【長靴妖姬】Not my father's son 非父真傳


(Lola)
when i was just a kid
everything i did, was to be like him
under my skin
my father always thought
if i was strong and fought
not like some albatross, id begin
to fit in

當我小小年紀
做每件事情
都想模仿他
打從心裡
父親總是希冀
若我夠強壯
打起架來不會像弱雞

我就能夠
適應
look at me powerless and holding my breath
trying hard to repress what scared him to death
it was not that easy to be his type of man
to breathe freely was not in his plan

看我這樣無力,屏住呼吸
試圖壓抑,讓他不再恐懼
當他那種男人一點也不容易
自由呼吸不在計畫裡

and the best part of me
is what he wouldn't see
I'm not my fathers son
I'm not the image of what he dreamed of
with the strength of sparta and the patience of Job

然而我的優點
他卻無法看見
我不是他真傳
我不符他期待
我沒有他想要的堅韌和強悍


still couldn't be the one
to echo what he'd done
and mirror what was not in me
so i jumped in my dreams and found an escape
仍然無法成為
向他看齊的人
或去模仿我不是的人
所以我縱身躍入夢中,找到出口


maybe i went to extremes of leather and lace
but the world seems brighter 6 inches off the ground
and the air seemed lighter
i was profound and i felt so proud

或許我對皮件和蕾絲過於狂熱
但這世界再高六吋就光明四射
空氣都變得輕盈
心中踏實我如此驕傲


just to live out loud
I'm not my fathers son
I'm not image of what he dreamed of
with the strength of sparta and the patience of Job
still couldn't be the one
to echo what he'd done
and mirror what was not
in me

為了大聲而活
我不是他真傳
我不符他期待
我沒有他想要的堅韌和強悍


the endless story of expectations wiring inside my mind
wore me down
i came to a realization and i found a way to turn it around
to see
that i could just be me

期許如無盡故事纏繞心中
將我耗盡
我終於醒悟並且找到出路
看見
我可以就做我自己
