[01.16]Eminem—sing for the moment

果子的阿三

听HIPHOP和R&B有一段时间了，杂七杂八的也听了不少。最近一直在干一件事，就是把以前听过的经典曲目都拿出来好好研究一下歌词，再重新欣赏一遍（以前听歌时从来不看歌词的```）。个人认为有很大的收获，首先是觉得之前对HIPHOP的欣赏很肤浅。研究完歌词后便发现自己更容易进入歌曲的意境，更能和RAPPER产生共鸣，觉得自己进入了和之前完全不同的音乐境界```还有一点收获就是英语水平有了些提高^0^....      今天要推荐的是EMINEM的Sing For The Moment。欧美前线版块有一条版规：不可以推荐泛滥曲目，如Don't cry等。这么看来我这个帖子也应该算违反版规了....不过我觉得就算是泛滥歌曲，也会有人对它有新的理解，新的认识。所以我个人非常赞赏那些有自己独到见解，体现出独特个性的推荐贴....             [Verse #1] These ideas are nightmares for white parents Whose worst fear is a child with dyed hair and who likes earrings Like whatever they say has no bearing Its so scary in a house that allows no swearing To see him walking around with his headphones blaring Alone in his own zone, cold and he dont care He's a problem child, what bothers him all comes out When he talks about his ****in' dad walkin out Cos he hates him so bad that he blocks him out But if he ever saw him again, he'd prolly knock him out His thoughts are whacked, he's mad so he's talkin' back Talkin black, brainwashed from rock and rap He sags his pants, 2 rags and a stocking cap His step-father hit him so he socked him back And broke his nose, this house is a broken home There's no control, he just lets his emotions go （很冷的感觉，很心酸，也很心痛） Come on... [Chorus:] Sing with me, sing for the year Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear Sing with me,just for today Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away Eminem [Verse #2] Entertainment is danger, intertwine it with gansters In the land of the killers, a sinner's mind is a sanctum Only you're unholy, only have one homey Only this gun, lonely, cuz don't anyone know me But everybody just feels like they can relate I guess words are a mother****er, they can be great Or they can be great, or even worse, they can teach hate Its like kids hang on every single statement we make Like they worship us, plus all the stores ship us platinum Now how the **** did this metamorphasis happen? From standin' on corners and porches just rappin' To havin' a fortune, no more kissin' ass But then these critics crucify you, journalists try to burn you Fans turn on you, attorney's all gonna turn it to To get their hands on every dime you have They want you to lose your mind every time you mad So they can try to make you out to look like a loose canon You need to spew, dont hesitate to produce air-guns Thats why these prosecutors wanna convict me Swiftly just to get me offa these streets quickly But all their kids been listen'n to me religiously So i'm signing cds while police fingerprint me They're for the judges daughter, but his grudge is against me If i'm such a ****in' menace, this shit doesnt make sense, Pete It's all political, if my music is literal and i'm a criminal, How the **** can i raise a little girl? I couldn't. i wouldn't be fit to You're full of shit too, Guerrera, that was a fist that hit you! (愤怒的Eminem!) [Verse #3] They say music can alter moods and talk to you But can it load a gun for you and cock it too? Well if it can, then the next time you assault a dude Just tell the judge it was my fault, and i'll get sued （Eminem很精彩的辩驳） See what these kids do, is hear about us toting pistols And they want to get one, cos they think the shit's cool Not knowin' we're really just protectin' ourselves We're entertainers, of course this shit's affecting our sales You ignoramus. but music is reflection of self We just explain it, and then we get our cheques in the mail It's ****ed up ain't it, how we can come from practically nothin' To bein' able to have any ****in' thing that we wanted It's why we sing for these kids that don't have a thing Except for a dream and a ****ing rap magazine Who post pinup pictures on their walls all day long Idolise their favourite rappers and know all they songs Or for anyone who's ever been through shit in they lives So they sit and they cry at night, wishing they die Till they throw on a rap record, and they sit and they vibe We're nothing to you, but we're the ****in' shit in their eyes That's why we sieze the moment, and try to freeze it and own it Squeeze it and hold it, 'cos we consider these minutes golden And maybe they'll admit it when we're gone Just let our spirits live on, through out lyrics that you hear in our songs (一股感动和豪迈的情感喷发而出） And we can [Chorus] [Chorus Without Beat] [Instrumental]
