Lyrics & Translation
English
[Pharrell & DJ Drama:]
I mean, you know what it is. You see it, man
I was inspired by Slick Rick, you know? Like, he used to just come on TV and just shit on niggas real quick. Like... just shit, like, you know? And just wave his fingers around the world and call us "crumbs" and shit
I was hurt, stunned, astounded, amazed, and dazed, and confused as a child when the nigga did the "Young World" video, the "Hey Young World" shit. That shit changed my life. So, you know, when you see me rolling around here, you know, looking like Slick Rick, you know where the fuck it's coming from. You know what I'm saying?
So, for me, I wanted to, you know-I wanted to have a conversation to all my fans, you know what I'm saying, that's on the water in the hood, doing what they do, on that grind every day, 'cause I know that-I know what that is, you know what I'm saying? (Uh-huh) And who's the grimiest nigga in the street? (Uh-huh) You know what I mean? (Uh-huh) DJ Drama (Ill!)
And especial-I mean, it's my first mixtape and shit, know what I mean? There's more to come, so, we 'gon do what it is we gotta do.

The Prequal (traducción LyricVerse Team)
O sea, sabes lo que es. Lo ves, hombre
Me inspiró Slick Rick, ¿sabes? Como, él solía salir en la tele y simplemente cagar a los negros bien rápido. Como... simplemente cagar, ¿sabes? Y simplemente mover sus dedos por el mundo y llamarnos "migajas" y mierda
Estaba herido, aturdido, asombrado, maravillado, y aturdido, y confundido de niño cuando el negro hizo el video de "Young World", la mierda de "Hey Young World". Esa mierda me cambió la vida. Así que, sabes, cuando me veas por aquí, sabes, pareciendo Slick Rick, sabes de dónde carajo viene. ¿Sabes lo que digo?
Así que, para mí, quería, sabes, quería tener una conversación con todos mis fans, ¿sabes lo que digo?, que están en el agua en el barrio, haciendo lo suyo, en esa lucha diaria, porque sé que, sé lo que es eso, ¿sabes lo que digo? (Ajá) ¿Y quién es el negro más sucio de la calle? (Ajá) ¿Sabes a lo que me refiero? (Ajá) DJ Drama (¡Enfermo!)
Y especial-quiero decir, es mi primer mixtape y mierda, ¿sabes a lo que me refiero? Hay más por venir, así que, vamos a hacer lo que tenemos que hacer.
