You Never Know-Immortal Technique

[ti:You Never Know] [ar:Immortal Technique] [al:Revolutionary Vol.2] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.00]You Never Know (你永远不知道) - Immortal Technique [00:11.20][Verse 1] [00:12.64] [00:36.97]She was on her way to becoming a college graduate [00:39.17] [00:40.09]Wouldn't even stop to talk to the average kid [00:42.23] [00:42.97]The type of latina I'd sit and contemplate marriage with [00:45.09] [00:46.09]F**k the horse and carriage sh*t her love was never for hire [00:48.77] [00:49.40]Disciplined intellectual beauty's what I desire [00:52.26]Flyer than Salma Hayek or Jennifer Lopez
那时她就要大学毕业了 [00:54.39] [00:55.44]Everyone told me kickin' it to her was hopeless
但她还是经常和普通孩子聊天 [00:57.70] [00:58.56]At first I just thought she didn't mess with broke kids
她是一位拉美裔女人 她是我想给予爱并与之结婚的女人 [01:01.37]The thug niggas always talking about how they smoke kids [01:04.18]
但真是糟糕 她的爱从不轻易施舍 [01:04.75]But the rich-sniff-coke kids got no play [01:07.53]"I'm not even interested" is what her body language would say
我爱上了一个有节制充满智慧的美丽女孩 [01:10.90]Everyone around the way gave up trying to get in it
她比萨尔玛·海耶克或詹妮佛·洛佩茨还忙 [01:13.71]It didn't matter how good your game was she wasn't with it [01:16.83]On the block b**ches was jealous but wouldn't admit it
每个人都告诉我 爱上她 我一点希望也没有 [01:19.13] [01:19.70]Talk sh*t and deny to everyone that they did it
一开始我就想 她一定不会和坏男孩扯上关系 [01:22.19]
我的兄弟们总是喜欢讨论他们是如何**的 [01:22.70]'Cause they regretted the long list of niggas that they let hit it [01:26.11]And no one ever gave them sh*t except McDonald's and did-dick
**的小青年 就算腰缠万贯 也可能没戏 [01:29.09]Smoking w**d with thoughts of envy whenever they lit it
因为她的种种表现都在暗示她对这种类型的家伙一点也不感冒 [01:32.09]She spoke intelligently and they bit it always trying to copy
倾慕她的所有人都放弃了对她的追求 [01:35.58]But when they tried to use her vocab they sounded sloppy
不管你的游戏多么有趣 她就是没有兴趣 [01:38.70]She had a style all her own respectful and pure
在时尚场所出现时 女人们纷纷嫉妒地眼红 但就是不肯承认 [01:41.40]I was sick in the head for her and there wasn't a cure [01:44.99]
闲言碎语议论纷纷 但却极力否认她们嫉妒她 [01:46.30][Hook - Jean Grae] [01:48.80]
因为她们讨厌这么多男人对她充满仰慕 [01:51.61]Don't you know that time waits for no man
没有人令她们心悦诚服 她们只喜欢速食食品和翻云覆雨的事 [01:53.54]Not fate it's all planned
无论何时** 她们都带着深深的嫉妒 [01:55.23]
她们总爱抨击她充满智慧的说话方式 但又总是极力模仿 [01:56.54]I'm blessed just to know you
当她们努力模仿她的言语时 又显得那么愚蠢拙劣 [01:59.10]
她有自己与众不同的风格 彬彬有礼 纯洁无暇 [02:00.23]I've loved and I've lost just to hold you all night [02:02.66]
我满脑子都是她的影子 挥之不去 [02:03.85]Can't find a reason why [02:05.40] [02:06.02]God came between you and I [02:08.27]If I had the chance again I'd never let you go
你知道吗 时间不等人 [02:12.08]Hold tight to your love 'cause you never know
这不是命运 但一切自有安排 [02:15.03][Verse 2] [02:15.58]Her eyes are brown and beautiful yet empty and sad
上帝眷顾我 让我认识你 [02:17.71] [02:18.27]I used to talk to her occasionally and she was glad
爱过 失去过 只想整晚抱着你 [02:20.89] [02:21.64]That I wasn't just another ni**a trying to get in it
没有任何理由 [02:23.88] [02:24.70]So every now and then we'd stop and talk for a minute
上帝曾在你我左右 [02:27.06]
如果再给我一次机会 我绝不会让你离开 [02:27.88]I didn't have a gimmick so the minutes turned to hours
珍惜面前的爱 因为未来无人知晓 [02:30.56]On her birthday I gave her a poem with flowers [02:33.86]Then I took her out to dinner after her cousin's baby shower
她棕色的眼睛美丽深邃 却又空洞充满悲伤 [02:37.04]We talked about power to the people and such [02:38.98]
偶然一次机会 我同她聊天 她很高兴 [02:39.79]We spent more time together but it was never enough [02:42.16]
别人总是有目的地接近她 我却不是 [02:42.79]I never tried to sneak a touch or even cop a feel [02:46.16]I was too interested in keeping it real
所以偶然碰到 我们就会停下来聊会儿天 [02:48.21] [02:48.97]Perfectly honest and complete she would always call me "carino"
我真诚不耍小伎俩 所以后来我们常常聊好几个小时 [02:52.58]And never Technique bought me a new book to read every 2 or 3 weeks
她的生日 我送她一束花 一首诗 [02:56.71]Forever changing the expression of my thoughts when I speak
参加了她堂哥的迎婴聚会后 我带她出去吃晚饭 [02:59.33]It was because of her I even deaded all of my freaks
我们谈论了人类神奇的力量 还有其他诸如此类的话题 [03:02.63]She convinced me to stop hangin' out on the streets [03:05.81]To stop robbin' and stealin' from people like you
我们花了更多时间在一起 但这远远不够 [03:08.75]Instead I took her out to the Apollo and the Bronx Zoo [03:12.12]We sailed del Barrio and the Metropolitan too
我从没有意图不轨 或是有非分之想 [03:13.93]
我只想让一切就这样真实下去 [03:14.74]Got to the point when I was either with her or my crew [03:18.17]So I decided one day to tell her my feelings was true
我们相处彼此坦诚 没有秘密 她总是喜欢叫我可爱的宝贝儿 [03:21.41]I couldn't live without her so I told her facing my fears
从不矫揉造作 每隔两或三周她都会为我买本新书 [03:24.59]But honey's only response was a face full of tears
当我说话时 她永远都会改变我表达的方式 [03:27.59]She could only sob hysterically holding me tight
皆因为她 我甚至停止了我所有的怪异行为 [03:29.77]
她说服我不再游手好闲 [03:30.53]I tried to speak but she wouldn't stop until I left sight
不再偷鸡摸狗 [03:32.89]
而我带着她去看阿波罗神像 游布朗克斯动物园 [03:33.58]I felt like a moth who got himself too close to the light
我们参观巴里奥博物馆 在大城市的街道上散步 [03:36.46]Except I didn't burn I turned cold after that night [03:38.69]
不管是和她在一起 还是和我的朋友在一起 我都不会拐弯抹角 [03:40.24][Hook - Jean Grae]
所以我下决心 有朝一日 一定要告诉她 我对她是真心的 [03:40.99]Don't you know that time waits for no man
没有她 我活不下去 所以我向她表白 直面我内心的恐惧 [03:43.43]
但是亲爱的宝贝儿什么也没说 只是满脸的泪水 [03:44.11]Not fate it's all planned
她歇斯底里地哭泣着 紧紧地抱着我 [03:45.98] [03:46.81]I'm blessed just to know you
我想要说些什么 但是她不停地哭泣 我只能垂头丧气地离开 [03:49.79] [03:50.91]I've loved and I've lost just to hold you all night
我感觉自己就像一只飞蛾 固执地扑向了燃烧的火焰 [03:53.30]
只是我不会燃烧 但自从那夜之后 我的心渐渐变得冰冷 [03:54.54]Can't find a reason why [03:56.04] [03:56.84]God came between you and I
你知道吗 时间不等人 [03:58.97]If I had the chance again I'd never let you go [04:02.08]
这不是命运 但一切自有安排 [04:02.91]Hold tight to your love 'cause you never know [04:05.76][Verse 3]
上帝眷顾我 让我认识你 [04:06.08]I went on with my life college and my career [04:08.58]
爱过 失去过 只想整晚抱着你 [04:09.20]Ended up locked up like an animal for a year [04:11.01]
没有任何理由 [04:12.19]Where the C O 's talk to you like they were the overseer [04:14.62]
上帝曾在你我左右 [04:15.37]Then I got sent to the hole when my exit was near
如果再给我一次机会 我绝不会让你离开 [04:18.07] [04:18.70]At night in my cell I'd close my eyes and I'd see her
珍惜面前的爱 因为未来无人知晓 [04:21.58]Hold her close in my dreams but when I woke she disappeared [04:24.01]
我的生活依然继续 读大学 然后工作 [04:24.57]Just an empty cell until the state gave me parole in the summer [04:28.44]Came back in tact and on track
结束了长达一年如困兽般的生活 [04:30.31]But the fact of the matter is I still felt cold [04:33.42]Even after my mother hugged me cryin' at home
老板们不停地找你谈话 就好像他们要监视你的一举一动 [04:36.74]My real niggas would catch me thinkin' out of my zone [04:39.66]F**kin' lots of different women but I still felt alone
当我即将找到出路时 又将我送回牢笼里 [04:42.41] [04:43.17]Relatively well-known around the New York underground
深夜 在我的牢窝里 我闭上眼睛满眼看到的都是她 [04:45.35]
在梦里紧紧抱着她 醒来她却消失不见 [04:46.15]But I kept thinking of her and how we used to be down [04:48.97]The sound of her voice and the beautiful smell of her hair
只有空荡荡的牢窝陪着我 夏天渐渐来临 我终于得到释放 [04:51.89]Though gone physically somehow it was still there
心渐渐变得完整 生活渐渐回归正轨 [04:55.27]I had to do something because the sh*t was too much to bear
但事实是 我的心仍然寒冷无比 [04:58.34]So I went and visited the building where she used to live
即便我的母亲将我紧紧抱在怀里 我仍然在家里放声大哭 [05:01.46]The world looks a lot different after you do a bid
我的好兄弟们一定觉得我迷失了自己的方向 [05:04.45]The way your life done changed
真是糟糕 形形色色那么多女人 但我仍然感到孤独 [05:06.06]While primitive minds (are) still stuck in the same game [05:08.26]
在纽约不为人知的阴暗世界里 我的事大家都知道 [05:09.19]Like her cousin who was on the corner slangin' coc*ine [05:11.44]
但我仍然忍不住想到她 想到我们是如何走到今天这一步 [05:12.05]Stepped in the lobby and tapped the button next to her last name
她美妙的声音 她秀发的香味 [05:15.37]Her mom buzzed me up and hugged me up like a mother ought to
虽然再也听不到 再也嗅不到 但我仍然能感受到 [05:18.90]But her facial expression changed when I asked about her daughter
我必须做点什么 因为这痛苦和煎熬已让我无法承受 [05:21.44][Hook - Jean Grae]
所以我前往她曾经居住过的公寓 [05:22.19]Don't you know that time waits for no man
在你做出决定的那一刻 世界发生了彻底的颠覆 [05:23.74]Not fate it's all planned [05:25.06]I'm blessed just to know you
你的生活发生了翻天覆地的变化 [05:28.24]
但最初的苦痛和折磨仍然挥之不去 [05:29.42]I've loved and I've lost just to hold you all night [05:31.80]
就像他的堂哥 固执地在阴暗的街角吸着*** [05:32.86]Can't find a reason why [05:34.60]
我走进公寓的大厅 按响了她家的门铃 [05:35.30]God came between you and I
她的母亲让我进门 亲切地拥抱了我 就像慈爱的母亲那般 [05:36.86]
但是当我询问她的女儿时 她的脸突然变得僵硬 [05:37.78]If I had the chance again I'd never let you go [05:40.84]
你知道吗 时间不等人 [05:41.35]Hold tight to your love 'cause you never know
这不是命运 但一切自有安排 [05:43.52]
上帝眷顾我 让我认识你 [05:44.21][Verse 4] [05:44.47]She told me that there was a note for me that was left behind
爱过 失去过 只想整晚抱着你 [05:47.72]She had left it there waiting for such a long time [05:50.51]I was inclined to ask about it but she brought it up first
没有任何理由 [05:52.96] [05:53.63]I saw a tear swelling up in her eye and then she cursed
上帝曾在你我左右 [05:56.76]She told me where the letter was and I started thinking the worst [05:59.76]Reversed my position stepped over and opened the door
如果再给我一次机会 我绝不会让你离开 [06:01.94] [06:02.82]And sure enough there was an envelope with my name on the floor
珍惜面前的爱 因为未来无人知晓 [06:06.06]"Nobody loves you more than me carino" is what the letter said [06:09.11]"By the time you get to read this I'll probably be dead [06:11.49]
她告诉我 她女儿留了一张纸条给我 [06:12.18]But when you left in '97 a part of me went to Heaven
她为我保留了很久 [06:15.36]I thank God at least I got to know what love really was
我正打算询问内容时 她先开了口 [06:18.29]But it hurt me to see what true love really does [06:21.28]'Cause even though we never made love you were all that there was
我看见泪水在她眼里打转 然后她骂了一句 [06:24.46]It was because I loved you so much that I had to make you leave
她告诉我纸条在哪里 我开始预想最糟糕的情况 [06:27.31]
我转过身走过去 慢慢打开门 [06:28.06]You made me doubt the way I thought you made me want to believe [06:31.06]And then I slipped up and I let you get close to me
毫无疑问 地板上有一封信 署着我的名字 [06:33.74]It was hard to not be openly when people spoke to me
没有人比我更爱你 亲爱的宝贝儿 信上如是写 [06:36.74]This was not the way I thought my life was supposed to be
当你读到这封信时 我可能已经不在人世 [06:39.72]Baby don't you see I had a blood transfusion that left me with HIV [06:43.47]
1997年你离开我时 我身体的一部分已飞往天堂 [06:44.54]Hoped the end exists for me since late in 1993
但我感谢上帝 至少让我明白爱是什么 [06:47.57]I died a virgin I wish I could've given myself to you
然而让我心碎的是 原来真爱是如此之痛 [06:50.57]I cried in the hospital because there was no one else but you
因为尽管我们从未有过实质的进展 你仍然是我心心念念的美好 [06:53.77]Promise that you'll meet me in paradise inevitably
正因为我如此爱你 所以不得不放手让你离开 [06:55.45] [06:56.89]No matter what I'll keep your love forever with me"
你让我否定了之前种种的疑虑 你让我想要相信你 [06:59.18]
我陷入其中 让你靠近我 [07:00.19]What happened for the rest of the day is still a blur
当人们同我说话时 要保守一个秘密真的太难 [07:03.05]But I remember wishing that I was dead instead of her
从来没有想过我的生活会变成这样 [07:05.93]She was buried on August 3rd
宝贝儿 你不知道 我曾因为输血而感染HIV病毒 [07:07.48]The story ends without a sequel [07:08.99]And now you know why Technique don't f**king fall in love with people
自1993年底开始 我便一直希望我的一生就这么结束 [07:12.17]Hold the person that you love closely if they're next to you
我带着纯洁之身离开人世 我多么希望能把自己交给你 [07:14.47]
在医院里 我哭泣着 因为除了你 我别无所想 [07:15.03]The one you love not the person that'll simply have sex with you
答应我 你会在天堂里见我 [07:18.28]Appreciate them to the fullest extent and then beyond [07:20.96]
无论如何 我会将你的爱永远保留在身边 [07:21.72]'Cause you never really know what you got until it's gone
