lyrics
Own Disasters
Litte Girl don’t run too fast don’t run
Little girl don’t run too fast
Cause if you’re gonna run too fast
you’re gonna forget the lies of your own disasters
Life is misleading
what the others said don’t make any sense
ooh listen inside
mountains are gonna be hard to climb
Time don’t make us bolder
sometimes even colder
but if you could see what we’ve seen
you would have forgotten the lies of your own disasters
*Mä tahon olla vaan uus
Anna mulle mahollisuus
Valo sano mulle tuu
Mä kuuntelen juu
Mul on hyvät juuret kun paksulla puun
Pysy paikalla
Ei kukaan voi vetää must
En oo tyhmä fool
Oo oma ittes et ketää muu
Hyvä energia tekee mut pirteeks
Huono energia tekee mut kipeeks
Täältä planeetalta on laitettu valot kii
Täääl on kaikki mennyt tosi kipeeks
Ihmiset sotii pimees
Ihmiset on muuttunut hirveiks
Niil on sarvet pääs
Sydän on muutuunut kiveks
Niiden liikkeet kun aaveet
Ei niillä oo pistettä tai maalii
Niin ne ei tiedä mitä ne oikeesti vaatii
Sillä tyhmä syö käärmeen kädestä
Ja ei tiedä minkälaista tautii saa siitä
Se on ku huume, vaikutus,
Kaikki on hienoo
Kato taustaa ja kaikki on kieroo
Sulta petetään totuus
Ainoaa mitä sä haluut
Sä annat vapauden
Niin sä oot silmän kans sovus
Et sä haluu elää raamejen sisällä ku taulu
Kiitä mua että maalan sulle kuvan
Koska sulla on ehkä elämä alkanut hautuu
Ootsä henges, elätsä?
Ootsä mukana sodas vai pelkäätsä?
Pysytsä hyväs vai vedätsä?
Sä oot ainoa joka tiedät minne oot menos
Mutta älä asu liian kauan ghetos!
Little girl don’t run too fast don’t run
little girl don’t run too fast
cause if you’re gonna run too fast
you’re gonna forget the lies
of your own disasters
* rap transation in English
In my prayers I beg to feel new
please give me a chance, life
the light is calling for me
I'm listening to the message it tweets
I've got roots as the thickest of trees
standing fixed in this place
no one, or nothing, can drain me
I'm not foolish or stupid indeed
Just tryin' to be me, nothin more, nothin less but me
Good energies give me strength
bad energies make me nautious
they've turned off all the lights on this planet
and everything had turned into darkness
Humans are battling in the shades
they've turned into vicious beings
they've grown horns
and hearts turned into stone and concrete
drifting movements – like ghosts
without any point or purpose I suppose
Guess that's why they don't know where to head at or aim for
Stupidity eats from that poisonous snake
Overlooking diseases they might catch from that mistake
It's like a drug – tranquilizers
Everything's beautiful.. till' one looks under the surface
All is crooked..
Society puts you down, smothering inspiration
if you don't obey rules, you're very soon to be aligned with the common eye
One doesn't wanna live inside of golden frames – like an ancient engraving
Still you'd might thank me for painting you a picture
Cause your life might've started slowly incubating
Are you alive, still breathing?
Do you choose to be a part of this battle
or are you leaving?
You're the only one who knows which road to take
Just listen to that inner voice – a reminder,
that there's space and freedom by choice to make,
there’s so many other roads to travel
through that ghetto, to another place
