My Life

^[3]  美國南方嘻哈樂的老牌饒舌歌手Scarface於1991年脱離當

時已被受各方讚賞的三人團體the Geto Boys獨自單飛，幾張專輯的問世儘管未曾有真正在排行上締造傲人的成績，但他無疑的是美國南方嘻哈樂圈中最為人推崇的奇葩。在他的作品中並沒有跟流行潮流隨波逐流的曲調，多年來他堅持創新個人的饒舌風格，眾多已在美國嘻哈歌壇巧成名就的超級大牌藝人如Nas 、Jay-Z、Ice Cube、2pac、Too Short、Redman、YGK還都是Scarface的忠實歌迷。而那些有機會與他合作的人更是對他充滿敬佩之意，而Scarface也就有“嘻哈大使”的封號。這張My Homies Pt. 2是Scarface的專輯之一，專輯中Scarface慣用鋼琴配樂和美妙和聲，Rap的速度通常不緊不慢，卻一次次將最黑暗的故事敍述你面前。

My Life - Scarface

Oooohh yo Vice drop this heat dog ugh

Hit the bass line

Yo Vice what you're doin' man

Straight up ugh

I'm too deep to quit

And too strick to fold

And you need to split ni**a G into code

Come on these years to teach

Homey speak to know it

Bodybag what we're talkin' about

You weak you row

The game is overcrowded so we fight for space

Neighbourhood show the hustle

Still we grind to win

Tryin' to find a way

To come up on 2 pounds of yay

And double up it

Ain't never happened touch it

A lot of niggaz focued on they candy paints

And that was in the grills

Steering wheels and grand

But I ain't trippin' out here

Flippin' I just need to thank

Money miny yo all the mission tryin' to steal me bank

Ride and homicides we get it

F**k it peepin' in horn

Killin' all these p**sy niggaz think they keepin' in God

Pistol cocked on the block and all they fearin' is death

Then again ni**a roaddog you feelin' me yet

So if I die I'm tryin' to get it mamma barely deed

And pray to God that he kept this spot hell me

Sad as f**k what the ni**a stuck down the raw

Bust friends back in the prison

Foundin' rock to the troup

Here I smoke and tryin' to hide it

But was played by the rule

And if live like the gold fiend

Then you'd do what they do

I'm on my own limits sold buck words

All alone in the ghetto deep in w**d

Sweat in Jelly Nose

Worrey eyes you either do it or you die

Crimin' in flood ridin' your blood

Cause this is your life

Our golden law now foes or friends

I'm on my own no hoes no ends

I been smillin' but I can't innovate

I feel that hurt but I can't explain it

I have been around with a player or two

And still Hurricane can be

Loose when you pumped the face

Real ni**a blues and it hold your aims

You're bold or fold no in betweens

Console your seems don't blow your creams

Also don't you loose your dreams

This is my life this is my life

I just got word: my uncle done died

But ain't no tears on my face

Cause I done already cried

I been here before dead to me is not new

My heart safe it mamma don't cops too

I got my best to get my purpose to the Lord

But sometimes this sh*t be f**kin' with me hard

And I'm heartless I'm a kid again

Lookin' out my window watchin' niggaz get murdered

In college worked the parties

Step with drink

Just to get through the night

Go to school only the anchor stomach givin' you fight

Cause sure there were fights

And I was bustin' like a the sun b**ch

The smartest ni**a on the block live in kick

The convicts with worry hard to to the tails

Searchin' for heaven and livin' in hell

They say I'm wrong for teaches this on

F**k what you believe can't heal by myself

That's the way I'm livin' this is my life

Our golden law now foes or friends

I'm on my own no hoes no ends

I been smillin' but I can't innovate

I feel that hurt but I can't explain it

I have been around with a player or two

And still Hurricane can be

Loose when you pumped the face

Real ni**a blues and it hold your aims

You're bold or fold no in betweens

Console your seems don't blow your creams

Also don't you loose your dreams

This is my life this is my life

I only got one eye but I see things ever so clear

Been acquainted with death but I never know fear

I still roll to spots cats scared to go there

If it's a heaven for a G if not

Prepare to go there

I live for today and not promise tommorrow

Smoke w**d and set lead

And try to dry my sorrows

In this game of life ain't no rules to follow

And if I come to lie for them

It's a hard heal to swallow

I'm still the smallest cat with the biggest rep in H-Town

Stress in my life is gettin' hard to take down

Havin' visions of cats rollin' in my weight now

It feels like I'm about to have a nervous break down

It takes a big man to share this pride

Tryin' to get my soul right and put the brain inside

Y'all niggaz are so scared to ride

They got it from Still I alive to Why I Feel So bad inside

This is my life

Our golden law now foes or friends

I'm on my own no hoes no ends

I been smillin' but I can't innovate

I feel that hurt but I can't explain it

I have been around with a player or two

And still Hurricane can be

Loose when you pumped the face

Real ni**a blues and it hold your aims

You're bold or fold no in betweens

Console your seems don't blow your creams

Also don't you loose your dreams

This is my life this is my life
