If man is the father
Then son is the center of the earth
In the middle of the universe
Then why, is this verse
Coming six times rehearsed?
Don’t freestyle much,
But I write ’em like such (word)
Amongst the themes controlled by the screens
What does it all mean?
All this shit I’m seeing
Human beings screaming vocal javelins
Sign of a local nigga unravelling
My wanderin’ got my ass wonderin’
Where Christ is in all this crisis
Hating Satan never knew what nice is
Check the papers while I bet on Isis
More than your eye can see and ears can hear
Year by year all the sense disappears
Nonsense perseveres prayers laced with fear
Beware: two triple 0 is near

It might feel good
It might sound a little somethin’
But damn the game if it don’t mean nothin’
What is game?
Who got game?
Where’s the game in life?
Behind the game
Behind the game
I got game
She’s got game
We got game
They got game
He got game
It might feel good
It might sound a little somethin’
But fuck the game if it ain’t saying nothin’

Damn!
Was it somethin’ I said?
Pretend you don’t see
So you turn your head
Race scandalous shadow
Does it matter?
Thought of reparations
Got us playing with the population
Nothing to lose
Everything to prove
People use, even murders excused
White men in suits don’t have to jump
Still a thousand ‘n one ways to lose with the shoes
God takes care of old folks and fools
While the Devil takes care of making all the rules
Folks don’t even own themselves
Paying mental rent to corporate presidents
One out of one million residents
Being dissident who ain’t kissing it
The politics of chains and whips
Got the six missing chips
And all the championships
What’s love got to do with what you got?
Don’t let a win get to your head
Or a loss to your heart
Nonsense perseveres prayers laced with fear
Beware: two triple 0 is near

It might feel good
It might sound a little somethin’
But damn the game if it don’t mean nothin’
What is game?
Who got game?
Where’s the game in life?
Behind the game
Behind the game
I got game
She’s got game
We got game
They got game
He got game
It might feel good
It might sound a little somethin’
But fuck the game if it ain’t saying nothin’

Yeah, that’s right
Everybody got game
And we just here to let y’all know
That P.E. is in full effect
From right now until the year 2000
Hey, yo, my man, sing it

There’s something happening, yeah (Yeah, yeah!)
What it is ain’t exactly clear
There’s a man with a gun over there (Yeah, that’s right. Haha!)
Tellin’ me I got to beware
It’s time we stop, children, what’s that sound?
Everybody look what’s going down

Hey, yo, I don’t think they heard you, Steven
Kick it to ’em again one more time

It’s time we stop, children, what’s that sound?
Everybody look what’s going down

That’s right, boy
P.E. in full effect, boy
Until the year 2000, yo!
Stop, look, what’s that sound
Everybody knows what’s going down
Stop, look, what’s that sound
Everybody knows what’s going down
Hey, yo, these are some serious times
That we livin’ in, G
And the New World Order is about to begin
You know what I’m sayin’?
Now the question is…
Are you ready for the real revolution?
Which is the evolution of the mind
If you seek, then you shall find
That we all come from the divine
You dig what I’m saying?
Now if you take heed to the words of wisdom
That are written on the walls of life
Then universally we will stand
And divided we will fall
‘Cause love conquers all
You understand what I’m sayin’?
This is a call to all you sleeping souls
Wake up! Take control of your own cycle
And be on the lookout for the spirit sniper
Trying to steal your life
You know what I’m saying’?
Look with-inside yourself for peace
Give thanks, live life, and release
You dig me?
You got me?

Prevod pesme

On je dobar igrač

Ako čovek je otac
Onda je sin centar sveta
usred svemira
Zašto se onda ova strofa na probi
šest puta ponavlja?
Ne bavim se mnogo slobodnim stilom
ali tako ih pišem (reč)
Među đavolima, pod kontrolom paravana
Šta sve to znači?
Sva ova sranja koja vidim
Ljudska bića bacaju vokalna koplja
Znaci lokalnog crnje otkrivaju moje sumnje
Sad se pitam gde je Hrist u celoj ovoj krizi
Satanu mrzim, nikad nije znao šta je ljubaznost
Provera papira dok se ja kladim na IziduViše nego što tvoje oči vide i uši čuju
Godinu za godinom, nestaje sav smisao
Glupost istrajava, molitve strahom začinjene
Pazite se: 2000. bliži se

Možda je dobar osećaj
Možda zvuči kao da je to nešto
Ali j.. š igru ako ništa ne znači
Šta je igra?
Ko dobro igra?
Gde je ta igra u životu?
Zaostajemo
Zaostajemo
Ja sam dobar
Ona je dobra
Mi smo dobri
Oni su dobri
On je dobar
Možda je osećaj dobar
Možda zvuči kao da je to nešto
ali j..š igru ako nema pouku

Dođavola!
Da li sam nešto pogrešno rekao?
Praviš se da ne vidiš
Pa glavu okreneš
Juriš skandaloznu senku
Zar je važno?
Pomisao na reparacije
naterala nas je da se igramo sa populacijom
Nemamo ništa da izgubimo
a moramo mnogo da pokažemo
Ljudi iskorišćavaju, čak i ubistvo je opravdano
Belci u odelima ne moraju skakati
Pa ipak, hiljadu je i jedan način da se izgubi
Bog brine o starima i budalama
Dok đavo samo vodi računa o pravilima
Ljudi čak ne vladaju ni sami sobom
Plaćaju mentalnu rentu predsednicima korporacija
Jedan od million rezidenata
je disident koji se na to ne pali
Politika lanaca i bičeva
Dobila je šest miliona čipova
I sva prvenstva
Nemoj da ti pobeda u glavu udari
ili gubitak srce pogodi
Glupost istrajava, molitve strahom začinjene
Pazite se: 2000. bliži se

Možda je dobar osećaj
Možda zvuči kao da je to nešto
Ali j.. š igru ako ništa ne znači
Šta je igra?
Ko dobro igra?
Gde je ta igra u životu?
Zaostajemo
Zaostajemo
Ja sam dobar
Ona je dobra
Mi smo dobri
Oni su dobri
On je dobar
Možda je osećaj dobar
Možda zvuči kao da je to nešto
ali j..š igru ako nema pouku

Da, tako je
Svi su dobri u tome
A mi smo samo ovde da vam svima stavimo na znanje
Da je P.E. u punoj snazi
od ovog trenutka do 2000. godine
Hej, jo, druže, pevaj

Nešto se događa, da (Da, da!)
Šta je to, nije sasvim jasno
Tamo je čovek sa pištoljem (Da, tako je. Haha!)
Govori mi da moram da se pazim
Vreme je da prestanemo, deco, šta se to čuje?
Ljudi, gledajte šta se dešava

Hej, čini mi se da te nisu čuli, Stivene
Serviraj im to još jednom

Vreme je da prestanemo, deco, šta se to čuje?
Ljudi, gledajte šta se dešava

Tako je dečko
P.E. je u punoj snazi
do 2000. godine!
Stani, vidi, šta se to čuje
Svi znaju šta se dešava
Hej, ovo su ozbiljna vremena
u kojima živimo
I novi svetski poredak nastupa
Razumeš šta ti govorim?
Sad je pitanje…
Da li ste spremni za pravu revoluciju?
Koja je evolucija uma
Traži, traži pa ćeš naći
da svi potičemo od božanstava
Kapiraš šta pričam?
Sad, ako obratite pažnju na reči mudrosti
ispisane na zidovima života
Onda ćemo zajedno uspeti
a podeljeni propasti
Jer ljubav pobeđuje sve
Razumeš šta ti govorim?
Ovo je poziv za sve vas uspavane duše
Probudite se! Preuzmite kontrolu nad sopstvenim ciklusom
I pazite na duhovni snajper
Što pokušava da vam oduzme život
Razumeš šta ti govorim?
U samom sebi potraži mir
Zahvali se, živi život, i oslobodi se
Kapiraš?
Razumeš?
