．個人感想．

這首歌 JAY-Z 跟 Eminem 探討的議題不太一樣

JAY-Z 主要是在講自己身為街頭出生的孩子

看不慣街頭文化被誤解的亂象這件事

Eminem 則是在講自己的音樂不被大眾主流價值觀接受的事情

「叛教者」一詞就在這兩者間有了類似的意義

就是「非主流價值觀認可之人」

這是我第一次翻譯 JAY-Z 的歌曲

我很喜歡他的敘事方式

沒有華麗的押韻技巧或是複雜的文字遊戲

就是很生動地描述事件的發生

尤其是第二段講述自己青少年時期販毒維生的經歷

雖然語調冷靜平淡

但卻可以很深刻地從文字中感受到他的真情留露

特別是這兩句

「Could not stress to me, I wasn't grown

'Specially on nights I brought somethin' home to quiet the stomach rumblings」

完全可以讓聽者想像一個無助的孩童為求溫飽不擇手段的畫面

真的讓人很揪心

又讓人不禁開始思考

憑什麼同住在一個地球上的人類

就因為生長環境與條件不同

成長過程就有的可以過的順遂、幸福、美滿

有的卻只能顛頗、無助、艱辛

而 Eminem 的部分我同樣也是比較喜歡第二段的部分

刺激了一堆宗教信徒

類似於「The Way I Am」

表達「既然你們認為我是個叛教者，那我就要當最叛教的那個」這種信念

真的很有 Eminem 一如既往的霸氣

另外 我還特別喜歡這句

「What did I do? I'm just a kid from the gutter makin' his butter off these bloodsuckers」

扣回 JAY-Z 的主題

再跟自己想表達的事情結合

再次強調資本主義家與街頭人的差異

前者不斷打壓、醜化後者

而後者無力也無權反抗

求生存是他們唯一的人生目標

而對於 Eminem

做自己喜歡的音樂也是這麼一回事

評論家一再抨擊你的作品

儘管你只是希望自己的作品能夠浮上檯面

甚至不奢求眾人都喜愛

但就是會有人擋在這路上

有時也不為什麼

就只是因為他們可以

然而這樣的生態經歷了時光的流動也未曾變過

想想也是滿可悲的

．Lyrics 歌詞．

Motherfuckers say that I'm foolish, I only talk about jewels

那群混帳說我是個笨蛋，只懂得談論金銀財寶

Do you fools listen to music

你們這些白痴真的有認真聽歌嗎

Or do you just skim through it?

還是你們就只是大致聽過而已？

See, I'm influenced by the ghetto you ruined

看啊，我深受那個被你們鄙夷的街頭文化所影響

The same dude you gave nothin'

作為一個從未受到外部援助的人

I made somethin' doin' what I do through and through

我仍靠著我現在做的事情撐過了這一切

And I give you the news with a twist

我表達的事情可能跟你接收到的不太一樣

It's just his ghetto point of view

畢竟我是真的生活在街頭中的人

The renegade, you been afraid I penetrate pop culture

我是個叛教者，你們一再擔憂我會滲透進流行文化

Bring 'em a lot closer to the block where they pop toasters

怕我會帶領世人一步步走近貧民烤吐司的街頭

And they live with they moms

他們都和媽媽一起住

Got dropped roadsters

偷了輛跑車

From botched robberies, niggas crouched over

那是場拙劣的搶劫，黑人兄弟不得已被迫蹲了下來

Mami's knocked up 'cause she wasn't watched over

有個女孩懷孕了，因為她母親沒時間關照她

Knocked down by some clown

就有個小丑趁機上了她

When child support knocked,

而當兒童福利機構找上門時

"No, he's not around"

她只能回覆：「不，孩子的父親不在」

Now, how that sound to ya? Jot it down

現在，這一切聽起來如何啊？記下來

I bring you through the ghetto without ridin' 'round

我不用實地探查的方式，就帶你走過了街頭

Hidin' down, duckin' strays from-

你得以不用戰戰兢兢地躲避–

Frustrated youths stuck in they ways

那擋在青少年成長路上的挫折童年

Just read a magazine that fucked up my day

剛讀了本搞砸我一整天心情的雜誌

How you rate music that thugs with nothin' relate to it?

那些不曾經歷過幫派文化的人到底要怎麼評價幫派音樂？

I help them see they way through it, not you

我協助他們撐過這一切，但你沒有

Can't step in my pants, can't walk in my shoes

我們穿不好褲子，踏不進鞋子

Bet everything you worth

用你所有有價值的東西跟你打賭

You'll lose your tie and your shirt

你遲早會失去你的領帶和西裝

Since I'm in a position

自從我站在這個位置

To talk to these kids and they listen

就嘗試與這些孩子們對話，想讓他們聽清

I ain't no politician, but I'll kick it with 'em a minute

我不是政客，可要是提到他們，我恨不得盡早把他們處理掉

'Cause see, they call me a menace

因為你看，人們總稱我是個威脅

And if the shoe fits, I'll wear it

而要是這鞋子合我的腳的話，我就會穿

But if it don't, then y'all'll swallow the truth, grin and bear it

但要是不合的話，那你們就該接受這事實，並笑著接受

Now who's the king of these rude, ludicrous, lucrative lyrics?

現在誰是這些粗俗、可笑但又賺錢的歌詞的贏家啊？

Who could inherit the title, put the youth in hysterics-

誰有資格繼承這些頭銜，讓年輕人為他瘋狂–

Usin' his music to steer it, sharin' his views and his merits?

還把他的音樂作為人生哲學，傾聽著他的故事和價值觀啊？

But there's a huge interference

不過卻存在個巨大的阻礙

They're sayin' you shouldn't hear it

人們不斷阻止大眾聽他的音樂

Maybe it's hatred I spew, maybe it's food for the spirit

我吐出的或許是恨意，或許是精神糧食

Maybe it's beautiful music I made for you to just cherish

又或許只不過是我希望你們能夠珍惜的美妙的音樂

But I'm debated, disputed, hated and viewed in America

但我在美國卻不斷被排斥、議論、憎恨和過度檢視

As a motherfuckin' drug addict, like you didn't experiment?

視我為該死的毒蟲，好像你們不曾經歷過這些一樣？

Now, now, that's when you start to stare at who's in the mirror

現在，現在，你開始審視鏡中的自己

And see yourself as a kid again, and you get embarrassed

你看見了孩童時期的自己，你倍感蒙羞

And I got nothin' to do but make you look stupid as parents

我沒什麼要做的，只不過是想讓身為父母的你們難堪罷了

You fuckin' do-gooders

你們真是群可悲又幫倒忙的人

Too bad you couldn't do good at marriage

真可憐，你們大概連自己的婚姻都管理不好吧

And do you have any clue what I had to do to get here?

你們真的懂我為了達到今天的地位花了多少努力嗎？

I don't think you do

我不認為你們懂

So stay tuned and keep your ears glued to the stereo

所以給我張大你的耳朵，把耳朵貼近音響

'Cause here we go, he's Jigga-Jur-Jigga-Jih-Jigga
