[台肯] 升斗小民的心聲

[taiwanypd (taiwanypd)]

Hey God
J. Bon Jovi, R. Sambora

Hey God, I'm just a little man got a wife and family
上帝阿，我只是個無名小卒，有個老婆跟家庭
But I almost lost the house,yeah I bought into the dream
但我已經快要失去我的房子了，沒錯，我只能在夢中買下它...
We're barely holding on when I'm in way too deep
當我們身處絕望深淵時，生活已經越來越難把持...
We're two paychecks away from living out on the streets
兩個禮拜的薪水就足夠把我們逼上街頭

She's a workin'; single mom, like a Saint she don't complain
她是個努力工作的單親媽媽，像個聖人，從不抱怨
She never says a word, but she thinks that she's to blame
她從沒說過，但卻深深自責
Her son just got convicted, he blew some punk away
她兒子因為殺了個小混混被關進大牢
She did her best to raise him, but the world got in the way
她想盡力扶養他長大，但天卻不從人願...

Hey God - Tell me what the hell is going on
上帝阿，告訴我到底怎麼回事
Seems like all the good shit's gone
好日子似乎都已經消失了
It keeps on getting harder hanging on
生計越來越難以維持
Hey God, there's nights you know I want to scream
上帝阿，你可知道多少夜裡我想狂叫
These days you're even harder to believe
生活艱辛得讓人無法置信
I know how busy you must be, but hey God....
我知道您有多忙，但是，上帝啊...
Do you ever think about me
您是否曾經想過我

Born into ghetto in 1991, just a happy child
1991年他生在貧民區，就像其他快樂的孩子
Playing beneath the summer sun,A vacant lots'; his playground,
在夏日的陽光下玩耍，空屋是他的遊樂場
By 12 he's got a gun
12歲他拿到了把槍...
The odds are bet against him, junior don't make 21
他這樣的年輕人生存機率不大，也許無法活過21歲

I'd get down on my knees, I'm going to try this thing your way
我願意屈服並遵從你的教誨生活
Seen a dying man too proud to beg spit on his own grave
但是看到有人就算餓死也不願乞討、寧死也不屈服
Was he too gone to save?
這樣也算太過份而得不到救贖嗎？
Did you even know his name?
你知道他的存在嗎？
Are you the one to blame, I got something to say
是否是您該受責備呢？我有滿腹的怨言阿....

          黃河遠上，白雲一片，
          孤城萬仞山。
                    羌笛何須怨？
          楊柳春風，不度玉門關。
