Rica
We were in a race to grow up
– Nos tabata den un kareda pa krese
Yesterday, through today, ’til tomorrow
– Ayera, te awe, te mañan
But when the plant blew up
– Pero ora e planta a explota
A piece of shrapnel flew and slowed that part of you
– Un pida di metralla a bula i a baha e parti di bo
The doctors gave you until the end of the night
– E dòkternan a duna bo te fin di anochi.
But not ’til daylight (Not ’til daylight), not ’til daylight (Not ’til daylight)
– Pero no ‘te na lus di dia( no’ te na lus di dia), no ‘te na lus di dia (no’ te na lus di dia)
Time passes slower in the flicker of the hospital light
– E tempu ta pasa mas lante den e lus di e hòspital
I pray the race is worth the fight
– Mi ta resa pa e kareda ta bal la pena.
Made a fool of myself down on Tennessee Street

Tell me all the time not to worry

That picture on the wall you’re scared of looks just like you
– E potret riba e muraya ku bo tin miedu di dje ta parse bo
I wanna bleed, I wanna hurt the way that boys do
– Mi ke sangra, mi ke hasi daño na e manera ku e muchanan ta hasié
Maybe you’re right and we should stop watchin’ the news
– Kisas bo tin rason i nos mester stòp di mira e notisia
‘Cause, baby, I’ve never seen brown eyes look so blue
