There is no particular reason I chose to translate the particular lyrics. I made my selections by aimlessly reading through the rap section of lyric websites and choosing ones that were from fairly popular songs and/or artists and that the lyrics themselves sort of had a story aspect to them.
50 Cent - What Up Gangsta?
“
1 They say I walk around like got an "S" on my chest
2 Naw, that's a semi-auto, and a vest on my chest
3 I try not to say nothing, the DA might want to play in court
4 But I'll hunt or duck a nigga down like it's sport
5 Front on me, I'll cut ya, gun-butt ya or bump ya
6 I'm not the type to get knocked for D.W.I.
7 I'm the type that'll kill your connect when the coke price rise
8 Gangstas, they bump my shit then they know me
9 I grew up around some niggas that's not my homies
10 Hundred G's I stash it (what?), the mack I blast it (yeah!)
”
1 It has been said that my actions are comparative to those of Superman
2 They seem to be mistaken, however, the bullets are stopped by kevlar and my powers come in the form of a mechanized weapon
3 I do not speak when it is found to be unnecessary, the things I say might find me accountable in a court room setting
4 Under the proper circumstances, I may hunt down a fellow man
5 If I am brought upon an uncomfortable situation, I can use my weapon and/or self in various ways to bring hurt upon you
6 I am responsible and aware of my drinking limit, and am careful to never exceed that amount so that I may maneuver my vehicle in a safe and proper manner
7 The drug market is varying in predictability, I would prefer however that prices do no change because it will effect all of us
8 I take it upon myself to be kind and courteous towards those who are in an upset mood
9 Moreover, as a child I was raised in environments that prepared me for similar situations
10 I have responsibly invested Hundreds of Thousands of hard earned dollars (May I ask what it was you said?), in celebration of my hard earned finances I occasionally shoot my legally registered firearm (I can attest, I am witness to this happening)
50 Cent - The Bomb (Diddy Diss)
“
1 Listen now nigga I'm not playin
2 Are you ready for that
3 I show you who they aimin at
4 Bang bang bang run and toss the gatt
5 No no no lookin back
6 Bitch quit playin where the paper at
7 Put in work nigga thats that
8 Automatic shotgun can ya handle that
9 Wanna bullshit nigga thats a fact
10 Ride through yo hood strapped
”
1 Please, do pay attention as I am really quite serious
2 Are you ready to receive my message?
3 I have important information regarding an impending attack
4 The assailants will attempt to assassinate me,
5 And they will do so without a second thought
6 You pestering woman, stop your hesitation and tell me the condition of our finances
7 You must work hard if you wish to achieve great goals
8 You do not want to mess with me, for I have an automatic weapon chambered in 12ga
9 Believe me; I do not lie about such matters
10 When I happen into your neighborhood I am always well armed
Notorious B.I.G. - One More Chance
“
1 First things first, I poppa, freaks all the honies
2 Dummies, playboy bunnies, those wantin money
3 Those the ones I like cause they don't get nathan’
4 but penetration, unless it smells like sanitation
5 Heart throb, never, black and ugly as ever
6 However, I stay Coogi down to the socks
7 Rings and watch filled with rocks
”
1 As a general rule I take it upon myself to perform sexual acts on but not limited too, beautiful young ladies,
2 woman of lacking intellect, those that would appear in nude form for a magazine, and even prostitutes
3 It is the woman in the latter group, in which I prefer, as I can benefit from the sexual gratification without having to maintain a formal relationship,
4 that is of course unless an unpleasant odor is wafting from them in my general vicinity
5 I am far from being a romanticist, and my physical appearance is extremely ugly
6 I am able to cover up that fact by wearing my best looking attire, just ignore my average socks
7 When you see me it is very apparent that I wear expensive rings and watches filled with the best diamonds available.
“
1 Don’t see my ones, don’t see my guns - get it
2 Now tell ya friends Poppa hit it then split it
3 I don’t know what the hell’s stoppin’ ya
4 I’m clockin’ ya - Versace shades watchin’ ya
5 Once ya grin, I’m in game, begin
6 Climax that your man can’t make
7 Call and tell him you’ll be home real late
”
1 I present to you this fact. You can have neither my money nor my weapons
2 Take my advice and notify your peers that we have engaged in violent sexual acts
3 I am having trouble understanding why you refuse to approach me
4 I am gazing intensely at you through my expensive glasses.
5 Once I see that you have responded towards my actions with a smile, I will make my next move.
6 Moreover, I will be able to make you orgasm better than you current partner ever could
7 First, please be sure to telephone your partner and inform him that you will be returning home later than previously expected.
