Can't Knock The Hustle by JAY-Z
Lyrics & Translation
English
Ah shit, okay, okay, alright
Big man! You wanna make some big bucks, huh?
Let's see how tough you are
You know something about cocaine? Digame!
You kidding me or what man?
There's a bunch of Colombians coming in Friday – new guys
They said they got two keys for us, for openers
Pure cocaine, you tell 'em, capiche?
I want you to go over there
And if it is what they say it is, you buy it, you bring it back
You can do that you make five grand
Meet them at the Bodegas, noon Friday
You get the buy money then
Oh and chico, if anything happens to the buy money
Eh, pobrecito
JAY-Z's gonna stick your heads up your asses faster than a rabbit gets fucked
Bounce.. bounce, bounce, Jay-Z huh?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Roc-A-Fella y'all, ha ha
Bounce, bounce, bounce, Roc-A-Fella y'all
Check, check
Yo, I'm making short term goals when the weather folds
Just put away the leathers and put ice on the gold
Chilly with enough bail money to free a big Willie
High stakes, I got more at stake than Philly
Shopping sprees, cop in three
Deuce fever IS's fully loaded, ah, yes
Bouncing in the Lex Luger, tires smoke like Buddha
50 Gs to the crap shooter, niggas can't fade me
Chrome socks beaming
Through my peripheral I see you scheming
Stop dreaming, I leave your body steaming
Niggas is fiending, what's the meaning
I'm leaning on any nigga intervening
With the sound of my money machining (brr)
My cup runneth over with hundreds
I'm one of the best niggas that done it, six digits and running
Y'all niggas don't want it
I got the Godfather flow, the Don Juan DeMarco
Swear to God, don't get it fucked up
I'm taking out this time (yeah, yeah, what)
To give you a piece of my mind
('Cause you can't knock the hustle)
Who do you think you are?
Baby one day you'll be a star
Last seen out of state where I drop my sling
I'm deep in the South kicking up top game
Bouncing on the highway switching four lanes
Screaming through the sunroof, money ain't a thing
Your worst fear confirmed
Me and my fam roll tight like The Firm
Getting down for life, that's right, you better learn
Why play with fire, you burn
We get together like a choir, to acquire what we desire
We do dirt like worms, produce Gs like sperm
'Til legs spread like germs
I got extensive hoes with expensive clothes
And I sip fine wines and spit vintage flows
What y'all don't know?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, cause you can't knock the hustle
But until then lately, I'm the one who's crazy?
'Cause that's the way you're making me feel
('Cause you can't knock the hustle)
The way you make me feel
I'm just trying to get mine, I don't have the time
To knock the hustle for real
Yo, y'all niggas lunching, punching the clock
My function is to make much and lay back munching
Sipping Remy on the rocks, my crew something to watch
Nothing to stop, unstoppable
Scheme on the ice, I gotta hot your crew
I gotta, let you niggas know the time like Movado
My motto, stack rocks like Colorado
Waddle off the champagne, Cristals by the bottle
It's a damn shame what you're not though (who?) me
Slick like a gato, fucking Jay-Z
My pops knew exactly what he did when he made me
Tried to get a nut and he got a nut and what
Straight bananas; can a nigga see me
Got the US Open, advantage Jigga
Serve like Sampras, play fake rappers like a campus
Le Tigre, son you're too eager
You ain't having it? Good, me either
Let's get together and make this whole world believe us, huh
At my arraignment screaming
All us blacks got is sports and entertainment, until we even
Thieving, as long as I'm breathing
Can't knock the way a nigga eating, fuck you even!
I'm taking out this time
To give you a piece of my mind
Who do you think you are?
Baby one day you'll be a star
But until then lately, I'm the one who's crazy?
'Cause that's the way you're making me feel
I'm just trying to get mine, I don't have the time
To knock the hustle for real

Can't Knock The Hustle (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Ah shit, okay, okay, alright
¡Hombre grande! ¿Quieres ganar mucho dinero, eh?
Veamos qué tan rudo eres
¿Sabes algo de cocaína? ¡Dígame!
¿Me estás tomando el pelo o qué, hombre?
Hay un montón de colombianos que llegan el viernes – tipos nuevos
Dijeron que tienen dos kilos para nosotros, para empezar
Cocaína pura, diles, ¿capiche?
Quiero que vayas allá
Y si es lo que dicen que es, lo compras, lo traes de vuelta
Si haces eso ganas cinco mil
Reúnete con ellos en las Bodegas, viernes al mediodía
Recibes el dinero de la compra entonces
Oh y chico, si algo le pasa al dinero de la compra
Eh, pobrecito
JAY-Z les va a meter la cabeza por el culo más rápido de lo que un conejo es follado
Bounce.. bounce, bounce, ¿Jay-Z eh?
Sí, sí, sí, Roc-A-Fella ustedes, ja ja
Bounce, bounce, bounce, Roc-A-Fella ustedes
Check, check
Yo, estoy haciendo metas a corto plazo cuando el clima cambia
Solo guarda los cueros y pon hielo en el oro
Frío con suficiente dinero de fianza para liberar a un gran Willie
Altas apuestas, tengo más en juego que Philly
Compras compulsivas, policía en tres
Deuce fever IS's completamente cargado, ah, sí
Rebotando en el Lex Luger, los neumáticos echan humo como Buda
50 mil al jugador de dados, los negros no pueden conmigo
Calcetines cromados brillando
Por mi periferia te veo tramando
Deja de soñar, dejo tu cuerpo humeando
Los negros están anhelando, ¿cuál es el significado?
Me apoyo en cualquier negro que intervenga
Con el sonido de mi dinero haciendo (brr)
Mi copa rebosa de billetes de cien
Soy uno de los mejores negros que lo ha hecho, seis dígitos y contando
Ustedes negros no lo quieren
Tengo el flow del Padrino, el Don Juan DeMarco
Lo juro por Dios, no lo jodan
Me estoy tomando este tiempo (sí, sí, qué)
Para darte un pedazo de mi mente
('Porque no puedes criticar el ajetreo)
¿Quién te crees que eres?
Cariño, un día serás una estrella
Visto por última vez fuera del estado donde dejo mi negocio
Estoy en lo profundo del Sur montando un gran juego
Rebotando en la autopista cambiando cuatro carriles
Gritando por el techo solar, el dinero no es nada
Tu peor miedo confirmado
Mi familia y yo rodamos unidos como The Firm
Entregándonos de por vida, así es, mejor aprende
¿Por qué jugar con fuego? Te quemas
Nos juntamos como un coro, para adquirir lo que deseamos
Hacemos suciedad como gusanos, producimos Gs como esperma
Hasta que las piernas se abren como gérmenes
Tengo muchas putas con ropa cara
Y bebo vinos finos y escupo flows clásicos
¿Qué no saben ustedes?
Sí, sí, sí, sí, porque no puedes criticar el ajetreo
Pero hasta entonces últimamente, ¿soy yo el loco?
Porque así es como me haces sentir
('Porque no puedes criticar el ajetreo)
La forma en que me haces sentir
Solo estoy tratando de conseguir lo mío, no tengo tiempo
Para criticar el ajetreo de verdad
Yo, ustedes negros almorzando, fichando
Mi función es hacer mucho y relajarme comiendo
Bebiendo Remy con hielo, mi equipo algo para ver
Nada que detener, imparable
Planear sobre el hielo, tengo que calentar a tu equipo
Tengo que, hacerles saber la hora a ustedes negros como Movado
Mi lema, apilar rocas como Colorado
Caminar tambaleante por el champán, Cristals por la botella
Es una maldita pena lo que no eres (¿quién?) yo
Astuto como un gato, jodido Jay-Z
Mi padre supo exactamente lo que hizo cuando me hizo
Intentó correrse y se corrió y qué
Completamente locos; ¿puede un negro verme?
Tengo el US Open, ventaja Jigga
Sirvo como Sampras, juego con raperos falsos como un campus
Le Tigre, hijo, estás demasiado ansioso
¿No lo tienes? Bien, yo tampoco
Juntémonos y hagamos que todo el mundo nos crea, ¿eh?
En mi comparecencia gritando
Todo lo que tenemos los negros es deporte y entretenimiento, hasta que estemos a la par
Robando, mientras respire
No puedes criticar la forma en que un negro come, ¡que te jodan incluso!
Me estoy tomando este tiempo
Para darte un pedazo de mi mente
¿Quién te crees que eres?
Cariño, un día serás una estrella
Pero hasta entonces últimamente, ¿soy yo el loco?
Porque así es como me haces sentir
Solo estoy tratando de conseguir lo mío, no tengo tiempo
Para criticar el ajetreo de verdad
