I Wonder if Heaven Got a Ghetto
LARRY D. GOODMAN, DERRICK MCDOWELL, TUPAC AMARU SHAKUR, LARRY TROUTMAN, ROGER TROUTMAN
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
I was raised, the little young nigga doin' bad shit
Talk much shit, 'cause I never had shit
I could remember being whupped in class
And if I didn't pass, mama whupped my ass
Was it my fault, papa didn't plan it out
Broke out left me to be the man of the house
I couldn't take it, had to make a profit
Down the block, got a glock and I clock grips
Makin' G's was my mission
Movin' enough of this shit to get my mama out the kitchen
And why must I sock a fella,
Just to live large like Rockefeller
First you didn't give a fuck but you're learnin' now
If you don't respect the town then we'll burn you down
God damn it's a motherfuckin' riot
Black people only hate police so don't try it
If you're not from the town then don't pass through
'Cause some O.G. fools might blast you
It ain't right but it's long overdue
We can't have peace till the niggas get a piece too
I want G's so you label me a criminal
And if I die, I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
Here on Earth, tell me what's a black life worth
A bottle of juice is no excuse, the truth hurts
And even when you take the shit
Move counties, get a lawyer, you can shake the shit
Ask Rodney, LaTasha, and many more
It's been goin' on for years, there's plenty more
When they ask me, when will the violence cease?
When your troops stop shootin' niggas down in the street
Niggas had enough time to make a difference
Bear witness, own our own business
Word to God, 'cause it's hard tryin' to make ends meet
First we couldn't afford shit now everything's free so we loot,
Please don't shoot when you see
I'm takin' from them 'cause for years they would take it from me
Now the tables have turned around
You didn't listen, until the niggas burned it down
And now Bush can't stop the hit
I predicted the shit, in 2Pacalypse
And for once I was down with niggas, felt good
In the hood bein' around the niggas, yeah
And for the first time everybody let go
And the streets was death row
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
I see no changes, all I see is racist faces
Misplaced hate makes disgrace to races
We under, I wonder what it take to make this
One better place, let's erase the wait state
Take the evil out the people, they'll be acting right
'Cause both black and white are smokin' crack tonight
And only time we deal is when we kill each other
It takes skill to be real, time to heal each other
And though it seems Heaven-sent
We ain't ready to have a black President, huh
It ain't a secret don't conceal the fact
The penitentiary's packed and it's filled with blacks
I wake up in the morning and I ask myself
Is life worth living, should I blast myself
I'm tired of being poor and even worse I'm black
My stomach hurts so I'm lookin' for a purse to snatch
Cops give a damn about a negro
Pull a trigger, kill a nigga*, he's a hero
Mo' nigga, mo' nigga, mo' niggas
I'd rather be dead than a po' nigga
Let the Lord judge the criminals
If I die, I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
And I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
Just think, if niggas decide to retaliate
Soldier in the house, I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
Ich frage mich, ob der Himmel ein Ghetto hat
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
Ich frage mich, ob der Himmel ein Ghetto hat
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
Ich frage mich, ob der Himmel ein Ghetto hat
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
Ich frage mich, ob der Himmel ein Ghetto hat
I was raised, the little young nigga doin' bad shit
Ich wurde erzogen, der kleine junge Neger, der schlechte Dinge tat
Talk much shit, 'cause I never had shit
Rede viel Scheiße, weil ich nie etwas hatte
I could remember being whupped in class
Ich kann mich daran erinnern, in der Klasse verprügelt zu werden
And if I didn't pass, mama whupped my ass
Und wenn ich nicht bestand, verprügelte Mama meinen Arsch
Was it my fault, papa didn't plan it out
War es meine Schuld, Papa hat es nicht geplant
Broke out left me to be the man of the house
Brach aus, ließ mich das Haus führen
I couldn't take it, had to make a profit
Ich konnte es nicht ertragen, musste Profit machen
Down the block, got a glock and I clock grips
Die Straße runter, bekam eine Glock und ich mache Geschäfte
Makin' G's was my mission
G's zu machen war meine Mission
Movin' enough of this shit to get my mama out the kitchen
Genug von diesem Zeug bewegen, um meine Mama aus der Küche zu bekommen
And why must I sock a fella,
Und warum muss ich einen Kerl schlagen,
Just to live large like Rockefeller
Nur um groß zu leben wie Rockefeller
First you didn't give a fuck but you're learnin' now
Zuerst war es dir egal, aber jetzt lernst du
If you don't respect the town then we'll burn you down
Wenn du die Stadt nicht respektierst, dann brennen wir dich nieder
God damn it's a motherfuckin' riot
Verdammt, es ist ein verdammter Aufstand
Black people only hate police so don't try it
Schwarze Menschen hassen nur Polizisten, also versuch es nicht
If you're not from the town then don't pass through
Wenn du nicht aus der Stadt kommst, dann fahr nicht durch
'Cause some O.G. fools might blast you
Denn einige O.G. Idioten könnten dich erschießen
It ain't right but it's long overdue
Es ist nicht richtig, aber es ist überfällig
We can't have peace till the niggas get a piece too
Wir können keinen Frieden haben, bis die Neger auch ein Stück bekommen
I want G's so you label me a criminal
Ich will G's, also nennst du mich einen Verbrecher
And if I die, I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
Und wenn ich sterbe, frage ich mich, ob der Himmel ein Ghetto hat
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
Ich frage mich, ob der Himmel ein Ghetto hat
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
Ich frage mich, ob der Himmel ein Ghetto hat
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
Ich frage mich, ob der Himmel ein Ghetto hat
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
Ich frage mich, ob der Himmel ein Ghetto hat
Here on Earth, tell me what's a black life worth
Hier auf der Erde, sag mir, was ist ein schwarzes Leben wert
A bottle of juice is no excuse, the truth hurts
Eine Flasche Saft ist keine Entschuldigung, die Wahrheit tut weh
And even when you take the shit
Und selbst wenn du den Scheiß nimmst
Move counties, get a lawyer, you can shake the shit
Zieh in andere Bezirke, hol dir einen Anwalt, du kannst den Scheiß abschütteln
Ask Rodney, LaTasha, and many more
Frag Rodney, LaTasha und viele mehr
It's been goin' on for years, there's plenty more
Es geht schon seit Jahren so, es gibt noch viele mehr
When they ask me, when will the violence cease?
Wenn sie mich fragen, wann wird die Gewalt aufhören?
When your troops stop shootin' niggas down in the street
Wenn deine Truppen aufhören, Neger auf der Straße zu erschießen
Niggas had enough time to make a difference
Neger hatten genug Zeit, einen Unterschied zu machen
Bear witness, own our own business
Zeugnis ablegen, unser eigenes Geschäft führen
Word to God, 'cause it's hard tryin' to make ends meet
Wort zu Gott, denn es ist hart, über die Runden zu kommen
First we couldn't afford shit now everything's free so we loot,
Erst konnten wir uns nichts leisten, jetzt ist alles kostenlos, also plündern wir,
Please don't shoot when you see
Bitte schieß nicht, wenn du siehst
I'm takin' from them 'cause for years they would take it from me
Ich nehme von ihnen, denn jahrelang haben sie von mir genommen
Now the tables have turned around
Jetzt haben sich die Tische umgedreht
You didn't listen, until the niggas burned it down
Du hast nicht zugehört, bis die Neger es niederbrannten
And now Bush can't stop the hit
Und jetzt kann Bush den Hit nicht stoppen
I predicted the shit, in 2Pacalypse
Ich habe den Scheiß vorausgesagt, in 2Pacalypse
And for once I was down with niggas, felt good
Und für einmal war ich mit den Negern unten, fühlte sich gut an
In the hood bein' around the niggas, yeah
Im Viertel bei den Negern zu sein, ja
And for the first time everybody let go
Und zum ersten Mal ließ jeder los
And the streets was death row
Und die Straßen waren der Todestrakt
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
Ich frage mich, ob der Himmel ein Ghetto hat
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
Ich frage mich, ob der Himmel ein Ghetto hat
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
Ich frage mich, ob der Himmel ein Ghetto hat
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
Ich frage mich, ob der Himmel ein Ghetto hat
I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
Ich frage mich, ob der Himmel ein Ghetto hat
I see no changes, all I see is racist faces
Ich sehe keine Veränderungen, alles was ich sehe sind rassistische Gesichter
Misplaced hate makes disgrace to races
Fehlgeleiteter Hass macht Schande für Rassen
We under, I wonder what it take to make this
Wir sind unterlegen, ich frage mich, was es braucht, um dies zu machen
One better place, let's erase the wait state
Ein besserer Ort, lass uns den Wartezustand löschen
Take the evil out the people, they'll be acting right
Nimm das Böse aus den Menschen, sie werden sich richtig verhalten
'Cause both black and white are smokin' crack tonight
Denn sowohl Schwarze als auch Weiße rauchen heute Abend Crack
And only time we deal is when we kill each other
Und die einzige Zeit, die wir handeln, ist, wenn wir uns gegenseitig töten
It takes skill to be real, time to heal each other
Es braucht Geschick, um echt zu sein, Zeit, um einander zu heilen
And though it seems Heaven-sent
Und obwohl es scheint, vom Himmel gesandt zu sein
We ain't ready to have a black President, huh
Wir sind nicht bereit, einen schwarzen Präsidenten zu haben, huh
It ain't a secret don't conceal the fact
Es ist kein Geheimnis, verheimliche die Tatsache nicht
The penitentiary's packed and it's filled with blacks
Das Gefängnis ist voll und es ist voll von Schwarzen
I wake up in the morning and I ask myself
Ich wache morgens auf und frage mich
Is life worth living, should I blast myself
Ist das Leben lebenswert, sollte ich mich selbst erschießen
I'm tired of being poor and even worse I'm black
Ich bin es leid, arm zu sein und noch schlimmer, ich bin schwarz
My stomach hurts so I'm lookin' for a purse to snatch
Mein Magen tut weh, also suche ich nach einer Handtasche zum Schnappen
Cops give a damn about a negro
Polizisten geben einen Dreck auf einen Neger
Pull a trigger, kill a nigga*, he's a hero
Zieh den Abzug, töte einen Neger*, er ist ein Held
Mo' nigga, mo' nigga, mo' niggas
Mehr Neger, mehr Neger, mehr Neger
I'd rather be dead than a po' nigga
Ich wäre lieber tot als ein armer Neger
Let the Lord judge the criminals
Lass den Herrn die Verbrecher richten
If I die, I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
Wenn ich sterbe, frage ich mich, ob der Himmel ein Ghetto hat

And if I didn't pass, mama whupped my ass
E se eu não passasse, minha mãe me batia
Was it my fault, papa didn't plan it out
Foi minha culpa, papai não planejou
Broke out left me to be the man of the house
Fugiu e me deixou ser o homem da casa
I couldn't take it, had to make a profit
Eu não aguentava, tinha que lucrar
Down the block, got a glock and I clock grips
Na esquina, peguei uma glock e comecei a vender
Makin' G's was my mission
Fazer dinheiro era minha missão
Movin' enough of this shit to get my mama out the kitchen
Vender o suficiente dessa merda para tirar minha mãe da cozinha
And why must I sock a fella,
E por que eu tenho que bater em um cara,
Just to live large like Rockefeller
Só para viver grande como Rockefeller

If you're not from the town then don't pass through
Se você não é da cidade, então não passe por aqui

Porque alguns velhos malucos podem te atirar
It ain't right but it's long overdue
Não é certo, mas já passou da hora
We can't have peace till the niggas get a piece too
Não podemos ter paz até os negros também terem uma parte

One better place, let's erase the wait state
Um lugar melhor, vamos apagar o estado de espera
Take the evil out the people, they'll be acting right
Tire o mal das pessoas, elas agirão direito
'Cause both black and white are smokin' crack tonight
Porque tanto negros quanto brancos estão fumando crack esta noite
And only time we deal is when we kill each other
E o único momento em que lidamos é quando nos matamos
It takes skill to be real, time to heal each other
É preciso habilidade para ser real, tempo para nos curarmos
