Genius Translations
On & On (English Translation)
A kid who was lost from the start
At such a young age to face the world
You don’t know, only seeing how I smile on TV
And believing in everything that’s on the Internet
When kids used to make fun of me for having dark skin
Tasha’s Black Happiness comforted me
That’s when I started to know hip-hop
Because that was my only friend
When I opened my eyes, I transformed into a wrongdoer
The general masses can be scary
I turned into an idiot, hiding in my room
I speak the truth but reality is hidden with lies
My dad couldn’t sleep comfortably for a single day
I dared to blame God
All the faults that are left behind
If I die, will they know?
A bad accident
With my body woken from a nightmare
I clashed against the waves
Yeah, let’s go till the end
It goes on & on & on
My life‘s going on & on & on
I believe in myself
Cause everythings
Gonna be alright
It goes on & on & on
No matter what others say
This is me
Look at me
Cause I got something
Real in me
I let go of all the dream-like things
Instead of getting closer to my dreams
It was a cruel toll
Show me the money 3
Instead of making a name out of myself
I even got spit on by passerbys
Selling my tears? No
This is the real me
A scripted show?
This is the truth, no scripts
Now I know, people will believe what they want to believe
This world won’t turn its ear to my words
Everyone ignores me when I’m fallen down
Everyone pretends to know me when I’m standing alone
Salt rubbed into a wound, I even forgot my lyrics
The audience’s faces grow cold
My lips crack dry
Wait, I don’t want to fall down in front of those I love
When I wanna give up, the people who believe in me cheer for me
So I get up again and run
It goes on & on & on
My life‘s going on & on & on
I believe in myself
Cause everythings
Gonna be alright
It goes on & on & on
No matter what others say
This is me
Look at me
Cause I got something
Real in me
