[English]

We go!

Wake up, open your eyes now

In this fake blessing

I wanna be wanna be on my way, I bet

Boundaries holding me in

To hell with your rules

I wanna be wanna I, way, I bet

I thought it was out, flame of summer burning in me

This property that tamed me with sweet lips

Luxury draped on my body, blinding me like a blue pill

Tell me, do I get blessed or do I get cursed?

I just want to know

Victory inherited, secret hiding behind the stage lights

I was dancing in the marionette's square

Don’t wanna stay, cuz now I realize the truth

Calls me, calls me from far away

Let's go

Just stop, don't tell me what to do

Curse like a medal

In this curse, I'll be ok, no pain, no pain

Liar beyond that light, we fade in to reality

Between these lies, we dive into this real life

And I walk like a lion, I’m making my own history

I don’t know answers, I just go my own way

Goes on and on

Wake up, open your eyes now

In this fake blessing

I wanna be wanna be on my way, I bet

Boundaries holding me in

To hell with your rules

I wanna be wanna I, way, I bet

I don't want, I don't want

A zero score answer

Now I won’t forget

That lie that broke my wings

Don’t wanna miss, cuz what I still am and still breathing

Calls me, calls me from far away

Let's go

Just stop, don't tell me what to do

Curse like a medal

In this curse, I'll be ok, no pain, no pain

Liar beyond that light, we fade in to reality

Between these lies, we dive into this real life

And I walk like a lion, I’m making my own history

I don’t know answers, I just go my own way

Goes on and on

Wake up, open your eyes now

In this fake blessing

I wanna be wanna be on my way, I bet

Boundaries holding me in

To hell with your rules

I wanna be wanna I, way, I bet
