I took my baby on a Saturday bang
Boy is that girl with you
Yes we're one and the same

Now I believe in miracles
And a miracle has happened tonight

But, if you're thinkin' about my baby
It don't matter if you're black or white

They print my message in the Saturday Sun
I had to tell them I ain't second to none

And I told about equality and it's true
Either you're wrong or you're right

But, if you're thinkin' about my baby
It don't matter if you're black or white

I am tired of this devil
I am tired of this stuff
I am tired of this business
Sew when the going gets rough
I ain't scared of your brother
I ain'ts scared of no sheets
I ain't scared of nobody
Girl when the goin' gets mean

Protection
For gangs, clubs, and nations
Causing grief in human relations
It's a turf war on a global scale
I'd rather hear both sides of the tale
See, it's not about races
Just places
Faces
Where your blood comes from
Is were your space is
I've seen the bright get duller
I'm not going to spend my life being a color

Don't tell me you agree with me
When I saw you kicking dirt in my eye

But, if you're thinkin' about my baby
It don't matter if you're black or white

I said if you're thinkin' of being my baby
It don't matter if you're black or white

I said if you're thinkin' of being my brother
It don't matter if you're black or white

Ooh, ooh
Yea, yea, yea now
Ooh, ooh
Yea, yea, yea now

It's black, it's white
It's tough for them to get by
It's black, it's white, (x3) whoo

...........................................
Я взял свою детку
На субботнюю вечеринку.
Парень, она с тобой?
Да, мы едины и неделимы!

Теперь я верю в чудеса,
И чудо
Свершилось этой ночью...

Но, если
Ты думаешь
О моей детке,
Не имеет значения,
Черный ты или белый...

Они пишут мое послание
Под субботним солнцем.
Я должен был заявить:
Я не непревзойденный...

И я поведал о равенстве,
Это правда,
Независимо от того, прав ты
Или нет.

Но, если
Ты думаешь
О моей детке,
Не имеет значения,
Черный ты или белый...

Я устал от этого зла,
Я устала от этого,
Я устал от этого дела...
И когда все переходит
Грань жестокости,
Я не боюсь
Твоего брата,
Ни одно дерьмо меня не испугает!
Я никого не боюсь,
Девочка, когда все сходит
К низости и подлости...

[l. T. B. Рэп]
Защита для
Банд, клубов
И наций,
Причина бед во
Всех отношениях людей.
Это борьба за сферы влияния
В мировых масштабах.
Я бы предпочел выслушать
Обе стороны.
Пойми, дело не в расе,
А в местах,
Лицах,
Откуда родом
Твоя кровь.
Именно там твое место.
Я видел, как угасал
Тот, кто был ярок...
Я не собираюсь прожить
Всю свою жизнь "цветным"!

[Майкл]
Не говори, будто согласен со мной,
Ведь я видел, как ты сбежал у меня на глазах...

Но, если
Ты думаешь о моей детке,
Не имеет значения, черный ты или белый...

Я сказал, если
Ты думаешь о том,
Чтобы стать моей деткой,
Не имеет значения, черная ты или белая...

Я сказал, если
Ты думаешь о том,
Чтобы стать моей деткой,
Не имеет значения,
Черная ты или белая...

О-о-о, о-о-о
Да, да, да!
О-о-о, о-о-о
Да, да, да!

Черный, белый,
Для тебя непросто
Быть приемлемым...
Черный, белый, ху!

Черный, белый,
Для тебя непросто
Быть приемлемым...
Черный, белый, ху!

...........................................
I took my baby
To the Saturday party.
Boy, is she with you?
Yes, we are one and indivisible!

Now I believe in miracles
And a miracle
It happened tonight ...

But if
You think
About my baby
Irrelevant,
Are you black or white ...

They write my message
Under the Sabbath sun.
I should have stated:
I am not unsurpassed ...

And I talked about equality,
It's true,
No matter you are right
Or not.

But if
You think
About my baby
Irrelevant,
Are you black or white ...

I'm tired of this evil
I'm tired of this,
I'm tired of this thing ...
And when everything goes over
The brink of cruelty
I'm not afraid
Your brother
No shit scares me!
I'm not afraid of anyone,
Girl when everything goes down
To baseness and meanness ...

[l. T. B. Rap]
Protection for
Gang clubs
And nations
The reason for the troubles is
All relationships of people.
This is a struggle for spheres of influence
On a global scale.
I'd rather listen
Both sides.
Understand it's not about race
And in places
Faces
Where are you from
Your blood.
This is where your place is.
I saw it fade away
The one who was bright ...
I'm not going to live
All his life in color!

[Michael]
Don't say you agree with me
After all, I saw how you fled before my eyes ...

But if
You think about my baby
It doesn't matter if you are black or white ...

I said if
You think about
To become my baby
It doesn't matter if you are black or white ...

I said if
You think about
To become my baby
Irrelevant,
Are you black or white ...

Oooh, oooh
Yes Yes Yes!
Oooh, oooh
Yes Yes Yes!

Black White,
Not easy for you
Be acceptable ...
Black, white, hu!

Black White,
Not easy for you
Be acceptable ...
Black, white, hu!
