Песня: History
[Mos Def:]
Kweli say, ‘Everybody act according to the season that they born in.'
Some are the night, some are the morning,
Some at noon,
Some in winter, some in June,
It's our code, it's the natural,
The science is a joke.
For me and mines, yours and you,
Let's move,
Tell you a little about mine, yo!

I was born in a season where the world was quiet and cold,
Celebrations were goin' on,
Some were happy, some were sad,
Some felt bad from bein' good,
Some felt good from bein' bad, feelings pass and change,
But they never leave, they here to stay.
Holiday, holiday, happy birthday,
Teenage love, the first cut run deep,
Soul on flesh, this is the Brooklyn streets,
Year of the Ox, seven and three,
M.D., the history, come on!
Every soul's got one of these, yes!
It's where you been and where you be,
And without understandin' you cannot proceed,
Complete, the start and the end,
Then it just go round again.
Again and again, brand new,
Again and again, so fresh,
Again and again, newness.

[Talib Kweli:]
I was born in the decade of decadence where they worship what they have,
Ford was president, do the math.
The war was ended when the Vietnamese stormed the city of Saigon,
We was like, ‘Bye! We was gone, let bygones be bygones',
I'm gone, spread love, it's the Brooklyn way,
Where they hug you with the firearm, try it on,
Like new school clothes, Black Star official,
Smash when we do a show, it's facts, no mystery,
I'm down with the crew like Mussolini in Italy,
I rock with the Roots like the Giving Tree,
Powerful, bigotry at work, me and my people got history,
These rappers dumb it down considerably.
We get it poppin' like a hit chorus,
The flow is historic, they can't get rid of us,
Ubiquitous, and we lay the law like Leviticus,
Ten years ago we made history, so they missin' us.

[Mos Def:]
And don't call it comeback in particular,
We will never blend into ephemera or
Fade into peripheral, transition of the minister's original,
We're broadcast clear without diminishin'.
Black Star so tight, burnin' soul temperatures and ministers
Alkalines, aminos and minerals essentials,
Served over Dilla time signatures,
It's miracle material, remember it's right now foreverness.

Перевод песни:
История

[Mos Def:]
Квели говорит: "Все ведут себя в соответствии со временем, когда они родились".
Некоторые ночью, некоторые утром,
Некоторые в полдень,
Некоторые зимой, а некоторые в июне,
Это наш код, это естественно,
Наука — ерунда.
Для меня и моих друзей, ваших и вас самих,..... [открыть перевод]
