Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

忍我一味忍

Endure, just keep enduring

一再抑鬱 屈了半膝 心裏有戰爭

Repressed again, bending my knee, a war inside

皮肉都抖震

My skin and flesh tremble

期望搞清楚 所以我想 發問

Hoping to understand, so I want to ask

點解要聽你聽過啲乜

Why must I listen to what you've heard?

點解要跟你分享得失

Why must I share my gains and losses with you?

點解一定要有反應

Why must there be a reaction?

點解心情要跟你甦醒

Why must my mood awaken with you?

(點解) 問 點解 就要我答

(Why) Asking, why must I answer?

(點解) 點解唔跟嗰啲所謂分寸

(Why) Why not follow those so-called rules?

(點解) 答 極都唔合格

(Why) Answering, still failing

(點解) 又要答嗰啲垃圾

(Why) Still having to answer that garbage

難道為外面廢話幾句 受罪

Must I suffer for a few words of nonsense from the outside world?

就算他始終不閉嘴

Even if they never shut up

現在亦無所顧慮

Now I have no worries

(Keep Rollin’ Rollin’)

(Keep Rollin’ Rollin’)

(Keep Rollin')

不要不聽不說不會把脊椎扭曲

Don't twist my spine by not listening, not speaking, not knowing

不折不扣不退不悔不願受侮辱

Absolutely, no retreat, no regret, unwilling to be insulted

不怕不對只怕今次又全面屈服

Not afraid of being wrong, just afraid of total surrender this time

不需約束 不給壓縮

No need for restraint, no compression

不聽你 只聽我 即使折福

I won't listen to you, only to myself, even if it brings misfortune

想我好 想我照做

Wanting me to be good, wanting me to do as I'm told

所以要企好 大改我構造

So stand firm, drastically change my structure

不准我多投訴

Not allowed to complain

現在就地示範談吐

Now, a demonstration of speech on the spot

習慣落一個維度 去消化 外間憤怒

Habitually falling into a dimension to digest external anger

大眾睇唔到 就係我冇做 時間令我 明白呢種 控訴太多提告

The public doesn't see it, so I didn't do it, time makes me understand, this kind of accusation has too many lawsuits

來自視野 太多太多 羊群反射

Coming from perspective, too much, herd mentality

慢慢寫 慢慢計 慢慢數 心諗收聲 喂 唔該借孭 多謝

Slowly write, slowly calculate, slowly count, thinking shut up, hey, please lend a shoulder, thank you

人類活着但願不需似玩具

Humans live hoping not to be like toys

為了生出新的壯舉

To create new feats

逆著路無所畏懼

Fearless against the current

不需約束 不給壓縮

No need for restraint, no compression

不聽你 只聽我 即使折福

I won't listen to you, only to myself, even if it brings misfortune

別人在閑話

Others are gossiping

就由別人盡情造假

Let others fabricate as they please

讓時日流逝

Let time flow

自然就能摘除謊話

Naturally, the lies will be removed

你說 會妥協改變 就沒謾罵

You say, compromise and change, then there will be no more insults

回家休息 少講廢話

Go home and rest, talk less nonsense
