Dice Raw - In the Heart [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Hook]
In the heart of the city where we were raised
Can't be afraid have to be brave can't show fear
Or emotion
Show nothing

[Verse]
I hated school I hated rules
Hated all my teachers, hated all my principals
Well not all, I guess one didn't try to play me
She thought I was smart I guess she was going to save me
But when you try to save the world it makes you crazy
That's why I don't blame her for giving up
Especially on a nigga that clearly just doesn't give a fuck
Cause in my heart I already knew my fate would precede my lifestyle
And that I might die behind a gate
Because a life of crime only takes you two places
Yeah two places where you don't need no suitcases
Looking back at it moving in a few phases
It's hard to pinpoint life in these confusing ages
When childhood stops and manhood beings
Child born in the wild smiles all pretend
If a child of the wild smiles just to draw you in

[Hook]

[Verse 2]
Show no fear waiting for your ass to jump
Carry my gun everywhere like it's my asthma pump
But the only difference is it takes your breath away
So my advice is that you should walk away
And if there's no compliance
Well there's really nothing left to say
It's crazy how much hatred
We have for one another
When I buy a gun I buy it for my brother
Not as a gift but incase one of my brothers wanna
Start actin a little niggerish in a disrespectful manner
Well then I got the hammer to hit him with
Cause you can't show weakness
When you in the guerrillasness
Is this the jungle, or the neighborhood that I grew up in
If it's a jungle, pass the ammo get to bustin
I'm sure it's planned by someone who finds it interustin'
My brain, my heart
Inside inner-wrestling
My brain has my heart inside the full-nelson

[Hook]

[Verse 3]
I'm a piece of shit and I know it
It's hard to change and outgrow it
It's hard to deal with my frustrations
When I feel it I show it
Give me a chance and I'll blow it
Low and behold is my crutch
Caught in-between making a difference and not giving a fuck
I'm at [??] in a pool with a [[crayon??]] on both arms
Tired of playing a fool blind in search of shelter from harm
I'm a flower surrounded by piece of weeds on the lawn
Allergic to the rays of the Sun, but I'm leaving at dawn
I'm gone, leaving behind all the pressure and pain
All the aggression and oppression that I try to withstand
All the negative thinking that's leaving a void in my brain
All the liquor, all the weed wet pills and the cain
I'm profane and strange accept it and love me the same
I'm a work of imperfection from the vessel I came
Easy for me to play it out but it's hard to explain
It's hard making out the line between my pride and my shame
