hay tiempo para perderse en el sistema
Niggas usin' fake names to get out quick
Negros usando nombres falsos para salir rápido
My brother did it and got bagged with two ounces
Mi hermano lo hizo y lo arrestaron con dos onzas
I live a world where squads hit the block hard
Mundo ilegal donde los equipos policiales le pegan fuerte al barrio
Ask my man Twin when he got bagged, that fucked me up, God
Preguntale a mi hombre Twin cuando lo arrestaron, eso me jodio, Dios
But shit happens for a reason
Pero las mierdas pasan por una razón
You find out who's your true peoples when you're upstate bleedin'
Encuentras realmente en quien confiar cuando estás desangrándote en el norte del estado
You can't find a shorty to troop your bid witchu
Tú no puedes encontrar una nena que te aguante la condena
Hit wit a two to four is difficult
De 2 a 4 años, es difícil
Wild on the streets I try to maintain
Es salvaje en las calles, yo intento mantenerme
Tight with my loot, 'cause hoes like to run game
Cerca de mi botín, porque a las perras les gusta manejar el negocio
Some niggas like to trick but I ain't wit that trickin' shit
A algunos negros les gusta engañar, pero yo no voy con esa mierda de trucos
I'm like a Jew, savin' dough so I can big whip
Soy como un judío, ahorrando dinero para poder hacer un gran robo
Pushin' a Lex, now I'm set, ready to jet
Teniendo un Lex, ahora estoy hecho, listo para el jet
No matter how much loot I get I'm stayin' in the projects, forever
No importa cuánto crezca mi botín me mantendré en los proyectos, por siempre
Jakes on the blocks we out-clever
Jackes está en los barrios, los superamos en inteligencia
If beef, we never separate and pull together
En la lucha, nunca nos separamos y nos mantenemos juntos
When worse comes to worse and my peoples come first
Cuando pasa lo peor, mi gente está primero
Try to react and get them motherfuckin' feelings hurt
Intentó reaccionar y lastimar sus jodidos sentimientos
My crew's all about loot
A mi grupo solo le interesa el botín
Fuck lookin' cute, I'm strictly Timb' boots and army certified suits
A la mierda verse bien, yo visto estrictamente botas Timb y vestidos militares certificados
Puffin Ls, laid back, enjoyin' the smell
Fumando L's, recostado, disfrutando el aroma
In the Bridge gettin' down it ain't hard to tell
En el puente bajando, no es difícil diferenciarlo
You better realize
Es mejor que te des cuenta
We livin' this 'til the day that we die
Estamos viviendo así el día de nuestra muerte
Survival of the fit only the strong survive
Supervivencia del más apto, solo los fuertes sobreviven

Look alive

Mandando essa, para o meu mano Killa B
No doubt indeed, without weed
Sem dúvida, sem maconha
Know what I'm sayin'?
Sabe o que eu estou dizendo?
That old real shit
Aquela velha e verdadeira merda
There's a war goin' on outside no man is safe from
Há uma guerra acontecendo lá fora, nenhum homem está seguro
You could run but you can't hide forever
Você pode correr, mas não pode se esconder para sempre
From these streets that we done took
Dessas ruas que tomamos
You walkin' witcha head down scared to look
Você anda com a cabeça baixa, com medo de olhar
You shook 'cause ain't no such things as halfway crooks
Você está assustado porque não existem coisas como bandidos pela metade
They never around when the beef cooks in my part of town
Eles nunca estão por perto quando a briga esquenta na minha parte da cidade
It's similar to Vietnam
É semelhante ao Vietnã
Now we all grown up and old, and beyond the cops' control
Agora todos nós crescemos e envelhecemos, e além do controle dos policiais
They better have the riot gear ready
Eles é melhor estarem prontos com o equipamento anti-motim
Tryin' to bag me and get rocked steady
Tentando me prender e levar uma surra constante
By the MAC one-double, I touch you
Pelo MAC um-duplo, eu te toco
And leave you with not much to go home wit'
E te deixo sem muito para voltar para casa
My skin is thick, 'cause I be up in the mix of action
Minha pele é grossa, porque eu estou sempre no meio da ação
If I'm not at home, puffin' la, relaxin'
Se eu não estou em casa, fumando um, relaxando
New York got a nigga depressed
Nova York me deixou deprimido
So I wear a slug-proof underneath my Guess
Então eu uso um colete à prova de balas por baixo do meu Guess
God bless my soul, before I put my foot down and begin to stroll
Deus abençoe minha alma, antes de eu dar o primeiro passo e começar a andar
Into the drama I built, and all unfinished beef
No drama que eu construí, e toda a briga não terminada
You will soon be killed, put us together
Você logo será morto, nos junte
It's like mixin' vodka and milk
É como misturar vodka e leite
I'm goin' out blastin', takin' my enemies with me
Eu vou sair atirando, levando meus inimigos comigo
And if not, they scarred, so they will never forget me
E se não, eles ficarão marcados, então nunca vão me esquecer
Lord, forgive me the Hennessy got me not knowin' how to act
Senhor, me perdoe, o Hennessy me deixou sem saber como agir
I'm fallin' and I can't turn back
Eu estou caindo e não consigo voltar
Or maybe it's the words from my man Killa Black
Ou talvez sejam as palavras do meu mano Killa Black
That I can't say so it's left a untold fact, until my death
Que eu não posso dizer, então fica um fato não contado, até a minha morte
My goal's to stay alive
Meu objetivo é permanecer vivo
Survival of the fit only the strong survive
A sobrevivência do mais apto, apenas os fortes sobrevivem
Yo, yo

I'm trapped, in between two worlds, tryna get dough
Estou preso, entre dois mundos, tentando conseguir dinheiro
Ya know when the dough get low the jewels go, but never that

As long as fiends smoke crack
Enquanto os viciados fumarem crack
I'll be on the block hustlin', countin' my stacks
Eu estarei na rua, contando minhas pilhas de dinheiro
No doubt, watchin' my back and proceed with caution
Sem dúvida, cuidando das minhas costas e procedendo com cautela

I live a world where squads hit the block hard
Eu vivo em um mundo onde os esquadrões atingem o quarteirão com força
Ask my man Twin when he got bagged, that fucked me up, God
Pergunte ao meu mano Twin quando ele foi preso, isso me fodeu, Deus
But shit happens for a reason
Mas as coisas acontecem por uma razão
You find out who's your true peoples when you're upstate bleedin'
Você descobre quem são seus verdadeiros amigos quando você está sangrando na prisão
You can't find a shorty to troop your bid witchu
Você não consegue encontrar uma garota para cumprir sua pena com você
Hit wit a two to four is difficult
Ser atingido com dois a quatro é difícil
Wild on the streets I try to maintain
Selvagem nas ruas, eu tento manter a calma
Tight with my loot, 'cause hoes like to run game
Cuidadoso com o meu dinheiro, porque as garotas gostam de jogar
Some niggas like to trick but I ain't wit that trickin' shit
Alguns caras gostam de gastar, mas eu não estou nessa de gastar dinheiro
I'm like a Jew, savin' dough so I can big whip
Eu sou como um judeu, economizando dinheiro para poder comprar um carro grande
Pushin' a Lex, now I'm set, ready to jet
Empurrando um Lex, agora estou pronto, pronto para decolar
No matter how much loot I get I'm stayin' in the projects, forever
Não importa quanto dinheiro eu consiga, vou ficar nos projetos, para sempre
Jakes on the blocks we out-clever
Os policiais nos quarteirões, nós somos mais espertos
If beef, we never separate and pull together
Se tiver briga, nunca nos separamos e nos unimos
When worse comes to worse and my peoples come first
Quando a situação piora e meus amigos vêm em primeiro lugar
Try to react and get them motherfuckin' feelings hurt
Tente reagir e machuque seus malditos sentimentos
My crew's all about loot
Minha equipe é toda sobre dinheiro
Fuck lookin' cute, I'm strictly Timb' boots and army certified suits
Foda-se parecer bonito, eu sou estritamente botas Timb e ternos certificados pelo exército
Puffin Ls, laid back, enjoyin' the smell
Fumando baseados, relaxado, curtindo o cheiro
In the Bridge gettin' down it ain't hard to tell
Na ponte se divertindo, não é difícil de perceber
You better realize
É melhor você perceber
We livin' this 'til the day that we die
Nós vivemos isso até o dia que morremos

Ce bon vieux truc
There's a war goin' on outside no man is safe from
Il y a une guerre qui se déclenche à l'extérieur, personne est en sécurité
You could run but you can't hide forever
T'as beau courir mais tu peux pas te cacher toujours
From these streets that we done took
De ces rues qu'on a pris pour nous
You walkin' witcha head down scared to look
Tu marches avec la tête baissée, t'as trop peur de regarder
You shook 'cause ain't no such things as halfway crooks
T'as la trouille parce que les bandits à 50%, ça n'existe pas
They never around when the beef cooks in my part of town
Ils ne sont jamais là quand les beefs deviennent chauds dans mes quartiers
It's similar to Vietnam
C'est pas mal pareil au Vietnam
Now we all grown up and old, and beyond the cops' control
Là on a tous grandi, on est plus vieux, hors du contrôle des keufs
They better have the riot gear ready
Ils ont intérêt à avoir leurs uniformes de contrôle d'émeute
Tryin' to bag me and get rocked steady
Ils essayent de me coincer et ils se font secouer pas mal
By the MAC one-double, I touch you
C'est avec le MAC double-1 que je t'atteins
And leave you with not much to go home wit'
Et j'te laisse avec pas trop trop pour rentrer chez toi
My skin is thick, 'cause I be up in the mix of action
Ma peau est épaisse, parce que j'suis en plein milieu de cette action
If I'm not at home, puffin' la, relaxin'
Si je ne suis pas à la maison, fumant ma zeb, tout relax
New York got a nigga depressed
La ville de New York déprime ce négro
So I wear a slug-proof underneath my Guess
Donc je porte un gilet pare-balles en-dessous de mes sapes Guess
God bless my soul, before I put my foot down and begin to stroll
Que Dieu bénisse mon âme, avant que je pose le pieds et commence à marcher
Into the drama I built, and all unfinished beef
Dans le drame que j'ai bâti, et tout le beef qu'on n'a pas réglé
You will soon be killed, put us together
Tu seras bientôt buté, ça nous rassemblera
It's like mixin' vodka and milk
C'est comme mélanger du lait et de la vodka
I'm goin' out blastin', takin' my enemies with me
Je quitterai ce monde en fusillant, je prends mes ennemis avec moi
And if not, they scarred, so they will never forget me
Et si c'est pas le cas, ils seront cicatrisés, ils ne m'oublieront pas
Lord, forgive me the Hennessy got me not knowin' how to act
Seigneur, pardonne-moi, après le Hennessy, je sais plus comment me comporter
I'm fallin' and I can't turn back
Je tombe et je ne peux pas me retourner
Or maybe it's the words from my man Killa Black
Ou bien peut-être que ce sont les paroles de mon reuf Killa Black
That I can't say so it's left a untold fact, until my death
Que je ne peux pas dire, donc c'est un fait inconnu qu'on laisse jusqu'à ma mort
My goal's to stay alive
Mon but, c'est de survivre
Survival of the fit only the strong survive
La survie des mecs en santé, y que les forts qui survivront

I live a world where squads hit the block hard
Je vis dans un monde où les patrouilles frappent le bloc fort
Ask my man Twin when he got bagged, that fucked me up, God
Demande à mon mec Twin quand il s'est fait coincer, mon Dieu, ça m'a vraiment affecté
But shit happens for a reason
Mais ces trucs se passent pour une raison
You find out who's your true peoples when you're upstate bleedin'
Tu apprends qui sont tes vrais amis quand tu saignes dans une cellule
You can't find a shorty to troop your bid witchu
Tu ne peux pas trouver une nana pour t'attendre jusqu'à la fin de ta peine
Hit wit a two to four is difficult
Quand on chope une peine de deux à quatre, c'est difficile
Wild on the streets I try to maintain
Sauvage dans les rues, j'essaye de maintenir
Tight with my loot, 'cause hoes like to run game
Je fais attention avec mon butin, parce que les putes aiment jouer des tours
Some niggas like to trick but I ain't wit that trickin' shit
Y a des négros qui essayent de m'avoir mais moi, on ne m'aura pas
I'm like a Jew, savin' dough so I can big whip
J'suis comme un juif, j'économise mon fric afin de pouvoir acheter une grosse bagnole
Pushin' a Lex, now I'm set, ready to jet
Je pousse une Lexus, là j'suis prêt, prêt à décoller
No matter how much loot I get I'm stayin' in the projects, forever
Peu importe combien de butin j'accumule, je resterai toujours au tieks
Jakes on the blocks we out-clever
On est trop futés pour les keufs dans ces rues
If beef, we never separate and pull together
Si y a du beef, on se sépare jamais, on reste soudés
When worse comes to worse and my peoples come first
Quand le pire arrive, c'est mon peuple avant tout
Try to react and get them motherfuckin' feelings hurt
On essaye de réagir et leurs putains de sentiments sont blessés pas mal vite
My crew's all about loot
Mon crew ne pense qu'à la maille

I'm goin' out blastin', takin' my enemies with me

Lord, forgive me the Hennessy got me not knowin' how to act
