[R Kelly]
Dear God, bring our P-O-Ws home
And our brothers on lockdown, home
AMEN.
[R Kelly]
Whatever happen Lord, dont pass me by
Cause whenever I did wrong it was ya name I cried
I heard you forgave over and over again
But when I found out I love you, you became ammune to my sins
Laid wide awake in da middle of my sleep (I see dead people)
And sometimes it’s me Lord
I never wanted to be a thug father
I only wanted to be a son of a father
That’s how it sounds inside, worse than da war in Iraq, when it’s me against I
I gave up da weed and somehow Im still high
Three years still seein’ them three guys Lord (Whoo)
Sometimes I dont know what you want from me, but I do know you know what I want from you
(Give it to me)
(Come on) Take away this Hennessey, take away me runnin’ da streets
Stop people from rapin’ me, take away all this jealously and prejudicy
Lord you said it was better place, I grew up around pimps, hustlers, hoes and project gates
Its HARD TO BELIEVE in what I cant see
I got to get this money and feed my family
[Jay-Z]
Whatever in me guides my life, dear Lord Dont Let Me Die tonight
But if I shall before I wake, what shall I say
Its been a good run from hoodlum to outin’ da states
How could one who made so much foul mistakes, still be allowed to have a smile on my face
How whatever da case Im glad it wasnt murder, in a town you never heard of
From a nickel plated burner
Now my life straight like a perm, tried to take da spot I earn
Muthafucka better learn
[Chorus]
(Its HOV) Back blocked on everybody laptop
(KELL) Hit niggas from da shower, hold a note like da guy who said da British is comin’
(HOV) Oh yeah da niggas is comin get out ya good dishes or somethin’ like its Thanksgiving
(KELL) And non other than da «R» and without further a due like Freddy get ready
[R Kelly & Jay-Z]
When Im gone and my casket closed.
[Jay-Z]
Whatever in me guides my life, dear Lord Dont Let Me Die tonight
But if I shall before I wake, I’d accept my fate
I did what I did my heart was in da right place (Ohhh)
I guess so I can live it put food on my plate
You must still love me not to let it in by three that day
Well whatever da case Im glad it wasnt murder, in a town you never heard of
From a nickel plated burner
I guess Im not finished wit my journey, please forgive me for my sins
Shit Im still tryna learn me
[Chorus]
(HOV) From da back block on everybody laptop
(KELL) Hit niggas from da shower, hold a note like da guy who said da British was comin’
(HOV) Oh yeah da niggas is comin get out ya good dishes or somethin’ like its Thanksgiving
(KELL) And non other than da «R» and without further a due like Freddy get ready
[Bridge]
[(R Kelly) Jay-Z]
Many men (Whoo) have come and gone in these streets (Feel Me)
Walked alone in these streets (Ohhh) waitin’ to hear from you (Come on Lord)
Oh Lord,(Whoo)wrap your arms (Wrap your arms around us God)around da hood
(Lift every peace from war, bring our soldiers home, Let us pray)

The Beatles перевод Don t Let Me Down
НЕ ДАЙ ПРОПАСТЬ
(эквиритм-перевод)
Не дай пропасть,
Не дай пропасть.
Не дай пропасть,
Не дай пропасть.
Никто меня не любит как она,
Лишь она, да, она.
Никто так не полюбит как она,
Лишь она, да, она.
Не дай пропасть,
Не дай пропасть.
Не дай пропасть,
Не дай пропасть.
Так влюблён в первый раз я,
Наконец тот миг настал.
Лишь бы знать, что не напрасно,
Лишь бы знать, что навсегда.
Не дай пропасть,
Не дай пропасть.
Не дай пропасть,
Не дай пропасть.
С ней с первой встречи стало хорошо мне,
О, лишь с ней мне так хорошо.
И значит с ней лишь будет хорошо мне,
О, лишь с ней мне так хорошо.
Не дай пропасть,
Эй, не дай пропасть.
Не дай пропасть,
Не дай пропасть.
The Beatles DON’T LET ME DOWN (Lennon/McCartney)
Сингл
GET BACK сторона «Б» выпуск 15.04.1969г.
Don’t let me down
Hey, don’t let me down
Don’t let me down
Don’t let me down
Nobody ever loved me like she does
Oo she does, yes she does
And if somebody loved me like she do me
Oo she do me, you she does
Don’t let me down
Hey, don’t let me down
Don’t let me down
Don’t let me down
I’m in love for the first time
Don’t you know it’s gonna last
It’s a love that lasts forever
It’s a love that had no past
Don’t let me down
Hey, don’t let me down
Don’t let me down
Don’t let me down
And from the first time that she really done me
Oo she done me, she done me good
I guess nobody ever really done me
Oo she done me, she done me good
Don’t let me down
Hey, don’t let me down
Don’t let me down
Don’t let me down
DON’T LET ME DOWN
HE ПОДВЕДИ МЕНЯ
(JOHN LENNON/PAUL McCARTNEY)
Записана 28 января 1969г.
Пол Маккартни: «Это был очень напряженный период. Джон встречался с Йоко, он пристрастился к героину, в результате чего обострились все его паранойи. Он ставил себя в довольно трудное положение. Думаю, насколько сильно это его заводило и забавляло, настолько же сильно и пугало. Поэтому «Don’t Let Me Down» была искренней просьбой. Он словно говорил Йоко: «Я выхожу за рамки приличия, выставляю напоказ свою ранимость, поэтому ты не должна меня подводить». Думаю, это был неподдельный крик о помощи. Хорошая песня».
