Lyrics
What if I’m selfish? What if I’m the reason behind it?
– E si mwen egoyis? E si mwen se rezon ki dèyè li?
What if I’m overprotective with family because of how mine is?
– E si mwen twò pwoteksyon ak fanmi paske nan ki jan mwen se?
What if I’m jealous?
– E si mwen jalouzi?
Maybe that’s what’s making me nervous
– Petèt se sa ki fè m nève
What if my effort of pullin’ you close are pushin’ you further?
– E si efò mwen pou rale ou fèmen ap pouse ou pi lwen?
What if I’m selfish?
– E si mwen egoyis?
What if the reason they call me “The Greatest”
– E si rezon yo rele m “Pi Gwo a”
Is also the reason that me and you livin’ on different pages?
– Se tou rezon ki fè mwen ak ou viv sou paj diferan?
What if I’m too much?
– E si mwen twò anpil?
What if I settled and I didn’t fight?
– E si mwen te rezoud epi mwen pa t ‘ goumen?
What if my fear of doin’ it wrong’s the reason I haven’t been doin’ it right?
– E si mwen pè fè li mal se rezon ki fè mwen pa te fè li dwat?
What if I’m selfish?
– E si mwen egoyis?
What if the kids just wanna be kids
– E si timoun yo jis vle yo dwe timoun
And don’t wanna live in and out of the news and chill
– Epi pa vle viv nan ak soti nan nouvèl la ak frèt
And don’t even wanna be rich?
– E pa menm vle rich?
And what if I’m so self-centred that I don’t even realise what I could miss?
– E si mwen tèlman egoyis ke mwen pa menm reyalize sa mwen ta ka rate?
And what if I’m, what if I’m fallin’ in the abyss?
– E si mwen, e si mwen tonbe nan gwo twou san fon an?
Maybe it’s— (What if I’m—)
– Petèt li nan – (sa ki Si mwen—)
Yeah
– Wi
Maybe it’s dark, maybe it’s day, maybe it’s too many nights in L.A.
– Petèt li fè nwa, petèt li se jou, petèt li se twòp nwit nan L. A.
Look at the house in Surrey and still, all of the feelings we hid in the Hills
– Gade kay La nan Surrey e toujou, tout santiman nou te kache nan Ti Mòn yo
Maybe it’s you, maybe it’s me, maybe the media or the provoking
– Petèt se ou, petèt se mwen, petèt medya yo oswa pwovoke a
Gave you my heart, I laid it bare, funny you went and you poked it
– Te ba ou kè m’, mwen mete l ‘ toutouni, komik ou te ale ak ou poked li
What if it’s better with me out the way? What if it’s better with me out the—
– E si li pi bon avè m ‘ soti nan fason an? E si li pi bon avè m soti nan—
Like, what if it’s better with me out the way?
– Tankou, sa ki si li se pi bon ak m ‘ soti nan fason an?
What if I’m poison? What if I’m cancer?
– E si mwen se pwazon? E si mwen se kansè?
What if I’m dangerous and I’m wild?
– E si mwen danjere e mwen sovaj?
Look in my eyes, you’re seein’ a child
– Gade nan je m, ou wè yon timoun
What if he’s broken? What if he’s scared?
– E si li kase? E si li pè?
What if he’s ostracised and vilified?
– E si li te ostracize ak vilifié?
See, peace is just an illusion
– Wè, lapè se jis yon ilizyon
Ain’t got a home, I live in confusion
– Pa gen yon kay, mwen ap viv nan konfizyon
What if I’m selfish?
– E si mwen egoyis?
Forever, forever, forever
– Pou tout tan, pou tout tan, pou tout tan
I manage the symptoms forever
– Mwen jere sentòm yo pou toutan
You can love how you want
– Ou ka renmen jan ou vle
I know to give is no loss
– Mwen konnen bay se pa gen okenn pèt
Can you settle for second
– Èske ou ka rezoud pou dezyèm
And let go of your idea of heaven?
– Epi kite lide ou nan syèl la ale?
I know it’s a lot
– Mwen konnen li se yon anpil
But it might be all that I’ve got
– Men li ta ka tout sa mwen te resevwa
I wanna throw myself in
– Mwen vle jete tèt mwen nan
Snap off the mask
– Retire mask la
I want a clown that sings
– Mwen vle yon payis ki chante
And a love that lasts
– Ak yon lanmou ki dire lontan
I wanna escape the wedding
– Mwen vle chape maryaj la
Go with you to the carriage
– Ale avèk ou nan cha a
I wanna give you my life
– Mwen vle ba ou lavi m
Or at least something to cherish
– Oswa omwen yon bagay pou nou pran swen
But what if I’m selfish?
– Men, e si m egoyis?
I done a lot of things I regret
– Mwen te fè anpil bagay mwen regrèt
Like announcin’ our split on a text
– Tankou anonse nou divize sou yon tèks
Don’t know why, but I still buy gifts for my ex
– Mwen pa konnen poukisa, men mwen toujou achte kado pou ansyen mwen
Watchin’ her stories to see if she checks
– Gade istwa li pou wè si li tcheke
I’m a mess, I don’t know if my head’s in the game
– Mwen se yon dezòd, mwen pa konnen si tèt mwen nan jwèt la
She told me don’t mention her name, I’m suggestin’ the same
– Li te di m pa mansyone non li, mwen sijere menm bagay la
I’ma get through the pain, wanna see the sunshine, gotta get through the rain
– Mwen pral jwenn nan doulè a, vle wè solèy la, gen jwenn nan lapli a
Bag full of trauma, I left on the train
– Sak plen ak chòk, mwen te kite nan tren an
I’m ashamed for the days that I said that I changed, I’m a cheat
– Mwen wont pou jou yo ke mwen te di ke mwen chanje, mwen se yon tricheur
Sat in a therapist chair cryin’ like a baby in the middle of a Harley Street
– Te chita nan yon chèz terapis kriye tankou yon ti bebe nan mitan Yon Lari Harley
Like I’m fightin’ this sickness that I can’t beat, I’m disloyal
– Tankou mwen ap goumen maladi sa a ke mwen pa ka bat, mwen se dezòd
And then I go mad, reflection tellin’ me I’m just like my dad
– Apre sa, mwen ale fou, refleksyon di m’ mwen jis tankou papa m’
And this white woman tellin’ me it ain’t so bad
– Ak fanm blan sa a di m ‘ li pa tèlman mal
Middle of my sentence she cut me off, like, “Sorry, David, we don’t have any more time
– Nan mitan fraz mwen li koupe m’, tankou, ” Dòmi, David, nou pa gen okenn tan plis
Your appointment till 4 and it’s 3:55″
– Randevou ou jiska 4 e li se 3:55″
Bruh, I feel like she wouldn’t even care if I died
– Bruh, mwen santi tankou li pa ta menm pran swen si mwen te mouri
Man, I tried all this therapy shit, man, I tried all this therapy shit
– Nonm sa a, mwen te eseye tout bagay sa a terapi kaka, nonm, mwen te eseye tout bagay sa a terapi kaka
Bruh, I know, wouldn’t even say I’m depressed
– Bruh, mwen konnen, pa ta menm di mwen deprime
But I’m low in the Grosvenor Casino in Edgware Road
– Men, mwen menm ki ba nan Grosvenor Kazino nan Edgware Wout
I’ve got too many sins to atone and a voice in my head, like
– Mwen te gen twò anpil peche pou ekspye ak yon vwa nan tèt mwen, tankou
At this point, like, at this point where you should’ve been rich, like
– Nan pwen sa a, tankou, nan pwen sa a kote ou ta dwe te rich, tankou
At this point where you should’ve had kids, like
– Nan pwen sa a kote ou ta dwe te gen timoun, tankou
At this point should’ve built you a life, like
– Nan pwen sa a ta dwe te bati ou yon lavi, tankou
Look around you, don’t you feel you’re behind? Like
– Gade alantou ou, ou pa santi ou dèyè? Tankou
Look around you, don’t you feel you’re behind? Like
– Gade alantou ou, ou pa santi ou dèyè? Tankou
Look around you, don’t you feel like, like
– Gade alantou ou, ou pa santi tankou, tankou
What if I never find love?
– E si mwen pa janm jwenn lanmou?
Don’t know if it’s scarier, the thought of us two together or bein’ alone
– Mwen pa konnen si li pi pè, panse a nou de ansanm oswa ke yo te pou kont li
I’m so used to bein’ alone
– Mwen tèlman itilize pou yo te pou kont li
What if I’m somebody nobody wants?
– E si mwen se yon moun pèsonn pa vle?
What if I’m damaged or what if I waited too long
– E si mwen domaje oswa e si mwen tann twò lontan
And have mould on me? What if I’m cold on me?
– Epi gen mwazi sou mwen? E si mwen frèt sou mwen?
What if I cut off the hand that I hold on me?
– E si mwen koupe men mwen kenbe sou mwen?
What if I’m rapidly spiralin’ and tired and jaded?
– E si mwen rapidman spiralin’ ak fatige ak jaded?
Or what if I’m faded? Or what if anxiety’s growin’ inside me
– Oswa si mwen ta vle chanje koulè? Oswa sa ki si enkyetid ap grandi andedan m’
That I might have left all my best years behind me?
– Ke mwen te ka kite tout pi bon ane mwen dèyè m’?
Or what if I’m scared as I touch twenty-seven
– Oswa si mwen pè jan mwen manyen ven-sèt
That you don’t appear in my idea of heaven?
– Ke ou pa parèt nan lide mwen nan syèl la?
Or what if I’m, what if I’m
– Oswa sa ki si mwen, sa ki si mwen
What if I’m selfish?
– E si mwen egoyis?
