Smile
Brad Jordan, James Samuel Harris III, Mike Dean, Terry Lewis, Tupac Amaru Shakur
There's gon' be some stuff you gon' see
That's gon' make it hard to smile in the future
But through whatever you see
Through all the rain and the pain
You gotta keep your sense of humor
You gotta be able to smile through all this bullshit
Remember that
(Mmh)
Mh, yeah
Mh, keep ya head up, yeah
Yeah (mmh)
Our lifestyles be close-captioned, addicted to fatal attractions
Pictures of actions be played back in the midst of mashin'
No fairy tales for this young black male
Some see me stranded in this land of hell, jail, and crack sales
Hustlers hardly think of culture
Or the repercussions while bustin' on backstabbin' vultures
Sellin' my soul for material wishes, fast cars, and bitches
Wishin' I live my life a legend, immortalized in pictures
Why shed tears? Save your sympathy
My childhood years were spent buryin' my peers in the cemetery
Here's a message to the newborns waitin' to breathe
If you believe, then you can achieve, just look at me
Against all odds, though life is hard we carry on
Livin' in the projects, broke with no lights on
To all the seeds that follow me, protect your essence
Born with less, but you still precious, just smile for me now
Smile for me, won't you smile? (Smile for me now)
Won't you just smile? For me? (Smile)
For me? (What you lookin' all sad for?)
(Nigga, you black, smile for me now) please smile for me
Smile for me (you ain't got nothin' to be worried about)
Could you smile? (No doubt, smile for me now)
Could you just smile? For me? (And the next generation)
Now, as I open up my story, with the blaze of your blunts
And you can picture thoughts slowly, up on phrases I wrote
And I can walk you through the days that I done
I often wish that I could save everyone, but I'm a dreamer
Have you ever seen a nigga who was strong in the game?
Overlookin' his tomorrows, and they finally came
Look back on childhood memories, and I'm still feelin' the pain
Turnin' circles in my nineth grade, dealin' cocaine
Too many hassles in my local life, survivin' the strain
And a man without a focus, life could drive him insane
Stuck inside a ghetto fantasy hopin' it change
But when I focus on reality we broke and in chains
Had a dream of livin' wealthy and makin' it big
Over football chose to cook raw, wouldn't take but I did
And after all my momma's thankin' God for blessin' the child
All my momma gots to do now is collect it and smile, smile
Smile for me, would you smile?
Would you just smile? Come on, (for me?) For me?
Fuck the world, as we elope and witness furious speeds
Unanswered questions keep us all stressin', curious G's
Backstabbed and bleedin'
Crooked thoughts laced with weed, learnin'
Duckin' stray shots, bullets be hot, they burnin'
Inhalin' sherm smoke, visualize the flames
Will I be smothered by my own pain?
Strange whispers, cowards conversate, so quick to diss us
Takin' pictures for the feds in desperate hopes they'd get us
Hit us off, give us plenty centuries
Forgive my sins, since I entered many penitentiaries
The best revenge is, "Fuck friends!", We military minded soldiers
Bustin' shots blindly, tryin' to find Jehovah
To help me, somebody save me, lost and crazy
Scared to drop a seed hopin' I ain't cursed my babies
Maybe now niggas feel me now, picture my pain
Embrace my words, make the world change
And still I smile, nigga
And now a moment of silence
Let us pray
And as you journey into outer space (smile for me)
May the angels help to lead the way (smile for me)
May the prayers that our families made (would you just smile?)
Shine up on your soul to keep you safe (for me?)
And all the homies that have passed away (smile for me)
They there to greet you as you pass the gates
And as you head to the tunnel's light (could you just smile?)
I hope it leads to eternal life (for me?)
We say the prayers for our homie 'Pac (smile for me)
Would you just smile? For me?
(Woah, smile for me) smile (smile for me)
Could you just smile? For me?
(La la, woah)
(Woo, oh smile for me, smile for me)
All you gotta do, all you need to do is smile for me
Woah-oh, smile for me
Come on, smile for me
There's gon' be some stuff you gon' see
Va a haber algunas cosas que vas a ver
That's gon' make it hard to smile in the future
Que harán difícil sonreír en el futuro
But through whatever you see
Pero a través de lo que sea que veas
Through all the rain and the pain
A través de toda la lluvia y el dolor
You gotta keep your sense of humor
Tienes que mantener tu sentido del humor
You gotta be able to smile through all this bullshit
Tienes que ser capaz de sonreír a través de toda esta mierda
Remember that
Recuerda eso

Mh, keep ya head up, yeah
Mh, mantén la cabeza alta, sí
Yeah (mmh)
Sí (mmh)
Our lifestyles be close-captioned, addicted to fatal attractions
Nuestros estilos de vida son subtitulados, adictos a las atracciones fatales
Pictures of actions be played back in the midst of mashin'

No fairy tales for this young black male
No hay cuentos de hadas para este joven negro
Some see me stranded in this land of hell, jail, and crack sales
Algunos me ven varado en esta tierra de infierno, cárcel y ventas de crack
Hustlers hardly think of culture
Los traficantes apenas piensan en la cultura
Or the repercussions while bustin' on backstabbin' vultures
O en las repercusiones mientras disparan a los buitres traidores
Sellin' my soul for material wishes, fast cars, and bitches
Vendiendo mi alma por deseos materiales, coches rápidos y mujeres
Wishin' I live my life a legend, immortalized in pictures
Deseando vivir mi vida como una leyenda, inmortalizado en fotos
Why shed tears? Save your sympathy

And you can picture thoughts slowly, up on phrases I wrote

I often wish that I could save everyone, but I'm a dreamer
A menudo deseo poder salvar a todos, pero soy un soñador
Have you ever seen a nigga who was strong in the game?

Look back on childhood memories, and I'm still feelin' the pain
Miro atrás a los recuerdos de la infancia, y todavía siento el dolor
Turnin' circles in my nineth grade, dealin' cocaine
Dando vueltas en mi noveno grado, vendiendo cocaína
Too many hassles in my local life, survivin' the strain
Demasiados problemas en mi vida local, sobreviviendo a la tensión
And a man without a focus, life could drive him insane
Y un hombre sin un enfoque, la vida podría volverlo loco
Stuck inside a ghetto fantasy hopin' it change
Atrapado en una fantasía de gueto esperando que cambie
But when I focus on reality we broke and in chains
Pero cuando me enfoco en la realidad estamos rotos y encadenados
Had a dream of livin' wealthy and makin' it big
Soñé con vivir rico y hacerlo grande
Over football chose to cook raw, wouldn't take but I did
Elegí cocinar crudo en lugar de jugar al fútbol, no lo tomaría pero lo hice
And after all my momma's thankin' God for blessin' the child
Y después de todo mi mamá agradece a Dios por bendecir al niño
All my momma gots to do now is collect it and smile, smile
Todo lo que mi mamá tiene que hacer ahora es recogerlo y sonreír, sonreír
Smile for me, would you smile?
Sonríe para mí, ¿sonreirías?
Would you just smile? Come on, (for me?) For me?
¿Sonreirías solo? Vamos, (¿para mí?) ¿Para mí?
Fuck the world, as we elope and witness furious speeds
Jódete el mundo, mientras huimos y presenciamos velocidades furiosas
Unanswered questions keep us all stressin', curious G's
Las preguntas sin respuesta nos mantienen a todos estresados, curiosos G's
Backstabbed and bleedin'
Apunala por la espalda y sangra
Crooked thoughts laced with weed, learnin'

Duckin' stray shots, bullets be hot, they burnin'
Esquivando disparos perdidos, las balas están calientes, están quemando
Inhalin' sherm smoke, visualize the flames
Inhalando humo de sherm, visualizo las llamas
Will I be smothered by my own pain?
¿Seré sofocado por mi propio dolor?
Strange whispers, cowards conversate, so quick to diss us
Extraños susurros, cobardes conversan, tan rápidos para despreciarnos
Takin' pictures for the feds in desperate hopes they'd get us
Tomando fotos para los federales con la desesperada esperanza de que nos atrapen
Hit us off, give us plenty centuries
Nos liquidan, nos dan muchas centurias
Forgive my sins, since I entered many penitentiaries
Perdona mis pecados, ya que he entrado en muchas penitenciarías
The best revenge is, "Fuck friends!", We military minded soldiers
La mejor venganza es, "¡Jódanse los amigos!", Somos soldados con mentalidad militar
Bustin' shots blindly, tryin' to find Jehovah

To help me, somebody save me, lost and crazy

Scared to drop a seed hopin' I ain't cursed my babies

Bilder von Aktionen werden inmitten des Gemetzels zurückgespielt
No fairy tales for this young black male
Keine Märchen für diesen jungen schwarzen Mann
Some see me stranded in this land of hell, jail, and crack sales
Einige sehen mich gestrandet in diesem Land der Hölle, Gefängnis und Crack-Verkäufe
Hustlers hardly think of culture
Hustler denken kaum an Kultur
Or the repercussions while bustin' on backstabbin' vultures
Oder die Konsequenzen beim Schießen auf hinterhältige Geier
Sellin' my soul for material wishes, fast cars, and bitches
Verkaufe meine Seele für materielle Wünsche, schnelle Autos und Frauen
Wishin' I live my life a legend, immortalized in pictures
Wünschte, ich lebe mein Leben als Legende, unsterblich in Bildern
Why shed tears? Save your sympathy
Warum Tränen vergießen? Spare dir dein Mitleid
My childhood years were spent buryin' my peers in the cemetery
Meine Kindheitsjahre verbrachte ich damit, meine Altersgenossen auf dem Friedhof zu begraben
Here's a message to the newborns waitin' to breathe
Hier ist eine Botschaft an die Neugeborenen, die darauf warten zu atmen
If you believe, then you can achieve, just look at me
Wenn du glaubst, dann kannst du erreichen, schau mich nur an
Against all odds, though life is hard we carry on
Trotz aller Widrigkeiten, obwohl das Leben hart ist, machen wir weiter
Livin' in the projects, broke with no lights on
Leben in den Projekten, pleite ohne Licht
To all the seeds that follow me, protect your essence
An alle Samen, die mir folgen, schützt euer Wesen
Born with less, but you still precious, just smile for me now
Mit weniger geboren, aber du bist immer noch kostbar, lächle jetzt nur für mich

And you can picture thoughts slowly, up on phrases I wrote

And I can walk you through the days that I done

I often wish that I could save everyone, but I'm a dreamer
Ich wünschte oft, ich könnte jeden retten, aber ich bin ein Träumer
Have you ever seen a nigga who was strong in the game?
Hast du jemals einen Nigga gesehen, der stark im Spiel war?
Overlookin' his tomorrows, and they finally came
Seine Zukünfte übersehen, und sie kamen schließlich
Look back on childhood memories, and I'm still feelin' the pain
Blicke zurück auf Kindheitserinnerungen, und ich fühle immer noch den Schmerz
Turnin' circles in my nineth grade, dealin' cocaine
Kreise drehen in meiner neunten Klasse, Kokain dealen
Too many hassles in my local life, survivin' the strain
Zu viele Probleme in meinem lokalen Leben, den Stress überleben
And a man without a focus, life could drive him insane
Und ein Mann ohne Fokus, das Leben könnte ihn in den Wahnsinn treiben
Stuck inside a ghetto fantasy hopin' it change
Gefangen in einer Ghetto-Fantasie in der Hoffnung, dass sie sich ändert
But when I focus on reality we broke and in chains
Aber wenn ich mich auf die Realität konzentriere, sind wir pleite und in Ketten
Had a dream of livin' wealthy and makin' it big
Hatte einen Traum vom reichen Leben und es groß zu machen
Over football chose to cook raw, wouldn't take but I did
Über Fußball entschied ich mich fürs Kochen, ich würde es nicht nehmen, aber ich tat es
And after all my momma's thankin' God for blessin' the child
Und nach all dem dankt meine Mutter Gott dafür, dass er das Kind gesegnet hat
All my momma gots to do now is collect it and smile, smile
Alles, was meine Mutter jetzt tun muss, ist es zu sammeln und zu lächeln, lächeln
Smile for me, would you smile?
Lächle für mich, würdest du lächeln?
Would you just smile? Come on, (for me?) For me?
Würdest du einfach lächeln? Komm schon, (für mich?) Für mich?

Will I be smothered by my own pain?
Werde ich von meinem eigenen Schmerz erstickt?
Strange whispers, cowards conversate, so quick to diss us
Seltsame Flüstereien, Feiglinge unterhalten sich, so schnell uns zu dissen
Takin' pictures for the feds in desperate hopes they'd get us
Machen Bilder für die Feds in verzweifelter Hoffnung, sie würden uns kriegen
Hit us off, give us plenty centuries
Schlagen uns ab, geben uns viele Jahrhunderte
Forgive my sins, since I entered many penitentiaries
Vergib meine Sünden, seit ich viele Gefängnisse betreten habe
The best revenge is, "Fuck friends!", We military minded soldiers
Die beste Rache ist, „Fick Freunde!“, Wir sind militärisch denkende Soldaten
Bustin' shots blindly, tryin' to find Jehovah

To help me, somebody save me, lost and crazy
Um mir zu helfen, jemand rette mich, verloren und verrückt
Scared to drop a seed hopin' I ain't cursed my babies
