Presi Male Lyrics in English by Michele Bravi, Mahmood
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Presi Male by Michele Bravi from Italian to English.
Siamo rimasti sotto i titoli di coda di un film
We stayed under the end credits of a film
Sotto un cielo con più stelle di Beverly Hills
Under a sky with more stars than Beverly Hills
Siamo rimasti vestiti solo di paure e lividi
We stayed dressed only in fears and bruises
Come se uno come me non avesse sbagliato mai
As if someone like me had never made a mistake
Vuoi sapere la verità
Do you want to know the truth
Anche se siamo fuori dal locale
Even though we're outside the club
Tu bevi gin e stai sul cellulare
You drink gin and you're on your phone
A questo gioco non ci sai giocare
You don't know how to play this game
Cosa litighiamo a fare, siamo nati presi male
What are we fighting for, we were born messed up
Come pioggia tropicale, come sabbia senza mare
Like tropical rain, like sand without a sea
Cosa litighiamo a fare, siamo nati presi male
What are we fighting for, we were born messed up
Come i gatti sotto a un temporale, solo io e te
Like cats under a storm, just you and me
Sotto al temporale
Under the storm
Siamo rimasti a rincorrere l'amore in Autogrill
We stayed chasing love in an Autogrill
Lontano dal caos metropolitano
Far from the metropolitan chaos
Lontano dalla noia di Milano
Far from the boredom of Milan
Vuoi sapere la verità
Do you want to know the truth
Anche se so che ci farà un po' male
Even though I know it will hurt us a bit
Mentiamo sempre in modo originale
We always lie in an original way
Su questo cuore non ci puoi sputare
You can't spit on this heart
Cosa litighiamo a fare, siamo nati presi male
What are we fighting for, we were born messed up
Come pioggia tropicale, come sabbia senza mare
Like tropical rain, like sand without a sea
Cosa litighiamo a fare, siamo nati presi male
What are we fighting for, we were born messed up
Come i gatti sotto a un temporale, solo io e te
Like cats under a storm, just you and me
Sotto al temporale
Under the storm
E anche il problema non c'è
And there's no problem
Noi ce lo cerchiamo
We look for it
Non a caso noi siamo casi umani
It's no coincidence we're human cases
È per questo che c'assomigliamo
That's why we're alike
Quando beviamo diventiamo molesti
When we drink we become annoying
Essere uguali, ma sentirsi diversi
To be alike, but to feel different
Da chi non sa niente di noi
From those who don't know anything about us
Siamo stati di tutto, ma mai degli eroi
We've been everything, but never heroes
Cosa litighiamo a fare, siamo nati presi male
What are we fighting for, we were born messed up
Come pioggia tropicale, come sabbia senza mare
Like tropical rain, like sand without a sea
Cosa litighiamo a fare, siamo nati presi male
What are we fighting for, we were born messed up
Come i gatti sotto a un temporale, solo io e te
Like cats under a storm, just you and me
Sotto al temporale
Under the storm
Balliamo male fino a perdere i sensi
We dance badly until we lose consciousness
E ci guardiamo ma con gli occhi assenti
And we look at each other but with absent eyes
Balliamo male fino a perdere i sensi
We dance badly until we lose consciousness
E ci guardiamo ma con gli occhi assenti
And we look at each other but with absent eyes
Balliamo male fino a perdere i sensi
We dance badly until we lose consciousness
E ci guardiamo ma con gli occhi assenti
And we look at each other but with absent eyes
Balliamo male fino a perdere i sensi
We dance badly until we lose consciousness
E ci guardiamo ma con gli occhi assenti
And we look at each other but with absent eyes
Balliamo male fino a perdere i sensi
We dance badly until we lose consciousness
E ci guardiamo ma con gli occhi assenti
And we look at each other but with absent eyes
Balliamo male fino a perdere i sensi
We dance badly until we lose consciousness
E ci guardiamo ma con gli occhi assenti
And we look at each other but with absent eyes

presi male — badly taken / messed up
Presi male is an idiomatic expression that literally translates to "badly taken" or "taken badly." However, in common Italian slang, it means to be messed up, in a bad state, or to have started off on the wrong foot.
In the context of the song, the phrase "siamo nati presi male" (we were born messed up) suggests a sense of inherent flaw or misfortune from the very beginning. It's a unique and evocative way to describe a troubled relationship or a predisposition to difficulties, making it a memorable and interesting phrase for learners.
