Snoop Dogg - Imagine [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Intro: Snoop Dogg]
Yo Doc what up my nigga
Snoop Dogg, it is what it is mane
This record is so motherfuckin' gangsta man
I think it's time for me and you to just, tone it down a bit
Come on...

[Dr. Dre]
Imagine it never happened
Imagine no rappin', imagine niggas trapped
Imagine it havin' action
Imagine how these niggas could be actin' if you never got this shit crackin
Imagine life's so hard
You can't imagine it's like livin' in the City of God
You feel me, imagine life on the yard
Or tryin' to get that dollar on some shitty ass job
Imagine Biggie with his son
Imagine Pac gettin' called pop by one
Imagine a mother struggling
Dealing with a system that don't give a fuck about who shot her son
Imagine life you can't win
When you get out of the ghetto and go right to the pen
When you get out to the pen you go right to the jenz
So if you get back to the streets you get right back in
Imagine Russell still struggling
No Def Jam it's another nigga hustlin'
And ain't no rocks on them fellas
Just rocks on them fellas, just try and keep it bubblin'
Imagine niggas just stuck
From the East to the West Coast, everybody fucked up
I can't imagine no less
But it don't take imagination to know niggas been bless with hip-hop

[Hook: D'Angelo]
Before we go, can you imagine?
Picture years, with you mind - can you imagine?
Paint a picture in the sky - can you imagine?
Call emergency I've been dreamin' all my life, all my life

[Snoop Dogg]
Can you imagine being lit up by some hot shells?
Imagine being tossed around and put in jail
Imagine life when you can't get from under
Imagine niggas at ya when you done fo'
Remember how they asked ya why ya run for and treat ya like a bitch
When they kick you in your dick and take your shit
We act like we hate to see you gun ho
But just imagine if the rappin' got the gun no but you already know
Imagine niggas in the LBC
Felt just like Snoop Dogg and D-R-E
And felt just like the niggas in the 2-1-3
Then imagine that's what's comin' when you fuckin' with me
Imagine you was up on top of this shit
Imagine if the bitches could stay off this dick
I mean imagine we said fuck this shit
Imagine if my niggas got together and tow up this bitch, yeah
You can't imagine growin' up in the jaildome
Happy just to be alive' watching all your people run
Would you imagine growin' up to sell
Your 50 million records world wide or fuckin' of somebody's son
Imagine if these niggas never saw a color
Would it be peaceful in them streets where niggas kill each other
All the drunk fool gets pissed on balls
He fuckin' off my niggas, they gone murder us all
Imagine that

[Hook] - 2X

[Outro]
"In the name of Allah, in the name of God
The benificiant, the merciful - the one God to whom all praises due Regardless of land, labor, or title
No matter what name you call God by whenever life seems hard
Everybody know that you must talk to God"
