Respect The Game
Robert Rihmeek Williams
Yah
Big bag, got 'em big mad
A nigga gettin' to some money and his bitch bad
Jumpin' out the Rolls truck with the temp tag
I'm gettin' money, I don't get mad, ugh
Ask a nigga in my hood, he go and said it on stand
And when them situations came, I came out like a champ
When it was pourin' down rain and I came out of it damp
But now it's champagne showers when we poppin' the champ', ugh
We dodged all the feds and they traps
Niggas can't be us 'cause they rats
Stand tall, point a finger, never that
I knew a nigga had it all, went to the B, ain't get it back
That's why I'm humble as ever, and I rumble whatever
Don't chase hoes 'cause they come with this cheddar
I seen my man girl start actin' bougie when he fuck up his cheddar
Before you knew it, niggas was fuckin' her better
I knew about it and I
Wanted to tell him, I felt funny as ever
But when I told him, he went runnin' to tell her, damn
Remember I was down bad, I'm talkin' under the cellar
Now the Rolls Royces come with umbrellas
For the rain and all the pain that we been through
If you don't feed your wolves they gon' put you on the menu
That's why I be with family and some bulls that I been knew
If money determined loyalty, we'd cut you with a Ginsu
Now I go against you, facts
Rule number one, never count your homie pockets thinkin' you deserve it
Rule number two, never trust a bitch that'll fuck you for some purses
Rule number three, save you some of that money, shit you better stop splurgin'
'Cause when it's all said and done and you back at the bottom, they gon' treat you like you worthless
Respect the game
Fuck the fame
We millionaires fuck your watch and lil' chain
Niggas disappear quick as Lil Zane
You feelin' yourself, I know you got a lil' lane
Just hold your composure, I seen this shit happen over and over
That couple hundred thousand holdin' you over
That ain't real money
That's bill money, buy a Rollie, get a wheel money
Catch a case, pay a lawyer, take a deal money
Now you tapped out and got no appeal money
Callin' home like niggas done did you wrong
But when you had that money you could've put niggas on
And the moment they put cuffs on you, your bitch was gone
Student of the game, I'm just ahead of my class
I'm that nigga, but I never got my head up my ass
You doin' good, but I'm ready for bad
And you won't never catch me frontin' 'cause I'm used to bein' second to last
Respect the game
Rule number one, never count your homie pockets thinkin' you deserve it
Rule number two, never trust a bitch that'll fuck you for some purses
Rule number three, save you some of that money, shit you better stop splurgin'
'Cause when it's all said and done and you back at the bottom, they gon' treat you like you worthless
Respect the game
Yah
Yah
Big bag, got 'em big mad
Viel Geld macht sie ganz böse
A nigga gettin' to some money and his bitch bad
Ein Nigga kriegt 'n bisschen Geld und 'ne Bad Bitch
Jumpin' out the Rolls truck with the temp tag
Spring' aus'm Rolls Truck mit'm vorübergehenden Kennzeichen
I'm gettin' money, I don't get mad, ugh
Ich verdiene Geld, ich werd' nicht böse, ugh
Ask a nigga in my hood, he go and said it on stand
Frag 'n Nigga aus meiner Hood, er wird's auch vor Gericht sagen
And when them situations came, I came out like a champ
Und durch die ganzen Situationen bin ich zum Champion geworden
When it was pourin' down rain and I came out of it damp
Als es Regen gegossen hat und ich bin feucht weggekommen
But now it's champagne showers when we poppin' the champ', ugh
Aber jetzt spritzen wir mit Champagner 'rum nachdem wir ihn öffnen, ugh
We dodged all the feds and they traps
Wir sind den ganzen Bullen und ihren Fallen entwichen
Niggas can't be us 'cause they rats
Niggas könnten nicht wir sein, weil sie Ratten sind
Stand tall, point a finger, never that
Steh gerade, und zeig niemals auf jemanden
I knew a nigga had it all, went to the B, ain't get it back
Ich hatte alles, dann bin ich rein, hab's nicht zurückbekommen
That's why I'm humble as ever, and I rumble whatever
Deshalb bin ich so bescheiden wie immer und ich mach' immer Lärm
Don't chase hoes 'cause they come with this cheddar
Jag nicht den Hoes nach, die kommen dann mit dem Geld
I seen my man girl start actin' bougie when he fuck up his cheddar
Ich hab gesehen wie die Freundin von meinem Freund auf einmal schick war als er sein Geld verlor
Before you knew it, niggas was fuckin' her better
Plötzlich hatten Niggas sie besser gefickt
I knew about it and I
Ich wusste davon und ich
Wanted to tell him, I felt funny as ever
Wollte es ihm sagen, ich hab mich total komisch gefühlt
But when I told him, he went runnin' to tell her, damn
Aber als ich's ihm gesagt hab' ist er sofort zu ihr gerannt um es ihr zu erzählen
Remember I was down bad, I'm talkin' under the cellar
Weißt noch als ich ganz unten war, ich mein' noch tiefer als im Keller
Now the Rolls Royces come with umbrellas
Jetzt hat der Rolls Royce auch Regenschirme
For the rain and all the pain that we been through
Für den Regen und all den Schmerz, den wir überstanden haben
If you don't feed your wolves they gon' put you on the menu
Wenn du deine Wölfe nicht fütterst, tun sie dich auf's Menü
That's why I be with family and some bulls that I been knew
Deshalb bleib' ich mit meiner Familie und 'n paar Typen, die ich kenne
If money determined loyalty, we'd cut you with a Ginsu
Wenn Geld das Vermächtnis ausmachen würde, würden wir dich mi'm Ginsu stechen
Now I go against you, facts
Jetzt geh' ich auf dich drauf, echt
Rule number one, never count your homie pockets thinkin' you deserve it
Regel Nummer Eins: Zähl' nie das Geld in der Tasche deines Freundes, weil du meinst du es verdienst
Rule number two, never trust a bitch that'll fuck you for some purses
Regel Nummer Zwei: Trau' nie einer Bitch, die dich wegen ein paar Handtaschen fickt
Rule number three, save you some of that money, shit you better stop splurgin'
Regel Nummer Drei: Spar' bisschen von dem Geld, hör auf es zu verprassen
'Cause when it's all said and done and you back at the bottom, they gon' treat you like you worthless
Denn schließlich und endlich, wenn du wieder am Boden bist, werden sie dich als wertlos behandeln
Respect the game
Respektier' das Geschäft
Fuck the fame
Fick den Ruhm
We millionaires fuck your watch and lil' chain
Wir sind Millionäre, fick deine Uhr und deine kleine Kette
Niggas disappear quick as Lil Zane
Niggas verschwinden so schnell wie Lil Zane
You feelin' yourself, I know you got a lil' lane
Du hast Spaß, hast dein eigenes kleines Bisschen
Just hold your composure, I seen this shit happen over and over
Bleib bloß bei Fassung, den Scheiß hab ich wieder und wieder gesehen
That couple hundred thousand holdin' you over
Die paar hundert Tausend, die dich über die Runden bringen
That ain't real money
Das ist kein echtes Geld
That's bill money, buy a Rollie, get a wheel money
Das ist Geld für Rechnungen, für 'ne Rollie, für 'n Auto
Catch a case, pay a lawyer, take a deal money
Zum angeklagt werden, zum Anwalt bezahlen und 'n Deal annehmen
Now you tapped out and got no appeal money
Jetzt bist du pleite und hast kein Geld zur Berufung
Callin' home like niggas done did you wrong
Rufst zuhause an als ob die Niggas dir was angetan hätten
But when you had that money you could've put niggas on
Aber als du Geld hattest, hättest du Niggas beschäftigen können
And the moment they put cuffs on you, your bitch was gone
Und sobald sie dir Fesseln angelegt haben, war deine Bitch weg
Student of the game, I'm just ahead of my class
Ein Schüler des Geschäfts, ich bin Klassenbester
I'm that nigga, but I never got my head up my ass
Ich bin der Nigga, aber ich hab' meinen Kopf nicht in meinem eigenen Arsch
You doin' good, but I'm ready for bad
Dir geht's gut, aber ich bin auf Schlechtes vorbereitet
And you won't never catch me frontin' 'cause I'm used to bein' second to last
Und du wirst mich nie posen sehen, weil ich es gewöhnt bin Vorletzter zu sein
Respect the game
Respektier' das Geschäft
Rule number one, never count your homie pockets thinkin' you deserve it
Regel Nummer Eins: Zähl' nie das Geld in der Tasche deines Freundes, weil du meinst du es verdienst

Yah
Yah
Big bag, got 'em big mad
Saco grande os emputeceu
A nigga gettin' to some money and his bitch bad
Um cara 'ta ganhando dinheiro e tem uma mina top
Jumpin' out the Rolls truck with the temp tag
Saindo da caminhonete da Rolls com a etiqueta temporária
I'm gettin' money, I don't get mad, ugh
'To fazendo dinheiro, não fico puto, ugh
Ask a nigga in my hood, he go and said it on stand
Perguntou pra qualquer nego do meu bairro, ele foi e falou no Tribunal
And when them situations came, I came out like a champ
E quando vieram as situações, me sai como um campeão
When it was pourin' down rain and I came out of it damp
Quando 'tava chovendo e eu sai só úmido
But now it's champagne showers when we poppin' the champ', ugh
Mas agora é chuva de champanhe quando 'tamo estourando a garrafa, ugh
We dodged all the feds and they traps
Fugimos dos federais e suas armadilhas
Niggas can't be us 'cause they rats
Os caras não podem ser como nós, eles são ratos
Stand tall, point a finger, never that
Levantar, apontar o dedo, nunca faria isso
I knew a nigga had it all, went to the B, ain't get it back
Sabia que o cara tinha tudo, foi pro B, ele não conseguiu pegar de volta
That's why I'm humble as ever, and I rumble whatever
Por isso que eu 'to humilde como sempre, sempre pronto pro estrondo
Don't chase hoes 'cause they come with this cheddar
Não corra atrás das putas, elas vêm com o dinheiro
I seen my man girl start actin' bougie when he fuck up his cheddar
Vi a mina do meu parça se tornar burguesinha quando ele parou de receber
Before you knew it, niggas was fuckin' her better
Bobeou, ja tinha outro nego comendo ela melhor
I knew about it and I
Eu sabia disso, e eu
Wanted to tell him, I felt funny as ever
Queria falar pra ele, me senti estranho demais
But when I told him, he went runnin' to tell her, damn
Mas quando falei pra ele, ele correu e disse pra ele, porra
Remember I was down bad, I'm talkin' under the cellar
Lembro que eu 'tava pra baixo, digo abaixo do porão
Now the Rolls Royces come with umbrellas
Agora os Rolls Royce vem até com guarda-chuvas
For the rain and all the pain that we been through
Pra cuva e toda a dor que passamos
If you don't feed your wolves they gon' put you on the menu
Se não alimentar os seus lobos, eles te colocam no menu
That's why I be with family and some bulls that I been knew
Por isso que eu fico com a família e uns touros que já conhecia
If money determined loyalty, we'd cut you with a Ginsu
Se o dinheiro determinasse a lealdade, nós te cortaríamos com um Ginsu
Now I go against you, facts
Agora eu vou contra você, fatos
Rule number one, never count your homie pockets thinkin' you deserve it
Regra numero um, nunca conte o bolso do seu parceiro pensando que você merece
Rule number two, never trust a bitch that'll fuck you for some purses
Regra numero dois, nunca confie em nenhuma puta que te dá só pra ganhar umas bolsas
Rule number three, save you some of that money, shit you better stop splurgin'
Regra numero três, salva um pouco desse dinheiro, porra, para de ostentar
'Cause when it's all said and done and you back at the bottom, they gon' treat you like you worthless
Por que quando tudo acabar e 'cê tiver la em baixo, eles vão te tratar como se não valesse nada
Respect the game
Respeite o jogo
Fuck the fame
Foda-se a fama
We millionaires fuck your watch and lil' chain
Somos milionarios, fode-se o seu relogio e cordão
Niggas disappear quick as Lil Zane
Os caras desaparecem mais rapido que o Lil Zane
You feelin' yourself, I know you got a lil' lane
'Ta se achando, sei que você tem um esqueminha
Just hold your composure, I seen this shit happen over and over
Mas segura sua compostura, já vi essa porra acontecer várias vezes
That couple hundred thousand holdin' you over
Esses centos mil 'ta te segurando
That ain't real money
Não é dinheiro de verdade
That's bill money, buy a Rollie, get a wheel money
É dinheiro pras contas, comprar um Rolex e um carro
Catch a case, pay a lawyer, take a deal money
Dinheiro pra ser preso, pagar um advogado e aceitar um trato
Now you tapped out and got no appeal money
Agora você 'ta quebrado e não tem dinheiro pra apelar
Callin' home like niggas done did you wrong
Ligando pra casa como se os nego tivessem te fudido
But when you had that money you could've put niggas on
Mas quando você tinha aquele dinheiro, poderia ter ajudado eles
And the moment they put cuffs on you, your bitch was gone
E no momento que eles colocaram algemas em você, sua mina sumiu
Student of the game, I'm just ahead of my class
Estudante do jogo, 'to simplesmente alêm dos meus companheiros
I'm that nigga, but I never got my head up my ass
Sou o cara, mas nunca andei com a cabeça grande
You doin' good, but I'm ready for bad
'Ta fazendo o bem, mas 'to pronto pro mal
And you won't never catch me frontin' 'cause I'm used to bein' second to last

That's why I'm humble as ever, and I rumble whatever
Por eso soy humilde como siempre, y yo alboroto lo que sea
Don't chase hoes 'cause they come with this cheddar
No persigo a putas porque ellas vienen con el dinero
I seen my man girl start actin' bougie when he fuck up his cheddar
He visto a la chica de mi hermano actuar cotizada cuando él manejó mal su dinero

Antes de saberlo, cabrones se la chingaban mejor
I knew about it and I
Sabía sobre eso y yo
Wanted to tell him, I felt funny as ever
Quería decirle, me sentí gracioso como nunca
But when I told him, he went runnin' to tell her, damn

Big bag, got 'em big mad
Borsa grande, li ho fatti incazzare
A nigga gettin' to some money and his bitch bad
Un tipo che fa soldi e una cagna da paura
Jumpin' out the Rolls truck with the temp tag
Salta fuori dal pick-up Rolls con larga temporanea
I'm gettin' money, I don't get mad, ugh
Sto facendo soldi, non incazzarti, uh
Ask a nigga in my hood, he go and said it on stand
Chiedi a un fratello del mio quartiere, lo testimonia
And when them situations came, I came out like a champ
E quando è arrivato il momento, me ne sono uscito come un campione
When it was pourin' down rain and I came out of it damp
Quando pioveva a dirotto, ne sono uscito bagnato
But now it's champagne showers when we poppin' the champ', ugh
Ma ora è pioggia di champagne quando vinciamo il campionato
We dodged all the feds and they traps
Ha scansato tutti i poliziotti che mi hanno teso trappole
Niggas can't be us 'cause they rats
Quelli non possono batterci, sono delle spie
Stand tall, point a finger, never that
Stai dritto, punta il dito, mai quello
I knew a nigga had it all, went to the B, ain't get it back
So quel fratello ha avuto tanto, è tornato alla B, e non l'ha riavuta indietro
That's why I'm humble as ever, and I rumble whatever
È per questo che sono più umile che mai, e dico chi se ne frega
Don't chase hoes 'cause they come with this cheddar
Non correre dietro a queste puttane, non portano soldi
I seen my man girl start actin' bougie when he fuck up his cheddar
Ho visto la tipa del mio amico diventare stronza quando lui ha perso i soldi
Before you knew it, niggas was fuckin' her better
Prima che se ne accorgesse, qualcun altro la stava scopando
I knew about it and I
Io lo sapevo e
Wanted to tell him, I felt funny as ever
Volevo dirglielo, non mi sono mai sentito così a disagio
But when I told him, he went runnin' to tell her, damn
Quando glie l'ho detto, lui è corso da lei per dirle tutto, dannazione
Remember I was down bad, I'm talkin' under the cellar
Ricordi quando ero giù, sto parlando della cantina
Now the Rolls Royces come with umbrellas
Ora le Rolls Royce hanno un ombrello
For the rain and all the pain that we been through
Per la pioggia e per tutto il dolore che abbiamo provato
If you don't feed your wolves they gon' put you on the menu
Se non dai cibo ai tuoi lupi, metteranno te nel loro menù
That's why I be with family and some bulls that I been knew
È per questo che sto con la mia famiglia e con alcuni vecchi amici
If money determined loyalty, we'd cut you with a Ginsu
Se i soldi facessero la lealtà, ti taglieremmo con un Ginsu
Now I go against you, facts
Ora vado contro di te, fatti
Rule number one, never count your homie pockets thinkin' you deserve it
Regola numero uno, non contare mai i soldi in tasca ai tuoi amici pensando che sia giusto
Rule number two, never trust a bitch that'll fuck you for some purses
Regola numero due, mai fidarti di una troia che ti scopa per avere delle borse
Rule number three, save you some of that money, shit you better stop splurgin'
Regola numero tre, metti da parte un po' di soldi, meglio smettere di sprecare
'Cause when it's all said and done and you back at the bottom, they gon' treat you like you worthless
Perché quando tutto sarà già stato detto e fatto, torni sul fondo e ti tratteranno come se fossi inutile
Respect the game
Rispetta il gioco
Fuck the fame
Fanculo la fama
We millionaires fuck your watch and lil' chain
Noi milionari ce ne fottiamo del tuo orologio e della tua piccola catena
Niggas disappear quick as Lil Zane
I fratelli spariscono veloci, tipo Lil Zane
You feelin' yourself, I know you got a lil' lane
Ti senti sicuro, so che ti senti speciale
Just hold your composure, I seen this shit happen over and over
Stai composto, ho visto questa cosa più e più volte
That couple hundred thousand holdin' you over
Quel paio di migliaia ti tengono in pugno
That ain't real money
Quelli non sono veri soldi
That's bill money, buy a Rollie, get a wheel money
Sono solo banconote, comprati una Rollie, investi nelle quattro ruote
Catch a case, pay a lawyer, take a deal money
Fatti arrestare, paga un avvocato, fai un affare
Now you tapped out and got no appeal money
Ora ti sei arreso e non hai più soldi per fare ricorso
Callin' home like niggas done did you wrong
Chiami a casa come se i fratelli ti avessero fatto un torto
But when you had that money you could've put niggas on
Ma quando avevi i soldi avresti potuto provvedere per i fratelli
And the moment they put cuffs on you, your bitch was gone
E nel momento in cui ti hanno messo le manette la tua cagna se ne è andata
Student of the game, I'm just ahead of my class
Studente, sono il primo della classe in questo gioco
I'm that nigga, but I never got my head up my ass
Sono uno studente, ma non sono mai stato ignorante
You doin' good, but I'm ready for bad
Stai facendo bene, ma io sono pronto per il male
And you won't never catch me frontin' 'cause I'm used to bein' second to last
E non mi beccherai mai a ostentare, perché sono abituato ad essere il penultimo
