They assured me I was guilty but I commited no crime
他们强加给我莫须有的罪名
They said confessions bring lenience so they put me on the line
他们把我逮捕起来并告诉我“坦白从宽，抗拒从严”
So I protest the massacres at the Tiananmen Square
于是我抗议天安门大屠杀
My friends said yo, stay away man, you better not go fucking back there
这哥们儿说，嘿，滚蛋，你别他妈旧事重提
They wouldn’t let me write about my opinions about the state
他们不让我写下对这国家的意见
And freedom of expression they would never tolerate
他们永远不能容忍言论自由
And the military secrets that I never did steal
可我从没偷取军事机密
I didn’t start no violence,and there was nobody that I killed
也没有任何人挂掉，我根本没有动粗
So I have a clear account of all the abuses of power
于是我对滥用职权有了个清楚的认识
And the memories of my homeland have now gone sour
关于我家乡的记忆早已变质
And I only got one weapon, its so plain for me to see
我只剩下一个开诚布公的武器
My only weapon I call.. poetry
这唯一的武器叫做.. 诗歌
And I don’t even know why
我根本不知道为什么
The truth seems like a lie
真相看起来像个谎言
In my cell there is no sky
我的号子里暗无天日
When I was arrested in Shanghai
我在上海被捕 了
Into wealth and priveledge, huh, I was not born
不愿投身财富和政治
But a devotion to freedom and liberty, I was sworn
而我发誓献身于自由和和平
So every emotion is studdied, watched and controlled
蹂躏，监视，控制我的所有情感
Who gets paid, who gets disciplined, who gets rolled
那些安排所有纪律，付出和条款的人
A transmitter beams my coordinates anywhere on earth
把我的坐标用无线电报发射到地球上任何地方
And radio waves, surveilance, satellite burst
不管是收音机电波，无线监控系统，或是爆裂卫星
Open up your skull and let some knowledge come in
打开你们的头盖骨接受一点儿知识
Crack open the cranium and let awareness begin…….
把脑子扒开让你们的意识苏醒
And I don’t even know why
我根本不知道为什么
The truth seems like a lie
真相看起来像个谎言
In my cell there is no sky
我的号子里暗无天日
When I was arrested in Shanghai
我在上海被捕了
