Catrame (Piano Solo) Lyrics in English by Lazza, ELODIE, Tedua
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Catrame (Piano Solo) by Lazza from Italian to English.
Non mi chiamare 'genio'
Don't call me a "genius"
I geni muoiono giovani
Geniuses die young
Non ne hai idea dell'impegno a rincorrerm
You have no idea how much effort it takes to chase me
Niente mano di Dio che per noi non esiste Anno Domini
No Hand of God, 'cause for us there's no Anno Domini
Dimmi 'Zzala, puoi stare tranquillo, anche quest'anno domini'
Tell me, "Zzala, you can relax, you dominate this year too"
Pensieri scomodi
Uncomfortable thoughts
Tu che guardi una comedy
You, watching a comedy
Non puoi usare parole da uomini
You can't use grown-man words
Io col ghiaccio nel cuore che, no
Me with ice in my heart that, no
Non si scioglie nemmeno se allaccio il Montgomery
It doesn't melt even if I fasten my duffle coat
Stavo in mezzo alla strada, recovery
I was out in the street, in recovery
Mo ti fisso in silenzio, sei bella, dannata
Now I stare at you in silence, you're beautiful, damned
E vivi in bianco e nero, Mercoledì
And you live in black and white, Wednesday
Tu mi hai visto bambino, quando ancora fallivo
You saw me as a kid, when I was still failing
Ora quando mi ascolti da Spoti' o dal vivo
Now when you listen to me on Spotify or live
Pensi 'Questa è l'America' come Gambino
You think, "This is America" like Gambino
La mia vita ti pesa , anche se non lo dici
My life weighs on you, even if you don't say it
Delle volte un accento fa la differenza
Sometimes an accent makes the difference
Non esistono principi senza principi
There are no princes without principles
Ma c'ho le mie radici
But I've got my roots
Vorrei casa a Parigi
I'd like a place in Paris
Per andarci ogni tanto, tu che ne dici?
To go there every now and then, what do you say?
Cerco ancora il mio posto nel mondo
I'm still looking for my place in the world
Come chi nasce per sbaglio
Like someone who's born by mistake
Qualche volta mi serve
Sometimes I need
Non pensare a me stesso
To not think about myself
Fare un giro all'inferno
To take a trip to hell
Prima che i miei ideali siano morti di freddo, ehi
Before my ideals have frozen to death, hey
Sono con te però
I'm with you though
Non devi farmi male
You can't hurt me
Se sarò Cerbero
If I'm Cerberus
Verrai con me nell'Ade
You'll come with me to Hades
Pensieri come katane
Thoughts like katanas
Siamo fiori nel catrame
We're flowers in the tar
A me non ci so badare
I don't know how to take care of myself
Tu non hai niente da dire
You have nothing to say
Io ho ancora molto da dare
I still have a lot to give
In strada con il culo sopra un mezzo che fa fumo
In the street with my *ss on a ride that's smoking
Quando sgasa, la tua invidia
When it revs, so does your envy
Ora mangiati la polvere mia
Now eat my dust
Non smontarmi i piani
Don't wreck my plans
Non affronta il domani
The one who gives you props won't face tomorrow
Chi ti propsa, ma dimostra una bugia tra le mani, ok
But shows a lie in his hands, okay
Corro contro un guard rail
I run into a guardrail
Torno storto da lei
I come back to her messed up
Prendo sonno alle sei (uuh)
I fall asleep at six (uuh)
Non ricordo, ma sai
I don't remember, but you know
Ho bevuto assai
I drank a lot
Con le canne nelle tasche dalle guardie scappai
With joints in my pockets I ran away from the cops
Tedua, Lazza fuma e non te la passa
Tedua, Lazza smokes and doesn't pass it to you
Il flow tuo una mela marcia
Your flow's a rotten apple
Dicci chi se la mangia
Tell us who eats it
Non puoi farmi a pezzi
You can't tear me to pieces
Pompon sul mio Fendi
Pom-pom on my Fendi
Sei in fissa e su Insta
You're obsessed with Insta
Mi segui come Tom con Jerry
You follow me like Tom does Jerry
Bitch vuole il mio PIN per leggere I messaggi
B*tch wants my PIN to read the messages
Se non crede a chi ha davanti
If she doesn't believe who's in front of her
Un film, che vivo nel feat
A movie, this feature I'm living
Che scrivo al PC
That I write on my PC
Esigo un feedback positivo
I demand positive feedback
Beh, finché corri primo, Glimow
Well, as long as you stay first, Glimow
Sono con te però
I'm with you though
Non devi farmi male
You can't hurt me
Se sarò Cerbero
If I'm Cerberus
Verrai con me nell'Ade
You'll come with me to Hades
Pensieri come katane
Thoughts like katanas
Siamo fiori nel catrame
We're flowers in the tar
A me non ci so badare
I don't know how to take care of myself
Tu non hai niente da dire
You have nothing to say
Io ho ancora molto da dare
I still have a lot to give

Catrame literally translates to "tar". It's an evocative and somewhat gritty word that stands out in the lyrics, especially as it's part of the song's title.
In the song, Lazza uses the powerful metaphor "Siamo fiori nel catrame" (We are flowers in the tar). This phrase beautifully captures the struggle and resilience of growing and thriving in a harsh, difficult environment, making it a memorable and thought-provoking word choice.
