Hey God, I'm just a little man got a wife and family
上帝，我只是一個擁有妻子和家庭的平凡男子
But I almost lost the house
但我幾乎要失去了這間房子
Yeah, I bought into the dream
是的我買下了一個夢想
We're barely holdin' on, when I'm in way to deep
身陷泥沼 我們僅能勉強度日
We're two paychecks away from living out on the streets
靠著雙薪避免露宿街頭
She's a workin' single mom, like a Saint she doesn't complain
她是個努力工作的單親媽媽，像個聖人從不抱怨
She never says a word, but she thinks that she's to blame
她不說一語，她認為這是自己的錯
Her son just got convicted, he blew some punk away
她的兒子剛被定罪，因他殺了某個無賴
She did her best to raise him, but the world got in the way
她盡她一切努力去拯救他，但還是無法改變這世界
Hey God - Tell me what the hell is going on
上帝，告訴我到底發生了什麼事
Seems like all the good shits gone
像是一切美好事物都離去
It keeps on getting harder hanging on
已經越來越難撐下去
Hey God, there's nights you know I want to scream
上帝，這些夜來你知道我多想大叫
These days you've even harder to believe
這些天禰越來越難去相信
I know how busy you must be, but Hey God...
我知道禰一定很忙錄，但上帝
Do you ever think about me
我是否曾得到過你的關心
Born into the ghetto in 1991, just a happy child
生在1991的貧民區，只是個單純的小孩
Playing beneath the summer sun
玩耍於夏天的陽光下
A vacant lot's his playground, by 12 he's got a gun
空地是他的遊樂場，12歲時他得到了一把槍
The odds are bet against him, junior don't make 21
機會在跟他對賭，賭他青年活不過21
Hey God - Tell me what the hell is going on
上帝，告訴我到底發生了什麼事
Seems like all the good shits gone
像是一切美好事物都離去
It keeps on getting harder hanging on

These days you've even harder to believe

Do you ever think about me
我是否曾得到過你的關心
I'd get down on my knees 我已經屈服於禰
I'm going to try this thing you way
我正遵從禰的教誨
Seen a dying man too proud to beg spit on his own grave
看著一個將死之人在他的葬身處仍不屑乞求
Was he too gone to save?
他不值得被拯救嗎
Did you even know his name?
至少禰知道他的名字嗎
Are you the one to blame, I got something to say
禰該被責備嗎，我現在只想說
Hey God - Tell me what the hell is going on
上帝，告訴我到底發生了什麼事
Seems like all the good shits gone
像是一切美好事物都離去

歌詞翻譯有錯請指教，翻譯這件事情真的是很深的一門學問，
尤其是歌詞，要怎麼樣把意境翻出來一直都是我的一大考驗，
所以我比較喜歡去看原文，因為語言是用心去感受的。
