Translation of Penitentiary blues by Erykah Badu

From:

Hereīs my philosophy
Livinī in a penitentiary
Brothers all on the corner
Tryinī to make believe
Turn around ainīt got no pot to pee
Make me mad when I see ya sad
Canīt stand to see ya hustle doin bad
But you canīt win when your will is weak
When youīre knocked on the ground

Evil, donīt you test me
Evil, you wonīt win

Oh why world
Why world
Do want me to be so mad yeah
So mad yeah
Oh why world
Why world
Do you want me to be so mad yeah
So mad yeah

Iīm tellinī you the truth
I hope Iīm not being too cruel
Since you ainīt playing by the rules
Iīm ībout to kick you off your stool

Evil, donīt you test me
Evil, you wonīt win

Oh why world
Why world
Do want me to be so mad yeah
So mad yeah
Oh why world
Why world
Do you want me to be so mad yeah
Say why

I am a warrior princess
I have come from the other sun
Gather all of your members
Unite them as one
Move together in harmony
Build a bridge
Now destroy a bridge
Eliminate your weakness
Conquer evil, the demon
And live forever together

Oh why canīt we get along and
Take all the funky tones
And make up a funky song
That be bangin on and on
Make me mad when I see ya sad
With the same look ya momma had
But ya canīt win when your will is weak
But ya get out ya seat
Oh why Why Why world
Do you want me to be so mad
So mad yeah
Why in the world
Why world do you want me to be so mad yeah
So mad yeah
Why in the world
Why world do you want me to be so mad yeah

So mad yeah
Why make me, make me, make me, make me, make me so mad
