- Mos Def Life In Marvelous Times 歌詞
- Mos Def
- Bright moments,
Bright moments always come back vivid（生動的）.
The 5th grade was epic（史詩）,citywide test pressure
The pre-crack era（時代）!
Mr.Schollmen ,what a prick,attitude matched his wardrobe,uglier then sin（罪惡）.
Now
This is Bed-Stuy（入眠的城市）82
9th floor,3tiny rooms one view.
Buck -town,Roosevelt house
They green grass is green
Our green grass is brown.
Shots rang my phone wasnt Touch-Tone（按鍵式的）
A heavy beef（抱怨）in the street
ET had to flee
Great heavens!Good grief （悲傷）!
Hungry bellies,bright gold on they teeth!
The windows on the Ave（歡迎）look like sad eyes
They fix their sharp gaze on you when you pass by
And if you dare to stand,you can see em cry
You can watch em scowl（怒容）,
Feel em prowl（圖謀不軌）
Wall and study every inch about you
Fast math measuring what you amount to
The laughter,the screams!
The numeral,the song of Psalms（讚歌）
The book of dreams!
Ends dont meet where the arms cant reach Mean streets,
Even when its free it aint cheap.
Ongoing saga（傳說）,terminal diagnosis（診斷）,
Basic survival requires super-heroics.
No space in the budget for a cape（斗篷）
Its when you gotta fly by night to save the day
Crash landings routinely（慣常地）happen
Some survive,others never rise from the ashes
Watching asphalt（瀝青）and observing the Sabbath（安息日）
Creates an ecstatic（入迷的）and there you have it
From teenage love,pray in tongues
Strange fruit,batty（古怪的）boots and native drums（鼓）
From hence I come
So here we go
Signs and wonders all along the road
Some lies open,some lies close
Some stretchers（擔架）role with no lies at all.
Some riders dont know what they riding for
Hands on（傳給下一代）the wheel and their mind is gone
Wherever you ride,whatever your name,
This raw （疼痛的）cold life is a beautiful thing
And we are alive in amazing times
Delicate （纖弱的） hearts,diabolical（殘忍的）minds
Revelations（啟示）,hatred,love and war.
And more and more and more and more
And more of less than ever before
Its just too much more for your mind to absorb
Its scary like hell,but theres no doubt
We cant be alive in no time but...now!
Its just another shot to the heart,
Its just a sure shot in the dark,
Its just another place in the stars
Wonders on every side,life in marvelous times
Life in marvelous times
Rock,everywhere
All over the world, you can feel it
All over world,feel it,
Spirit rise everywhere
Its just another shot to the heart,
Its just a sure shot in the dark,
Its just another place in the stars
Wonders on every side,life
in marvelous times
Life in marvelous times
