Lyrics and translation Paky - Mama I’m a Criminal

Mama I’m a Criminal

Mama, I'm a criminal, mama, I'm a criminal
Mama, I'm a criminal, criminal, criminal
Mama, I'm a criminal
Criminale, criminale
Criminale, criminale
Ah, ah
Glory
Ah

Mama, I'm a criminal
Ragazzi freddi, sguardi persi dentro un tribunal
Il mio 'mbare dentro un bar, il fra' a mano armata
Rapina a volto coperto da casco integral
Vengo da dove il crimine prevale
Dove il furto è abituale, ti ci devi abituare
Dove ti guardan male quindicenni su una moto
Prima impennano e poi muoiono

Un coetaneo ha la pancia piena di ovuli, poi l'altro
Passa notte e giorno in mezzo ai tossici
Poi un altro studia, prova a finire la scuola
A casa nessuno lavora, sua madre c'ha un tumore
Mama, I'm a criminal, penso a come eliminarli
Spera che il tuo Dio ti salvi
Ricordati che chi è di strada non parla, agisce
E che pure la fama, la vita, finisce

Mama, I'm a criminal, mama, I'm a criminal
Mama, I'm a criminal, criminal, criminal
Mama, I'm a criminal
Criminale, criminale
Criminale, criminale
Ah, ah
Glory
Ah

Mama, I'm a criminal (criminal)
Ricordi quando stavamo quattro in un bilocale?
Avevo vergogna a invitare gli amici a mangiare
Pensa mo, solo tuo figlio riempie più locali
Frequenta altolocati, adesso ha due avvocati
Uno solo per musica, l'altro è per i reati
A volte la strada è l'unica occasione che hai davanti (davanti)
Meglio un giorno re che vivere da schiavi

Meglio trent'anni dentro che un giorno da infame
Meglio i soldi sporchi che morir di fame
Un caro mio arrestato il suo giorno natale
Mancherà ai suoi familiari
Il giorno di Natale spero abbia i domiciliari
Non faccio rap materiale
Lo faccio per chi vende il materiale
Per chi a scuola andava senza materiale
Per chi era senza soldi e il libro non può comprare (può comprare)
Mama, I'm a criminal

Mama, I'm a criminal, mama, I'm a criminal
Mama, I'm a criminal, criminal, criminal
Mama, I'm a criminal, mama, I'm a criminal
Mama, I'm a criminal, criminal, criminal

Mama I’m a Criminal

Mama, I am a criminal. Mama, I am a criminal.
Mama, I am a criminal, criminal, criminal.
Mama, I am a criminal.
Criminal, criminal.
Criminal, criminal.
Ha, ha.
Glory.
Ha.

Mama, I am a criminal.
Cold kids, lost looks in a courtroom.
My "mbare" inside a bar, my bro with a gun in his hand.
Robbery with face covered by a full-face helmet.
I come from where crime prevails.
Where theft is common, you have to get used to it.
Where fifteen-year-old guys on a motorcycle give you a dirty look.
First they do a wheelie and then they die.

A peer of mine has his belly full of ovules, then another
Spends day and night among addicts.
Then another guy studies, tries to finish school.
Nobody works at home, his mother has a tumor.
Mama, I am a criminal, I think about how to eliminate them.
Hope your God will save you.
Remember that those who are in the street do not talk, they act.
And that even fame, life, ends.

Mama, I am a criminal. Mama, I am a criminal.
Mama, I am a criminal, criminal, criminal.
Mama, I am a criminal.
Criminal, criminal.
Criminal, criminal.
Ha, ha.
Glory.
Ha.

Mama, I am a criminal (criminal).
Remember when we were four in a two-room apartment?
I was ashamed to invite friends over to eat.
Think now, your only son fills more places.
He meets with high-society people now has two lawyers.
One just for music, the other is for the crimes.
Sometimes the street is the only chance you have before you (before you).
Better to be a king for a day than to live as a slave.

Better to spend thirty years inside than a day as a coward.
Better dirty money than to die of hunger.
A dear friend of mine was arrested on his birthday.
His family will miss him.
On Christmas day I hope he gets house arrest.
I don't make rap that's just talk.
I do it for those who sell the material.
For those who went to school without materials.
For those who didn't have money and couldn't buy a book. (could buy)
Mama, I am a criminal.

Mama, I am a criminal. Mama, I am a criminal.
Mama, I am a criminal, criminal, criminal.
Mama, I am a criminal. Mama, I am a criminal.
Mama, I am a criminal, criminal, criminal.
