ANTIFRAGILE – English Lyrics
Lyrics & Translation
[English]
Anti ti ti ti fragile fragile
Anti ti ti ti fragile
Anti ti ti ti fragile fragile
Antifragile antifragile
Riding over the trail of thorns, you made me boost up
Party packed with lies, they don’t even burn
So much talk behind my back, rivals I never knew I had
They all pray for the day I’m falling, onto their hands, I’mma jump in
Yes gimme that
Walk like a majestic lion, eyes glinting with so much desire
Pour more out, gasoline on fire, fly again, rising through the flames
Don’t forget my pointe shoes I left behind, what more must be said
Don’t underestimate the path I’ve walked
I go to ride till I die die
I’ll climb higher, top of the world I itched for
No biggie if I were to fall, I’m antifragile antifragile
Right now I’m on my way, toss away your fairy tale
Now you know my name
I’m antifragile antifragile
Anti ti ti ti fragile fragile
Anti ti ti ti fragile
Anti ti ti ti fragile fragile
Antifragile antifragile
“Lovey lovey lovey dovey dovey dovey”
Defining me however you’d like
I don't know what to say I can't feel it
Fervent attention, welcome, cute jealousy, go ahead
Stringed puppets, no thanks, with my song I’ll build my future
Yes gimme that
Walk like a majestic lion, eyes glinting with so much desire
Pour more out, gasoline on fire, fly again, rising through the flames
Don’t forget my pointe shoes I left behind, what more must be said
Don’t underestimate the path I’ve walked
I go to ride till I die die
I’ll climb higher, top of the world I itched for
No biggie if I were to fall, I’m antifragile antifragile
Right now I’m on my way, toss away your fairy tale
Now you know my name
I’m antifragile antifragile
Anti ti ti ti fragile fragile
Anti ti ti ti fragile
Anti ti ti ti fragile fragile
Antifragile antifragile
We can break it baby
Rock it twist it lock it baby
All I know is you can’t chain me
‘Cause I’m gonna break out gonna gonna break out out
We can break it baby
Rock it twist it lock it baby
All I know is you can’t chain me
'Cause I’m gonna break out gonna gonna break out out
I’ll climb higher, top of the world I itched for
No biggie if I were to fall, I’m antifragile antifragile
Right now I’m on my way, toss away your fairy tale
Now you know my name
I’m antifragile antifragile
Anti ti ti ti fragile fragile
Anti ti ti ti fragile
Anti ti ti ti fragile fragile
Antifragile antifragile
